Men’s Health On My Mind

Ever since I was asked for my thoughts on a number of ingredients used by the food industry for a men’s health magazine, I’ve had men’s health on my mind! I didn’t blog about men’s health during National Men’s Health Week (13th to 19th of June) so it seems appropriate to share my thoughts (two really) now while they are fresh.

Havering Women in Business

Conference on Health

CCLI had the pleasure of speaking at a health conference organised by three of my clients: the Commonweallth Countries League in partnership with the British Heart Foundation and Diabetes UK. Hosted by the Trinidad & Tobago High Commission, the aim of the conference was to create awareness on specific health concerns affecting people from Commonwealth countries.

My presentation was on eating well for health and wellbeing and I injected some humour based on the current horse meat scandal. Incidentally, during

Succeeding in Life

Success is simply being the best ‘you’ you can be, and in the process, you fulfil your life’s purpose. As you journey on in life it’s vital to evaluate along the way. Here are three points to consider:

  • If your past achievements still look big to you, then you’ve not done much today.

Celebrate your past accomplishments but don’t be so dazzled by them that you forget to focus and work towards future accomplishments.
