Yesterday I completed my challenge! Over the minutes target and £25 under the fundraising target - thank you everyone (there is still time to donate - link in comments 😜). I have to say if it weren't for the challenge it would very much have been a sofa day and I didn't want the last day to be a home workout so I pulled myself together and went for a long (ish) walk.

What have I learned? I am capable of doing more than I thought but its a fine line between listening to your body when rest is needed and using it as an excuse to not be active. The cumulative affect of keeping going leads to complete crashes - it's important to be mindful of what's in the energy bank so you're not already starting in defecit the next day. I can be open about this condition without judgement - the supportive comments have been amazing! I saw new shoots on my walk yesterday - that's got to be a promising sign hey? New beginnings 🙂.

I hope you've learned a little more about the condition and indeed any "invisible" conditions and the whole raft of symptoms and impacts beyond the main perception of what it is. You can find out more about the condition at Most of all please remember conditions affect people differently and at different times being very unpredicatable, fine one day, wiped the next. Put aside assumptions and comparison and either reach out if you are suffering or be a sympathetic ear to your loved ones who suffer. 😘

Tomorrow, Sunday 1st February, is Imbolc - one of the traditional fire festivals, the point between Yule and Spring Equinox. Symbolises rebirth, renewal, fertility - fire cleanses, renews and purifies. Linked to Brigid - Goddess of healers, blacksmiths, poetry, fertility and prophecy. 

I always feel inspired how nature emerges, how shoots push up through hardened frosted ground having been patiently waiting, nourishing under ground.

Tomorrow also brings the full moon in Leo 🦁 - another fire element, a symbol of boldness, leadership and strength.

We are tipping into the lighter days now, ready to emerge from our inner worlds - how will you honour yourself this season? What will you release so that you can boldly step forward?

Here is my offering of poetry to Brigid 🌱🐦‍🔥

It's felt very heavy for me this weekend but I can feel it lifting. I've done a lot of work on nurturing and healing and it's still a period of rest. We are still wintering. But any intentions set under this New Moon are asking to be those that can be deeply rooted, that can slowly and steadily start to take shape and unfold for you. Sometimes the best things need you to play the long game and need patience - definitely true for me waiting for April when i get to close one door at work and step forward onto the path that aligns with my purpose and passion. But planning can still start, seeds can be sown 🌱

Big Winter Workout Challenge update - Tuesday I was in the office so easily got in my activity approx 40 minutes brisk walking parking a little further away from the station then station to office then vice versa. Yesterday I failed working through to 17.30 then straight to a business support group for 2 hours (no tea!) then home and bed! Today one hour of Karate with tbe wee man. So I may not have managed a dedicated activity yesterday but I am still well ahead of my minutes!! I am half way through the challenge and have acheived 67% of the target in minutes and at 40% of the fundraising target. 😃

Started the week for my challenge with tripling the number of minutes activity for the challenge. Didn't think to capture a photo before so this is me hot, sweaty and desheveled at the end of a yoga class! 🤣🤣

A huge thank you to the ladies who showed up for themselves today, to take the time out and invest in their wellbeing and inner peace and calm.

What a beautiful day and some beautiful shares during discussion and group coaching. It is humbling to see how when we come together as women, in community, how sharing happens, how vulnerability is safe to show, and how it instictively stimulate love and support for eachother.

It was lovely to see and feel the relaxation and peace during meditation and hear of the shifts and release happening throughout the session 🙏

Ready for the Healing Reset!!

09/01/2026

Do you want to bring calm to the chaos and buck the trend to suddenly jump into action in January with a set of overwhelming goals?

I have limited spaces available now on my session on Sunday - join me in my rebellion against chaos and busyness!

Thats not to say goals are a bad thing but when they are driven by an external expectation or a perception of something you "should" do or be, it becomes an obligation you are setting up to fail from the outset. What we need to do is ensure we are coming from a place of calm, clarity and alignment when setting intentions and establishing goals.

My event is designed for you to feel nourished, relaxed and release any negative thoughts and patterns weighing you down and that can be where it ends - to help you restore calm and balance.

But if you are thinking about setting goals and aspirations, this healing needs to take place first - to prepare a fertile ground to bear fruit. Only when addressing this fundamental and underlying issue does a goal to get fit, eat healthily or stop a bad habit then become an act of self-compassion and love for yourself instead of restriction, "giving something up" or punishment. It becomes more aligned to your inner desires and you feeling worthy and deserving of all that comes to fruition.

One of the issues i find that frequently comes up when i'm coaching is not so much understanding what your goals or (or at least what you think your goals are or "should be") but that you can be stuck in old patterns, stories, lack of self-belief or worth which can mean even if acheiving those goals it will never be fully effective if you don't feel worthy/deserving or if healing and releasing needs to take place to clear the way for you to step forward more confidently. Those stories and external pressures can also lead to goals you think you should have but not what are truly aligned for you.

I have some spaces still available for my session on Sunday will help you take that pause and release and heal to prepare the ground, clear the path for you to leave any unwanted burden behind and move forwards.
