It’s been a glorious few weeks.

Spring, my garden, nourishing foods, slowing down, living my dharma.

But most of all, a lot more presence!

I can’t hold these in any longer! It’s just not worth it!

Seeing so many women become victim to the incredibly toxic diet culture that has somehow become the norm…

Well, this gal isn’t buying into it and I’m just going to be working harder to push against it. Because I know firsthand how many amazing moments of your life that diet culture can rob you of!

Some little May moments…

May is a month that I find very reflective. It’s the month that, 4 years ago, my family and I moved from my home town of Sydney to my husband’s home town of Christchurch.

It’s without doubt been the hardest 4 years of my life. Uprooting your life as an adult is tough. Finding new friends as an adult is tough. Finding places that make you feel happy and at ease is tough when everything is new. Being away from your own family is beyond tough!

All while managing the emotions and upheaval of small people. Focusing so deeply on them and how they are feeling that in many moments, I didn’t tune into me and how I was feeling.

Lonely, lonely and sad was how I was feeling for a long time… it ebbed and flowed. Some days I would howl in pain about this ‘mistake’ I had made. And other days I accepted that there are no mistakes, only learnings. Eventually the days of tears became more sparse and the days of acceptance became the norm.

And now I’m very happy to report that coming into my 4th year here, I’m feeling so much happier, so much more settled and as if I understand fully why I’m here.

Because it’s an incredible place to raise my sons!

The last 18 months have been a huge turning point…

💫 Strengthening and growing friendships with some beautiful women. Some I’ve met through my children 🏉and some I have met at retreats 🧘🏻‍♀️. These women have truly changed how happy I am here and I am beyond grateful for that!

💫 Starting my local business so that im not spending all of my time working online and instead being able to connect with the most incredible women, some who are slowly becoming friends.

💫 Buying our dream home just outside of town in a semi-rural area and sending our boys to the local school! Honestly, the best decision we have ever made!

💫 Spending as much time in nature as I can, connecting with the land I’m lucky enough to be on.

💫 Reframing! Reminding myself of the above! I am very lucky to be able to choose between Aus and NZ as my homes… what a privilege in life that is!

So an ode to taking risks, being patient, female friendships and the healing powers of nature 🌳

The best 3 weeks in the mother land!

Seeing some of my favourite people, eating my favourite foods and swimming in my favourite bodies of water.

Spending time at ‘home’ in Sydney and Berry fills my cup more than anything at the moment! But coming back to NZ to our dream home (that we moved into the day before we went away) has felt the best it’s ever felt and finally, 3.5 years after moving to NZ, it’s now starting to feel like ‘home’!

If you have any you want to me to elaborate on, just let me know in the comments or DM!

The food in Bali would have to be one of my favourite things!

And every time I go to Bali (or travel anywhere for that matter) I’m reminded how grateful I am for all the healing I did all those years ago!

Being able to enjoy food and restaurants without stressing about the calories and ingredients, compensating for it with exercise or being so fearful about it causing a binge eating episode is honestly such a freeing feeling!

So here is a little recap of some of the incredible things I ate! A great post to save if you plan on heading to Bali because I’ve tagged the restaurants for you

Are there certain foods that really trigger a binge eating episode for you?

🍫 is a very very common one! 🥗 is not!

Well, there are lots of reasons why certain foods trigger a binge eating episode and others don’t… this post helps neutralise those binge trigger foods!

So it’s definitely one to save for those tricky moments when the chocolate in pantry just keeps calling your name!
