Hello my loves,
I think it's time for me to post to let you know that I am still here and ready to open my doors again.
I am so very sorry for being so absent on my socials. As we all know, life can throw us some curve balls and sometimes we just need to take time in order to heal and process.
A lot has happened since I last posted and I have been given some huge hurdles to overcome....
In August 2023 I supported my partner in a massive court battle where she was up in the stand for 7 days. For those that don't know, my partner has a condition called 'Non Epileptic Dissociate Disorder'. This means she suffers from seizures triggers by stress and emotional trauma. As you can imagine, court for her was incredibly stressful and with in that 7 days, she suffered from a total of 13 seizures. But.... she is an absolute weapon and despite all of the side effects this caused she pushed through and won! In December 2023, came sentencing and all of her hard work, determination and will power paid off and justice was finally served. A perpetrator was sentenced the 16 years behind bars.
Early 2024 was all about healing and overcoming the stress we had endured. We made the decision to pack up our home and relocate to a new suburb and start a new chapter by moving into a new home early June 2024. And then my world came crashing down....
On the 22nd of June 2024, I lost someone very close to my heart and it affected my entire family. My beautiful Grandmother took her last breath in her home of 40+ years. She was ready to go and be at peace but our family and our hearts were certainly not.
Throughout my life I have seen people come and go. I have said final goodbyes to many loved ones but never ones this close to my heart. This has been my very first experience with grief and it has been a huge challenge for me to overcome. However, I know my Grandma well and she would not want me to stay in the grief and she would be telling me to 'pull my socks up and get on with it'. Sooo despite still processing my grief and my emotions (which i still have my days), thats what I did....
In August 2024, I finally got to marry the love of my life, my better half and my best friend. Together with our nearest and dearest we shared our vows and said I do and celebrate the night away. The day was perfect and I know my angel above played her part in making the day perfect for us.
September 2024 I faced some health issues that I am still trying to get to the bottom of. I am ok and will be ok but these issues have played a part in my absence.
November 2024 I changed careers and started a new job in the medical profession and am absolutely loving it. After 20 years I finally said goodbye to retail and boy oh boy what a great decision that has been for my mental health.
So now that pretty much brings us to today....
I'm not writing this post looking for sympathy or for anyone to feel a certain way towards the hurdles and life lessons I have has to overcome. Because they are exactly that, MY LIFE LESSONS.
This is just a reminder that we are all human and life and sometimes hand you one lemon or a whole dang bucket. The question is, are you going to sit and suck on the lemons and be sour or, are you going to juice those bad boys for all their worth and make lemonade????
I'm choosing lemonade...
2025 is turning around and I am working on some new projects to launch and will be relaunching my art workshops and will be back opened for healing sessions very soon.
If you are still with me, thank you. Thank you for reading, for understanding and for being you.
Much love xx
