Neurodiverse Georgia Peach transplanted to Cape Town, the most beautiful city in the world
There are so many different 'Self Help' books & programs banging around that if you base your identity on one of them then you may end up feeling like you have (DID) Dissociative Identity Disorder (what used to be known as Multiple Personality Disorder). Are you this? Are you that? What if you are a …
It has been a busy week! I've swam, walked in the forest, gained a new client, spent time with my daughter and granddaughter, and started learning a new technical tool! For a housebound introvert this is a high achievement. Last weekend was hot but at least the humidity had broken from all of the rain. …
This week has been full of chaos and stress and fabulous things, I am like a yoyo. Next week I will be in George visiting Lily, Amelia, Josh and Trevor. I am looking forward to it so much! Last Sunday Norm and I were booked for lunch at Veldt DBE with Wesley, Caitlin and Bree. …

But what if the tick-list that others apply does not contain the same things which make you feel like you have attained success? We often lose sight …
Last Saturday I had a text message from our friend Mark asking what time he should come and collect Finn. It was only then that I realised we had completely forgotten that we were booked to go out for another Restaurant Week dinner to Gambas Seafood Bistro. I have been craving seafood for months and …
I finally feel like I am comfortable being around other humans again, well, as comfortable as my introverted self ever gets.
