Some of my most courageous moments have been where I have had to say… ‘It is not all as it seems on the outside, come in and have a look’ Invite people inside! The house that is your life….. in the midst of the worst of times I was looking at somebody’s else’s life and […]

Every morning as I drive to my 5.30am exercise class I see this man sweeping the pavement around the shops, getting it ready for when the coffee shops open and the chairs and tables get set up… He always seems so attentive to his work, so in the moment… and always when I drive past […]

We had a special guest in the room on Friday night for the ADULTS ONLY SHOW! It’s Thomas Kent! Well he is an adult now you know! He is not only a special guest… he chauffeured me here and is on the book table… yes friends… I have a ‘SHOW’… it’s a ‘TOUR’ and now […]

So I had a flight, cruise and walk booked to do today to Milford Sound in New Zealand… been on my bucket list to walk it over the 4 days, I don’t have time for that so thought this would be a great combination… well it was cancelled due to the weather… and although that was […]

Hi, friends, Julie Cross here. Back up on stage in Adelaide for the first show of the year. Looking forward to that. But I just thought I’d stop by first and have a little chat about service. I’m staying in this lovely hotel here in Glenelg, but I wanted to talk about another experience I […]
