Wow! Thank you so much. When I received the email in my inbox from Soul and Spirit magazine saying I’d won an award, I have to be honest I was a little shocked. I knew a few people were behind me in the voting process and I was so deeply grateful to have been nominated in two categories but to have actually won an award was so amazing.

“Women are like teabags: you never know how strong they are until you put them in hot water” said first lady Eleanor Roosevelt. Luckily we are passed the times when women had to be more determined than ever to be heard.

Have you ever found yourself in a position where you feel physically and emotionally drained whilst looking after people that might be struggling physically and emotionally? If you found yourself in this kind of situation you may feel a natural instinct to want to avoid these kind of circumstances.

Have you ever compromised doing what is right for you because you fear what will happen if you don’t?
Yup, I relate too. So many times in life I found myself saying yes and I really wanted to say no. I would often make decisions purely based on fear. Fearing that if I did what I truly wanted to do (which would often involve saying no 🙈) people would think less of me, judge and criticise me.

I will never forget the look on the nurse’s face when she walked in to the hospital room and was expecting to see an elderly woman in her 80s. Instead she saw me, a young woman aged 43. She said “But you are too young for a total hip replacement!” and I could tell she was gutted for me. I had been suffering for sometime with my hip pain.

What do you do when you feel like you have no voice…
My dear friends, many of us have been faced with countless times in our life where we have felt completely voiceless in a situation. I’m sure you would agree that people can be really challenging at times and without the right tools to help us navigate through some of the stormy waters of relationships we can end up feeling helpless, defenceless and weak.

What is this thing called stress anyway?
An important factor to remember at all times is that stress in normal. Doesn’t mean it feels good though does it! Everybody at some point experiences feelings of stress. Stress is often triggered by major life changes, such as death of a loved one, relationship breakups, financial pressures, expectations from friends, family and/or work, the pressure we put on ourselves, loss of any kind and many more.
