I’m returning to TEDx Surrey — but this time, not as a speaker. The tables have turned! After standing on that iconic red dot in 2024, delivering my talk, “Is There More to Silence Than Just Silence?” I’m now stepping into a new role as a speaker coach. It’s a full-circle moment — from being the one on stage to the one cheering from the sidelines. I’m honoured to help new speakers find their voice, refine their message, and share their ideas with clarity and confidence.

September feels like a second New Year we didn’t ask for — but might secretly need. Easing back into routine doesn’t have to be rigid or overwhelming. Small shifts, self-compassion, and mindful rhythms can help you reset with more presence and less stress.

Feeling stressed and overwhelmed? Here’s a funny, relatable story about the day I was so burnt out from overworking that I accidentally tossed my socks into the toilet instead of the laundry basket. That soggy moment became my wake-up call to slow down, rest, and take control of my stress before life spiralled further. Discover how a simple moment of humour and self-awareness helped me begin a journey back to balance, focus, and mindful living.

For me, mindfulness is not a single technique, action, or thought, it is a way of being.

What if success isn’t about doing more, but about becoming more aligned with who you truly are? In From Choosing to Creating, I share how one mindful word changed everything—and how slowing down led me not just to clarity, but to creation. It’s a story of letting go, tuning in, and redefining what it means to thrive. If you've been feeling that quiet tug for something more meaningful, this is your invitation to pause... and listen.

Mindfulness helps us stay calm and confident in high-pressure moments, turning unexpected challenges into opportunities for success.

A pause isn’t a stop—it’s a powerful reset. It’s about embracing moments of stillness to reset, reflect, and reconnect.

Mindfulness shifts procrastination from avoidance to awareness.

Today I celebrate my greyness and the freedom it has given me to once again, embrace change and live a life of truth.

How can a seemingly secular-scientific, mental health-improving, process called Mindfulness be compared with hand-knitting a pair of socks?
