Monday morning musings 🤔……

08/02/2026

I saw this post today and it really resonated…..
“We’ll cross that bridge when we get there” sounds calm… but for over thinkers 🙋🏼‍♀️, we’re already there.

Waiting for it to happen doesn’t make it easier.
It just gives fear more time to rehearse worst-case scenarios, build fake emergencies, and convince you that you’re not ready.

The truth?
👉 Anxiety loves delay
👉 Confidence is built in motion

You don’t wait until you feel ready.
You act, and readiness catches up.

Make the plan.
Have the uncomfortable conversation.
Ask the question.
Start before you feel brave.

Because that bridge?
It doesn’t collapse because you looked at it early.
It gets sturdier every time you take a step toward it.

Stop waiting. Start crossing. And if you need support I’m here for you💛

Sunday morning fun, jumping on the latest trend. ‘Ask chat gpt to create a caricature of me and my job based on everything you know about me’. Got to laugh, the 2 cups of coffee on the go, I think it knows me too well 🤣🤣

Happy Hump Day 💭

It’s Wednesday, you that point in the week where motivation can dip and everything can feel a little heavier.
Even my trusty companion seems to be feeling it today, quietly keeping me company while I prepare for my evening clients. Sometimes just having someone nearby, even in silence, can make a difference.

Lately, I’ve noticed how many people are feeling up and down, much like the weather. One moment feeling okay, the next feeling flat, overwhelmed, or unsure why things feel harder than they should.

And for many young people, and adults too, mocks looming or deadlines piling up can add another layer of pressure.
You might know you should start… but not know where.
Or feel like no matter how much you do, it’s never quite enough.

If that sounds familiar, you’re not alone. These fluctuations in mood are often a sign that your mind and nervous system are carrying a lot, not that you’re failing or falling behind.

Sometimes the most supportive thing you can do is pause, notice how you’re really feeling, and allow yourself some understanding rather than more pressure.

💭 Is your mood feeling as changeable as the weather right now?
💬 What’s been weighing on you this week?

Support doesn’t have to wait until things feel unbearable. Sometimes it starts with a conversation, and I’m here for it.

Bye bye January, hello February ✨

Let’s be honest, how was January really?
Too many resolutions?
Trying to change everything at once?
Burnout before the month even ended?

January taught us what it needed to.

Now… February begins 💭

Whether January felt productive, messy, overwhelming, or just meh 😒, it doesn’t define the rest of your year.

Change doesn’t come from doing more.
It comes from thinking differently.

If you’re ready to work through challenges, reset expectations, or shift old belief systems, feel free to message me. You don’t have to do it alone.

For anyone that needs a reminder to believe in themselves 🥳 I’m here for you whether you need clarity, connection, direction or anything bothering you 🙌

I’ve recently had a move around in here. Those who know me will know that I love changing things up, change can be good for us, change doesn’t have to be scary.

This room is a safe space.

This space holds many stories.
Quiet ones. Messy ones. Brave ones.

This room doesn’t need to be perfect.
Neither do the people who come into it.

It’s where children come to make sense of big feelings, and where adults often realise they’re allowed to pause and let go too.

This space has seen courage, tears, laughter, and growth.
Every session looks different, because every person is different.

Healing happens in real, imperfect moments ,when someone feels seen, heard, and understood.

This room is designed to say:
“You’re allowed to be yourself here.”

No pressure.
No judgement.
Just space to explore emotions safely.

If this room could speak, it would say:
“You don’t have to do this alone.”

Therapy doesn’t have to look clinical to be meaningful. Safety, comfort, and trust matter just as much as words.

💭 How does this space make you feel?
💬 What helps you feel emotionally safe?
💭 Do you ever feel pressure to have it all together?
💬 What would “good enough” look like today?

Who says therapy has to be boring or just talking?
For this little person, we kick a football about a couple of times on the way down the garden and always start with a game. It gives him and us the space to chat about the week he’s had, helping him relax and regulate before we work on anything else.
Everything is always led at the client’s pace, because that’s where real progress happens. 🙌 P.S he loves a game and usually beats me 😂

For Parents Who Are Unsure…….

Many parents say to me:
“I’m not sure if it’s serious enough for intervention or therapy, maybe it’s just age related or a phase”

And that uncertainty makes sense.

We’re often taught to wait until things are really bad before asking for support. But emotional support doesn’t have to be a last resort or a response to crisis.

Sometimes therapy is about helping a child understand their feelings before they become overwhelming.
Sometimes it’s about giving them tools for big emotions, worries, or changes.
And sometimes it’s simply a safe space where they feel heard, accepted, and supported.

Reaching out doesn’t mean something is “wrong”.
It means you’re noticing, caring, and responding early, and that in itself is a powerful form of support.

💭 Do you ever find yourself wondering if your child needs a little extra support?
💬 What questions are holding you back from reaching out?

You’re not alone in wondering. And you don’t have to have all the answers before reaching out.

A meditation evening of rest and reset with Anna Mizera - Mindful Transformations was well deserved on this wet Wednesday evening as I know I cannot pour from an empty cup after sharing myself with everyone else.
Were you kind to yourself today? What 1 thing did you do to fill your cup? ❤️

💙 Apparently today is ‘Blue Monday’, often called the most miserable day of the year. The dark mornings, cold weather, and January still dragging on… it’s a lot.

Instead of pretending everything’s fine, let me ask you properly, ‘how are you really doing today?’

What’s one small thing you’re doing to shake off the Blue Monday blues?
🌿 Stepping outside for some fresh air
☕ Putting the kettle on for a cuppa
🏋️ Heading to the gym or for a run
😴 Getting to bed early
✔️ Or just simply getting through the day and calling that a win

Whatever it is, it counts and it’s ok, I’m with you. Share in the comments, you never know who might feel a little less alone because of it 💙
