The Key to Positivity: A Journey of Continuous Learning

I have been inspired to write this post after I recently read the books The Comfort Zone and The Key to Positivity by Kristen Butler. I found both books were incredibly inspiring, and when juggling running a business, managing a team, and all whilst trying to spend time with family and friends, it’s safe to say it is difficult to stay positive consistently when managing stress.

Managing stress is a subject I have studied for many years, not just as part of my CIPD studies, but when meeting the many different people I am fortunate to work with. I am always curious to find out what works for people, because the answers are never the same, from the variety of solutions available, it is interesting to learn from others on what works for them.

Your Dream is Possible

Pursuing your dreams can be hard, there are moments of discouragement, countless rejections and disappointment. This can encourage us to throw in the towel and just give up (that’s the easiest option right?), but every now and again, you’ll read a story that inspires you and encourages you to not give up. I hope that this blog will do exactly that.

Over the Christmas break, I have been lucky to spend more time with my family than I usually would, and also some downtime that gave me an opportunity to reflect on everything that has happened over the past 12 months. It has been incredibly busy with Rebox HR as the business continues to grow, but I have also grown as a person too, I’ve spoken at multiple events, hosted my own conference, launched training programmes, won multiple awards, and appeared on 17 different podcasts. Overall, it has been an incredible year, but it hasn’t been without it challenges.
