Look for the Love …..❤️

Valentine’s Day can make it feel like love is something you either have… or you don’t.

But this?
This is love.

For my 50th birthday, my 19-year-old niece sat down and wrote “50 Reasons Why I Love You.”
She numbered them. One to fifty.

And number one?

My smile.

The very thing I’ve been self-conscious about for years.

Funny how the parts of us we question… are sometimes the parts that shine the brightest to someone else.

She wrote about my authenticity.
My integrity.
How I am dedicated to my health.
How I give advice (even when it’s met with “Oh Auntie Jo, stop!” 😅).

But here’s the thing — she sees it.
She sees the grounded truth.
She sees the effort.
She sees the woman I’m trying to be. A good role model.

Being an auntie has taught me something profound:
Love isn’t just romantic. It’s not just candlelit dinners and red roses.

It’s mentoring.
It’s showing up.
It’s being a role model.
It’s staying aligned with your values when the world tells you to bend.

Love is in your friendships.
In your faith.
In the trees and the sea and the sunlight on your face.
In how you look after your body.
In the way you speak to yourself.

Love is everywhere.

So if today feels heavy… if you feel a bit lonely…
Look for the love.

It’s already around you.
It’s already within you.

You just have to notice it. 💫
And BIG BIG LOVE to you all from me 💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚
Thank you to my nieces and nephew for teaching me the beauty of unconditional love 💚💚💚💚

✨ Friday the 13th was never “unlucky.” ✨
It was rebranded.

Long before the Gregorian calendar and patriarchal power structures, 13 was sacred.

There are 13 lunar cycles in a year.
Most women bleed roughly 13 times a year.
The moon, the tides, the womb — all move in rhythm.

13 represented fertility. Sensuality. Creation.
The Divine Feminine.

Friday itself is named after Freyja, the Norse goddess of love, beauty, sexuality and magic.
A day devoted to feminine power.

So when you hear that Friday the 13th is “bad luck,” ask yourself who decided that… and why.

When systems rise that fear women’s intuition, sexuality, and cyclical wisdom, they don’t celebrate it — they suppress it.
They mock it.
They demonise it.

But here’s the truth:

13 is not cursed.
It’s creative.
It’s fertile.
It’s powerful.

Today isn’t about hiding.
It’s about remembering.

Celebrate your body.
Celebrate your cycles.
Celebrate your magic.

✨ Reclaim the 13. ✨

The sun. Is. Coming. Out. ☀️
Cancel brunch. Cancel errands. Cancel tea with the King.
To maximise this rare February solar event:
– No sunglasses.
– No SPF.
– Expose some sensible skin.
– Face the sky like a houseplant that’s been emotionally neglected since October.

We are charging. Like a dead car battery that hasn’t been driven in years.
We are photosynthesising

Water filters….. The most important thing to look at for health next to air quality and food. Water 💦

Big thanks to

As someone who’s lived through 12 years of very complex health issues I can say this honestly:

The emotional and psychological impact — losing your identity, your old self, your confidence — can feel enormous. Sometimes it even feels bigger than the physical.

Actually. Who am I kidding. The physical wins every time. Because if the symptoms just fu**ed off,
I could be the woman I was… and still am underneath it all.

If you’re an empath and a people pleaser —
(and honestly, if you have autoimmunity, there’s a very high chance you are) — this part is hard.

You have to stop caring so much about what other people think.
You have to stop explaining yourself.
You have to stop performing wellness for other people’s comfort.

Sometimes that means being ruthless.
Cutting people off.
Or simply caring less.

Not because you’re cold.
But because recovery demands boundaries.

This isn’t selfish.
This is survival.
And for many of us — it’s part of healing.

Sometimes you’re not “quiet” —
you’re surviving.

And it’s wild how quickly that gets misread.

There were seasons where all my energy went into staying afloat. Not disappearing. Not withdrawing.
Just… healing.
Here’s your permission slip to do the same
Big love
Jo
💚🫶🏼💚

Testing Lauricidin (Monolaurin) — 🧪✨

I’m about 6 days into Lauricidin (monolaurin) and I wanted to share this with an important caveat:

This stuff is not a “let’s kill everything and hope for the best” supplement.

Because if you start “killing off” microbes before your body has the capacity to clear what’s being stirred up—through digestion, liver/bile flow, bowels, lymph, overall resilience—you can end up feeling more unwell, not better.

Straight up: killing without clearing = overload.

This is why I don’t vibe with random supplement stacking or the “throw enough mud at the wall” approach. Healing isn’t a lucky dip.

Lauricidin is one small piece of a much wider protocol I’m doing to support gut balance and restore optimal gut health over time. Slow, steady, strategic.

Comment below if you’d like me to share the link to it 👇🏽

I’m testing it carefully, listening to my body, and I’ll report back with what I notice (the good, the bad, and the “meh”).

If you’re thinking about trying something like this, I genuinely think it’s smartest done as part of a proper, sequenced plan—ideally with a practitioner who understands timing, detox capacity, and your individual sensitivities.

Have you tried Lauricidin?

Fish! Joy! Yay! For those of you who have MCAS and histamine overload, you’ll understand the complicated food hurdles we have to get over and fish is one of them.
Fish VERY quickly develops histamine. So unless you are getting it straight out of the sea then it’s likely a no go whilst you go thought the low histamine protocol phase. Fish that has been sitting in the fishmongers or wrapped in celophane on the supermarket shelf is a no. And most fresh fish on the shelf has been frozen and then defrosted. Double jeopardy!!

Fish frozen at sea is the best option for those of us with histamine “issues”!! And really delivers on this. In both senses! Very knowledgeable about histamine overload.
My first box is arriving this arvo. Will keep you updated…..
