Intrigue
If you are decisive and you can’t stand pettiness, people are going to undermine you. You must choose your tribe if you want to succeed without impediment. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2020

The Company We Keep
If we knowingly associate with people who lack empathy and respect how can we be alarmed when they misuse and abuse us. We have to vet the people we allow into our space. © Norma Bobb-Semple 2020
Letting Go
Letting go is not about living simply or letting go of the negative influences in our lives. I am sure we can attest to the fact that some of us harbour a fractured relationship with ourselves. We assume that we have to self sacrifice in order to get along. We lose ourselves in the process […]
