We want to live a deeply satisfying life with fulfilled goals and dreams.

Unfortunately, pushing past problems, stepping out of our comfort zone and sticking to the habits needed to move us forward isn’t easy!

Can you relate?

Hi! I'm Noella

Faced with my own limitations, I saw that personal growth is the key to achieving success, so I’ve spent the last 20+ years researching and writing on it.

In recent years, I’ve discovered that our mindsets, beliefs and thought habits have the most effect on all our self-development efforts. If we don’t have the right foundations in those things, we'll struggle to see real change, so that’s where my key focus is now.

What I’ve found has been absolutely life-changing and I’m on a mission to share it  to help others get the most out of life!

I believe these concepts should be taught as early as possible, so I love to help parents and teachers learn them so they can pass it on to kids!

A Little About Me:

Personal Journey:

For many years I struggled with a poor self-image and lack of confidence in my abilities, which led to procrastination, avoidance and lack of consistency in the habits I needed for success. I had talent and many ideas - so many projects started, but not finished! (Typical creative, right?)

I knew a lot about a lot of things, but wasn’t good at taking action on them! I am still very much in the process of renewing my mind and overcoming unhelpful thinking and habit patterns – but I am moving forward. I keep learning and growing!

As they say, “If you’re not green and growing – you’re red, ripe and dying!” - quote attributed to Ray Kroc, founder of McDonald’s.

Some Personal Growth Quotes to Think on:

“Personal development is a major time-saver. The better you become, the less time it takes you to achieve your goals.” - Brian Tracey, motivational speaker and author of books on goal setting and personal success

“Growth is the great separator between those who succeed and those who do not. When I see a person beginning to separate themselves from the pack, it’s almost always due to personal growth.” - John C Maxwell, Author and Leadership expert

“We can’t become what we need to be by remaining what we are.” – Oprah Winfrey, American talk show host, television producer, actress and author

My personal favorite:

"... but be transformed (changed) by the [entire] renewal of your mind [by its new ideals and its new attitude]..." - Romans 12:2 Amplified Classic
