Not phoning my mum the day she died. It crossed my mind, I thought I’d put if off to the evening. That was too late.

Working so hard. Don’t know how to get off treadmill. Desperately want to spend more time with my kids before too late. Already regret it.

Not learning to play a musical instrument. I tried the cello at school but, as I’m only 5′ tall, it was bigger than me. Couldn’t lift it.

Double edged sword: not pursuing my career dream but have 3 beautiful girls to show for it. I’m 45 now & it’s too late, but not for my kids.

Not realising sooner that one man’s awful actions didn’t have to break me. Now realising I am actually stronger. Ready to find The One now.
