survival mode

Welcome to The Thrive Society

Why would you want to simply survive when you can choose to thrive?

When I was diagnosed with breast cancer 9 years ago, I was definitely in survival mode. Going through the motions, racking up achievements. Ticking boxes. All good.

So how come, in the midst of a major health scare, it didn’t seem all good anymore?

I realised I had been simply allowing my life to unfold, one foot in front of the other. Which is so, sooooo normal, especially when ‘technically’ you’re a big success. Familiar?

It's the last 90 days of this decade!

It's the last 90 days of this decade!

As I sit here typing, there are 90 days left, not just in this year, but of this decade. To think, one day we will look back and exclaim, back in the 10’s we xyz (how weird does that sound?!).

At this time of year, it’s pretty common to slip into “it’s nearly over” mode. I mean let’s just limp toward the finish line (that is the holidays) and start fresh next year. Sound familiar? In corporate, it can even be a bit of a mantra. You know guys, we just have to keep pushing, to get through. Urgh, really?!
