I am based in my new studio in the green Surrey Hills just outside London. I am so happy in my new space as it’s by far the largest studio I have had the pleasure to work in solo, and it has three giant windows so even on the not so best English days I get all the light that is available.

If you’re a sports fan —or even if you’re not— there’s something powerful in watching a team of people work together for a common goal. Each member has their role to play - sometimes out in the spotlight and sometimes on the sidelines - but regardless of their position, they are pushing one another forward, towards their collective definition of success.

For any communication to be complete and effective, of course the words you use (whether oral or written) need to be chosen carefully. But remember, communication is two-way – we've got to learn to be good listeners too!

  I'm one of those people who checks my Facebook account regularly, like four to five times a day (maybe more, if I'm being really honest; and when I am bored). There have been many articles on how social media has the effect of "oh there he/she goes again, boasting about his/her perfect life" and yes, I'm sure we all have friends that do that (present company excluded of course). But what if we could use our social media platforms as an accountability partner instead?
