Words by Richard Tarnas to bring you comfort.

Figuring life out, doesn’t come from thinking more. you understand it by becoming more fully engaged, aware, and open in every part of yourself. to feel it, live it and experience it fully.

A time capsule, Nov 2025 in Essaouira, Morocco

Spent a lot of this time resting.
The thing about moving so much is that it becomes so blatantly clear the cycles we move through from moment to moment.

I look at these photos and I think of all the time I spent on rooftop terrace, and windy walks to the beach. I think about our kitchen, soul warming tagines and mint tea. I also remember how much I struggled that month trying to hold on the grip of reality and stay present within the magic of my life that is unfolding right in front of me.

Land/Places hold our stories and become guided markers, capturing where we’ve been as we move through the dynamic process of giving and taking.

I sometimes have this fantasy where I am standing on a cliff overlooking the ocean, and with two hands I toss my phone and laptop over the edge. Then disappear. Never to be seen again.

I won’t do it (for obvious reasons) but I do want to be more mindful about how often I reach for my phone.

As someone who struggle with doomscrolling and who has a ‘hot and cold’ relationship with sharing online. It’s easy to believe that the problem is my phone or social media itself. To fall into the idea that there are only two choices: full isolation or fully connected.

But there are other ways.
Congruent ways.
Ways to find balance without vanishing.

And in an era of algorithmic performance, stepping away can feel risky. Like I might lose momentum. Or fall behind.

And still, there are plenty of people living full, meaningful lives outside this space. Maybe I will be okay too.

I will be okay to step away. To rest. To let my creativity breathe. To gather my energy again, so that when I return, I can show up more presently and give more fully.

Where am I?
Time has a way of becoming distorted when you live far away from home. Feeling like I am living across different time zones. Present in one, thinking in another.

Calls with my family in Australia.
Voice notes exchange from a friend in LA.
Group chats with the cuzzies in NZ.

Fighting extra hard to stay present when being pulling so many directions.

Finding myself asking, where is my body? What pieces of myself have I left scattered somewhere…
Where is my heart? Where is my mind?

What am I doing? What do I really want? What am I building? To which point will I ever be satisfied and happy?

Retracing my steps like crumbs left behind.

In some case, all it takes is just a moment to pause and slow down, to bring you back to where your feet are.

Learning that the answers don’t matter as much as the questions. That staying awake to it all might be the gift. Not chasing contentment, but feeling every aspect of this experience. Every ache, every joy, every unknown, deeply and bravely.

Slow December in Morocco. Resting and reflecting. Soul-nourishing cups of tea. Long breakfasts. Big bags of orange gifted on our doorsteps. And marvelling a simples joys and beauty of the life.

Over the past year, I’ve kept note of the potent lessons and nuggets of treasure I’ve come to find. Through a year of slow travel across continents, navigating the complexity of living life in unfamiliar places, I’ve found myself closer to a truer version of who I am and what actually matters. Beyond the safety and security of home, the false illusions of what I think should matter slip away, replaced by a deeper knowing of what truly does.

Finding a rhythm to move with life. Handwritten letters to friends. Nourishing my body with love. Creating. Practising consistency. Practising vulnerability. Keeping my word. Resting. Writing. And being a better wife, daughter, sister, and friend.

Some days, I still forget… caught in the hum of wanting, the chase of all I think I should do and all I think I must have. But then, I remember again.

Hoping that, with more time, the forgetting shortens and the remembering stretches wider

12 months ago today, I left Australia with the intention to transform and embody the person I’ve always felt I was but was too scared to act on. But here is the truth… If you already see yourself as whole and perfectly designed, then you don’t need to change or become anything new. You simply just need to reveal yourself by stripping off all that isn’t you.

Before I made the decision to leave my job and home, I had a conversation with God, trying to find the courage to pursue my independent work and travel.

I said ‘God, if you look after me, I promise to do my part, I promise”.

I promise I will look after myself. I will show up every single day and do my best to be present. I will take care of my body, and pray and meditate often, so that mind and heart will see with more clarity. I will continually open myself into the direction of love, truth and faith. And that I will be ruthlessly loyal to in following the signals and symbols that lead toward there.

My prayers were answered, I’ve had the most amazing year unravelling myself to the beauty of life. Getting to see the world, experiencing the humanity of life, observing the best parts, the worst parts. Witnessing myself through so many stages, in so many different environments and getting glimpse into who I really am.

I love my life, I love my work, and I am honoured to be tasked with the role in figuring it all out.

Thank you to everyone who has been witnessing this journey and to those who have shared themselves with me in a professional or personal manner. I love you all!

The year of the snake is coming to an end and I am shedding layers. Remembering my humanness. Remembering that I’m not my work, I’m not what I produce, I am not how much money I make, I am not how you see me, l am not a fixed image on a screen ~ I am porous skin, I am felt-sense, I am guts and blood flow, I am beauty and grief tears, I am in-flow and out-flow; receive and release. I’m the sea. I’m all of the seasons. I’m the moon and the sun. I’m the dirt, the soil, the earth. And I get to be all of what I am, always.
