The New Year hype has passed me by, I’ve been in India since Boxing Day with my son, and what a trip it has been.
We’ve made incredible memories, and I’ve also been tending to some unfinished business for my heart when it comes to losing my Dad. There’s something about being here. the places, the people, the pace, the prayer, the noise and the beauty that makes you feel things properly.
We’ve packed in so much: London → Mumbai and then across Gujarat (Rajkot, Bhayavadar, Chalala, Amreli, Ahmedabad… and back to Mumbai). All in, it’s roughly 9,200 km of travel, but it hasn’t just been distance. It’s been FULL of meaning.
I stopped making New Year’s resolutions about five years ago. After the pandemic, and after Dad died, I promised myself something different: to live with intention.
My heart is so full right now, and we still have two more days to enjoy this beautiful land 😍
I can’t wait to come back to London, hug my loved ones, bore everyone with pictures and stories, and get back to work with intention with my therapy clients, and recording A Bunch of Therapists with Michaela McCarthy.
One of the most special parts of all of this has been sharing our ancestral home with my son. That feels like a gift I’ll carry for a long time and the full circle moment I didn’t know I needed.
I promise to bore you all with more pictures when I’m back too 😍🤣🫶🏽❤️🤗🇮🇳
