Who even am I?!

This is me today.

After a proper s**t week.

I nearly cancelled this shopping trip. I actually tried to.
Weeks ago it was booked and today I just didn’t have it in me.

Thank god my friend said no.

Because today I walked into shops I’d never have stepped foot in before.
Tried on clothes I’d never have dreamed of wearing.
Proper fitted ones.

For years I lived in supermarket clothes that stretched with me.
If you know, you know.
Comfortable. Forgiving. Hiding.

I kept picking up clothes three sizes too big out of habit.
And my friend kept laughing saying, you are not wearing that anymore.

These might not be the final outfits.

But the feeling was real.
The reminder was real.

I’m not that version of me anymore.
And sometimes you don’t realise how far you’ve come until you try on something new and it actually fits.

Physically.
Mentally.
Emotionally.

Growth doesn’t always look like breakthroughs.
Sometimes it looks like a changing room and a quiet moment of realising…

you’ve outgrown your old life.

🤍

Most people expect mindset work to feel loud.
Big breakthroughs. Big emotions. Big moments.

What I see instead is subtle.
But consistent.

The spirals don’t last as long.
The self-talk softens.
Decisions stop feeling so heavy.

That’s how I know this work works.
Not because life becomes perfect.
But because people stop feeling at war with themselves.

If this resonates, you’re not broken.
You’re just ready for support.
🤍

If you’re curious about what this kind of work looks like 1:1, you can DM me CALM

Sometimes we technically “rest”
but our nervous system never gets the message.

So we come back feeling flat.

Or heavy.

Or already behind.

If this resonated, nothing is wrong with you.

You don’t need more discipline.

You might just need a different kind of rest.

The kind that actually lets your body exhale.

Save this if it put words to how you’ve been feeling. 💫

A lot of people feel unsettled going back to work and assume it means something is wrong.

Most of the time, it just means you’re more aware than you were before the break.

That awareness isn’t a problem.

Even if you don’t know what to do with it yet.

You don’t need answers today.

Just permission to notice what’s coming up without judging yourself for it.

If this feels familiar, you’re not alone.

And if you want support learning how to listen to this without spiralling, my DMs are always open 🤍

This is what my weekend looked like.

Slowing down. Snow. Colouring in. Music. Podcasts. Walks.

Development. Intention setting. Orders. Planning.

Food prep. And lots of space to just be.

This is the work too. ❤️

If someone asked you what makes you happy and your answer was
your job, your kids, your partner, your achievements
pause for a second.

That’s not wrong.

But it’s also not the full picture.

I was asked that question recently and I answered fast.
Client results. My dogs. What I’ve achieved.

All true.

None of them were actually about me.

As a mindset coach, that mattered.
Because when you don’t know what brings you happiness, it usually isn’t because you’re disconnected or broken.

It’s because happiness hasn’t felt safe.
For a lot of high-functioning adults, happiness was short-lived growing up.

When things felt good, something always followed.
So the nervous system learned to stay slightly guarded.

You become the responsible one.
The capable one.
The one who holds it all together and makes sure everyone else is okay.
And without realising it, you stop letting yourself fully relax into joy.

What I see again and again with my clients
and what I’ve seen in myself
is that this isn’t a mindset issue.
It’s a protection pattern.

Recently, I’ve been putting myself in new rooms, with the right people.

And something shifted.
No judgement.
No shame.
No edge.

The real me shows up naturally.
The humour. The ease. The glow.

That’s how you know safety is being restored.
And this is the work I do.

Helping people retrain their nervous system so happiness doesn’t feel dangerous anymore
and being yourself doesn’t feel like a risk.

If you’re realising this is you
and you’re tired of surviving life instead of enjoying it
send me “SAFE” and we’ll talk about what support would actually help you.

You don’t need fixing.
You need safety.

When you finally find people as weird as you 🐭💃
Accepting applications apparently too 😂

But honestly…
For years and years I felt different.

Strange.
Too much.
The odd one out.

I carried judgement, shame, guilt, fear.
So I filtered myself.
Kept parts of me quiet.
Stayed guarded.

Recently though, I’ve stepped into rooms where none of that is there.
And a piece of the old me comes back out.
The unfiltered version.
The relaxed one.
The one who laughs louder and doesn’t overthink every word.

This post is a bit of a joke.
But also not really.

Because you can literally see me light up when I feel safe.
Comfortable.
Seen.
With the right people.

And honestly… everyone deserves that feeling. 🤍

Fourth time meeting FINALLY i get a pic of us together 🤣🤣🤣 posting here so comes up on memories incase there isn't another 🤣🤣🤣🤣 (there will be am joking)

The next 4 months are going to be EMENCE I've noticed latley I shine brighter when I am in rooms I belong and with people who help me feel safe and where I belong. Its no coincidence I am now also working with Kylie to support me. Every coach needs a coach, mentors, support community - excited for whats to come, no more hiding and playing small.

Bring it onnnnnn ❤️

New Year’s Day is quieter than people admit.

Reflective. Heavy. Emotional.

January creates pressure, not clarity, for a lot of high-functioning people.

New goals. New routines. New expectations.

If your mind already feels loud, this isn’t a motivation problem.
It’s a nervous system that’s been living in survival mode for too long.

This is the work I do with clients over 12 sessions.
We don’t force habits.
We rewire the patterns underneath.

For early January starts, I’m offering an incentive on my 1:1 container. We all have dreams but action takers make those dreams a reality ❤️

No rush. Just support if this resonates.

If this landed, DM me “CALM”.

One of my biggest passions is supporting people sooner than I ever did.

I spent years surviving.
Years thinking I had to figure it all out alone.

Years waiting until I was exhausted, anxious, and stuck before I reached out.

Now I’ve become the woman I needed 20, even 30 years ago.
And honestly… I’m really proud of that.

If you’re reading this and thinking “maybe later”
please don’t wait like I did.

You don’t have to hit rock bottom to choose yourself.
You don’t have to do this alone.

If you’re ready to change your life the way I changed mine,
reach out. Let’s start now 🤍

Burnout that keeps coming back isn’t about needing another break.

It’s about patterns your nervous system learned a long time ago.

Once those patterns change, life stops feeling so hard.
I don’t teach coping.

I help people change what’s underneath.
