I’ve just finished listening to 3 day and this is one of my favourite quotes from his teachings.

I honestly don’t think I’ve ever felt as inspired by someone as I have by this man. The kindness he shows to others and the way he guides, inspires and continues to give is just incredible. If I can be even 1% as helpful and inspirational to the humanity as he is, I will feel proud ❤️🙏

So I’m going to go on a journey of self discovery… I’m going to step outside my comfort zone and commit to making some of my lifelong dreams a reality.

If you want to feel inspired too, I would highly recommend you give some of his work a listen… because ultimately what you get will never make you happy, but who you become will 🙏✨ Lauren xx

Your purpose isn’t your job title. It’s not the role you play, the badge you wear, or the label you give yourself.

Your purpose is the impact you leave behind. The shift in someone’s thinking. The moment someone feels seen, steadier, braver, or more hopeful because you showed up as you.

So instead of asking:
✨ What should I do with my life?
Try asking:
✨ What can I give?

Your time.
Your compassion.
Your honesty.
Your skills.
Your lived experience.

That’s where meaning lives 🙏

And when you lead with contribution rather than comparison, purpose has a funny way of finding you. 💛

✨ Pause today and reflect: What can I give?

I was speaking to my cousin about this the other day. The way that decisions that feel small in the moment can literally shape your life 💫

The text you nearly didn’t send.
The boundary you kept putting off.
The opportunity you convinced yourself you weren’t ready for.
The relationship you stayed in because leaving felt scarier than staying.

Courage rarely feels brave in the moment.
It feels uncomfortable. Wobbly. Full of doubt.
But it’s often the smallest decisions that quietly reroute an entire life.

One yes.
One no.
One step you take despite the fear.

If you’re standing at that crossroads right now, this is your reminder:
You don’t need certainty.
You don’t need confidence.
You just need to choose you.

And trust that future-you will thank you for it. ✨

What’s the brave decision you’ve been putting off? 💭

Somewhere along the way, a lot of us learned to live on autopilot.
Pleasing. Pushing. Performing.
Then wondering why we feel anxious, exhausted, or quietly unhappy.

This is your reminder that:
You don’t have to rush your healing.
You don’t have to earn rest by burning yourself out.
You don’t have to live a life that looks good but feels wrong.

Mental health isn’t about fixing yourself.
It’s about coming back into alignment — with your values, your body, and the life you actually want to live.

So if you need permission today:
✔️ To slow down
✔️ To stop comparing
✔️ To choose what genuinely matters

Here it is.

Which one hit you the hardest today?
Save this for the days your head gets loud 🤍

But what if it does work out?

What if the thing you’re avoiding
is the thing that grows you.

What if fear isn’t a stop sign,
but a signal that you’re right on the edge of change.

Most people don’t get stuck because they can’t cope.
They get stuck because their brain is running worst-case scenarios on repeat.

Anxiety asks “what if it goes wrong?”
Growth asks “what if it goes right?”

You don’t need certainty.
You need willingness.
One step. One decision. One moment of courage.

And then you see what unfolds. ✨

💥If you can’t pronounce it — pause.

This is one food label rule that actually matters for your mental health.

Long, chemical-sounding ingredient lists are often a sign a food is ultra-processed.
That doesn’t make it “evil” — but it does make it poor everyday fuel for your brain and nervous system.

Ultra-processed foods are consistently linked with:
• Higher rates of depression and anxiety
• Inflammation
• Blood sugar dysregulation
• Gut disruption
• Altered brain signalling

And before anyone panics — this is not about perfection or food rules.

It’s about awareness.

Eat it? Fine.
Live on it? Different conversation.

Mental health isn’t just psychological.
It’s biological, behavioural, nutritional, and nervous-system based.

You deserve informed choice — not shame.

Follow for no-bullsh*t mental health, whole-person care, and therapy that actually looks at the full picture.

💥 We talk a LOT about mental health in the UK.

But we talk far less about what we’re feeding our brains.

Over 50% of UK household food purchases are ultra-processed — more than double countries with better physical and mental health outcomes.

This doesn’t mean food “causes” depression or anxiety.

It does mean we can’t ignore inflammation, blood sugar, gut health and nutrient intake when people are struggling mentally.

Mental health isn’t just psychological.
It’s biological, social, behavioural and nutritional too.

And therapy works best when we stop pretending otherwise.

One of the biggest sources of emotional pain I see in therapy?

👉 Unmet expectations in relationships.

Not because your standards are too high —
but because your expectations of people are unrealistic.

In my work as a CBT therapist, I see this pattern constantly in anxiety, stress, and relationship burnout.

We expect:
• emotional consistency from inconsistent people
• emotional maturity from people who haven’t done the work
• support from people who are emotionally unavailable
• others to behave how we would

And then we feel disappointed, resentful, or emotionally exhausted.

Lowering your expectations isn’t about becoming negative.
It’s about protecting your mental health.

Humans are flawed.
Inconsistent.
Sometimes selfish.
Often overwhelmed.

When you stop expecting perfection, you stop taking everything personally — and your emotional wellbeing improves.

And just to be clear:
✨ Lower expectations
🚫 NOT lower standards

You can practice acceptance, set healthy boundaries, and still choose who gets access to your time and energy.

That’s emotional intelligence.
That’s nervous system regulation.
That’s peace.

✨What expectations are draining your energy right now?

🚨 If sugar is in the first 3 ingredients… it’s dessert.
I don’t care what the packaging says.

“High protein.”
“Low fat.”
“Healthy choice.”

Food labels are basically warning labels dressed up as marketing.

Ingredients are listed by weight, not vibes.
So if sugar shows up early, that’s what the product is built on.

And listen — dessert isn’t the problem.
Pretending dessert is a health food is.

Eat it. Enjoy it. Just don’t let the label gaslight you into thinking it’s doing your body a favour.

Real health isn’t about perfection.
It’s about awareness, choice, and honesty.

Read the label.
Decide consciously.
Stop outsourcing your health to branding.

Save this for your next supermarket trip 🛒
Share it with someone who still thinks cereal bars are “healthy” 😉

The Empty Plate Theory 🍽️✨

If you keep feeling disappointed, rejected, or “too much” in your relationships, it’s worth asking one uncomfortable question:

👉 Am I asking the wrong person?

So many people stay emotionally hungry because they’re trying to get emotional availability, consistency, validation, or safety from someone who simply doesn’t have it to give.

This isn’t a failure of patience.
It’s not a lack of communication.
And it’s definitely not because your needs are unreasonable.

It’s a boundaries issue, not a standards issue.

In therapy, I see this all the time:
People exhausting themselves trying to earn connection, intimacy, or effort from partners, friends, family members, or workplaces that are emotionally unavailable.

You cannot heal abandonment wounds by staying where you are neglected.
You cannot build secure attachment with someone who avoids responsibility.
You cannot improve your mental health by repeatedly choosing environments that dysregulate your nervous system.

Sometimes the most self-compassionate act isn’t trying harder —
it’s walking away and choosing yourself.

Stop nurturing potential.
Start responding to reality.

Leave the table. The restaurant is closed.

✨ A lesson I wish I’d learned earlier ✨

So many of us grow up believing we need to tone it down, fit in, or smooth off the edges to be accepted.
Too loud. Too sensitive. Too intense. Too curious. Too different.

But here’s the truth most of us only realise later 👇
Those very traits you learned to hide are often the ones that become your greatest strengths.

In therapy, I see this all the time.
The highly sensitive child becomes the deeply empathetic adult.
The “overthinker” becomes the problem-solver.
The one who felt different becomes the one who sees what others miss.

Your quirks aren’t flaws.
They’re data.
They’re information about how your nervous system works, how your mind makes meaning, and where your power lives.

If you’re on a mental health journey, healing from childhood experiences, or learning to manage anxiety, burnout, or low self-worth, this matters:
👉 Growth isn’t about becoming someone else.
👉 It’s about understanding yourself and using what’s already there—on purpose.

Stop sanding yourself down to fit spaces that were never designed for you.
The world doesn’t need a quieter, smaller version of you.
It needs you regulated, grounded, and unapologetically yourself.

Your edges might just be your sharpest tools 💛
