I just had the luxury of spending a week in Arizona where I combined work and pleasure.

Here’s a shout-out to all my sistahs across the globe on International Women’s Day…today is the day to:
Remember and embrace your power
Celebrate yourself and women everywhere across the world for being the incredibly powerful, beautiful, and fabulous beings that we are
Pass your own message of hope and inspiration to those adorable women-in-training who look up to you to pass on the torch which will guide them on the rocky road to womanhood
Dance, sing, paint, do yoga, or whatever creative, soul-stirring activity reminds you of how amazing it is to be a woman- in this body, at this age, at this time…
And finally, to have a laugh (or cry) at watching the current James Bond pay homage to International Women’s Day….click below to enjoy!

Although I’m not quite sure how it happened, I turned 39 this year. This came as a huge shock as I remember my 20’s so vividly- as if they were yesterday. It seems to me that once you hit 20, the process of ageing accelerates exponentially until you’ve barely gotten used to the decade you’re currently in and no sooner-whoosh! – It disappears in a flash of lightening and you’re propelled (or catapulted as it often feels) into the next decade kicking and screaming all the way.
