It’s time. 🧘🏿‍♀️

Empathy should never require you to excuse disrespect.

I used to tell myself maybe they are going through something. I said it to soften the hurt and make sense of behavior that did not feel right. I gave people grace before they ever earned it. I explained their actions for them, hoping understanding would turn into respect.

But then I realized something that changed everything. I was going through a lot too. I was tired, overwhelmed, hurting in ways no one could see. And still, I never chose to be cruel. I never made my pain someone else’s problem. I still showed kindness, patience, and basic decency.

That is when it clicked. Struggling does not give anyone permission to mistreat others. Pain explains behavior, but it does not excuse it. There is a difference between having a hard time and choosing to hurt someone because of it.

Learning this taught me to stop over empathizing at my own expense. Compassion is beautiful, but not when it costs you your self respect. You can understand someone’s pain and still decide you do not deserve to be treated that way. And that realization is where boundaries begin.

✨ Your 2026 Pillars: The Blueprint for Your Year ✨

Before we chase goals, we need structure that holds us.
That’s what I call your pillars:
The three foundational supports for your year — the framework that keeps your energy, nervous system, and intentions anchored.

Your pillars aren’t about perfection or rigidity.
They’re about:
– How you work
– How you rest
– How you return to yourself
…so you can navigate life with clarity, confidence, and devotion.

When you define your pillars, you stop outsourcing safety, direction, and validation to external circumstances.
You stop collapsing when life doesn’t match your fantasy.
You stay whole, grounded, and free to run with the momentum of 2026 — the Year of the Horse.

💛 If you’re ready to consciously create your year,

Spots are limited and my prices go up in two weeks.

2026 doesn’t need another version of you coping.
It needs a version of you rooted, resourced, and self-led.

Before the year begins, I always ask:
Where did my energy leak last year?
Where did I collapse, overreach, or outsource my safety?
Where did I live in fantasy instead of presence?

Structure isn’t rigidity.
It’s the container that lets your nervous system relax.

When you consciously choose your pillars —
how you work, rest, relate, and return to yourself —
you stop reacting to life
and start meeting it from wholeness.

This year isn’t about chasing.
It’s about creating a rhythm that can hold you
as you expand, love, adventure, and live differently.

If you’re ready to set up 2026 with clarity, devotion, and self-respect —
to build the internal masculine that keeps you grounded
instead of reaching outside yourself —
this work is for you.

Gary Craig gave the world a gift that asked for nothing in return. Through EFT, he shared a simple yet profound pathway back to emotional freedom, empowerment, and self-healing—one that anyone could learn, use, and pass on. His generosity of spirit, his insistence on accessibility, and his willingness to give freely changed countless lives across the globe.

EFT has helped people soften pain, release trauma, reconnect to themselves, and remember their innate capacity to heal. Gary’s legacy lives not just in the technique itself, but in the way he offered it—open-handed, unguarded, and for the benefit of humanity.

May we continue to give as he did.
May we share without fear of lack.
May we honour his work by using EFT with integrity, compassion, and humility.

And may we celebrate, again and again, the profound impact of Emotional Freedom Techniques—one tap, one breath, one moment of freedom at a time.

What I am seeing within humanity is that the shadow is the unconscious driver of suffering. The shadow itself is not the problem - our relationship to it is. The shadow doesn’t want to be destroyed. It wants to be seen. So my question to you is: Are you willing to meet the parts if you that shaped your patterns - not shame them? Is this work calling you? Let me know! Xo

✨ Welcoming a new year, a new cycle, and a deeper level of consciousness ✨

This year isn’t about becoming someone new.
It’s about meeting the parts of you that have been waiting to be seen.

The patterns.
The triggers.
The quiet shadows that shape your relationships, choices, and nervous system.

When we do the inner work — not to “fix” ourselves, but to understand ourselves — something shifts. Individually. Collectively.

As we step into this new year, I’m opening space for those ready to do this work consciously and with support.

Please note: from the end of the month my session fees will be increasing.
If you’ve been feeling the nudge, now is the time to step forward and secure your place at the current rate.

Let’s raise the conscious collective — one brave choice at a time.

There comes a moment in every women’s healing journey where she wakes up and says….I will no longer accept crumbs, because crumbs won’t fill me up. I need a meal. So I’m going to fill my own damn plate…and I’m going back for seconds. This is what loving without losing yourself looks like. You don’t shrink to be chosen. You choose you first - and then you let someone meet you there. This is the Blueprint of Self-partnering: wholeness, worthiness, no crumbs. Full meals only. Absolutely loved watching my client breaking the pattern this week. If you keep looping….come join the journey. #

✨ Trigger Warning: Su***de & Mental Health ✨

This week marks three years since my partner, Johno, took his own life. September 3rd, 2022. So many lives of those who loved him were changed forever- including mine.

I’ve never really had a public space to share what that was like — for me, for his children, for his family — because su***de is still spoken about in whispers. It makes people uncomfortable. Too often, it is tucked away in silence and shame. But silence doesn’t heal. And silence doesn’t save lives.

I was there the night Johno died. I found him in his most desperate moment. That memory lives in my body. And while I’ve come to a deep acceptance of his choice, I also carry anger — at the systems that failed him, the medication that wasn’t right for him, the lack of support and understanding for his trauma. I question myself - as a mental health professional why didn’t I prevent this from happening- how was I so blind? I know I’m not alone in that anger.

This year, one of my own clients also took his life. Friends of mine have lost men they love. It keeps happening. And it feels like we are still dancing around the truth. R U OK? Day is coming up, and while it matters, it can’t just be one day of lip service. We have to go deeper.

Our men are under enormous pressure. Financial stress, health struggles, the weight of providing and protecting — all without a culture that encourages them to have vulnerable, soul-level conversations. Women have circles. We gather and we talk. Too many men are carrying the unbearable alone.

I don’t write this as a victim. I write this because I loved Johno. Because I still love him. And because I believe we can do better. We have to do better. How many more lives must we lose before we realise that we are all part of the solution — or part of the problem if we stay silent?

And here is the deeper truth: change doesn’t just happen “out there.” We each have a personal responsibility to look within, to sit with our pain instead of numbing it, to heal our own core wounds, to break the cycles of intergenerational trauma that quietly run our lives. When we ignore our inner world, it shows up in our outer world — in our relationships, in our health, in the way despair can overtake us. When we choose to do our inner work, we not only free ourselves, we become part of the collective healing.

To anyone who is struggling: please know your pain is not too heavy to share. Please know your life matters more than your role, your paycheck, your ability to “hold it all together.” And to all of us: let’s not just ask the question “Are you OK?” once a year. Let’s create spaces where honesty is safe, where struggle is not shameful, and where reaching out is met with love, not fear.

Johno, I honour you this week and every week. I honour your children and your family. And I honour everyone who has lost someone in this way — I see you, I walk with you, and I know how heavy it can be.

Death is not the end — I feel that deeply in my soul. But while we are here, alive together, may we finally learn to hold one another better. And may we each have the courage to face our own shadows, so that together, we can end the cycles of pain that keep taking the ones we love.

💛 If you or someone you love is struggling, please reach out. You are not alone.

YOU’VE got the power!

“No matter what you are going through right now, The Inner Shine Clinic can help you face ‘what is’ with grace and dignity. We can help you to truly let go of the past and look to he future with inner peace and confidence”.

Hi, I’m Catherine Nyika, the founder and principal practitioner at The Inner Shine Clinic, and I am not your average therapist and coach and that’s a good thing. I help you to see the light inside of you that you forgot was even there and teach you the tools so that you can keep that light turned on. You find yourself here because you are searching for answers and seeking the inner peace and freedom you long for and deserve. Medications, weekly massages, the odd glass of wine and expensive on-going therapies haven’t help because you just don’t feel any better and you know you need to start to heal from the inside out. Perhaps your current life circumstances have left you feeling detached from your own sense of self, and you are sick of feeling this way and you know things have to change. Well you’ve come to the right place!

I have a background in education, I’m an accredited clinical social worker and certified clinical EFT Practitioner, and I am passionate about empowering people like you to heal yourself with the innate wisdom and tools you already possess. I integrate a mind-body approach to wellbeing as I believe your body doesn’t lie! The therapeutic modality EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques) is very aligned with my vision for self empowerment and motivating for change, and have witnessed many amazing and often rapid results for myself as well as my clients> My intention is to bring this technique to the mainstream.

If you are currently experiencing challenges and difficult life transitions such as relationship breakdowns, parenting stresses, chronic health issues, anxiety, depression, grief, stress, trauma, addictions or fears, call us for a free 15 minute chat and let’s make a plan for how we can help you or your family member.
