Happy You Found Me…

… and are here visiting My Elephant in the Room. I’d love for you to stay a while and read a little.

My girlies, my world ♥️

If the last 50 years have taught me anything it is that life is a journey and an unpredictable one at that. 10 years ago I had no idea I would be living on the other side of the world, despite having talked about it as a family and I sure as heck did not imagine I would be divorced. I guess the one constant thread throughout is how I interact with others and the fact that I am at my happiest and most grounded when part of a community. I want to share that and build a community here, a supportive community helping out friends, family and each other when we need it most.

My plan for being here is to share a little of what I have collected over these last 50 years and hopefully show others who are struggling that not only is there a tunnel, but that there’s a great big light shining down there too. I would be honored if something I shared with someone helped them find their way just a little easier. I hope this blog provides some inspiration and comfort to you if you are dealing with some of the issues I’ve lived through in the last decade. And if it does, I would love it if you would leave me a comment, follow me on social media and even tell your friends about me! Better still connect with me and let’s discuss how I could help you. Help me build my community…

First and foremost I am mum of two gorgeous, sometimes exasperating, often hysterical daughters. As a family of four we relocated to Upstate New York from the UK nearly a decade ago, leaving behind a successful 20 year long career in Education. Recently divorced, so now a family of three, we are learning how to empower and support each other whilst putting our lives back together…
