When I was pregnant I experienced that common phenomena of noticing the many pregnant women around me. My antenna was up and I went from not particularly paying attention to a pregnant woman to being fascinated.

I am having that moment again – but this time I am noticing the transitions people are going through. At FFW we are transitioning to a new business model in the second half of the year where we will maximise the potential of all women by offering tailored professional career services. It is so exciting and I can’t wait to bring you all in on the journey.

Have you watered down your impact?

Torn. That is what I felt when I read Sheryl Sandberg’s quote.

On Dare to Wear Day I will be dressing up in the uniform I wore for my first job.

As soon as I reached the ‘official’ working age of 14 and ¾ years, I went to my local bakery, proudly holding a type-written resume and asked for a job. I was so nervous and scared.

I am sure like me, you are usually too busy at this time of year to do much reflection on the year that has past. I seem to have more commitments than ever, and the last few weeks have flown. Recently, I had a 7 hour aeroplane flight to Singapore and I was idly looking at my notebook when the page opened on my New Year's resolutions for 2012.
