The Damsel's Blog

Here you can find all my blog articles in chronological order, where I write about different aspects of thriving again after big life challenges:

I highlight different types of life storm, and what they may look like
I reflect on how storms affect us as leaders at work
I discuss some of the stages of the journey we may go through as we navigate our storms, using my SING model
I showcase particular wellbeing tools which can help us, and how we can get the most benefit from them

If you'd like me to let you know when I publish a new blog post, please sign up for Lighthouse Letters, my regular newsletter - it would be wonderful to welcome you into the community!
