January 1 is guaranteed.
Newness is not.
Every year, we place enormous hope on the turning of the calendar — as if time itself will do the work of change for us. But real transformation doesn’t come from dates, declarations, or resolutions. It comes from a subtle inner decision: to relate to ourselves differently.
I wrote this piece as a reflection on what truly makes a year new — beyond goals, urgency, or performance. It’s about presence, intentional endings, and choosing who we are when no one is watching.
If you’re entering this year with a quiet sense that something deeper is asking for your attention, this may resonate.

Why a new year doesn’t change your life — but one conscious shift can.

Christmas isn’t asking us to do more.
It’s inviting us to be more present.
I shared a reflection on what Christ might say to our world today — about peace, presence, and becoming the light we’re searching for.

Be the Light You Are Searching For

Most people think defeat comes from the outside — a failed deal, a missed opportunity, a setback we couldn't avoid.
But the deepest form of defeat actually begins within us.
In my latest article, I explore the defeatist mindset, the subtle ways it shows up, the degrees it grows through, and the surprising opposite of it — a quiet inner victory that doesn’t depend on winning or losing.
If you’ve ever felt like you’ve held yourself back, talked yourself down, or dimmed your own potential… this piece will speak to you.
And in the end, I dive into something even more powerful:
the liberation that comes when we release our attachment to both success and failure.

The Moment Everything Changes: How Your Mind Moves You From Depression to Freedom
I wrote this piece with intention, depth, and honesty — exploring the hidden mechanics of the mind and that pivotal moment when a person shifts from feeling stuck, heavy, or lost… to feeling possibility, clarity, and freedom again.
This article is designed to feel hypnotic, reflective, and awakening.
It exposes both sides of the mind — the darkness that pulls us down, and the inner power that can rise stronger than anything we've faced.
If you or someone you know is navigating a difficult chapter, this might be the moment everything begins to shift.

🌟 Why I Believe I Was Selected — Without Ever Applying 🌟
I recently found out that Influence Digest Media listed me among the Top 15 Coaches in Perth — completely unexpectedly. I wasn’t nominated, I didn’t apply, and I wasn’t even aware the list was being compiled.
So I’ve been reflecting on why I might have been chosen.
I believe it comes down to a few things:
1. Consistency of purpose:
For years I’ve focused on one mission: helping people find clarity, courage, and alignment in their lives. I’ve tried to show up authentically, whether in sessions, writing, speaking, or simply having real conversations.
2. Sharing my journey openly:
My own journey — including battles and rebuilding my life with purpose — has shaped the way I coach. I think people resonate with honesty, vulnerability, and lived experience.
3. Serving, not selling:
I’ve never chased accolades. I’ve simply aimed to serve the people who come to me. Sometimes doing the work quietly speaks louder than seeking attention.
4. A growing digital footprint:
Between my book, interviews, articles, and online content, perhaps my story and work reached the right people at the right time.
Whatever the reason, I’m grateful.
Recognition is never the goal — impact is.
Thank you again to Influence Digest Media for the acknowledgement, and to everyone who trusts me with their growth. I’m honoured to walk this path with you.

Perth, with its golden beaches, vibrant neighborhoods, and creative, collaborative residents, offers an inspiring backdrop for personal and professional growth. In this dynamic city, coaching helps individuals and teams unlock their potential, overcome challenges, and achieve meaningful goals. Here,...

Trusting the Spirit Within

Have you ever noticed how sometimes you wake up right before your alarm — as if something inside you already knew the time?
That same quiet intelligence is guiding us through so much more than we realize. When we learn to trust it, life begins to flow with ease and timing we could never plan.
I shared a personal reflection about this on Medium today — a gentle reminder to trust more and worry less.

Trusting the intelligence that moves life — even when we’re asleep.

I had a realisation this week that even when we get things “wrong,” there’s often something very right hidden inside the experience — if we stay humble and open enough to see it.

My business partner and I were looking at a property, and he kept mentioning that it was under a different council than what I’d found on Google. I ended up calling the wrong council — but that “mistake” led to a surprising discovery: we could actually do something temporarily for a month without a permit.

Had I not called the wrong council, we never would’ve known that.

It reminded me that every misstep can hold value when approached with curiosity instead of self-criticism.
Mistakes aren’t failures — they’re feedback.
And feedback is how we grow.

I’m learning that mistakes aren’t proof that we’re failing — they’re proof that we’re learning. Every time I let go of the ego that says “I should’ve known better,” I discover new insights that move me forward faster than if I’d tried to get it perfect from the start.
The key isn’t to avoid mistakes but to meet them with curiosity and grace. That’s how failure transforms into wisdom.

“Our most basic instinct is not for survival but for family." – Paul Pearsall

I’ve always felt this truth deeply. From walking my younger sisters to school as a child, to dreaming of the family I would one day raise, I’ve known that love and connection are what give life meaning. Survival keeps us alive—but family gives us a reason to live.

When most people think about the word instinct, the first thing that comes to mind is survival. Fight or flight. The drive to eat, drink, protect ourselves, and continue our existence. But if we look…

✨ New Article Alert ✨
I just published The Mirror of Feeling: How Your Inner State Shapes Your Outer World.
This piece explores a powerful truth: the reality we experience is often a direct reflection of our inner state. When we cultivate gratitude, peace, and joy, life mirrors it back. When we dwell in fear, frustration, or scarcity, we see more of that reflected around us.

Your inner world is not just a private space—it’s the blueprint for the life you live. 🪞🌱

Imagine walking through life surrounded by an invisible mirror — one that doesn’t reflect your physical appearance, but the state of your heart. If you carry gratitude, the mirror gleams back…

We don’t really fall in love with another person—we fall in love with the version of ourselves they help us remember.
This piece is close to my heart. It’s about how real love holds a mirror to our soul, helps us grow, and reconnects us to the light we forgot.

Meet Jules Aknin a French-born entrepreneur who came to Australia as a student and quietly became one of the most community-driven people I’ve ever met.

From creating a café that felt more like a community hub, to helping feed the homeless, to now building a startup that’s supported thousands of international students… Jules didn’t just build businesses. He built belonging.

I wrote this article to shine a light on the kind of leadership that doesn’t shout but shows up — every single day.
