I have mentioned previously how your past can impact on your present and future, because you create belief systems around money where you either have money as a friend, and like a friend it will help and support you. Or money is seen as the enemy, one that causes you to experience pain through its [...]
Your Money Script
Have you ever wondered why some people have money, whereas others don’t? It is often said those that have money are born with a “silver spoon in their mouth”. Whilst that may have been true years ago, it is not necessarily so any more. There are more millionaires being made yearly than ever before. Why [...]

When speaking with women I am often told they need my services because they haven’t done anything about planning for their retirement. It is a huge source of worry for them. In my last post I have mentioned about having a second income and women are exceedingly good at multi-tasking, including managing a full time [...]

Mindset
I went shopping on Saturday for the last of the Christmas presents I had to get. I went to a garden centre, but it does so much more than plants, they even have Santa and 4 of his reindeers. It was great to see the children enjoying all the Christmas decorations and the reindeers, while [...]
