Let’s discuss! I’ve been thinking about THE CULT OF SELF the last few months ALOT.

Our self-obsession seems to be never ending, it’s everywhere I look. And yes, I live in a place which attracts the type of person who creates content.

I also create content, you are reading it right now 🙃

Let’s discuss because this is an ISSUE.

Particularly because people tell me they feel empty and lonely…

P.s. I have opened my private sessions again, work with me 1-1 on topics like finding home, understanding the psychological need to belong. If you feel lost, confused and stuck in life.

Love you

HAVE YOU WATCHED IT???!

I had to write something as I couldn’t sleep last night thinking about the various ways I could bring up the topics covered in the docu.

Watch it, it’s fascinating (and yes it’s a docu- the style of editing narrates the story line) and it’s FASCINATING.

Your thoughts?

What are YOU taking responsibility for?
How are you educating the young men in YOUR lives?

It’s easy to blame others, I’m more interested in self-accountability.

Btw - highly recommend Rites of Passage Institute for young men’s work.

Love you all,

Intentionality.
Knowing you trust yourself.
Confidence to change.
Being ok with wherever you are at because you know the purpose of it.

These are some of the outcomes you’ll experience at the end of the 6 month journey through my program The Remembering.

We all want to live a meaningful life, when big change/upheaval/life crises shows up in our life…how do we navigate it?

Bruce Feiler found that meaning in life comes down to three things:

Agency — do I have control over my own life?
Belonging — am I connected to people who matter?
Cause — am I contributing to something beyond myself?

When life falls apart, these three get SHAKEN.

The work isn’t just processing what happened.

It’s deciding how you want to prioritise these in your life for who you’re becoming now.

THIS is what we do inside my program. With other women. Sharing stories. Sharing ideas and inspiring each other to live the lives you are too sacred to make the changes you need.

6 women are already in for this 6-month deep dive psychology backed journey of identity unfolding - 2 open spots remain.

I know you’ve already done so much work. And you understand yourself better than many other people…

Perhaps this is the missing piece?

Dm me I’M IN because we start next week. I’ll send you a link to book a call with me to get to know you.

I can’t wait to see who takes the last two spots to complete our group ❤️

Xo. Nora

P.s. Guys, men - I have something coming for you. I know this is only for women right now. It was a conscious choice. Next will be for you xx

Spice level 🌶️🌶️🌶️

Calling us out. (Me included).

Thoughts? Agree/disagree?
Keep it kind in the comments.

I’ve got a lot more to say on this topic and you just eat it up.

As always, I’m very touched when my content gets shared and talked about. I’ve had five people recognise me and come up to speak to me in the last weeks. If you do ever see me, say hi!

Ways to get closer to me + my work:

1. Last few days to have a call with me to join my 6 month Womens program on navigating big life transitions and find meaning in life (DM me pronto if you want in)

2. Sign up to my retreat waitlist in the l i n k above - Summer 2026 (just keeping an eye on what’s happening over on the mid ea$ t right now but still planning!)

3. Next month is a big launch of a new thing for everyone who wants community, wants to learn about belonging, meaning, purpose and wants to talk about these things. 👀 my email list will get first preview so get on there! See l i n k above again or DM me.

Six months from now, you wake up and you’re not running the loop.

You know the one “should I stay, should I go, what do I actually want, why can’t I figure this out, what’s wrong with me.”

It’s quiet.
Because you actually know.
You know what you want for the next three years. Not a vague sense of “alignment”, a direction that feels right in your body.

You make decisions without the six-week spiral. The big ones like where to live, whether to stay, what to do with your work… they don’t flatten you anymore. You have a way of thinking that holds.

You meet new people and you’re not calculating who to be. You’re just... there. Yourself. It’s not exhausting anymore.

You stopped disappearing when things get hard.

You have tools you trust. Not just ideas you heard on a podcast and forgot.

Actual frameworks you reach for when life gets destabilizing. You’ve done this before. You know how to move through it.

And underneath all of it you feel something you haven’t felt in years:
I’m not behind. I’m not failing. I’m exactly where I’m supposed to be.

This is what happens on the other side of THE REMEMBERING.

Six months. Eight women. Psychology-backed frameworks for identity, belonging, and becoming.

2 spots left. Starts next week.

Comment “I’m Ready” and we chat in the DM’s
(Private profile? DM me so I can reach you.)

Last chance.

P.s. Men I have something coming for you soon, hold on!

“We” because I see myself in this too. Do you? Your thoughts?

Also- this post was written from real conversations I’ve had this week, in my DM’s and on calls. Every feeling every description, real people telling me the same thing in different words:

I’m very stuck emotionally

I want to worry less and ruminate less about options and running around in circles in my head and never actually doing anything

I have all this experience and knowledge and still I’m feeling like I’m failing

I don’t know what is next, I have too many options, what should I do?

-

The Remembering is a 6 month women’s program on identity reconstruction and figuring out what is next? What do I want? How do I want to life a meaningful life?

I teach psychology backed concepts and then we discuss how to apply this to YOUR life. Take ACTION with the knowledge. INTEGRATE.

I have 4 confirmed women, 6 women making the decision this weekend and I only have 8 spots open.

So if you have been thinking to DM me or book in a call with me, now is the time to do it.

Insight alone doesn’t create change and perhaps you are realising this right now.

DM me “WHAT NEXT” and let’s talk about if joining my program is for you.

The women who have joined, are heart-led, so open and willing to be there for each other and I’M SO EXCITED TO START TOGETHER.

Integration is where it’s at and where it’s easiest to avoid 🤷🏽‍♀️

After you’ve been cracked open- what happens then? How do you hold yourself through the major shifts that’s are happening?

What next?
Who am I now?
How do I change myself/my life based on what I experienced?

These are the questions we will be sitting with and learning about.

Comment “ready” if you really ARE ready to sit with yourself and integrate all these experiences you’ve had.

Then I’ll send you a DM to ask about what you’ve been through.

Xx

Nora

What do you do post peak experience? Transformative experience? I’d be curious to hear from you.

This one’s a bit controversial 🫣 and there’s truth in there.

Experienced this?

Feeling lost post ‘freedom-lifestyle’ identity shift?

Dm me “that’s me”.

I created an in depth thingy that’s going to help you navigate the liminal space you’re in right now. It’s a commitment (and if you like my content you know I don’t do surface level) and that commitment is towards yourself.

May ruffle a few feathers.

I’ve seen it. I’ve also been it (before I learnt what I was avoiding).

These places attract seekers, searchers, people trying to find themselves. Dating becomes pretty messy when you aren’t fully centred in self. Remember it’s not the adult self that you are dating but the hurt wounded parts that rule most of the time.

Also- why do you think meditation is so HARD? Why many don’t even attempt or then quit.

It’s you meeting yourself without the distractions.

It’s WILD what comes up when you have a practice of meeting yourself daily.

If you are ready to stay in the room with yourself and not experientially avoid your life- DM me ‘Remembering’ because I’ve put together a 6 month program of ways to meet yourself with grace.



This post may contain assumptions and generalisations. I am speaking to a very particular population I’ve seen and experienced myself. I welcome disagreements and differing perspectives. I don’t tolerate rudeness.

Experiential avoidance is the psychological term.

But what it actually feels like is this: you’re incredibly capable, and you’re using that capability to stay busy enough to never sit with the question of WTF is this all for?

I love me a good experiential avoidance, and guess what? I’ll always follow myself wherever I go.

Might as well face myself NOW and create the life I truly want instead of waste a few years then look back and think “where did the time go?” 🙋🏽‍♀️ been there already btw.

The Remembering is my 6-month psychology based program for women who want to find out wtf is this all for and how do I figure it out?

Dm me “remembering”.

The moratorium phase, that searching, unsettled feeling after a major life transition, is one of the most disorienting places a person can be.

Because something is changing in you at the deepest level.

Your old friends are supporting but can’t really relate to you.
Your old job is fine, but YOU don’t feel it anymore.
You wonder if you should quit everything a go on a spiritual journey to India.

What next?
Such a BIG question.

The Remembering is my group program for women who are questioning this exact thing. It doesn’t matter what phase of life you are in, what brings us together is our search for what next in our lives.

Be guided by me and learn psychology-backed concepts to find more clarity on what you want, how you want to live, who you want to be and how to live a meaningful and purposeful life.

It’s a 6month program.
8 women only.
Applications are already coming in.

Do you want to be with other women who ‘get it’?
Who you can talk to about what it feels like to be in such a big life change?
Where we learn together how to manage these shifts in your life with grace and beauty instead of fear and stuckness.

Dm ‘remembering’ and I’ll ask you where you are at in your life to start the conversation.

If you are feeling like this. My program THE REMEMBERING is for you.

These are the exact words a lady said to me that captures the BIG LIFE QUESTIONS we will be working on inside the 6-month container.

If you are wondering these kinds of questions, comment ‘remembering’ and I’ll send you a message with the full details of the program.

Xx

Isn’t it exciting to get to be in a place where you can recreate who you are and what your life will look like?
