About this book

Change is hard on the nerves, even when it is the right change. Small, Kind, Every Day is a pocket-sized companion from career coach Nell Ashworth: short reflections and one small, kind action for each day, from writing a thank-you note to a former boss to taking your lunch outside and eating it slowly. Gentle, a bit funny and meant to be read a page at a time with the first cup of tea.

Look inside · First chapter

Today, take your lunch outside and eat it slowly. Not at your desk, not in the car with the radio on, not standing at the counter scrolling through the news. Outside, on a bench or a wall or a step, for at least fifteen minutes. It sounds too small to matter, and that is precisely why it works. When everything feels uncertain, you need a few things that are certain and pleasant and entirely yours. A sandwich in the fresh air is a very good place to start.

A page with my tea

I read one each morning. It is the calmest ten minutes of the day.

Gentle

Small book, big effect. The thank-you note chapter made me cry a bit, which is fine.

About the author

Nell Ashworth

For twenty-two years I worked in HR for a large insurance company in Manchester. I ran restructures, wrote policies nobody read and sat across the table from a great many people on the worst day of their working lives. At forty-nine I sat on the other side of that table myself, and it was the best thing that ever happened to me, though it took a year to admit it. Now I coach people through career changes from my kitchen in Chorlton, with a lot of tea and a dog called Biscuit under the table. My books are short because my readers are busy. They are honest because I have had enough of the other kind.
