Hey How do you sum up 5 weeks in the life of a parent? “Ain’t nobody got time for that” comes to my mind (and perhaps it brought this one back for you too 😀 ). And it’s not just that it would
Hey It’s starting to get to me. I’ve been feeling exhausted these past couple of weeks. A combination of parenthood, our big launch week to promote the next evolution of the Coaching Lab, Nelly being on crutches after spraining her ancle,
Hey It’s still pretty full-on as a new parent in a new environment. Can’t believe how quickly time passes! Leah is 14 months old this week and already running around like a champion! It’s the age that I was most afraid
Hey What a turbulent start into the new this has been. Lots of endings, lots of new beginnings. Death seemed to keep knocking on my door rather too frequently these past 6 weeks. Somewhat fortunately, this touched me mainly through
Hey First of all, and before I potentially lose you in all this content, let me say:Happy Holidays and I wish you the best possible transition into 2023. Here’s my favourite shot of Leah’s first Christmas to make your heart feel a little
Hey <<First Name>> I’ve moved!It’s been a trip! And boy did I underestimate how much of a ball ache it would be, how much it would add to my to-do list, and how little time Leah would leave us to unpack! But
Hey ! It’s time to finally kick off this exciting experiment that I’ve been teasing for some time now. (In case you missed it: shorter & more frequent Nuggets*). See, back in 2018 these Nuggets started as short and tasty little
Hey The end of Yannick’s Nuggets? 😱 Let me start with bit of housekeeping: After a number of months getting the backend of my business more organised with the help of Martin, we’re now very close to launching a brand new Coaching Lab
Hey ! We’re back on track!! Yay 🙂 Not without some excellent help though, that is. I gotta say, babies do lead to all sorts of delays. That part of the narrative is certainly spot on! So first of all, a big
Hey ! As you’d expect, becoming a dad has led to a few new insights. For instance, there’s the fact that yes, I tend to create a tonne of projects (a “project-salad” as my new COO Martin likes to call it),
Nuggets What I’ve (always) struggled with – Of pruning and hoarding What’s really helping me out – Yannick Jacob, Father/Science Detective! What a piece of shit taught me about responsibility – Sarte vs. Projectile poo What I’ve learned about my mind – Presence, distractions
What I’ll be telling my kids – It’s not ALL about relationships What will follow me for decades – How language shapes our minds What organisations can do to waste the power of WHY – Playing the purpose game What made me lose my shit – We
Oh my, what a summer it’s been! I do a lot of “checking-in” as part of a dozen monthly supervision groups and a clear theme has been emerging across most of them: Stretch! It seems that part of what the pandemic caused
There are two special events I wanted to make you aware of coming up in June and July. If you know someone who you think would benefit from learning about the existential coaching landscape, I’d really appreciate you passing
I’m late. Well not that anybody notices or necessarily even cares about how regularly these Nuggets find their way into the inboxes of the world, but it did matter to me. I had made a promise that every last Friday of
I want to start these nuggets with a pie chart. Because every March since 2005 I’ve been thinking about the day my friend Max showed it to me and until just now I could never find it again. Okay well,
I hope you’re well! The 2nd waves are easing off in most places and I can feel both, a sense of collective hope as some countries have made great progress with their vaccine rollouts, and also a real lockdown fatigue as
What a turbulent start to the new year it’s been! I hope you and your loved ones are doing/being okay in all this. I’ve arguably had much less time to think lately, but whenever I became still, my thoughts included those
The prospect of being able to gain and maintain consciousness during a dream has always fascinated me. I’ve heard stories about flying, threesomes, having tea with childhood nightmare monsters and, more recently, the therapeutic possibilities of lucid dreaming as it
What a trip this has been! And what a trip it still is! Yes, 2020 is officially over! John Oliver blew it up actually. But that’s the thing with time. It’s just a concept that helps us get together and even the
