Prior to this my only way of managing my work and growing my business was the work harder, longer, faster paradigm, resulting […]

And I’m wanting to unpack what helped me achieved that! One way or another I’ve wanted to climb Carrauntoohil for over 20 years and I’m feeling

Some of you may remember a hike I shared about doing in December 2019. For my level of fitness it was an ambitious hike (4 hours plus up a fairly steep incline) and the ascent being done in darkness! All part of my celebration of the winter solstice that year. I found it challenging and
