Our latest session is now live inside Alchemyze. This one isn’t about creating empowerment. That work began in the previous session on disempowerment.

In this session we prepared the astral body and anchored it in, so that what you’ve already started doesn’t fade when life gets busy or old patterns get triggered.

Because empowerment only lasts when the body can hold it, not just when the mind understands it.

We focused on:
• clearing the imprint left by long-term disempowerment
• releasing what no longer belongs
• reprogramming the astral field
• stabilising the empowered state in the nervous system
• restoring internal authority and a sense of wholeness

This is how the shifts you’ve already made don’t disappear… they settle, where insight becomes embodied change.

If you’re a member, you’ll find the replay inside Alchemyze now.

If you're not a member but would like information on Alchemyze to make 2026 a transformative year for your mind, body and soul, reach out x

I started my day with a client in Bali.

Her life has completely turned around. Everything is falling into place. Today’s session was about healing past identities, and showing those old versions of ourselves that life gets to be beautiful.

When I was 19, I was holding an object in my hands, ready to end it all.

I didn’t. I dropped it. And I broke down on the floor.

I had no hope. No vision of a future. No feeling that I mattered.

I was exhausted from pretending I was okay when I wasn’t. The mask was becoming heavier than the pain and it was steering me down a rocky road.

If you’re in that place right now, hear this: The part of you that thinks nothing will change is lying.

Time changes things. Choice changes things. One decision not to quit changes everything.

Following my heart didn’t ruin my life. No longer caring how I'd be judged gave me space to find myself. And choosing myself didn’t make me selfish, it saved me.

To some, I survived.
To me, I arrived.

And now I get to work with people while they remember who they are… and see them build lives they once couldn’t imagine surviving to see.

If you’re here, there is a reason. Even if you can’t see it yet.

Disempowerment doesn’t often slap you in the face.

It looks like putting things off. Going back and forth on decisions.

Waiting to feel more ready, clear or motivated before you move.

It’s the gap between what you know and what you actually do.

A lot of people assume that gap means they lack discipline or the right mindset.

But in our latest live session inside Alchemyze, we explored Disempowerment as a nervous system state.

When the body doesn’t feel safe to lead, thinking harder doesn’t help. Planning more doesn’t help. Positive self-talk doesn’t help.

Because real momentum starts in the body. In rebuilding a sense of steadiness, choice and internal authority.

That’s what our Power Retrieval session was designed for.

Not to push you into action, but to help you return to self-led movement in a way your nervous system can actually sustain.

If you recognise the pattern of wanting to move forward, but feeling internally stuck or hesitant, this session is for you.

The replay is now available inside Alchemyze.

This is what happens when you stop trying to push forward…

…and instead remove what’s been weighing you down.

Most people don’t lack motivation. They lack regulation, safety and emotional space.

When those return, movement becomes natural. Decisions become clearer. The next step stops feeling heavy.

If you’ve been feeling stuck, foggy or disconnected from yourself, it’s a signal.

And it can change.

If things feel blocked, slow or restricted, read this.

There are times when life creates a strange tension.

Wanting progress but meeting delays. Wanting clarity but feeling paused. Wanting momentum but hitting invisible walls.

This can feel frustrating or heavy but you've got to trust the sacred pause.

Not all growth comes from movement.

Some of the deepest change comes from being reshaped while nothing seems to be happening.

This is the kind of energy that quietly says “Not yet. Sit here. Let me reorganise you.”

You might notice:
• plans stalling
• motivation dipping
• melancholy or low mood
• irritation at limitations
• a desire to control everything (or give up completely)
• questioning your direction

This means something new is forming BUT it requires a different structure than the old one.

Growth is not always loud. Sometimes it’s architectural.

It happens in the quiet recalibration.

In the space between actions.

In the uncomfortable pause.

If you try to force your way through this phase, it often shows up as burnout, anger, rigid control, chaos or abandoning things that actually matter.

The wiser path?

Acceptance.

Not giving up, but standing steady in trust.

Working with reality instead of fighting it.

Building better foundations instead of demanding faster results.

Letting life show you what is sustainable.

Some doors only open when the room is rebuilt and sometimes limitation isn’t punishment. It’s protection while something stronger is being made.

Here I am, almost 30 years ago, at Offshore Festival in Torquay.

Here's what I admire about her.

She walked away from all relationships that were conditional.

She gave zero f***s about what anyone thought of her.

Here's what I wished she knew.

That there were people she could have spoken to.

That she was beautiful.

That God wasn't a man in the sky and that she turned her back on a man-made organisation, not "the truth" as she was programmed to believe.

Here’s why its all perfect.

I understand first hand trauma based programming and how to heal from it.

I've experienced first hand how misalignment shows up in the body and in our behaviours.

I understand I came here to experience abandonment so I could learn how to live authentically and that this soul contract is now complete.

I learnt first hand that NOTHING is withheld from us when we allow ourselves to become an energetic match to it.

That fearless, misunderstood girl wasn't lost. She was preparing me for this life.

You can’t read the meaning of a story while you’re still inside the chapter.

Meaning only becomes clear once the chapter closes.

This is something I’ve had to learn, and it’s been deeply regulating to understand.

When you’re inside a situation, a relationship, a friendship, a dynamic, your nervous system isn’t analysing for “signs.”

It’s doing what it’s designed to do: maintain connection, coherence and safety.

So behaviours don’t register as red flags yet.

They register as context.

As stress.

As misunderstanding.

As “maybe I’m reading too much into this.”

Envy doesn’t look like envy while it’s forming.

Control doesn’t look like control while it’s subtle.

Withdrawal doesn’t look like withdrawal while there’s still contact.

They only become signs once the pattern has completed.

Only after the dynamic ends does your system have enough distance to organise the events into a sequence and go “Oh, that comment wasn’t random.”, “That concern wasn’t care.”, “That distancing wasn’t circumstantial.”

This isn’t denial.

It isn’t naivete.

It isn’t a lack of intuition.

It’s how the human nervous system works.

Meaning is constructed after outcome, not during uncertainty.

And this matters because so many people turn hindsight into self blame.

“I should have seen it sooner.”

“I ignored the signs.”

“I didn’t trust myself.”

But the truth is:

There were no signs yet, only behaviours that hadn’t revealed their pattern.

You responded appropriately with the information you had at the time.

Understanding this is what allows the body to finally relax.

To stop replaying.

To stop monitoring.

To restore self trust.

The chapter didn’t make sense while you were living it.

It was never meant to.

Clarity comes with closure.

And that doesn’t mean you failed, it means the story finally finished telling you what it was.

This new year’s day feels different.

In the past, my new years have been opportunities to align deeper into my desires, what I’m choosing to partner with or devote energy toward.

But this year there’s a settled feeling in my body that doesn’t need direction.

There's a sense that life and I have been in deep conversation. That whatever wants to align will do so through me living life in my truest and purest form.

I’ve been trusting curiosity, gently peeling back beliefs and allowing what’s true to keep revealing itself.

And what I do know is, this year feels like something I keep inhabiting...my energy and frequency.

And for the first time, that feels more than enough.

48 laps around the sun and I can see I'm in a beautiful dance with life.

2025

What a year.

Thank you to everyone who trusted the nudge and reached out to me over the past year.

I've received some really beautiful messages from clients this year and I want to remind you that its YOU who did the work!

You reached out, you were ready to leave behind the energy that wasn't serving you and you took on the guidance that came from your session.

So I finish the year celebrating you, and yes, I'm celebrating me too.

This year I added 6 new certifications to my belt. What can I say....I like to learn but this was a little to much to manage at times and I won't ever do that to myself again 😆

Connections with past mentors deepened and evolved into friendships. Interestingly, both of these powerful women also found their way out of the same cult I was in. Life has a way of weaving stories and bringing your people to you. I've seen this in different ways over the years with beautiful friendships I've made.

An old love reignited and from that space .jewellery was born.

I created a new home for Alchemyze, complete with a back office housing over 200GB of resources 🤭

My biggest awareness this year was the importance of prioritising my energy and taking full responsibility for my frequency.

The result?

I landed even deeper into my gifts ✨️

And finally, to all my new followers, welcome.

This space is for those who feel the nudge for change, who sense their body has answers, and who are ready to move forward with clarity and alignment.

If you’re seeking direction, feeling unsure, or wanting deeper insight into what your body is communicating, I invite you into a free Soul Strategy Call. It’s a powerful way to gain clarity and reconnect with your inner guidance.

Wishing you all a really special 2026 ❤️

It just so happens that the summer solstice is when plants are thought to hold the most potent medicinal and magical properties.

Today I thought I was getting a rosemary cutting from my Dad. What I got turned out to be huge branches of rosemary.

So since it's solstice in the southern hemisphere today, I'll be bundling these up as my next batch of smudge sticks.

Love the way the universe always has my back.

Happy Solstice 🌿

When spirit collaborate...

Today at the end of our live session inside Alchemyze, as I shared a card to wrap it all up, spirit chose this song (you'll need the sound on for the video, it's not a video of me looking at the camera 😆)

On point with the card message and the theme of the session.
