04/01/2026

I asked ChatGPT how I can “do it all” in 2026… and it honestly put me in my place.

It reminded me that I’m trying to run multiple lives at once: clinician, entrepreneur, retreat host, creator, student, partner, homeowner, friend, spiritual human, traveller… and someone who actually needs rest 😮‍💨

Any plan that treats all of these as always-on just collapses. No matter how good the intentions are.

It made me realise something important:
I’m not lazy. I’m over-scheduled across too many domains.

I often look at influencers and other psychologists and think, “How do they do it all?”
But the reality is… they usually don’t do it alone. They have teams, support, and employees.
One psychologist I follow recently shared that he employs nine people. Nine.

What really helped was this reframe 👇
Stop planning by tasks.
Start planning by seasons and energy.

Instead of asking: “How do I do it all?”
Ask: “What gets to be primary this season, and what only needs maintenance?”

Every season has:
• one primary focus (most energy)
• one secondary focus (some energy)
• everything else in maintenance mode

Maintenance doesn’t mean neglect. It means minimum viable care 🌱

I’ve started mapping my goals like this:
Q1: foundation & containment
Q2: visibility & audience
Q3: retreats & lived life
Q4: depth & creation

I’m not against ChatGPT at all. I can see how it can be a really useful tool.
Where I feel cautious is when people start using it as a “therapist”. Therapy isn’t about giving answers or telling people what to do. It’s about helping people reflect, choose, and understand themselves.

But for planning, organising, and untangling a scattered mind full of a million ideas?
I’ve actually found it very helpful 🤍

Curious what others think… how do you use AI, if at all? 🤔✨

Thinking about therapy… but not quite sure where to start? 🤍

Maybe you know something isn’t sitting right.
Maybe you’re clear on what’s going on — or maybe you just know you’re tired of carrying it alone.
And maybe you’re wondering if CBT is even the right approach for you 🧠

From January, I have a few online therapy spaces available ✨
Before committing to anything, you can book a free 15-minute initial call with me.

This call is a gentle, no-pressure space where we can:
• talk about what’s bringing you here
• explore your goals for therapy
• see whether CBT feels like the right fit for you

You don’t need to have the “right words”.
You don’t need a diagnosis.
You don’t need to be in crisis.

Sometimes therapy doesn’t start with answers — it starts with a conversation 🌿

If this feels like the right time, you can book your free call via the link in my bio 🤍

are you always moving, giving, doing… yet never truly resting? 🌀
if your body feels tired but your mind won’t switch off, this might be your sign 🌿

sometimes the problem isn’t that you need another holiday —
it’s that your nervous system needs to feel safe enough to slow down 🤍

next september we’re inviting a small group of women to a deeply restorative 5-day retreat in málaga, spain ☀️🏡
not to “fix” yourself — but to come back to yourself

this retreat is different, because we work gently with both the mind and the body:
💫 neuro-yoga practices to support and reset the vagus nerve
💫 holistic cbt workshops to help you soften unhelpful thought patterns
💫 space to share, rest, and be held without judgment
💫 beach time, a boat trip, and moments of simple joy 🌊

imagine leaving with a calmer nervous system, clearer thoughts, and tools you can actually use when life feels overwhelming 🌸

✨ we now have one last beautiful, spacious private room available £200 OFF ONLY TODAY!
✨ last day for the early bird pricing boxing day sale (26/12)
£150 OFF for twin room
✨ flexible payment in 3 instalments

this is not about escape.
it’s about learning how to feel regulated, grounded, and at home within yourself 💫

Merry Christmas to each and every one of you 🎄✨

I hope this Christmas feels gentle and kind. A pause. A chance to slow down, put your feet up, exhale, and simply be. Whether you’re surrounded by good company, enjoying quiet moments on your own, or finding a mix of both—may it be pleasant, nourishing, and just enough.

You don’t have to do it all. You don’t have to be anything other than human. Rest is allowed. Joy can be soft. And peace often arrives when we stop rushing to meet it.

Wishing you warmth, calm, and moments that feel truly yours 🤍🕯️

23/12/2025

Christmas is often shown as a time of joy, connection and perfect family moments 🎄
But for many people, it can feel very different.

In therapy sessions this December, one theme keeps coming up. We are surrounded by images of happy families and magical Christmases, yet for so many, this time of year highlights difficult emotions instead.

If you grew up with emotionally immature or narcissistic parents, experienced childhood trauma, feel disconnected from family, or are grieving someone you’ve lost, Christmas can be especially hard 💔

This season doesn’t create emotions, it amplifies them.
When things are good, they may feel brighter.
When things are painful, they can feel heavier.

If Christmas is difficult for you, you are not failing and you are not alone.

It’s okay to set boundaries.
It’s okay to do less.
It’s okay to feel exactly how you feel.

Be gentle with yourself this season 🤍

Did you remember to buy a gift for yourself this Christmas? 🎁

Not another candle.
Not something you’ll forget in a week.

A gift that helps you feel calmer, lighter, and more like yourself again.

This Christmas, give yourself:
✨ Space to breathe
✨ Time to slow down
✨ Tools to regulate your nervous system
✨ Sunshine, sea air, and deep rest in Málaga

Our intimate Women’s Retreat in southern Spain is where overwhelmed minds soften, bodies unwind, and clarity returns.

Through neuro-yoga, mindfulness, wellbeing workshops, vagus nerve practices, nourishing food, beach time, and meaningful connection — this is a reset that lasts long after the holidays are over.

You take care of everyone else all year.
This one is for YOU.

Three weeks. One new house. A full kitchen renovation. And a genuine question: best decision ever… or complete disaster? 🤯🏡

The last few weeks have been relentless. Packing up a 3-bed house, moving, renovating immediately, all while working and right before Christmas. We are absolutely drained to the bones. 🫠

Somewhere along the way there was a last-minute trip to Poland for a root canal (because life), which meant even less time to pack. Also, important discovery: how do two people accumulate THIS much stuff?! 😅 I tried to do the right thing – giving things away on Olio and selling bits online – which resulted in people collecting items on moving day. Naturally.

Moving itself was… chaotic. No bed one night, no heating the next, a van that arrived late and far too small. One of those days where pretty much everything that could go wrong, did. 🚚🙃

Then came the kitchen. Wrong measurements, redesigns, missing and damaged cabinets. The IKEA experience tested every ounce of patience I had.

The biggest lesson? Slow down.
It’s literally what I always tell my clients – take your time, think about what’s best for you, do things gradually. And there I was, completely ignoring my own advice. Turns out I’m human. 🤷‍♀️

Sometimes we believe the future benefits will outweigh the current stress. Sometimes they do… but wow, the process can be intense.

But we got there.
A brand new kitchen. Beautiful. ❤️ Totally worth it? Jury’s still out – ask me after I’ve recovered 😄

If your nervous system is tired…
If your mind never really switches off…
If you’ve been saying “I’ll focus on myself later” — let this be your later.

This retreat is for the woman who is ready to:
✨ Feel calm again without guilt
✨ Reconnect to her body and emotions
✨ Learn tools she can actually use in daily life
✨ Rest deeply, laugh freely, and feel truly supported

Picture this: warm Spanish sunshine, gentle neuro-yoga, powerful CBT workshops, beach walks, soulful conversations, nourishing food, ocean air, and space to breathe for the first time in a long time.

Women are already booking — and once these few remaining spaces are filled, registration will close.

Psychotherapist life, wrapped 🎧
Looking back on a year filled with deep conversations, quiet breakthroughs, nervous system regulation, boundaries, tears, laughter and so much growth. From thousands of minutes preparing for sessions to holding space for brave clients in therapy rooms and on retreat, this year has reminded me why this work matters so much.

To every client who trusted the process, asked the hard questions and chose themselves even when it felt uncomfortable – thank you. Your courage is what makes this work so meaningful.

Here’s to more healing, rest, honesty and gentle change in the year ahead 🤍
