I feel a strong pull to pivot this year, and part of that is reconnecting with the rhythm of nature. ๐ฟ
What about you? Do you feel a need for change in 2026? And what does that look like - if you know?
26/01/2026
I havenโt posted in a long time and I want to be honest about why.
I went quiet because I have not only been very busy with clients and going through a lot of positive changes in my life, but I have also been struggling.
I found emotions quickly intensifing over the last few months. The world felt heavy, my mind was messy, and my heart was tight.
I froze.
I didnโt intend to retreat, but the more I tried to force myself to show up in the world, especially online, the more every cell in my body pushed back. I felt disconnected and out of place, like a square peg in a round hole.
Iโm deeply passionate about supporting women with stress, mental overwhelm, and physical illness, but over the last few months that passion felt somewhat lost in the weight of everything else happening in the world. Showing up as if nothing was happening felt wrong and ignoring the elephant in the room felt impossible. By showing up, I either felt insensitive, or a fraud.
How could I just ignore the global issues that were legitimately causing so much stress to society? To you? And how could I guide others through stress and anxiety when I was feeling crippled by my own fears about a rapidly changing world? That didnโt feel like integrity.
So I paused. Personally and professionally.
I took time to peel off the layers, go down rabbit holes, and try to understand the world's current chaos. Of course we will never know the truth behind all the layers, but I needed something to unravel, something to click, and something to hang on to. I'm human.
As time passed, I sought clarity and direction. I tried to rush through this process, but I was unable to. I found myself (somewhat reluctantly) taking my own advice. I surrendered into the process and allowed it to take as long as it needed.
I sat with it. Trusting that when the low swing hit the bottom, then I'd start moving towards the next upswing. It's inevitable. Itโs science. So, I sat, I thought, I researched, I cried, I resisted, I clinged, I acknowledge the emotions, I recognised the challenges, I remembered my purpose, I reignited my passions, and I slowly moved towards acceptance and a future outlook.
Iโd be lying if I said I had it all figured out. I don't. I'm human and therefore a constant work in progress. But, I do have a clearer mind and lighter heart. I have a more aligned vision and path forward. That also means I'm making a little shift with this page. Itโs good to pivot if it means we're happier. Itโs time to trust my intuition and be brave.
More on that soon ๐ค
For now, my message to you is simple:
Find peace.
Peace in the moment.
Peace in your mind.
Peace in your heart.
Peace comes first. Clarity grows from there.
And from that clarity we can connect in a more grounded and supportive way. I'll be there to help you move through the days and weeks, as well as providing deep transformational therapy for issues that may be holding you back from enjoying life.
You are allowed to go slowly, because healing begins with gentleness. ๐๐
๐ฅ The Science of Slowing Down for the Professional Woman ๐ฅ
Despite full moons and firepits famously symbolising release and renewal, there's actually real science behind how these moments in nature can positively affect our well-being.
Research shows the body's circadian and infradian rhythms (cycles that govern sleep, hormones, energy and alertness) are influenced by moments in nature....THEN add on scientific techniques that connect your brain and your heart, reduce the stress chemicals in your body, and build physical & emotional resilience... and you have a POWERFUL combination! ๐ช
For professional women in healthcare, education or law, where high responsibility often leads to chronic stress and illness, this powerful combination helps you pause and recalibrate.
Over the last 3 months have you experienced...
๐ Rushing around all day, running on fumes.
๐ Weighed down with the mental load of 'to do's'
๐ Unable to switch off at night for a good sleep
๐ Struggling to be present with family & friends
๐ Feeling guilty if you take any time for yourself
If this sounds familiar, then I'm giving you permission to STOP. โ
Come join me for a couple of hours to slow down, breathe, release, reset, and remember WHO you are, not just WHAT you do. This is more than symbolic relaxation: this is a scientific shift.

๐ Happy Full Moon! ๐
Another opportunity to sit and 'be'. To consider how you're doing: physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. An opportunity to recognise what's weighing you down or holding you back. And therefore, an invitation to acknowledge what you want in life. Who you want to be surrounded by in life. And what you want to experience and achieve in life.
And it's another opportunity to consciously and intentionally give yourself permission to let go of the s**t that's putting stumbling blocks in your way.
Your path in life will never be clear and smooth, so why not use nature's gift of a full moon to take time to recalibrate every month.
Committing some time to doing this just once a month can be hugely beneficial and can help keep stress and anxiety lower than it may otherwise be.
And if you want to add a little bit of magic to the proceedings - light a fire! ๐๐ฅ๐
(And yes, I'm wearing two pairs of glasses cause apparently I'm not ready to accept varifocals yet. ๐๐คฃ)

I found myself retreating.
The world is heavy.
My mind is messy.
My heart is tight.
My energy low.
I needed to sit in the liminal space, physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually, to allow the fragmented feelings to dissolve and the new to emerge; not by force, but through presence, patience, and trust in the unseen unfolding.
Allowing myself a full week to unravel in nature has enabled me to recentre myself and reconnect with the quiet, but powerful, wisdom within.
And onwards....

Current view. ๐ A gentle but powerful reminder that despite living in our own heads, going round in circles, ticking off the mundane daily chores, often living in fear but holding onto hope, constantly questioning the small and big issues in life, that the world is much bigger than us. There's more power, and energy, and possibility than our self-restricted existence. But due to the mental limits we place on ourselves, past trauma, current coping mechanisms, the ever-changing landscape of life, uncertainty of the unknown and the insecurity of truth...we detach. But looking up, looking through, looking beyond the surface, reminds our soul that we're connected - part of something bigger. We are collectively the fabric of earth. Stay connected to that infinite energy and remember that you are capable of anything. Rewire and reset your thinking. Establish a quiet inner confidence and faith that you are more capable than you may believe. Greatness is literally lingering inside of you waiting to burst out. Remember this every time you look up at the stars. ๐ซ
P.S. Zoom in on the photo and lose yourself in the infinite energy and possibility. โจโค๏ธ
