One of the key messages from all the business training I did last year was to network, and the editing and writing communities are equally sold on the benefits of sharing ideas with as many people as possible. While I’ve moved away from the online course marketing ideas this year, I’m taking useful messages with me and trying to keep connected to whoever wants to.
So reach out if you’re interested in any of my key themes for 2026: writing (lifestyle, music, psychology, health, happiness and wellbeing, ghostwriting memoirs), editing (I can work with anyone from book coaching through developmental and copy editing to proofreading), photography (mostly to support the other activities), or positive life coaching. Sounds like a lot! But in one of my editing projects I was recently reminded that the expression is ‘a jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one’, and that resonates with me. I’m also, honestly, in a period of my life where after a well-established career I’m trying new things and seeing what lands, and not everything will.
I met Louise Muratori through one of my women in business groups and we’ve been connecting regularly for a few months now. Lou has an interesting trajectory from corporate to physical decluttering and is now working as a digital decluttering specialist. And she kindly invited me to write a guest piece for her blog on the wellbeing benefits of a good declutter. It’s the time of year when we start thinking about a spring clean, so here’s the piece. I’ve also written a short piece about spring cleaning for our local French magazine, which caters to the English speakers across four départements.
I’m not always the tidiest of people, as the photograph up top of my office illustrates, but I know I feel better when things are in their place and I’m not drowning in clutter. Time for a little tidy up?
