I saw this quote,
“My life got better when I learned to balance kindness with self-respect. Being considerate is important, but so are healthy boundaries. I strive to be good - treating others well while also honouring my own needs and values.”

And that resonated 100%. WorkLife

Can’t complain when the work view is like this. 🥰

Thank you, UHD ♥️

I’m bidding farewell to an incredible chapter as today officially marks my last day with UHD.

Much grateful for the memories made, lessons learned, and wonderful friendships who have become like family in Dorset.

Another important leadership lesson I’m learning on my inclusive journey is when colleagues are brave enough to tell you that you’re getting things wrong then listen.

And when those colleagues are Black, Brown, LGBT+, Disabled then I listen even harder.
