So many of us internalise someone’s inability to show up as proof that we weren’t enough.

But when you look closer, the story often changes.
A relationship rarely falls apart because one person isn’t worthy.

It often falls apart when one person isn’t ready for the level of growth, honesty and emotional work the connection requires.

Sometimes they couldn’t meet you because they weren’t prepared to rise into that version of themselves.

Sometimes you stayed longer than you should because you were still learning your own worth.
Both things can be true without turning you into the problem.

This post is for anyone who has ever carried the weight of someone else’s readiness as if it were a reflection of their value.
It wasn’t.
It was simply clarity about the limits of what that relationship could offer.
And with clarity comes choice.
You get to move toward connections that can meet you fully.

I was going to do a 2025 highlight reel.
Then I saw the trend for low-light reels and thought I’d do that too.

But as I started scrolling through my photos, it became harder to separate what belonged where. What was a highlight. What was a low point. What stayed. What didn’t.

And it made me reflect on this past year.

There have been so many highlights. Incredible moments. Amazing people I’ve met, friendships that have deepened or stayed solid. Things have shifted. Some things have fallen away. I’ve experienced amazing moments and achieved things I’m proud of.

And I’ve also had really hard seasons. Times that stretched me. Dreams I hoped for that didn’t come to life. Near misses and disappointments that hurt. Navigating menopause. Being diagnosed with ADHD, being starched out of comfort zones, going through grief cycles, navigating things that are ultimately helped me grow, but hard to navigate

But that’s the fullness of life, isn’t it?

The highlight reels. The low lights. And everything in between. The letting go. The new beginnings. The ups and downs. The things I’m deeply grateful for, and the things I’m ready to release. Old stories about myself. Patterns. Ways of existing that no longer serve me.

So I think what I’m really saying is this:

I’m grateful for the fullness of 2025.
Grateful for the lessons that came through the tough moments.
Grateful for the people who brought joy, peace, and connection when I needed it most.
Grateful for everyone who has walked alongside me, online or in real life.

If you’re reading this, you’ve been part of my journey in some way, and I’m truly grateful for you.

I wish you nothing but love, peace, and the fullness of life in 2026.

Happy New Year ❤️🙏🏽

23 years ago I gave birth to you and I was 23 myself. We have grown together and I’m really grateful that you chose me.

Is there anything more cosy than a night in with the girls , Christmas decs up, fresh pjs and slippers on, good food, games out and hot chocolate to finish?
