Hi, I'm Priya. I have a passion to work with hard working, career driven males that have lost their way.

When you create a busy life, it’s so easy to lose touch with what’s important to you, your core values and noticing if you’re in alignment with them.

Values are learnt through life experiences, family, education, background, culture, social circles and so on. They shape us into who we are, what we stand for and everybody has different ones. When you live in alignment with what’s important to you, naturally you’re going to feel happier, more at peace and likely less stressed.

That’s why it’s important to get clear on these and build a life that compliments your values.

For example:
👩‍❤️‍👨Choosing a partner who shares similar values helps avoid a lot of conflict
🧑‍💻Choosing a career that isn’t going to compromise too much and works alongside what’s important to you will make you feel less pulled in different directions.
🕰Creating time for things outside of just work and family that you enjoy and value builds a fuller life.
-If it’s health, then build healthy habits into your life. If it’s friendship, then make an effort with them. If it’s independence then schedule in me time.

Notice how you feel.

✍🏼 Grab a pen and paper. Start jotting down all the things that are important to you.

Write down next to them all the things you currently do that work alongside your values. Is there anything you could do more of? Is there something conflicting? How can you resolve it? What might you need to let go of? Who do I need to share these with?

Awareness is key, before you decide to do something, ask yourself: does this align with my values and is it going to make me happier?

Check in with yourself monthly to stay on track.

Are you too hard on yourself?

Do you often feel that if things aren’t perfect that you’ve in some way failed or you feel stressed out.

Did you have the perfect plan to get up early and go for a run, go to work and meet that deadline so that you would get home with enough time to have dinner with your family before the kids went to bed?

But that morning one of your kids was sick, you needed to sort them out and had to skip your run. When you got into the office, last minute changes meant you had to work overtime to finish that project, and by the time you got home, your kids were fast asleep and your dinner covered in foil on the side waiting for you to re-heat.

It doesn’t mean you failed. The reality is as much as you want to plan and envision something turning out great, you can’t ever plan for all those curve balls life throws your way.

If you only ever focus on perfection, you’re likely going to feel unhappy, stuck and frustrated.

What you can do is always strive to be a work in progress. Don’t give up just because one day doesn’t go as planned. You might need to adjust your plan, change timings, set boundaries, communicate with those around you and make extra effort at times to work around the unexpected.

So okay you missed your run and didn’t get home on time for dinner- could you do some exercise instead that evening? Could you do breakfast with your kids tomorrow morning? Is there anybody you could delegate some work to and free up more time?

How you do it is entirely up to you, it’s whatever works for your life and circumstances. Don’t be so hard on yourself.

It’s progress over perfection.
Has this helped you?

Your relationship with your kids is likely one of the most important in your life. You want to feel close to them, be connected and have a great bond.

You work really hard to provide for them, make sure they’ve got food, clothes and a roof over their heads. You make sure they have access to every opportunity you can possibly give them. And yet, does it sometimes still feel like they are disconnected from you?

Depending on the age of your child, this can be a normal phase and just part of growing up. However, often it’s easy to use that an excuse and overlook the emotional side of your relationship with them.

When did you last sit down with them to talk totally distraction free, that means no work, no phone and no rushing off. How was your mood? Were you happy and approachable or were you stressed and irritable from work and other life events. Kids pick up on these things.

Are you asking them surface level questions? How are you? But never going deeper or asking specific questions. Have you let them know without assumption, that you are there for them to talk to.

Take at least 15 minutes today to talk with your kids. Try to:
👨‍👧‍👦 Be in a good mood, it makes you more approachable.
👨‍👧‍👦 Don’t jump in with a solution and turn it into a lecture. Just listen.
👨‍👧‍👦 Create a safe, open space by allowing them time to speak.
👨‍👧‍👦 Be intentional in your questions, not pushy. Ask them things like: how they really are, what’s going on in their lives, what’s going well, what are they most enjoying at school/work and ask about their social lives. Is there anything they’re struggling with, are they worried about anything. Ask if and how you can help? Start where you and they feel comfortable.

👨‍👧‍👦Take an genuine interest in what they have to say and notice the difference in how they respond.

Little note: if this is something you don’t often do, be prepared for a little confusion or resistance on their part. They may be adjusting to your new level of communication. Be patient, keep going with it.

Will you try this?

If your head is always looking down at your phone, you may be missing what’s directly in front of you.

Yes technology is great for running a business, keeping in touch, research, online shopping, banking. You name it, probably can be done from the comfort of your home with the click of a few buttons. But how much of this is too much?

You may not even realise, but you may be missing:
-Your partner trying to connect with you and have a deep conversation, but your focus is on the phone and it can make them feel neglected, unimportant and a low priority.
-Your real life friends and the experiences you share with them. They’re slowly becoming pen pals because you rarely make time to physically see them in person. You only talk about the things you can do together and never actually do them.
-Your kids feeling as though you’re too busy to talk to them. Doesn’t matter what you’re doing on the phone, your kids don’t care. They care about the attention and time you give them.
-Your environment. If you’re not paying attention, then how can you really know if your surroundings, including the people around you, are positively impacting you?
-All the little joys that make day to day life enjoyable.
-Shutting out the noise and focusing on just yourself and your needs without distraction.

Be honest, when was the last time your phone wasn’t within touching distance?

Just stop ✋🏽
Turn your phone off, put it in another room, even if it’s just for one hour. Be conscious of that time ⏱
•Notice your environment, what do you hear/see/smell/feel?
•Are you comfortable without your phone?
•How do people respond to you differently when you’re able to give them your undivided attention?

It’s the weekend! What better time to try this. What will you do with your phone free hour today?

How often do you say:

“Oh I’ll call them tomorrow”, “I’m too busy to plan anything”, “I haven’t got time”. And how many times have you had to reschedule or just outright decline invites?

Of course you don’t mean it to come across as though you don’t care, you feel genuinely busy. But put yourself in their shoes. If this is a regular occurance, it creates a pattern that can signal to that person that they are a low priority in your life. You might find contact and invites become less frequent because people already assume you’ll say no.

Often loved ones become the people we neglect the most when life gets hectic. But really, spending time with friends actually:
-Boosts your happiness
-Reduces stress levels
-Can be a great support
-Allows you to slow down and share your stresses and celebrate your wins.
-Help you feel connected
-You’ll have fun!

Nurture the relationships that bring you the most joy. However you want to do it, could be a call, text, sending them a little gesture or just pop in and see them. Get connected. Notice the difference it makes to how you feel and make their day in the process.

Who will you reach out to today?

Sounds basic right?
Yet this is something a lot of people don’t actually do. Why? Probably because it sounds so simple. You may even ask yourself, what can I really achieve in 5 minutes?

⏳ Use it as reflection time
⌛️Jot down a plan for the day ahead - including those things outside of work.
⏳Get up & get moving - even if it’s a quick walk round the block or just stretching your legs.
⌛️Note down or think about one thing you’re grateful for in your life
⏳Listen to your favourite song

These are just ideas, it literally can be anything you like as long as it benefits you. The point of this is taking intentional time for just you. Re-focusing and wiring your brain to prioritise yourself. Start easy, take 5.

What will you do with your intentional 5 minutes?

Do you run your own business?

Go you! What an achievement to run your own company and reap all the benefits that come with it 🤩

Being successful is great, and it’s something to be proud of! But it’s taken a lot of sacrifice. Your business is your baby, and you’ve worked hard to make it happen. However, that focus can take its toll if you don’t make a conscious effort to create balance.

You might talk about great sales, new clients and so on. But do you ever share the other side? Being so busy that you regularly skip lunch, constantly being on your phone, distracted from loved ones because you’re fearful if you don’t check your emails, you might miss something. Even knowing you had said you’d go to the gym after work but instead decided to squeeze in one more meeting with a prospective client as you were too scared to lose the business if you told them to wait until tomorrow. Putting your social life, loved ones and health on the back burner can make you feel guilty, frustrated and eventually burnt out.

Don’t worry, you’re not alone!
The 2019 CIPD survey suggests that 70% of our time is working. Be that travelling to and from, doing the work, or thinking about work. That’s a huge chunk of our day! No wonder it feels difficult to get a good work-life balance when our brains are so switched on to work.

Awareness is a big game changer - if this all sounds familiar then it’s time for a change!

💡 Take a minute to think about one thing you’ve been putting off because work has got in the way. Look at your schedule for the week ahead and create a non-negotiable time slot to do that thing. Take a quick note of all the benefits doing it will give you to remind you why it’s so important and to stop the excuses taking charge.

🙋🏽‍♀️ Mines: I’ll finish work at 5 & go to the gym for 1 hour at 5.30pm today. Benefits: Clears my head, more energy, improves health, I’ll be motivated to eat better, a whole hour to focus on just me.
