The other day a client remarked that they left work depressed every weekday and thought about work more than they cared to admit. 

We've all had jobs that leave us ranting and raving well into our non-work time or ruminating over difficult conversations, mistakes or what might have been. 

Even jobs and businesses we love can take over our time off!

Some people argue that it's okay to think about work all the time if you love it, but I believe that no matter the quality of your working life, you need to switch off and live a life outside of work. 

Happily, I'm supported by a range of research on that!

So how do we go about kicking work out of our heads and making the most of our time off?

There's no denying that when you feel foxy and sparky on the outside you also get an internal boost.

It feels awesome when your outside represents your glorious inside. 

The thing is that dressing for work can be so soul sucking. So many spoken and unspoken rules hemming in (boom boom) us all. 

So what is the secret to feeling awesome in what you adorn yourself with each day?

This week something inside me snapped. I woke up inside when I heard Ched Myers talk about 'how domesticated' we had all become.

I interpreted it his comment as saying we had become so passive, submissive and docile socially and politically.

How we had started to prefer thinking hopeful thoughts over acting to promote hope-filled action and outcomes.

We are thinking and acting like children, rather than adults.
