If magic tricks leave you feeling a little uneasy

If magic tricks leave you feeling a little uneasy too, but can’t work out why, then I explore what maybe behind it. If you missed the post earlier this week, here’s the full blog version complete with cartoon. 4-minute read.

When I was 15, I struggled with everything, school

When I was 15, I struggled with everything, school, home life, identity, self-acceptance, the works. All I wanted, was to matter to someone, but at that time I didn’t.
So, when I wrote Magnificent Mistakes and Fantastic Failures, I was able to give my 15-year-old self the message he really needed to hear - ‘You are important to the world’.
It was also a chance to tell every other child who was struggling the same message and hopefully they would start to believe it.

I've always wondered why I don't like magic tricks

I've always wondered why I don't like magic tricks. Now I know. I often have to write about things to better understand them. 👇

I’m not a big fan of magic tricks.

For me, they’re like a joke a without a punchline.

While I enjoy the spectacle, I want to know how they did it.

However, I’m usually left in no man’s land, suspended between awe and curiosity and neither have been satisfied.

I know most people are totally cool with the showmanship and the wow factor and couldn’t care less about the mechanics that go on behind the scenes to create the illusion, but I’m not....here's why... KEEP READING

This life is short and it’s way too easy to get

This life is short and it’s way too easy to get caught up in the day-to-day stresses of life and forget the really important stuff.

Coming from an adult perspective and looking back at what would have made my life better growing up, I know exactly what it would be.

It’s messages like this:
• Being you is enough
• It’s Ok to be different
• Every ‘body’ is just fine
• No-one is perfect
• How to make friends with yourself
• You are important to the world
• Understanding and making friends with big emotions
• Seeing opportunities in mistakes and failures

I know every family and situation is different, but some themes are universal, like the ones above. That’s why they feature so heavily in my books, video programs and school talks.

And I talk about them all the time. Repetition is the key to learning.
As they say, practise makes progress!
And I make it super easy for adults to talk to about them with kids, that’s my superpower!

And this is what kids are so good at… reminding

And this is what kids are so good at… reminding of what really matters. When we look into the eyes of a child, we not only see them, but we see our own inner child, and they both only want to be loved. That’s what really matters in the end.

“Always remember, it’s OK to feel the way you

“Always remember, it’s OK to feel the way you do. You are beautiful, so are your feelings.” - It’s the perfect message for kids so they can start to be ok with their feelings and for parents to do the same. It doesn’t have to be complicated or hard. Just read a book together and have wonderful conversations that arise from it.

Thank you to @laurengibson.art for loving the mojo

Thank you to @laurengibson.art for loving the mojo book as much as you do. ❤️

"Read this yesterday, you know how much I take away from a book when I decide to take to it with a highlighter & post it notes because then it's staying in my permanent collection. I knew when I listened to you talk that we were on a similar wavelength & this book really solidified that, you discuss effective but simple (& achievable) concepts with kindness & compassion. You're a gift to our generation of children. We'll done."

That time a politician read my book on feelings. 👀

It was 2021 when Story Box Library featured, then Victorian Health Minister Martin Foley, reading It’s OK to Feel the Way You Do. If that wasn’t cool enough, he also did a reading of Magnificent Mistakes and Fantastic Failures, however that had a quiet release.

Both are available on @storyboxlibrary for teachers to show their kids before school breaks up.
