Today I had the pleasure of visiting the Fawcett Street Community Shop and what a fantastic organisation it is ❤️

It’s so much more than a community shop. They have a community hub, a community kitchen and provide opportunities, support and connection for people across the local area.

I’m really excited to be working alongside them and will soon be offering wellbeing sessions through the hub. 🌿

It’s always inspiring to meet people who are genuinely making a difference in their communities, and this place is doing exactly that.

One of the biggest lies I believed about healing was that if I was making the right choice, it would feel good.

It doesn’t always.

Sometimes healing means choosing yourself and then crying all weekend.

Sometimes it means setting a boundary and feeling guilty.

Sometimes it means walking away from a person or situation that still matters to you.

Sometimes it means letting go of the version of your life you thought you were going to have.

Healing isn’t always peaceful. It isn’t always empowering. Sometimes it’s brutal.

But just because something hurts doesn’t mean it’s wrong.

Some of the best decisions I’ve ever made felt awful at the time. Not because they were wrong, but because I was grieving what I had to leave behind in order to grow.

Growth doesn’t always feel like freedom.

Sometimes it feels like loss first.

Keep going anyway 🤍

Thank you so much to everyone who showed interest in my coaching practice sessions 🤍

I’ve now filled all my spaces and honestly I’m so grateful for the support, encouragement and people willing to trust me while I continue learning and growing in this new chapter ✨

A little bit nervous… but mostly excited 😊

I’ve updated the Shoshen Logo 💜

When I first started Shoshen Holistic Healing, it came from a place of wanting to help people slow down, breathe, heal and reconnect with themselves through massage, reiki and holistic therapies.

But over the last year, something deeper has grown alongside it.

Through my own healing journey, learning about the nervous system, attachment, trauma, emotional regulation and mind-body connection, I realised this was never just about relaxation for me. It was always about transformation.

The butterfly represents growth and becoming.
The roots represent grounding and healing from within.
The sunrise represents new beginnings and the courage to start again.

As I slowly move into coaching and deeper mind-body work alongside my holistic therapies, I wanted the brand to reflect that evolution too.

Still soft.
Still safe.
Still spiritual.
But also stronger, deeper and more aligned with the work I truly want to do in the world.

Thank you to everyone who has supported Shoshen so far. Honestly, some of you have watched this grow from a tiny idea into something that is becoming bigger than I ever imagined.

This feels like the beginning of a whole new chapter 🤍

I absolutely love this tiny little workspace I’ve created for myself 🩷

For years I struggled to focus, stay organised or sometimes even start things properly when I was working from my sofa or bed. Having a space that’s just mine has honestly helped so much.

This little corner is where the assignments get finished, the posts get written, the meditation classes get planned and all the big dreams slowly start becoming real ✨

To be fair… the actual ideas still arrive randomly in the car, at 3am or halfway through another task 😅 but this is where they finally come together.

Yay! Finally got the sun lounger ☀️🤣

Now let’s see how long I can actually sit still before my brain decides we absolutely must get up and do… something 🙃

I actually annoy myself 😅

Wanted a nice relaxing bank holiday in the garden on a new sun lounger reading my book…

Came home from Asda with fence paint and bark instead 🙃

And now all I want… is the bloody sun lounger.

🌿 Looking for 3 Coaching Practice Clients 🌿

As part of my coaching qualification, I’m now ready to begin my practical assessment and I’m looking for 3 people to work with over a series of sessions.

So firstly… what is coaching?

Coaching is a space to pause, reflect and begin understanding yourself on a deeper level.
It’s about identifying the patterns, beliefs, fears or habits that may be keeping you stuck and working towards meaningful change in a supportive, honest and empowering way.

It’s not about someone “fixing” you or telling you what to do.
It’s about helping you reconnect with yourself, your goals and the life you actually want to create.

You might benefit from coaching if:
• you feel stuck or lost
• you keep repeating the same patterns
• your confidence or self-worth has taken a hit
• you struggle with overwhelm, people pleasing or self-doubt
• you know something needs to change, but don’t know where to start
• you want accountability and support while making changes in your life

These sessions will be offered free of charge as part of my training, but I’m looking for people who are genuinely ready to engage with the process and commit to 3–5 sessions.

Sessions can take place in person or via video call if preferred 🤍

If this resonates with you, send me a message and I’ll forward over a short application form.

Beautiful class tonight after a crazy couple of days with kids in hospital, exams, endless appointments, and life in overdrive. 🌪️ Tonight, I traded the chaos for calm. Time to breathe, reset, and show up for my own peace and yours. 🧘‍♀️✨

Coming to the end of my courses now and suddenly it’s that stage of…

“oh s**t EVERYTHING is due in” 🙈🤣

Honestly don’t let me sign up for any more courses next year if you hear me mention one…

Actually no wait.

Maybe one big one and one little one 😅

In my defence, I genuinely love learning and growing… my time management however does not share the same passion.
