Sometimes out hearts can become heavy. Mine has been over the last couple of weeks. Here are a few reflections on how to keep leading with a heavy heart. 

If you are trying to change people for the better, you might believe you are doing it out of love right? Wrong. Love is unconditional. Drop your desire to change people. Instead love them unconditionally. People grow where they are loved.

Happy Monday. I share a few reflections from our time at a football tournament this weekend. Does pressure get the better if you or the best of you. Does losing leave you bitter or does it make you better?

Let's not make enemies of fear, hopelessness, anger, frustration and despair. Instead, honour your heart, learn to dance under all weathers, and love yourself back to joy. 

The ego doesn't want to be healed, it wants to be held.
