This is how God speaks to me. This is intuition.” Take command of your authority. AUTHORity starts with “AUTHOR” for a reason. I’ve written and published 3 books, my most recent one being Date Yourself Well. It became an Amazon #1 Best-Seller in 3 days! I learned a lot from this experience, and one of them was how to own my authority. Here’s how to OWN your authority, like a Boss. 2019-04-0812 minWOMEN SIPPING ON LIFE (with doctor shannon)WOMEN SIPPING ON LIFE (with doctor shannon)How To Take IT To The Next LevelKim McMillen said, “When I loved myself enough I began walking and taking the stairs every change I get, and choosing the scenic route.” YOU must take YOU to the next level. STEP UP. In order to do this, you must show up. How are you showing up and who are you showing up as? Who are you? Now it’s time to STEP that UP. 1. Show UP. 2. Speak UP. 3. Stand UP. SO YOU CAN STEP UP. You were never...2019-04-0709 minWOMEN SIPPING ON LIFE (with doctor shannon)WOMEN SIPPING ON LIFE (with doctor shannon)Stop Forcing Yourself To Do This
FORCE. Stop trying to force yourself, or anyone else, into doing something you, he, or she are not ready to do. Kim McMillan reminds us, “When I loved myself enough I began seeing the abuse in trying to force something or someone who isn’t ready — including me.” Abusive? Aggressive? Assertive? Attentive? There's no need to force it. It’s all in good time. If it’s out of time, it’s abuse. If it’s a hard time, it’s aggressive. If it’s ahead of time, it’s...2019-04-0607 minWOMEN SIPPING ON LIFE (with doctor shannon)WOMEN SIPPING ON LIFE (with doctor shannon)How To Be Responsibly FreeKim McMillan said it best, “When I loved myself enough I stopped blaming myself for choices I had made — which made me feel safe and I took responsibility for them.” Own your choices. Own your own forgiveness. F.R.E.E. Forget to get Remember to be reminded Engage to be MERRY’D. Empathize to empower.

Yes, that’s right. When you want to stop simply “managing” and begin “leading” your time and life, you’ll begin leading your team by holding regular TEAM MEETINGS
 Kim McMillan said it well, “When I loved myself enough I began feeling a community within. This inner team with diverse talents and idiosyncrasies is my strength and my potential. We hold team meetings.” Here’s how... Recognize your T.E.A.M. Time. Energy. And. Money. Then go deeper...2019-04-0412 minWOMEN SIPPING ON LIFE (with doctor shannon)WOMEN SIPPING ON LIFE (with doctor shannon)“Trying” Is Making Your Life Trying
Stop TRYING. And stop trying so hard. Kim McMillan found out “When I loved myself enough I quit exhausting myself by trying so hard.” Trying is exhausting. It’s not expressing. Watch someone who’s “trying” and you’ll see no action or action with NO results. It’s exhausting. Stop exhausting yourself and others, dear soul. When we stop trying, we can start doing — with ease, expression, and exponential results. It's time to redefine T.R.Y. and find your DO within you. T.R.Y.

I am learning to trust this and live from it.” There is a Divine Presence within you. YOU. ARE. DIVINE. God, the Creator of the Universe, made YOU in His own image. Do you know what this means? It means that you were designed in the IMAGE OF LOVE. YOU are made with the DNA OF DIVINE LOVE. That’s incredible. That’s genetically genius, right? And so a...2019-04-0210 minWOMEN SIPPING ON LIFE (with doctor shannon)WOMEN SIPPING ON LIFE (with doctor shannon)How To Start Your Passion ProjectI agree. It's time for some PASSION! So let’s get down to business. Let’s stop the busy-ness and nonsense. Let’s get to the heart of your matter. The value of YOU. And begin investing your value with your very own PASSION PROJECT.

and instead began to explore your WHOLE self. To love every piece of your wholeness. Every square inch of YOU. Perhaps you’re feeling broken, but guess what my dear? You’re hurting, yes

Where and/or in whom are you putting your trust? Do you trust yourself, and are you trustworthy? TRUST YOUR S.A.F.E. Security. Insecurity? Attention. Giving yourself attention. Attending to your heart and soul. Fearlessness. Fearless isn’t being without fear. It’s fearing less. Engagement.

Kim McMillan said, “When I loved myself enough I learned to ask, ‘Who in me is feeling this way?” when I feel anxious, angry, restless or sad. If I listen patiently I discover who needs my love.” IF we listen patiently, we'll discover... IF we listen with our heart. Who is speaking? Is she the little girl? Is she the teenager?

This is a profound act of self love.” L. O. V. E. Listen and receive. Open up and receive. Visualize and receive. Engage and receive. What meditation is NOT?

Since its inception in 2005, The Monthly has been one of the few Australian publications to strongly invest in longform journalism. Each month, the magazine publishes a handful of essays from some of Australia's best writers and critics, which regularly run in excess of 5,000 words apiece. Because of this dedication to funding and promoting serious journalism that concerns the nation's culture and politics, The Monthly has built a large and devoted base of subscribers and readers. Nick Feik has been in the editor's chair since April 2014, after joining the magazine's publi...2017-09-201h 08PenmanshipPenmanshipEpisode 38: Marcus TeagueMarcus Teague is an editor, freelance writer, songwriter and musician. His contribution to Australian music journalism during the last decade has been significant. After co-founding a magazine and website devoted to independent music named Mess+Noise, Marcus went on to work as music editor at The Vine for six years from 2008. Under his editorial guidance, this pop culture-centric website became one of the most popular and respected outlets for music writing in the country. It also provided a regular home for thoughtful, longform journalism and criticism for many freelance writers, myself included. Writing for Marcus at The Vin...2017-06-141h 49PenmanshipPenmanshipEpisode 36: John ClarkeJohn Clarke was a freelance writer, performer and author. John died suddenly on Sunday, 9 April 2017, aged 68. I had spoken to him a few days beforehand, and we had made plans to record a conversation for this podcast while I was visiting Melbourne that weekend. Since that cannot happen, I am bringing you a special episode based on a day that I spent with John in November 2014, when I was reporting a story for The Weekend Australian Review about the creative process behind Clarke & Dawe, the weekly political satire program that John wrote and performed alongside longtime collaborator...2017-04-191h 48PenmanshipPenmanshipEpisode 35: Amelia LesterAmelia Lester is the editor of Good Weekend. For the first episode of 2017, I could think of few more qualified guests than Amelia Lester. Penmanship is all about exploring the gritty details of how to build a life around working with words, and Amelia has done just that at the very highest level of magazine publishing. After graduating from Harvard University, she worked at a literary agency for a year and then achieved her dream of working at The New Yorker, which has long been regarded as one of the leading homes for longform journalism in the Engli...2017-03-151h 26PenmanshipPenmanshipEpisode 33: Holly ThrosbyHolly Throsby is a songwriter, musician and author.

In 2010, she joined forces with her friends Sarah Blasko and Sally Seltmann to form the indie pop group Seeker Lover Keeper, which released one album the following year. In 2016, she became an author: her first novel was published in September by Allen & Unwin.

Last year, ABC television screened her three-part documentary series The Killing Season, which examined the forces that shaped the Australian Labor Party during the recent years in which Kevin Rudd and Julia Gillard led the party, and the nation. Based on Sarah's lengthy and insightful interviews with key political players, and filmed with the drama and style of the Netflix series House Of Cards, it was pitch-perfect television that resonated strongly across the country, attracting around a million viewers each episode. The series further established Sarah's reputation as one of Austra...2016-06-1532 minPenmanshipPenmanshipEpisode 24: Benjamin LawBenjamin Law is an author, freelance journalist, columnist and screenwriter. Since I first ventured into full-time freelance journalism in 2009, he's been someone that I've greatly admired, not only for his ability to write well across a range of publications and styles, but also for the simple fact that he's a generous and enthusiastic supporter of other writers. I first met him in early 2010, when I emailed him to introduce myself and ask for a meeting, and from that point, he has remained as a firm friend and mentor. I interviewed him for The Courier-Mail that same year, for...2016-05-181h 16PenmanshipPenmanshipEpisode 23: Anne SummersAnne Summers is an author, journalist, editor, publisher and columnist. The fact that I need to use five adjectives to accurately describe her role in Australian writing culture speaks volumes about Anne's impact, influence and ability. To my knowledge, she is the first guest of Penmanship to appear on an Australian postage stamp, as part of a series celebrating Australian legends in 2011. Her career began with the publication of an ambitious and controversial book named Damned Whores and God's Police in 1975.

Like John Birmingham, he's a man who can alternate between writing fiction and non-fiction with apparent ease. I first met Matthew in 2010 when I interviewed and profiled him for The Weekend Australian Review, around the release of his excellent book Brisbane, which offered a unique and literary insight into the city where he grew up and later returned to while raising his family.

Since I began venturing into freelance journalism six years ago, John has loomed large in my life.

I read his journalism in magazines like The Monthly, his online columns on Brisbane Times, his cannabis travelogue Dopeland and his collection of essays with the memorable title, Off One’s Tits.
