Someone recently told me they don’t believe balance is achievable. I beg to differ!  🤓 When I search for definitions of BALANCE, words like “remain upright”, “steady” and “does not fall” come up. ☝️ This is the goal of the Better To Be Human Balance Sheet!

It is important for me to be a certified coach. Honestly, the certification is as much for my personal satisfaction as it is for others (though companies do prefer to hire certified coaches, ensuring they have undergone formal training from an accredited provider).

I have to admit, I wasn’t entirely sure what […]

5 Learnings From 2023

Wow, can you believe 2023 has come and gone? Personally, it’s been an unexpected journey, but an awesome one at that! I’ve always enjoyed reflecting on the past, in general. What’s even more enjoyable is when I have those moments when I get to say to myself, “Damn, I’m way stronger than I thought. Look […]

Why are we scared of change when it can be good for us?

Having a routine is comforting. We know what to expect and it feels safe. A colleague/friend of my friend once called me “predictable,” and at first, I was kind of offended. We laughed about it later because, deep down, I knew she was right. Even though I like the idea of being adventurous and spontaneous, […]
