A relationship is the dance between both partners. To create change together in couples therapy requires openness, understanding, vulnerability, accountability, commitment and teamwork from both partners.

It's not always easy or comfortable, but the positive shifts that can happen are priceless. Reach out if you need support for your relationship.

It's easy to miss these signs - to tell yourself you're fine and that you just need to get through this week, this month, until the next lot of holidays. And so you keep pushing, but the relief never comes.

You may tell yourself that this is just how life is, everyone else is in the same boat, and it's the only way to live. But I'm here to tell you it's not, and there is a way out so you don't get caught in cycles of burnout year after year.

If this resonates, come along and join us at The Regathering this month. Grab your ticket here - https://www.bluejaycounselling.au/event-details/worn-out-understanding-burnout-recovery

I am living proof that it is possible to step out of the cycle of chronic stress and burnout. But I had to change my mindset, explore what was underneath the need to be so busy, and then start making some changes… which felt drastic at the time, but ended up being the best thing I ever did.

At October’s we are discussing all things burnout - why it happens, understanding the warning signs, and how to recover and create change so you can stay out of the cycle of never ending stress and struggle.

Or reach out if you need 1:1 counselling support.

Real change isn’t about giant leaps or overnight transformations. It’s about the small, consistent choices we make every day, even when we don’t notice the shifts happening.

One mindful decision, one act of discipline, one moment of self-care at a time.

The change often feels invisible in the moment, but over time, your life will change - you will change, and that is worth the patience.

Today marks 17 years since my sister Jaye passed away.

These are our first and last photos together. Between them, there was a lot of trauma, pain, and suffering; but also so much fun, joy, giggling, and love.

Early in my grief journey, I used to really struggle with what was taken from me. It was incredibly hard to navigate such a difficult loss, and it took a long time to feel settled and comfortable in this new life without her.

Along the way, I made the conscious decision to live for the two little girls and young women in these photos. Jaye didn’t get to live this much of her life, so I’m determined to live mine fully - with intention, purpose, gratitude, and presence. Love and her memory continue to guide me, inspire me, and shape the way I show up in life, in my parenting, and in my work.

Grief is never simple. It doesn’t tie itself up neatly with time. It shifts, it teaches, it reshapes us. There is something vital in being with the pain rather than skipping over it - the insight, the understanding, and the depth that come from allowing yourself to feel, reflect, and grow within it.

What once felt like only emptiness can slowly open into something else - a sense of meaning, a deeper compassion for others, and a drive to live intentionally. Grief hasn’t only taken from me, it’s given me direction, a greater purpose, and a new view of life and the world. Jaye gave me that gift.

So, if you are walking through something heavy right now, my encouragement is this: keep showing up, keep feeling, keep being present with the journey - even in the parts that hurt the most, and even if you can’t see an outcome yet. There is something within the pain that shapes who you are, who you become, and the life you can create beyond it.

One quote that helped me through the hardest times and still guides me today is this: “Everything will be okay in the end. If it’s not okay, it’s not the end.”

Even in the middle of the hardest times, life can still surprise us, and can still be beautiful. Be open to all of the journey and see what you find. đź’ś

A regulated nervous system doesn’t mean never feeling stressed, anxious, or overwhelmed. It means your body can experience stress and then return to a place of calm and balance without getting stuck for too long.

This might look like:

- Feeling anger or fear without shutting down or lashing out
- Recovering from a difficult conversation without spiralling
- Feeling tired and choosing rest instead of pushing through
- Responding with intention instead of reacting automatically

Regulation isn’t about perfection, it’s about building resilience so you have the capacity to cope when things get hard.

Small, consistent practices like mindful breathing, grounding, gentle movement and connection with safe people can help your nervous system find its rhythm again.

If you'd like some help with this, I'd love to work with you.

You might have experienced something distressing in your past and never had flashbacks, nightmares, or panic attacks... or maybe you have experienced these symptoms but don't meet the criteria for PTSD.

And yet you can still be affected by these experiences. The impacts of traumatic events may show up in the way you behave, how you view the world, your interactions in relationships, and your beliefs.

You don’t need a PTSD diagnosis to start taking steps toward change. It is possible to learn to respond in healthier ways, build trust in yourself and others, and reconnect with what matters most.

Have you experienced any of these? If you need help changing these kinds of patterns in your life please reach out, I'd love to support you.
