I got this message this morning 🥹
And it reminded me exactly why I choose to keep showing up and sharing the parts of my story that once silenced me.

For a long time, I didn’t have the words.
I just had the feelings — the heartbreak, the confusion, the exhaustion of surviving spaces that never should’ve been in in the first place.

But now?
I’ve been learning how to turn the “me” into “we” (with help from one of my crew)

To speak from the scar, that is in fact healed into something more beautiful, not the wound.
To let my healing become a bridge for others walking through their own fire.
I remember feeling alone.

So if you’ve ever felt like your story is too messy, too much, or too tender to share…
I want you to know: there’s someone out there who needs to hear the truth only you can speak.

This is why I keep sharing..
Not for the likes. Not for the pity.
But for the quiet messages in the inbox that say:
“Your words gave me the courage to find my own”
“ your words to remind me that I’m not alone”

I am no writer.... just a girl committed to figuring out where she fits in this wild world, and then taking as many people as she can with her!

I remember her.

The woman who moved with ease.
Who didn’t argue. Who didn’t defend or explain.
She didn’t need to — her energy was peace.

I was her, once.
And then life placed me in rooms, relationships, and collectives
where I was challenged to survive instead of just be.

Where softness wasn’t safe.
Where silence was mistaken for weakness.
Where I had to build fences — not to keep people out,
but to keep myself in one piece.

And I adapted.
I became fierce. Protective. Reactive.
I stopped recognising the quiet version of myself that never had to flinch.

But she’s coming back.
Not all at once — but slowly, steadily.
With every breath, every safe space, every boundary I hold with grace.

These days, my protection doesn’t look like barbed wire.
It’s not sharp or angry.
It’s a bright, consistent light around me that says:

“I will be treated sacredly.”

To the ones who knew me before — and to the ones who’ve only met me in survival:
I’m still her. I’ve always been her.
And I’m coming home.

Day by day, week by week, month by month, year by year I see the growth!

Eventually I want this to become a wananaga, so we can walk each other home, hand in hand…for the meantime though I am celebrating me !

✨ Case Study Call-Out ✨
I’m currently expanding my kete with an NCEA-accredited Holistic Massage Therapy qualification — a natural add-on to my anatomy and physiology study, and another beautiful layer for Hippie Daze.

As part of this, I’m needing 10 case study clients who are open to receiving a full-body holistic massage.

💆‍♀️ This is:
• A therapeutic massage with a holistic approach
• Not Mirimiri
• And absolutely no woo-woo – just grounded, nurturing bodywork

Sessions are koha-based, and non-financial exchanges are totally welcome — a homegrown gift, a handmade item, a little favour, or simply your honest feedback.

If you’re feeling the call to be part of this journey, please drop a comment and I’ll reply privately next week!
These sessions will take place the last half of October.

Mauri ora ! Thank you !

Yesterday I came home to blood in the driveway and splattered through the house — but no Onxy in sight.
My heart sank :(
Not knowing where she was or if she was gut wrenching… especially as the sun went down and the frost set in.

Here I was, torch in hand, pacing the neighbourhood like a mad woman in the dark, calling her name through the cold. Honestly, I must’ve looked completely unhinged 😅

The feeling when I finally found her….alive….injured, but home — was overwhelming. That kind of gratitude hits right to your bones.
She had surgery today and has a couple of months of healing ahead. But she’s safe. She’s resting. And I’m so, so thankful.

And you know…this is the cost of love, isn’t it?
We open our hearts wide, knowing full well it could hurt us — but we love anyway. We ache. We worry. We cry in the dark with torches in hands. And we do it all because they’re family.

Every other worry I had yesterday? Gone the second she was back in my arms.
Asking the collective for some healing vibes for my girl 🖤

Happy Cancer Season ♋️

Bit of an overdue update - with a side dose of vulnerability.

This time of year always seems to come in hot. Not chaotic, just full. Full of feeling. Full of shifts. Full of life asking for my attention in every direction.

I’m literally yawning as I type this (I am sleeping sooooo poorly at the moment! Is anyone else??????), my wairua cup’s been running on the lighter side lately, and I’ve felt it in my bones.
Some of the practices I normally show up for (in myself and for others) have been quieter.
Sometimes energy just needs to go where it’s most needed, and I’ve trusted that.

That said — I am SOO ready for this weekend’s Reiki workshop. I know that’s going to overflow the cup ❤️
it’s true what they say: if you do what you love, you’ll never work a day in your life.

I’ve been a little quiet online — but behind the scenes?
I completed my Anatomy & Physiology studies with distinction
I wrapped up my Te Reo Māori course
I’ve ticked off a few other big life things I’ll spare you the list of…
And then I took some time to just rest and regather.

Looking at my life — the kids, the mahi, the study, the pets, the whare …the rest …..sometimes I pause and wonder how I actually manage to not just hold it all… but thrive.
Every time, it comes back to this…
My mindset saves me — because when I trust my path and move in alignment, life unfolds exactly as it should.
My life carries no resistance..

Right now, I’m being asked to pivot and pour more of myself into the work I do with my charitable trust and the events we’ve got coming up.

Later this year, I’ll be turning my sights back to our regular public offerings — the meditation circles, sound healing journeys, and workshops that bring us together in all the best ways.
Though you might catch me sneaking a few in before then 👀 surely !

So watch this space —
I’m not just coming back.
I’m coming back better than ever.

Well this post is glitching as I write it now, apparently it’s a bit long !
If you have made it this far comment your favourite colour heart emoji…❤️

Have a blessed night x

A cancellation means a spot has opened up!

🌟 Most healers know it’s their destiny long before they ever begin to practice.
Maybe you were that deeply empathetic child…
The one who felt everything?
Picked up on energy in the room before anyone spoke?
Dreamed things before they happened?
Lived with a constant sense of déjà vu?

If you’re nodding along, I’m inviting you into something special—
✨ A chance to harness those gifts
✨ Learn to work safely in wairua
✨ And step fully into your healing path with confidence and guidance

Because knowledge is not meant to be kept—
It grows as we share it.

➡️ If you’re ready to read energy, channel healing, and deepen your spiritual knowing, our Level 1 Reiki Workshop is for YOU.

In this powerful wānanga, you’ll:
🔹 Learn the ancient art of Reiki and how it empowers your life
🔹 Tap into Chakra energy for deep healing and insight
🔹 Strengthen your intuitive confidence with energy reading techniques
🔹 Work with sacred Reiki symbols for protection, balance and flow
🔹 Learn vital practitioner safety so your mahi is grounded and safe

This is more than a workshop—it’s the beginning of a deeper journey.
A spiritual activation. A reconnection to your calling.

Alongside learning this powerful modality you will also be offered the opportunity in circle to release everything that is no longer serving you!
Are you ready to evolve?
Take my hand, darling, and let me leave the way !

If this is calling you, please send me a PM !
I will send you the information pack , and pricing options.
Subsidies are available !

We are waking up to a really fun full moon today 🌝

The moon is in Capricorn ♑️ and the sun is in cancer ♋️.
It’s boss energy, but it’s heart lead.

Capricorn turns up in a business suit asking you …. Are you goals and surroundings still serving you?
What are you working towards right now?
Are you moving at a pace that is sustainable? ?

While the cancer energy ensures that Capricorn still has its fluffy socks on under that suit reminding us that our thoughts and decisions don’t only need to make sense but they need to be heart lead. 🧠❤️

To make the most of these energies today, I encourage you to take even five minutes to practice some grinding!

Bare feet on the earth 🌍
Hug a tree 🌴
Spend some time outside, eyes closed , heart open listening to the birds 🦅

Give yourself this time today and let yourself absorb the new energy and downlights available

Mauri ora xx
