Yes, it’s that time of year: the tinsel is out, carols are playing and countdown clocks with the number of days until Christmas, popping up everywhere. Like you could forget!
It’s also the time of year when I get reflective and grateful.
It’s been a very exciting year, with repeat business with existing clients, lots of fantastic new clients, and great gigs that have had me travelling all over the world and doing work I love with people I love.
Of course, none of this would have been possible without my clients, mentors, writer’s group, and family and friends.
Many, many thanks for your support, the opportunities, the learning, the laughs, the referrals and so much more. It’s much appreciated and a high note to end the year on. Group Hug.🤗
As we wrap up this chapter and eagerly unwrap the gift of 2025 (can you believe it’s almost here?), I want to extend warm wishes to each of you.
Very Happy Christmas and I hope your festive season is merry, safe and filled with the warmth of shared moments.😊
Here’s to a New Year filled with exciting possibilities, continued growth, and more shared stories.
I am looking forward to reconnecting in the New Year!

With this book, learn new and commercially savvy alternatives that will help you deliver outstanding results in the modern workplace. Influencing others isn’t magic – it’s a skill that you can make work for you.
