Share All The Things Friday

We’re at the beginning of two weeks holiday here in New Zealand. The clocks change tomorrow, the weather is slowly warming up and I’m kicking the kids outside to play every chance I get. I think summer is inching closer!




  • I’ve got a delicious drink to share with you today. Chia lemon tea. It sounds odd – but it’s delicious – do try it! You’ll need a teaspoon of chia seeds (I’ve got black but white looks prettier), a blob of honey, a slice of lemon and boiling water. Pop the chia seeds and the honey in the bottom of your cup, pour over the boiling water and drop in your lemon slice. You’ll need a teaspoon to savour every last chia seed, they get quite gloopy given a chance to soak for a bit.


  • The Good Life Project has been running for a couple of years now. Jonathan Fields has interviewed dozens of fascinating and inspiring creative entrepreneurs and ground-breaking thinkers and I look forward to my weekly fix. Some of my favourites interviews have been with Brene Brown, Dani Shapiro, Milton Glaser and Christian Howes. (You really don’t have to watch all those! But I think they’re a great place to start). So far, all of the interviews have been videoed but that’s all changing. Jonathan believes that he’ll get even more candid and revealing interviews without cameras in the room. So he’s changing to radio. It’ll be interesting to see how his theory works out.


  • Cooperative Press are running a survey where they’re asking you to be the boss. They really want to hear what you have to say about where they should take their business and they’re offering a $100 book voucher to one lucky participant as well as random prizes for being awesome. It doesn’t take long to fill it out (I have!). You’ve got till the end of the month.


Happy weekend everyone! X
