Thank you for being here, for supporting my work, and for trusting me with your stories — it truly means more than I can say.

This year has been full of meaningful conversations, beautiful ceremonies, and gentle reminders of how powerful love and community can be.

I’m so grateful for every message, comment, share, and kind word along the way.

This day last year marked my first wedding as a celebrant, for the fabulous D & T! The heat of the Florida sun is a distant memory today, but what an incredible experience to unite two kindred spirits in front of their family and friends 🙏 Brazilian and Irish traditions were respected, and I was delighted to work alongside Ricardo, my co-celebrant, who translated my words into Portuguese 🇧🇷 The highlight was their little girl, P, who, at only two, placed her own ribbon on their handfasting cord. A ribbon was also placed to represent J, her little brother who arrived on the scene earlier this year. Magical, magical, magical ✨

Happy First Wedding Anniversary Mr and Mrs Morais, may the roads continue to rise to meet you and the wind be always at your back ✨🇮🇪🇧🇷🙏☘️

Feeling every letter of this today…🙏🏻

This is the time to be slow,
Lie low to the wall
Until the bitter weather passes.

Try, as best you can, not to let
The wire brush of doubt
Scrape from your heart
All sense of yourself
And your hesitant light.

If you remain generous,
Time will come good;
And you will find your feet
Again on fresh pastures of promise,
Where the air will be kind
And blushed with beginning.
