Rant rant rant grumble grumble blah blah blah… No joke… Social media is a cesspool for negative content these days and I am struggling to breathe in the sea of hate, anger and frustration spewing on my feed. So much so, I have again utilised the only tool I have in my arsenal to combat […]

Love it or hate it, 2020 is a year that has encompassed mass change that has caused positive and negative outcomes for everyone in the world. For me… My entire professional life was flipped upside down and I have made a change to my life that has put me in control of my future and […]
