Today I had the fortune of listening to Lorraine Murphy speaking about her second book Getting Remarkably Organised. I say fortunate because I’ve heard her before and she is amazing. The way she breaks everything down into implementable principles, shares her story,... read more

This blog entry is an odd one to pen; I’m currently tying up some loose ends as my contract with The Grow Project is coming to an end and I’ve been tasked with writing one last post. Do you ever Google definitions? Of course you do, you probably read my blog post on... read more

There is something to be said for people who arrive at the office early, stay late and eat their lunch at their desk while scrolling through emails. Are you thinking dedicated? I was thinking disorganised. I’m usually in the office three days a week; as I live out of... read more

Imagine your alarm goes off – it’s Friday and it’s 7:30am. You sit up and freak out, you start work in 30 minutes! You should have been up two and a half hours ago. Then your heartbeat slows as you remember, you work from home today. You enjoy a relaxed shower,... read more

Something had fallen out of alignment for me. I wasn’t sure quite what it was, but as I was endeavouring to scale in the shortest possible time, the pressure was mounting. I was increasing my hours, putting pressure on the foundations of my business and my... read more

My name is Jess and I am a Googler. What’s that? I’m glad you asked. You see, I am not one to settle for a simple “I don’t know” and while I know many of us turn to the ol’ faithful search engine when we can’t remember whatshisface who was in that movie with the... read more

You know the expression, good enough is good enough? I see the merit in this for some areas of life – when I’m cleaning and can’t move the couch by myself so I just vacuum around it? Good enough is good enough. But when putting together content you don’t just... read more

Many would suggest it doesn’t. I would definitely propose it does. Now don’t get me wrong here, I’m a rather fast paced kind of gal, willing to invest in a well measured risk, so I’m not talking about changing the pace of my life entirely. Broadly speaking, I like to... read more

There’s a funny thing about writing a blog I had never considered. The inspiration for the posts doesn’t usually come when you’re set up at your desk with a cup of tea and a blank Word document in front of you. For me, it’s on a reflective walk at dusk or brushing my... read more

Because they’d be mad if they didn’t have a coach, and yet we have an issue with coaches in our lives. Admittedly there is a lot of bad coaches out of there. It’s also a space I understand and have worked in for a number of periods of time, and it showed me what it... read more

I still find it incredible that each time I write or create something, like a blog post, a chapter of a new book or a program, I find others coming and talking to me about that exact topic within days, sometimes within hours. This week, it has definitely... read more

Four days into my new adventure with The Grow Project, there were a few things I had learned; get some sleep. Eat breakfast. Always take notes. Be ready to jump in with two feet. While Rebecca has spent three years creating The Grow Project, building relationships,... read more

Vulnerability is not a word I use often. A quick Google search of the word ‘vulnerable’ brings up the definition “exposed to the possibility of being attacked or harmed, either physically or emotionally” – definitely not my go-to state of being. Who am I? I’m a... read more

I saw Brene was coming to Sydney town. I didn’t know much about her, but I’d heard her name, heard she knew a heap about vulnerability, and thought it’d be a perfect event for my crew from The Grow Project and I to take a chance on. I... read more

One of the things I’m blown away by in motherhood is the rate of learning, observation and opportunity to make change. It’s so fast. Maybe this is one of the reasons I am so impressed by it! Yesterday I was so exhausted I could barely keep my eyes open while having... read more

And that is only going to happen when you take massive action. Also, get more books into you. Get onto audible or something similar, and download audio books. You can listen to ten minutes here or there, it’s a great use of your time in between things, and also... read more
