Why You Need to Read “Becoming,” The Autobiography of Michelle Obama regardless of Your Political Sensibilities
Do you consider yourself conservative? Or maybe liberal? Or maybe somewhere in between? No matter where a person falls on the political spectrum, it is my (fairly centrist) opinion that you will thank me later for having suggested this delightful read, or listen if you choose the audiobook read by none other than the author. (I definitely suggest the audiobook!)

5 Books to get you inspired to break free of the 9 to 5.
It's fair to say that whatever trip you may or may not have planned yours likely won't look much like any of the following, you probably won't befriend the Dalai Llama, you won't travel for years on $5000 and hopefully you won't get severely lost in the Alaskan wilderness.

all about love
I have a viney plant that sprouts beautiful red blooms (Red Mandevilla) that we keep inside in the winter and outside on a balcony in the summer. It usually doesn’t bloom too much in the winter but continues to grow and vine its way around. In the late spring when we put it out on the balcony, it continues to vine wrapping itself around the balusters. Once the vines are firmly rooted, it starts to bloom. In thinking about love and the book all about love: New Visions by bell hooks, this is the image that came to mind. Only through knowing, accepting, and loving the self can we reveal our love to others. Like the vine, it is only when we are anchored in who we are that we can show our beautiful gifts, in love or otherwise.

Financial Freedom
The first time I saw Lynn Richardson she was a guest on one of my favorite YouTube channels. The channel is called, "His and Her Money." She caught my attention by making me laugh. I enjoy her sarcasm and blunt way of speaking. When coach Richardson really gets into what she is saying she starts to sound like a preacher and anyone listening cannot help but feel a strong desire to say, amen sister.

Top 20 Books of 2020
Back in 2013 I gave myself the challenge of reading one book a week, which I greatly enjoyed and was able to repeat in 2014, but then life got in the way. I moved from London to Glastonbury, got married, and set up a theatre company with my husband Stephen Cole, His & Hers Theatre Company; for years we have been incredibly busy with performances and modelling, amongst other things, but then everything changed, like it did for most people in the performing industries, with the pandemic. Although we have carried on performing and modelling online, and in person during the months when it was possible, I was also able to read a whopping 54 books, most of which had been on my to-read list for ages, some of which came in as gifts, some of them even written by fellow writer friends.

What If You Are the Monster?
I was reading an article this week about "The Monster At the End Of This Book." If you've never read it, you should. It turns 50 this year. It's fabulous. Sure, it's a kid's book but it's still fabulous. Grover from Sesame Street finds out that there is a monster at the end of his book. He gets scared and comes up with more and more complicated ways to prevent the reader from turning pages, hoping to not get to the end of the book. Of course, at the end, it turns out that Grover IS the monster at the end of the book.
