My friend Jane D gently chided me when she discovered I had yet to populate my ‘Inspire’ Tab. Truth is, I had so many beautiful pieces I’d collected over the years from which to choose, selecting something sufficiently profound became the challenge. A sleepless night, 3am…inspiration!

Inspire?
“Oh, the comfort, the inexpressible comfort of feeling safe with a person, having neither to weigh thoughts nor measure words, but pouring them all out, just as they are, chaff and grain together, certain that a faithful hand will take and sift them, keep what is worth keeping, and with a breath of kindness blow the rest away.”
George Eliot
Thankyou George for providing the essence of my Blog so eloquently. Having collected inspirational, funny, moving and profound quotes over the years, selecting ones to include in cards to special people, others to make Facebook friends smile…well why not share them all? I hope my quotes, stories and chats about the arts, theater, music and literature will ‘Inspire’ you.
Challenge? Movie critiques in 10 words or less…
Earn?
A satisfying and rewarding career is essential to one’s wellbeing given we devote a good portion of our 168 hours per week to earning a crust. I found mine at the tender age of 45 and now have the pleasure of helping others find theirs.
The bulk of my work involves career transition counselling…not the George Clooney equivalent from the movie ‘Up in the Air’ as many assume…instead, helping those who’ve experienced retrenchment to identify future options, then develop their marketing tools accordingly.
Job search requires an effective marketing strategy, strong social media presence, solid networking skills and the confidence to sell one’s self in the market place. Here’s where I plan to share hints and tips that may help you maintain your rewarding career…enjoy!
