Recent things clients have said to me mid-Voxer chat* over the last few weeks, Reader
​

  • Wow, look at the moon - so yes, of course I went straight to my front door to step outside and see for myself
    ​
  • I'm not sure how woo you are, but can I share a story with you - I am so woo - please hit me anytime with your best Woo Stories
    ​
  • My two-year-old would like to say hello now - Tiny humans and furry companions are all welcome to join in and have their moment to be heard.

​
I used to think I needed to hide things about me that could make me seem unreliable or unprofessional - like needing to work around my health conditions, caring responsibilities, and occasional volunteer wildlife rescues.

And now I know the more I share these things, the more likely I am to attract my 'look at the moon' crowd who are an absolute joy to work with.
​

Is there anything you're keeping quiet about yourself?

(* not sure what a Voxer-chat is? It's explained here.)
