For the first time ever I wrote an entire blog entry and deleted it. Why? Because it sounded like an agony aunt column and I didn’t have an agony aunt day.
Okay, some people might call it a little loopy, but I’m sure I’m not the only person who spends their day talking to themselves. Continue reading
Published November 3rd, 2010I sat down to blog at about 11pm last night and had one of the most important moments with myself. Sliding my chair back, I knew that I had done enough for one day and that this could wait. I’m at the most crucial time of my healing because I am off all the strong medication and am still able to write. Two little over the counter painkillers saw me through the day and I could feel the push to do more.
Yesterday was beyond words for me. Continue reading
Published August 4th, 2010As personal as ‘project me’ is, I’ve jumped on my little soap box often enough and waved my patriotic South African flag. I waved it when people were annoyed at the Springboks and I waved it again despite not having the most fabulous world cup experience and maybe a little too proudly defended my country when everyone was saying the vuvuzelas where annoying.
In my aspirations to be a writer and blogger, it can be an extremely tough journey. Continue reading
Published July 12th, 2010I’m feisty and outspoken at the best of times but my pet peeve is couch potato commentary. What has this got to do with ‘project me’? Nothing and everything.
Nothing because I don’t think there is anything unconscious about my need to vent and have my say to these couch potato coaches, refs and athletes … and everything because it’s something that I battle to let go of before my blood boils profusely and I unleash the wrath of judgement back onto them.

Published July 5th, 2010Thank you to She’s the Geek for the acknowledgement of my contribution to empowering women in technology. This is the interview that marks a very proud moment in ‘project me’:
Published May 7th, 2010When I decided to blog every day for the whole of this year there were a lot of people who either thought I was crazy or I wouldn’t follow through. I knew it was one hell of an undertaking, but the whole time it was always more about the reason why I was blogging.
“Project me” is all about putting myself first, telling myself the truth, having fun and being less driven by goals while feeling purposeful and filled with self worth and love. It seems so much easier said than done and considering I’ve been doing my half hearted attempt at ‘project me’ for the past 6 years, I can vouch for the fact that it’s harder than it sounds.

6 CommentsPublished May 2nd, 2010I’m trying to have one of those days where I chill out as much as I can because I have a funny feeling that things are beginning to lift off and weekends are going to get busy. Oh wait … from next Saturday I’m teaching archetypes again, so it is going to get busy. So, today I’m planning to watch tv all day, wait for the puppy to come visit and then go to dinner with a very special friend of mine … but before that, I’m having my ‘project me’ moment and getting to know me a little better.
If you could give the world one piece of advice, what would it be? Continue reading
Published February 25th, 2010I have done everything under the sun to avoid blogging tonight.
Some of the distractions were in my highest esteem, like having a long overdue chat to Pandora and another needed one to Text Guy. I also go the February newsletter off … woo hoo! http://jodene.co.za/newsletters
Others were in a much lower esteem, like eating myself into near coma and … um … still eating!! Continue reading
Published January 4th, 2010Day four of ‘project me’ and the assessment is as follows … very sucky start to say the least!
Rewind to March last year …
My very precious friend (who shall be known as ‘Pandora’ because we tell each other EVERYTHING (more than I tell my Greggie, coz he doesn’t really wanna hear all the intricate girlie stuff and I never got that ‘Will and Grace’ part of choosing a gay best friend exactly right).
Anyways … She knows more than anyone else, Continue reading
