It’s always the age old trade off between work and life. We all know what should come first, but sometimes it’s difficult to strike that perfect balance between the two. It’s twelve months since I left my long term job that took so much of my time and was difficult to put switch off from. Now I have a longer commute BUT have less difficulty tuning out and concentrating on what is important.
Decided to illustrate this by balancing my wedding ring on my MacBook Pro as I spend most of my day connected to a Mac one way or another!

One of the benefits of being a self employed consultant is that it provides more opportunities for this. But it's not all plain sailing.

Oops... I forgot to set my alarm last night. Probably because I was too busy drinking wine to take the edge off the road rash. As I'm already running late, I decided just to relax and get my SP out of the way today and be really late.
Besides, I've been working too much anyway. (And I'm management, so I don't really "punch a clock".)

In memory of the hundreds of Bishnoi Women, who died protecting their dear trees in 1730, a number of khejri trees are planted around the area, which is still notably lush and rich with animal life. The Bishnoi sacrifices became the inspiration for a much larger Chipko movement that is still growing today, in which villagers physically embrace trees to save them from logging. The Bishnoi faith is founded on 29 principles, most of which promote environmental stewardship. Bishnois strictly forbid the harming of trees and animals.

Guess it's pretty self-explanatory! Slightly out of balance at the moment, I'm sure it will be back on track soon!
International Women’s Day is a time to reflect on progress made, to call for change and to celebrate acts of courage and determination by ordinary women who have played an extraordinary role in the communities.

Each day starts with a sunrise and ends with a sunset. Although it is the same routine everyday, I cannot get bored watching them. But then, why do so much things bore us when we experience them day by day?

Inspired Women are Empowered Women
The goal of gender equality has been at the centre of the economic and political agenda during the two decades since the adoption of the 1995 Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action. In September 2015, world leaders adopted the 17 new global Sustainable Development Goals and 169 targets. Goal 5 focuses specifically on gender equality and the empowerment of women. Financial independence is key to women empowerment.

"Good Health”
Violence against women and girls is everyone's problem. It brings down an entire society. We are ALL touched by femicide in India. Census data shows that poverty and illiteracy are not key factors in India’s female genocide as many assume. The survival of girls is determined by a patriarchal politics of wealth control.

in the quiet moments away from the kitchen chaos, a chef in his crisp, blue apron takes a brief pause on the streets of paris, just near place blanche. his posture is relaxed, the phone in hand perhaps bringing news or simply offering a moment of disconnect. the worn texture of the blue door behind him contrasts with the stillness in his expression, a subtle reflection of the bustling world just outside the frame. the atmosphere captures a blend of resilience and reflection, a fleeting pause in a long day.

ENDING VIOLENCE AGAINST
WOMEN AND GIRLS
Violence against women and girls is a grave violation of human rights. Violence happens in public and private places.
It has many forms which range from domestic or intimate
partner violence to sexual harassment and assault, female
genital mutilation, trafficking, sexual violence in conflict
and gender-related killing.
The impact of violence ranges from immediate to longterm physical, sexual and mental health consequences
for women and girls, including death. It negatively affects
women’s general well-being and prevents women from
fully participating in society. Violence not only has longlasting consequences for women but also their families,
the community and the country at large. It also has tremendous costs, from greater health care and legal expenses to productivity losses, impacting national budgets and overall development.
