23.01.2022 What we eat today, walks and talks tomorrow. Check out what I've found out about gluten and grains. It's a bit hard to swallow.

19.01.2022 Really connecting with others feels so good, doesnt it? Whose company do you enjoy the most? Who is truly interested in what you have to say?
19.01.2022 Calm has been my favourite app for the last couple of years. In fact, I find it so valuable that I have signed up for life-time membership. This is a beautiful guided mediation on loving kindness led by Tamara Levitt. Take some time to sit and relax and be still in the moment. It's so worth it. Jen x

17.01.2022 It was a real honour to interview Joileen Mischel this afternoon. Joileen is the author of the very moving story, Broken Past Heals Dreams. As I read Joileen's... book, it took me on a real emotional roller coaster. I found myself amazed, enthralled, saddened, enraged, shocked and fascinated. It took me out of my comfort zone. I hope you enjoy this short interview with a woman who knows a thing or two about resilience and courage. See more

13.01.2022 If I hadn’t written a book called Life’s a Mango, I would have written a book called Life’s a Jacaranda. Do you love them as much as me?
13.01.2022 Sometimes we know beyond a shadow of a doubt theres something we need to do. We feel it strongly. And then, we talk ourselves out of it - coming up with all th...e logical reasons in the world as to why it cant happen. Read my true story of when I didnt allow that negative head talk to get a hold. I used the 5,4,3,2,1 Go method. It was worth it! See more

11.01.2022 Heres a sneak peek of an illustration from the second edition of Lifes a Mango - soon to be published.

06.01.2022 It was an honour to interview the author, George Johnston, about his new book, Into the Storyverse. I found that as I followed the character Dustys journey, I ...too was taken on my own internal and intimate journey. The way George cleverly combines prose and verse really adds depth to this special book. See more
05.01.2022 I really love working with creatives - first on the new photos, then the illustrations for my 2nd edition, next my new look website and finally the new cover. T...hey are all different creatives and all with something unique to offer. I just love the creative journey and the fine adjustments until you finally arrive at the point where it's just perfect! This is the latest (but not final cover) for the 2nd edition of Life's a Mango. Thanks to Wally Martin and Jason Smith for your design input. See more

04.01.2022 Attention to detail has been the mantra over the past few days. Been working my butt off this week filling out the 4th ORP file amendment form. This has meant... going through the 2nd edition of Lifes a Mango and picking up every single error I can find. Thank you Jason (aka Flash), my publishing manager, for suggesting I read every single word in the book out loud. This has been an invaluable technique for picking up errors my eyes may have glanced over. Cant wait to meet with Jason tomorrow to discuss paper colour and quality, embossing etc. Im starting to get excited now about the new, illustrated 2nd edition with 76 poems. Lifes a Mango - a guide to awakening through rhyming wisdom. See more
03.01.2022 I recently really needed to be forgiven for something. It was such a relief when I was.
02.01.2022 If it wasn't for COVID-19 I wouldn't have (fill in the space). Read this true story about a new normal that is better than the old normal.
02.01.2022 We all have different versions of ourselves, right? it's a pity that for many of us, we have to leave our chosen profession in order to be the best version of ourselves - the one we like the most. Is there another way?
01.01.2022 Be careful. We're all a bit sensitive at the moment .....
