✨Alchemical Reflection February 2-8, 2026 ✨

We have so much happening within the planets, seasons and collective right now. As we continue to navigate the alchemical energy since the year began, we are seeing more and more that the process is evolving and moving us forward in some pretty amazing ways.

Today the Leo Full Moon arrives wrapped in fire, truth, and tension. It asks us to look directly at our relationship with power...not the kind we perform, but the kind we embody.

Imbolc reminds us that power begins quietly. A spark beneath the soil. A knowing in the body. A boundary finally spoken.

Holding the dark does not mean indulging rage or bypassing grief. It means allowing these forces to inform our clarity. Anger can be sacred. Passion can be protective. Power can be clean when it is rooted in sovereignty rather than fear.

This is a week to reclaim what has been handed away.

And to courageously name what can no longer be tolerated.

It’s time to move forward and let your heart guide you towards choosing yourself. No more playing small, no more holding back. What does this look like for you and how will you tend the fire that’s beginning to burn?🔥

If you’re feeling anxious about the state of the world, you’re not broken. You’re human.

You don’t need to fix everything.
You don’t need to be constantly informed.
But staying frozen or disconnected doesn’t actually protect us either.

Do what you know how to do.
If you’re a writer, write.
If you create, create.
If you organize, organize.
If you care for others, care…starting close and widening outward.

Meaningful action, especially when it’s aligned with your values, helps move us out of fear and into agency.

You don’t have to do everything.
Do your part, the best way you know how 🤍

✨Introducing: Alchemical Reflections ✨

Your weekly invitation to pause, reflect, and reconnect

Welcome to Alchemical Reflections, a new and free offering of a gentle weekly practice...designed to help you check in with yourself, your body, and your inner wisdom. Think of it as a small pause in the start to your week, a moment to breathe, notice, and explore what’s alive for you... without pressure or expectation.

Each week, I'll share a reflection inspired by psychospiritual therapy principles and intuitive guidance, all designed to support:

Mindfulness & journaling: noticing thoughts, emotions, and patterns

Somatic awareness: feeling into your body and nervous system

Herbal & aromatherapy practices: gentle rituals for grounding and comfort

Reiki-inspired energy reflection: connecting to subtle shifts within

Self-inquiry & meaning-making: exploring inner themes, archetypes, or intuitive messages

These reflections are not predictions or advice, but invitations... ways to slow down, tune in, and nurture yourself. You can integrate them however you like: a cup of tea, your journal, a walk in nature, or a moment of stillness with your breath.

My purpose with Alchemical Reflections is simple:

To help you feel more present and grounded,

To notice emotional and energetic patterns,

To connect with your inner wisdom and personal meaning,

To bring mindful self-care into your week.

No matter where you are in your journey, whether it’s anxiety, burnout, grief, or simply curiosity, these reflections are here to support, guide, and hold space for you.

✨MY INVITATION TO YOU: Follow along each week, and allow yourself a little pause to notice, reflect, and alchemize your inner world.✨

And as always.....Take what resonates, leave what doesn’t.

Thank you for being part of this journey with me. It's an honour to walk alongside you 💜

2026.

Here we are.

The question isn’t just what this year holds, but what you are ready to hold.

I’ve been on a journey for many years now. That’s not unusual; life itself is a long unfolding. What’s become clear, though, is that this journey hasn’t been about becoming someone new. It’s been about returning to myself.
Along the way, I’ve noticed something interesting: the things that feel like discoveries aren’t really new at all. They feel remembered. My love for magic, medicine, philosophy, and the study of human nature…these aren’t passing interests. They feel like skills the soul has practiced before. Like knowledge carried forward, waiting for the right moment to be reclaimed.
When I was younger, I believed I had to follow the script. You know the one. As a woman, you’re measured by how you look, how well you hold things together, the work you do, the care you give, all while quietly setting aside your own longings. Keep it moving. Don’t ask for too much. Don’t stray too far.
But what if we don’t need the script?

For many women, age brings clarity.

And courage.

At some point, we realize we can say, honestly and unapologetically, forget the script. What follows is often deep work: inner child healing, shadow work, untangling ourselves from expectations that were never truly ours. It’s not always easy, but it is liberating. This is the path back to authenticity, to intuition, to the quiet wisdom that’s been there all along.

As I step into this year, my intention is simple and steady: to bring forward the best of my soul and be of service. To reclaim and channel the feminine power this world is starving for. This is the power I’ve gathered across a lifetime of living, learning, and remembering. To stand fully in who I am, without apology and without borrowed rules. Is it scary? Hell yes. But I’ve got some help along the way.

We’ve crossed into a potent threshold.
2026 holds real potential…for change, for healing, for goodness. But it will ask something of us.

Presence. Integrity. Courage.

So I’ll leave you with this, knowing that I am here, journeying alongside you and supporting you….
What are you willing to step into this year?

During the holidays, I find so many people feel their loved ones who’ve passed, like they’re just a little closer this time of year 🤍

Have you ever noticed signs when they connect with you? Do you see feathers, hear songs, see numbers, or experience little moments that feel like them?

I sat down to do client sessions today and found a feather right on my desk. A quiet reminder that we’re never as alone as we think. I wasn’t sure if this was one of my loved ones or a clients loved one. But what I’ve been feeling strongly is that it was a collective of them across the veil, connecting with me to channel all the love and support through to this side. I felt this as I connected with clients today, and I felt my loved ones supporting me as I hold space for all of the lovely souls I work with.

I’d love to hear from you all…what signs have you noticed from your loved ones? ✨

If December feels overwhelming or exhausting, you’re not imagining it. Every year friends, colleagues and clients tell me the same thing (and I also tell myself): “I don’t know why I feel so tired… I wish I felt more festive.” And honestly? It makes perfect sense.

December is naturally a season of endings. Instead of slowing down we experience the pressure of demanding expectations, disrupted routines, emotional echoes, and capitalist marketing. Your entire being is juggling a lot, even if nothing “bad” is happening. Your system easily becomes overwhelmed. When you feel the exhaustion, you’re responding to a season that asks more from your body than it gives back.

In my latest blog post I go more in depth about this, but in a nutshell here is some quick advice:
Let yourself move slowly.
Let yourself take breaks.
Let yourself feel whatever comes up.
Winter is not a performance; it’s an invitation to soften, simplify, and breathe.

✨IT’S OK TO PIVOT ✨

I had the most beautiful plans for a girls weekend away with friends, one that is long overdue and always makes my heart so happy….but of course Mother Nature had other plans. With all of us now snowed in, it’s become a quiet weekend at home with nothing on the agenda except some intense snow shoveling.

I will be honest, my first reaction was anger. But after a few deep breaths and a little bit of coffee, my mindset shifted to release. Releasing any anger and allowing it to unfold into what can now be a quiet weekend with family and perhaps doing some baking and reading and bingeing the new Stranger Things season. The girls are regrouping and we will plan new dates. Safety and comfort over pushing the plans simply to get it done.

There’s beauty in being able to pivot if we allow it. Our plans change and sure there’s some disappointment, but we can opt to embrace the beauty of what’s on offer instead of being angry and bitter that our original plans didn’t work as we had wanted. I’m grateful that I’ve learned to embrace the art of pivoting over the years….it has supported the release of anxiety and anger and allowed for presence and gratitude instead. Life is all about these pivots, and it’s OK to flow with them. Sometimes they can bring us what we need but didn’t think we had space or time for 💜

Anyone else get super frustrated when your plans get thwarted by a cold or flu??? 🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️🙋‍♀️

Sometimes, when we push ourselves beyond our capacity for too long, our bodies force us into time out. And in a culture that values productivity over rest, we often don’t recognize when we may be overextending ourselves physically, emotionally, mentally or energetically. And as a therapist, this is something I explain to my clients on the regular.
Full disclosure time: I’m just as vulnerable to overextending myself even though I know better, and yes, it catches up to me. My immune system made the choice for me after a busy month, putting the brakes on another busy weekend ahead. What’s my body telling me? Biologically it’s telling me that my immune system is low because my system is stressed and I haven’t been recharging my battery enough. On many other levels, it’s telling me I need to rest, to nourish myself and to let others look after me while I regenerate.
As someone who’s always on the go, it’s frustrating to get knocked down. But i’ve learned over the years that it’s the Universe trying to tell me to pay attention to something. So I surrender. Surrender to letting myself rest, to puppy cuddles, books and ginger lemon tea. And to honoring myself and what I need instead of pushing myself to meet any other expectations. Because I know I need to care about myself as much as I care for others.

So the next time you start coming down with a cold or flu, take it as a sign that you need some rest and deserve the time out ❤️✨

Step into the shadows with us this Samhain 🌙✨

At Feast & Feminine, we practice and witness the power of sisterhood, the nourishment of food and celebrating the feminine spirit through shared meals, sacred rituals, and the healing energy of community.

This Samhain, we will gather to explore the concept of Shadow Work, applying spiritually integrated psychotherapeutic techniques to support stepping into and reclaiming the parts of ourselves we have felt the need to keep hidden.

We will walk the stone wall to remember our people and the women who hold us in our power. This walking meditation connects us to our ancestors and the women of history.

On November 1, we gather at The Little Stone Chapel for shadow work, cord cutting, everyday magic, food, drinks, and laughter.

Together, we honour the sacred spark within ourselves and each other.

We will learn how to remain sovereign in these dark times. How to remain in love. Small bits of practical magic.

I’m honoured to be a part of this event and this community, and I’d love for you to join us for an evening or self discovery, communing and forging connections with like minded souls.

Jane Goodall changed the world.

For women, she broke barriers in science and proved compassion is a strength. For nature, she showed us animals are kin, not “other” and that we could understand so much about ourselves by getting to know them. For the world, she became a voice of hope, reminding us that small actions spark big change. For me, she showed me that women could be scientists and that our relationship to nature and its beings is a crucial part of harmony on our planet. She showed me it’s ok to be compassionate, curious and to love a life that is both meaningful and authentic no matter what others might say.

Her legacy? Live with empathy. Protect what you love. Believe you can make a difference.

Rest in Peace peaceful warrior ✨🐒💚

Back-to-school isn’t just a transition for kids — it’s a big shift for busy moms, too. Between drop-offs, schedules, and the never-ending to-do list, it’s easy to forget your own needs. There's plenty of moments when you don't feel like you're doing enough.
As mothers we often sacrifice our own self care to prioritize every one else's needs. This is your reminder that you don't have to always do it all, and that rest is an important part of your wellbeing too. Taking care of yourself is part of taking care of your kids.... so have some self compassion and know that you don't have to be perfect to be loved!
