Train cancellations from London to Manchester has led me train hoping like I’m on some sort of Challenge Anneka programme (only people over 40 will get that reference)

Too many Sundays - I couldn’t love this more by Donna Ashworth👇🏽

Too many Sundays have been darkened by the dreaded presence of Monday, looming in like a storm cloud of fear, anxiety and gut-wrenching stress. Sunday is your gift, your day to recharge, your freedom. Be protective of that time. Monday has its space enough; do not let it overstep its mark. Make your plans, prepare, then push Monday back into its box and let Sunday shine forth like the jewel it is. You deserve this day of soul rest. Life is not a chore to be dealt with; it's to be lived, my friend.
•You're here to live. And Sunday is a day, gifted to us, for doing whatever your little heart desires.

A lunch with a friend reminded me that in 2018, when asked what some of my greatest fears were, public speaking was up there. It's funny how life can change overnight when you stop seeking external validation.

I’m standing on a stage with my good friend Jenni Field. Behind us is a big sign that says The Long Haul Leader Summit. There are two screens. One is in the right hand side the other is on the left. On the screen it says Believe in yourself so others believe in you.

Baroness Warsi shared some powerful words on solidarity at last night’s Asian Comms Network event and it’s stayed with me all day. Everything can feel tough when you’re doing it alone but with the network we’re hoping to breakdown barriers and give people the support they need to thrive.

Yesterday we hosted the Asian Comms Network event at The Cinnamon Club in Westminster. The food was PHENOMENAL and chef Vivek Singh was a delight. If you haven’t been, I highly recommend!
