How’s your Being going?!
How are you at Being? Sometimes I’m great…sometimes I suck. That’s the nature of growth though right?! So – Being. Sounds simple and it is. BUT. When we are so focused on the other two components – doing and having, sometimes this vital component falls by the wayside. It falls by the wayside in a […]

Are the things you are doing, or want to do aligned with your life right now? So you want to run 100 miles, and you’ve just started a new job, you have a new baby, and your parents are sick, and you are looking after them. I know you’re bloody fantastic, and you could maybe […]

Take Action Today For Your Future Self
Your future self will thank you for the action you take today! So think of her when your present self is dragging her feet! This is one wee mindset trick I use to help me take actions today that I might not feel like taking! As with all the things I suggest it comes from […]
Taking Aligned Action

Time to hop off the hamster wheel?
BE(ing) Let’s break this sh*t down – what is Be(ing) all about? There are two components to being that I want to discuss. Holding the thoughts, beliefs and intentions that your best future self would have after she has achieved her goals – NOW. 2. Being – in the space that you allow in your […]
Doing from a place of abundance
I read the post of a well-known sportsperson recently telling me to do more hard things and I felt exhausted at the end! I don’t want to do more, push harder, grind. My God! Why are we doing this to ourselves? What is wrong with wanting joy, connection, peace and adventure? In a world obsessed […]

Getting shi*t done!!! Where’s my ladies at here for the ‘doing’?! You know who you are, you’re the ‘tell me what to do, and I’ll do it!’ type. SAME! I’m fricken awesome at doing – and it’s great – I have achieved A LOT, and I’m really proud of that. I did get tripped up […]
How’s your reality working for you?
I’m really interested in how we create our realities, it is fundamental to what I do with my clients and the way I live my life – because my life is my work – and my work is my life. This is central to our being – the way we create our reality. Because we […]

Mistakes runners make…Compare and Despair
We have all been here, compared ourselves to other runners and felt like total crap! Compare and despair is the pits. So why do we do it? As social creatures, we are always comparing ourselves to others. There is the good side where we find our tribe and community and have a sense of belonging. […]
Mistakes runners make…Thinking there is some secret to success…
Are you willing to do things that others aren’t willing to do? That’s what it comes down to at the end of the day, whether it’s a running goal, business or work goal, personal development goal, or even relationship goals. There is no secret formula, the successful people don’t have a special X-factor…generally speaking. They […]
Yes, you can change your mindset (thoughts and beliefs) and in doing so achieve your goals. Here’s the simple three-step process: #1. Awareness. You have to know what your mindset is first before you can change it. What stories are running in your head, what beliefs are lurking below the surface, what thoughts are playing […]
Mistakes runners make…Not having consistency
Weekend warriors unite! I was totally guilty of this when I first started trail running. I would absolutely smash myself on a massive mission on the weekend and spend the week recovering just to do it all over again. Don’t get me wrong, if that’s how you roll and you’re happy with it, go for […]
5 Reasons you should care about your mindset Tanya, I’m doing OK, why should I care about my mindset? #1. You could be sabotaging your own success.

You’ve heard the word on your favourite podcasts, it’s a hot topic and a buzzword – I should know it’s in the title of my Bio! But what does it mean and why should you care? Put simply your mindset is the collection of thoughts and beliefs you have – sounds innocuous enough. The power […]
The Three T’s of Life Transformation
I completed my degree with a double major in Psychology and Education – the Education portion solely focused on human development. But, I was struck while I completed my degree that these two social sciences while complementary, were taught from such different points of reference. Psychology was solely based on the individual and focused on […]
Sportlife Hack #22
Ever had a group of runners together on a rainy day? no doubt someone will pipe up with ‘At least it’s not too hot!!’ I have been known in a race to be somewhat overhappy and exclaim how great the ‘nature’s staircase’ was on a particularly steep and rooty climb…my fellow runners weren’t quite sharing […]
Celebrating wins
Revel… That’s the new word that I’ve added to my to-do list! If you’ve been following me for a while you’ll know I love words. Intentional, audacious…I love the way words make me feel, a good word also seems to feel good to say and I think when a word resonates it has power. So […]
Compassion on the Trails
So compassion might be a weird topic to write about as an athlete…but you know me, always talking about the ‘feeling things’ and the lessons learnt on the trail. So it was somewhere along the Goerge Sound Route, deep In Fiordland, February 2022, when he had an epiphany – and by association so did I. […]
