Hello it is time to post a new Cheat Sheet. They are free to download and print and post every Monday accept UK Bank Holidays and this week it is all about the Enjoyments of life.
It can be full of rollercoasters is life and you never know really what is going to happen each day. It is good to do things that help create good days and getting the most out of it, as much as possible.
It is good to go for walks. One of my colleagues on Epsom Hospital Radio does Walking Football and my brother does Walking Rugby. I like to do courses, read books and go for a coffee with my son and Swimming. The little things are just as good as the big things in life and life is about living.

Doing a Autumn Reset, helps to Reshape everything. If you have tasks that are unfinished and tasks that you’ve not had a chance to do, because of the school holidays then now is the right time and focus on few things and what is the most important to you right now.
If you are having a make over in your home then why not invite friends or family over to help. As a kid whenever we decorated, our home, one of my cousins would help.
Once you go through the items that you want to complete but, like if you decide that the colour paint you wanted has changed, then change it and get a paint chart. One of mine is filming for my other channels. So going to arrange filming in another room.
Perhaps do some filming outside the home and want to improve them.
If there are items that you not able to change or work on, then fine you can go back to it at another time.
I go through what I can do rather than what I can’t do and go through what is the first steps can I take to change the areas of my life that isn’t working and often you may find that you have to start over again.
If it is relationship and your not seeing enough of each other, set a day aside one a month or once a week to go out. A change of environment can do wonders. My husband and I would book a day before Christmas and go to the Southbank, as they often have stalls, then visit Borough Market and have some Winter Cider or Mulled Wine.
Or you want to see a member of your family more often. Find their contact details and make the effort to call them and send a text to ask if they can chat and it is simple tasks that can really help get your juices flowing, to do such tasks, as we can get so stuck with life that we forget the things that can really help you get back on track if you feel your not socialising enough.
I tried many ways to do regularly exercise after I had my son. I started to get up early whilst my husband and son was a sleep and work out. Now I workout in the afternoons and often my son will join me, this is a great time to set some Autumn Goals to help with doing an Autumn Reset. I found that it is the right time and do about 5 to 10 minutes. Not everyday, but twice a week or so.
Once you set it out you find it is easy to Reshape and the one thing I find useful is doing a Mind map. I do this often and it really helps make sure I am on the right path, to finally get projects finished.
Have a schedule, be flexible if other things crop up and why not do a family reset if you want to use the Autumn Reset to spend more time with your kids. So get back into having a weekly family meal and now the schools are opened it means homework, so create if you join me in doing an Autumn reset, do a homework plan so that it is done on time and not rushed and have a family meeting to go through planning with your kids, of getting homework completed.
There are no rules to it and you can start at the beginning of Autumn or during. Ir is up to you and if it helps you, keep a diary or a journal to reflect on how it is going and if you finding something difficult and adjust as you do This year’s Autumn Reset.
I glad for your feedback and if you have tips on doing a Autumn Reset then please share. You can write in the comment section below. You can subscribe if you want to be notified when I post on this site and will never miss one.

Welcome it is time for my AUTUMN RESET and been so looking forward to it.
It is time to get those projects finished, setting up for the next season and taking time out.
I won’t be vlogging my reset and focus on my other two Channels, which is part of what I want to do for this Autumn reset. I will do have vlogs to upload from Summer and then I will be taking a month off once those vlogs go out.
I do have a printable. It is free to download and print and to help you if you want to join me in this RESET.
I will working on a Book I am writing, completing my Son and I’s room and doing a declutter and been doing this during the summer but want to complete it and have more space.
Hello! So it is that time again. I am sharing my monthly Newsletter for August 2025. I am sharing what I have been doing so far in the Summer Holidays and what is coming up within my content. And before that, Just to let you know, my book Mum&Me book 1, is available to for you to read. It is available in Kindle and Paperback: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0BGSS7H9K
It is August 2025 and the last month of this years Summer Project and the it is my Autumn Reset programme and so more to come.
In this blog I talk about How Life Is Full of Lessons.
Shouting: I have found by shouting has made matters worse when my son wouldn’t eat his food and one work place, there was a manager who screamed and shouted a lot and it just made you want to pack your bags and go. I am not saying that I am perfect, it can be the first thing you do but it has made matters worse. Go into another room, stay calm and with my son now, giving him two choices, as soon as I feel like shouting I will take breath and say “You got two choices and if you do not choose I will choose for you. Check out his video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jQs5l6ojlOI&list=PL0AyektQNGDGF_ms_qIrBILXsIM_rTjp_&index=6 I give into my son when he begins to get annoyed and have a tantrum but you can’t please your kids all the time and staying calm and not shouting, has better results in your child see getting angry and kicking off leads to me make the choice and take my seriously. In shouting my son would laugh and it really got to me. Now I have stopped myself, it has had a better reaction.
Switch off: One Saturday I was seated on the sofa and every five minutes I was looking at my phone. This was driving me mad and so now I don’t have my phone always near me. I am not always on laptop and found sometimes, to do bits in silence. Like writing, cooking and having a drink.
Being out of debt: It feels so good not to be in debt. I do have a Youtube Channel dedicated to money. https://www.youtube.com/@financialliving I needed to rebuild my relationship with money. My spending was getting out of hand. I did have store cards, catalogue Accounts, overdrafts and an Amazon credit card. I was doing buy now pay later. Now out of debt my life has changed financially and monitor what comes in and what goes out. It feels so good to not to have so much “Money Stress” I call it and I do no spend days and use what I got.
Feeling defeated: Began Park run this year and it was good but wasn’t enjoying it. I was getting self conscious about being last. Since then I have been doing walks with my son, walking in the mornings when he was at school and this week did 30,000 steps. Now I feel ready to go back to doing Park run and even run part of it.
So what have you learned. What is now good in your life and how did you go about improving the way you feel about yourself and your life. Please leave a comment below. It is good to see your life changing for the better by what we have learned about areas in our lives.
I like to Plan a lot. It is something I have naturally done and was bread in me. People think because you are planning, that your organised. That is not the case. Its because I am disorganized I plan, I have forgotten when my son has had own clothes day, when he was doing a show at Christmas and not ordered his lunches for school, as he has school dinners, so I see it as a tool but also, a fun exercise.
I keep a written diary and use a Calendar on Notion and google Calendar and make sure I check my emails daily. It is good to have a nice diary or planner as it can feel like a chore but it doesn’t have to be.
I love journaling too and I like to design them so I can flick through and to remind myself of the main things I want to focus on.
I like using photos, images on line to create vision boards along with Pinterest and Canva, and mind maps.
It is great to get your kids involved too and designing and being creative.
Have a Family Planner that your kids can design and write on. Having a List for your children to complete where they can add stickers too once they have completed a task, adding a treat once they have done four things on their list.
I have a writing journal as love to write books, a daily one, gratitude journal and cooking.
You can create your own stickers and cut out words from a newspaper or magazine and books. I have been cutting out notes on my notebooks into my journal. I like to use colouring pens and washi tapes along with labels.
You can be a inventive as you like and can take no more than 10 minutes.
Please check out my Newsletter for July 2025 and talk about what I will be doing as my son is finishing this week for the Summer Holidays. I have been watching Live AID celebrating its 40 years and was hard to see Bob Geldof cry when watching documentary of the songs in the US and the UK and what lengths he had to go through to help those dying in Ethiopia.
Wimbledon Tennis, seeing Billy Idol and seeing The Rocky Horror show with Jason Donovan at Wimbledon Theatre.

Sorry I didn’t post on Monday I had to got the doctors and met up with my mum and step dad, but here is this weeks, it is tips on Getting Organised. I often write a blog all about Organisation: https://organize4thebetter.blogspot.com
I post my cheat sheet each week on various topics and I am not an organised person and because of that I have set up a routine where I will get jobs down, cleaning my home, remembering school dates and any appointments and don’t double book myself.
If you are not wanting to meet with friends, then ask yourself, “Why?” and talk to that critic that’s in your mind. It will always be there. because its part of your brain protecting you but we have to push it away and meet with friends and if it doesn’t go well then noone can keep you there and it is your choice.
Will you feel left out?
Like you are missing out?
I would often feel like that a lot and I realise it was because I wouldn’t go with them and it was a personal attack, when seeing pictures on Facebook. Now I have realised, is that, no they’ve not sending me a message to say I was uninvited and often too caught up in seeing other people myself and when I did got out I would want to stay out all evening.
When I hear the word “NO” I feel like I am in a car stepping on the breaks all of sudden.
My mind is resisting right now. I want to clean the Freezer but its given me a dread feeling. What if I can’t get it clean? Should I film in a vlog? My mind is overactive and the doubt just seeps in and before I know it, that job does not get done as I weighing up the dos and don’ts.
I have my finances to go through. I feel my mind resistance in doing so and it drives me up the wall. So I am going to go through my finances, no matter what my mind is saying, but listen to my gut and know that once it is done this weekly task then that’s it updated, until next week.
It is up to me and what I want to get out of this day. I enjoyed yesterday writing whilst having the tennis on and watching a bit of Youtube. So lets see what I do next and yes if my mind says NO, then I listen to be my gut and ignore the self doubt and weighing up the Consequences.
Everyone can build a castle
