One time, I was at a Q&A with Nora Roberts, and someone asked her how to balance writing and kids, and she said that the key to juggling is to know that some of the balls you have in the air are made of plastic & some are made of glass.

@AidanJohnMoffat I love that anecdote. My daughter is 6 too and she loves to play “Catch the escaped unicorn from the magical zoo” in which her dad and I have to chase her. Gets her through the school gates on time...(less fun at bedtime)

@nuttall_claire @ViviennePorritt @STGeorges_LUX @aspinall_sue @LizAMFree I couldn’t agree more. Feel really lucky to have had such amazing leadership training today by inspirational women. Lots of lightbulb moments #WomenEd

@Ryanair Wishing there was less single-use plastic on board your flights! I tried to refuse the plastic cup but the air host apologetically explained that he had to give it to me. Could you look into providing sustainable alternatives?
