Time to BOSE

Having created the outines for the 7 Modules in the Feminine Alpha Author Course, I grabbed my BOSE Mini SoundLink and said “Right then! It’s time to BOSE!”.

Time to BOSE isn’t just about laying on a beach in the sun, or relaxing on the beach by a fire, or lying in a hot bath soaking my body, for me it’s every opportunity I can get.

I LOVE MY BOSE Mini SoundLink, and there’s loads of bloody good reasons too as well!

I NEED music in my life.  A day without music is just not a good day for me, and as someone with tinnitus from all the days of dancing around speaker stacks back in my raving days, my hearing gets a little fuzzy sometimes.

I need the sound to be pure and crisp, and I remember when I was shopping for a new stereo upon my return to the UK after life in Egypt, the sales assistant in John Lewis asked me to consider a speaker instead.

Now I am not the most technical person in the world and I couldn’t figure out what he meant.

Just a speaker?

What was he on about?

So I went with the flow, and he asked me what my favourite tune was.  I told him and then he played me the song through each speaker on display.

It was only when I heard the sound through the BOSE Mini SoundLink that I stopped and said “That one! I want that one!”

I didn’t know what make it was, didn’t know the price, I just knew the sound that had come out of this particular speaker, was music to my ears… especially as he was enjoying Morcheeba Enjoy the ride and had turned up the volume!

My BOSE has given my boys and I many years of pure sound quality whether it has been wild camping around the UK, laying on beaches in the different countries we have been too, or dancing around the house.

My time to BOSE has been in the bath soaking for hours on end, watching movies, listening to podcasts, dancing whilst doing the housework and celebrating the wins in life.

Having playlists on my laptop and phone, which I play through my beloved BOSE has enabled me to listen to music whilst I’ve been crossing oceans over the last 2 years.

And although this model of BOSE is not waterproof, it’s held up to the moisture in the air and the hardcore amount of moving about it has had to do as I sail around the world.

Now I am not sponsored by BOSE, they are not paying me to say any of this stuff, but I know one thing for sure, when I get my yacht, one of the first things I am going to do is request a full on BOSE sound system be installed above and below deck.

Trust me, there is nothing that comes close to BOSE, that I have heard anyway.

I am no sound engineer, nor am I a sound technician, but I LOVE music, and my music has got to sound great… otherwise it just doesn’t work.

My BOSE and I have been through a lot together.  It’s been with me when I have cried, laughed, meditated, celebrated and exercised.

It goes with me everywhere, and it gets charged at every given opportunity, because each and every time I get the chance to get my BOSE out, it comes out!

My BOSE has been with me for almost 6 years, and I have NEVER had a problem with it.  EVER.  It may get a little bit grubby every now and then, but nothing a spot of acetone free nail polish can’t clean up.  

And there are always speaker covers like this walnut one, which you can find on EBAY.

When I preparing to write the new workbook for the Feminine Alpha Author Course, I had a moment of panic.

My BOSE would not connect to my laptop, nor would it connect to my phone.  I’ve had to reset the memory before on the speaker, and eventually connected it to my phone, but for some reason it just won’t connect to my laptop.

The thought of not having my BOSE next to me whilst I write my articles and books, develop and build my business, well it’s just not something I want to think about to be honest.

When I found out BOSE had discontinued the Mini SoundLink back in 2018 I was not happy, and then I saw they had bought out the new SoundLink II in October 2019…

Phew! All is good in the world again, heart rate back to normal and on with the show as they say.

I mean let’s be honest, what is life without music?

Regardless of what kind of music you listen to, you want your music to sound good.

You want your music to be honoured, respected and delivered to your ears, your soul and match the beat of your heart in the best way possible.

And for me, that’s with a BOSE.

So ladies and gentleman of the jury, I highly recommend you go and get yourself some BOSE action, and remember, it doesn’t matter what time of the day or night it is, it is always TIME TO BOSE!

A word of warning though.. the sound quality will raise your standards and you will be investing in a piece of kit which is made to last.

There are other brands which say they deliver on quality, but I wouldn’t listen to them, listen to your own ears and go and blind test a BOSE, you’ll be glad you did!

I know I am!

Have an AWESOME weekend all of you!

Dance, sing and laugh to live always, because life is always so much more joyful when you do, especially when it’s time to BOSE!

Ciao! x

Ding! Dong! The Bitch is Dead!

Yep! You read that right.  The Bitch is dead!

Long gone are the days when the #BossBitch was the woman to follow in business. I mean who wants to be a bitch any way?

It is a nasty energy to sit in, and well… let’s be honest, anyone proud of being a bitch has got some deep healing to do.

There’s wounds to heal and an ego problem to go along with it, if you ask me; but as I have said before, this is only my opinion and as there are 6.9 billion in the world to choose from,  you are free to take your pick which one you listen to, or offer.

The idea that for a woman to be in businiess means she has to be a bitch is at least 20 years old, that I know of!

Women have more than moved on from the shoulders pads and breifcases, and sleeping their way to the top, wrecking marriages along the way; and being a #BossBitch to everyone who got in her way.

Today’s successful business leaders support other women, they build relationships with them, and they know that just because they celebrate another woman, it doesn’t mean she is any less successful. 

In fact, she is MORE successful!

And yet we STILL see women proudly owning the title of #BossBitch.

Why?

Why so eager to be known as a bitch? It has been a derogatory statement for as long as I have been alive, and to be quite frankly, it is an insult to the female dog from which it takes its name.

For those of us who own dogs, bitches in particular, we know they are protective of their owners, their home and of their significant other.

Those who have a dog and a bitch will know the bitch will turn on her own mate if he gets anywhere near the pups; and yet they will still snuggle up together and when one dies, the other one grieves deeply.

Over the last 5-10 years we have seen a huge shift in the way women are showing up in the world of business.  They are becoming more feminine, without being slutty.  They are using their intellect rather than their breasts to get ahead; and yet we are still seeing a huge gender gap when it comes to making money.

Quite frankly, we as women suck at asking for the sale.  We are so unsure of our worth, unsure of what prices to charge and yet we want a certain standard of life which means we live in struggle for a lot of the time.

AND THIS NEEDS TO STOP.

The only way it seeems, or so we are told by many of the online female business coaches, to have the life we want is to be a bitch.

I disagree, and so does Denise Duffield-Thomas who coaches from the space of being a lucky bitch.

But as she says, it has nothing to do with being lucky, or with being a bitch.

Did I just promote another woman on my page?

Someone who could take potential clients away from me?

Absolutely I did!

Because I am not in fear of losinng clients to Denise, because some people may not resonate with her, some may not resonate with me.

Plus there is so much abundance out there in the world, neither of us could possibly handle all the women in the world with our different coaching offers.

Heck our clients may even be the very same woman, just working on different areas of life.

And you know what, I LOVE her stuff! So why would I not share it here in my space?

I recommend films, I recommend cafes, I recommend all kinds of books, coaches and trainings, and just because I recommend Denise, doesn’t mean to say my clients will go running to her; and if they do, well then they do.

I am committed to my own goals, as are my clients.  They know when we work together they will get  amazing results; and fast.

Being a #BossBitch isn’t something to be proud of.

It isn’t appealing.

It isn’t feminine.

It isn’t even likeable.

So why, oh why do women still want to have the label? (Or the mug? There is a t-shirt to go with it too I hear).

Is it because they want people to know how tough they are?

Do they want people to know they are not to be messed with?

Do they really believe it is attractive?

Maybe they do, and many of the #BossBitches out there are doing incredibly well for themselves.

I just know that it is time we let go of the #BossBitch title and laid her to rest.  She served her purpose, but there is no future for the #BossBitch.

It is a borrowed term from the masculine world of patriachy and both modalities of thinking, behaving and being are over.

The Boss Bitch is dead, so let’s send her love, thank her for all she did and rise up in both a balance of feminine and masculine, embracing the Feminine Alpha within us.

No, not the masculine Alpha.  We have been in that zone for far too long as well.

We have entered the realm of the Feminine Alpha, a woman who is firmly in balance with all of who she is, and who knows when to be feminine and in flow, as well as when to hustle AND ask for everything she desires, without fear.

For there is no fear in the Feminine Alpha, because she knows, and trusts that everything is already hers, all she has to do is ask for it.

And on that note…

All you ladies out there with a creative vision for yourself and a group of ladies…

Who are looking to invest in yourself, improve your leadership skills, honour your boundaries, set new standards, receive money fast so you more than double your investment…

Ciao for now x
