Step Outside

Happy Friday!

I’ve been fortunate to experience two wonderful walks in the last week – a sunny one and a muddy one! – both equally as enjoyable and a great reminder of the brilliant conversation, connection and break throughs you can have when away from desks and screens.

Thank you so much to Jen Le Marinell, Chris Baigent-Reed - Fintech consultancy and outsourcing company and Tessa Lee Louise Wallis Kim Calder for a wonderful Women in Finance Collective Netwalk at Hatton Locks. It was super to learn so much from you Jen and I've been reflecting all week on some of the impactful exercises you shared with us.

Thank you also to Liz Pemberton for the adventurous walk then lunch at Horwood House with my inappropriate trousers! So lovely to catch up and discuss all things coaching, development and learning as well as reminiscing about our AXA days. I always have so much fun with you!

Whatever the weather, challenge yourself to step outside – some of the best reflections, discussions, decisions and breakthroughs happen when you give yourself space and a new environment. It’s also wonderful to be around nature to gain perspective, balance and appreciation. A good autumn walk will energise and refresh you! 🍂🍃🍁

Have a super weekend ahead!
