Do you know you are brilliant, but still find you don’t get hired often enough? That’s one of the reasons I developed the Miracle Brand programme. I have seen and experienced this: So many great people (including me!) doing brilliant work but at times not being hired often enough to make their contribution to people’s lives and to the good of the world. We have found it hard to take the work we were born to do out into the world in a way that people resonate with it and see it as the answer to their prayers. ...

"Your Miracle Brand is the way you find your own sovereignty and take all that youare and all that you have learned and share it powerfully in the world." The next inspired project I have been birthing is Miracle Brands – love is the lost powerful force in business – I am writing the book on it now, and have my first weekend on it in April – click here to find out what you’ll learn.

Nine things that I found fascinating and inspiring on set at Downton Abbey When I was seven years old, I removed the back of our family’s transistor radio to see what was there, and was fascinated by what was behind the pretty veneer. That was the beginning of my life-long fascination with understanding “How things work.” I love seeing behind the scenes, and may explain part of my fascination with inspiration, metaphysics and psychology. Whenever I see something great and successful, I am always cur...

It’s been a while since I wrote on my blog, as I have been ill, but am now surfacing again. At the beginning of November 2012, I was in Khartoum giving a closing keynote speech at a conference on micro-finance. As I prepared to return home I felt a little tired and ill and within two days of returning home, I collapsed with a streaming cold and had to take to my bed. When my chest infection didn’t clear I went to my doctor and he gave me some antibiotics to help, which I reluctantly took. I went away fo...

I have been following the Artists Way for the last fifteen years and in February 2011 I was thrilled to spend a weekend with Julia Cameron in London at her Creativity Bootcamp in London. It was a wonderfully nourishing and affirming weekend for me. I was very fortunate enough to spend a few minutes chatting to Julia at that event, and you can see that conversation here. Well, Julia was back in London this last weekend October 27/28th, and I enjoyed the weekend again, feeling news levels of my cre...

I believe that being seen and feeling honoured is a fundamental human need. It is one of the great gifts of authentic community that we see, acknowledge and bless each other and our gifts. We probably all have memories of someone who we felt really “saw us and got us.” Today, we don’t have many environments where we experience this, and often tend to compete rather than honour. Honouring was certainly not a great part of my growing up. I often felt unseen and unacknowledged. When I feel seen and honoured a...

This month sees thirteen years since The Work we Were Born To Do was published. I am shocked! It seems just a short while ago that I became an author, and now I have been one for thirteen years. This milestone was invitation for me to pause and reflect on what I had experienced and learned. I set out a new vision for work and its place in our lives and that vision has resonated with thousands of people. Being an author has been one of the greatest privileges of my life. Many books have changed my life, and my...
