A recent article on Glam Adelaide by Hannah Pendlebury suggested that clutter in the home is the reason that many couples fight. Unfortunately, this rang a little bit too true for me!

The work that we do at Lifestyle Elements makes for a very ‘non-traditional’ office setting!

Arianna Huffington released her book ‘Thrive‘ earlier in the year. When I went on maternity leave, I wanted some books to read whilst I waited for baby number two to arrive, so I jumped online and searched for Arianna Huffington.

“Work-life balance is a flawed concept. I don’t know a single successful person who feels like they have mastered the equation.

Emma Isaacs, CEO of Business Chicks, is a huge fan of outsourcing. She says “I don’t understand why people wouldn’t outsource as much as they could – there’s no benefit in being a martyr. Even if it means losing out financially, what you gain – time with family – is worth much more.” I […]
This morning I was at a Business Chicks breakfast with the amazing Sir Richard Branson. He regaled us with stories of getting a “bloody bum” when jumping off a roof in Las Vegas, and how the movie The Hangover is almost certainly based on a night he partied after the Melbourne Grand Prix! One line […]

High performance environments are stressful workplaces, to say the least. When results are king, mediocrity is disdained and failure intolerable. Some employees burn out in the struggle to consistently meet the high expectations typical of these environments. Meanwhile, the individuals who thrive in these environments have intense ambition–and are always on the lookout for greener […]
Many of us have a love-hate relationship with work. It defines us, it gives purpose. Without it we are in trouble; and yet it can be so difficult to control. As a barrister in the North-east of England for fifteen years I thrived on the adrenaline, the camaraderie, the clients and – yes, okay – […]
Over a coffee recently, a group of my friends was discussing a new “what the heck am I doing?” trend emerging among our cohort of working parents. The topic was sparked by one super busy-professional-mother-of-young-children friend who was continually interrupted by her not-so-subtle vibrating iPhone. Did I mention that she, like the rest of us […]
Following on from ‘On Having It All – Part 1’, Abbie discusses some ideas for the future of work life balance and how we can move this debate forward.

For my birthday Tim treated us to dinner and a night at the movies. We decided to go and see The Hunger Games, even though I had really wanted to read the book by Suzanne Collins beforehand – it’s just a general life policy I have to try to read the book before the film! However, this wasn’t […]
When one of my Consultants left after 7 years I was excited for her. She was taking a big leap of faith and pursuing one of her life long dreams of becoming a paramedic. It was at her farewell when it hit me how important it is to reward staff on a random, yet regular […]

Yesterday I had the pleasure of attending the Crows Foundation Ladies Luncheon. The room was full of energetic, happy, generous women; it was a wonderful afternoon. The lunch was chock full of action, including an auction, a Liza Emanuele fashion parade, and a silent auction (which we were proud to contribute to). The highlight for me however, was […]
I sit at my desk, iPad to my left, laptop in front of me, and a large monitor to my right. My iPhone is also at the ready, next to my physical notebook. Yes, I’m a bit of a gadget geek. I love testing out new software, having the latest Microsoft Office suite or trying […]
Last year was my first Mother’s Day. I wasn’t sure what to expect. I think I was just looking forward to breakfast in bed or some chocolates or a nice lunch out (incidentally I was given a great book by Adelaide author Jane Paech, A Family in Paris). I got something even better. What I felt […]
As the guest blogger for Lifestyle Elements today I wanted to touch on time management with an etiquette spin and under this umbrella there is one of the most commonly asked questions I get: What time is on time to arrive for a meeting? There is a saying I love “On time is late” and […]
I’m always interested when I hear women talking about how little time they have for the everyday things … especially themselves! Of course, I come from an era when women always had time! Although I do remember my mother rushing around to organise the house for when my father got home; she used to go […]
We all have them. Or, if we don’t, we should get busy getting some. Yes, those crazy life goals where, on the one hand, you don’t believe will ever come true, and on the other hand, secretly can’t wait for! Yes, you know, those goals. I have them. Do you? My first goal is to […]
How so you ask? Let me explain. Now I know the girls will get this straight away, but guys, this can relate to you as well. Shoes come in so many different shapes, sizes, colours, and designs. They can be pointy, wide, long, or short, high-heeled or flat, boots or shoes, etc. Some will look […]

Money has been at the forefront of many people’s minds over the past few years with job instability, changes in tax, and decreasing pay cheques etc. It is understandable that the change in the economy has not passed without leaving a negative effect on our financial mindsets.

At the start of the year Tim and I were advised that the office space that we utilised was no longer going to be available.

I often hear stay-at-home mothers saying they can never find time to exercise and often feel guilty that they can’t maintain their pre-baby exercise routine. Between breastfeeding, nappy changing and getting dinner ready, some parents struggle to even have a shower let alone get to the gym. Exercising whilst at home is possible; the answer […]

The number of organisations utilising the services of a Corporate Concierge is still relatively low in Australia. In fact it is quite difficult to get real data on organisations who have implemented a concierge service. “That’s because we don’t need corporate concierge services!” I hear you say. In America however, many organisations are starting to realise […]

Even as a child, I can recall lying on the floor in agony until the pain subsided, the doctors always put it down to a rumbling appendix or a lazy bowel. As I got older I was diagnosed with IBS, by my GP, even though I didn’t meet a large majority of the criteria, thus […]
I was inspired to write this post after reading Gretchen Rubin’s interview with Rachel Bertsche on her blog The Happiness Project. In the post Gretchen asks Rachel a number of questions around happiness, one being ‘Is there a happiness mantra or motto that you’ve found very helpful?’ Rachel’s answer was the inspiration for this post today – “These […]

I grew up in a home where being late was not an option. If we had to be at a certain place at 3:00 p.m., then we were at that certain place at 3:00 p.m. For a short time, I believed that everyone was like that. I believed that no one was late, that everyone […]
