Reflecting back on the last week, what an epic and energising event 🙏🏼🧡

- There was SO much to learn
- A practice for everyone
- A community of wonderful souls to meet and connect with
- A simplicity that was so powerful

💫 Start doing what you love 💫

An extra special moment for me, meeting the inspirational having just completed the Level 1 Yin/Yang Yoga, Meridian Theory, Buddha Dharma, and Mindfulness Meditation 🙏🏼

thank you for an incredible practice and for the connection! I can’t wait to come back and practice at the when I’m back in Barcelona!

Thank you for such a simply beautiful event! I’m feeling very heart full and can’t wait to come back!

When was the last time you thought about your strengths, passions and accomplishments?

When I was asked this, my mind immediately jumped to
- Well how was I doing in other people’s eyes?
- Was I keeping up with the pace?

The perspective of everyone else (including AI!) came first before I even checked in with myself!

High performance psychologist Michael Gervais nailed it:

“Our fear of other people’s opinions may be the single greatest preventor of human potential.”

Lately, I’ve been reflecting on this in the age of AI — where the pressure to prove ourselves is louder than ever.

Working with some small groups, I’ve been trying out something simple but powerful:

🧘‍♀️ A mindful pause.

In that pause we reconnected with our uniquely human gifts:
☀️Creativity
☀️Connection
☀️Empathy
☀️Passion

The stuff no algorithm can replicate.

So maybe the real shift isn’t about proving your value.
It’s about remembering it.
Living it. Leading from it.

✨Your presence is your power.✨

How will you use your uniquely human strengths today?

👇 I’d love to hear — share them in the comments.

Community, community, community!

Time and time again I am blown away by how powerful it is when women get together to support each other 💫

☀️ Thanks so much for yet again creating a space for us all to feel not only comfortable, but confident to share our journeys with each other.

☀️ In these spaces we feel seen and heard, able to share with honesty and vulnerability, to share the highs and the lows, and everything in-between.

☀️ I soaked it all up and feel invigorated this morning to continue moving forwards.

☀️ Knowing that we are all in it together and that when we come together, there is nothing but support and inspiration 💫

So if you’re feeling stuck or unmotivated, get out there and CONNECT! So many people waiting to be there to support!

is a great place to start ☺️💃🏻

I had forgotten…

How powerful it is to give myself permission to do something different.

Earlier this week, I went back to a ritual I’d lost — biking into the forest on a Monday.

My soul pulled me toward it.
But my mind resisted — trained to sit at a desk to feel “productive.”

I had forgotten:

🍃 That nature is where my creativity flows.
🍃 That stillness is fertile ground for innovation.
🍃 That we need space to think differently.

Today, beside a lake, I remembered:

☀️ The courage it takes to change.
☀️ The grit, the gratitude.
☀️ The quiet power of choosing your own way.

Whatever is felt deep in your heart…
That’s where you must start. 💫

When in doubt, simplify! 🍃

I felt so overwhelmed this afternoon, a huge to do list and no idea where to start!

I kept launching into things and then worrying I wasn’t doing anything ‘right’ !

Deciding I didn’t want to spend my afternoon like this, I took a moment and gave myself full permission to pause…

🍃one hand on heart, one hand on the belly
🍃 three deep breaths

The result:

💡clarity!

And a sense of lightness! 🌈

The joy of letting go of whatever is going on ‘out there’ and just being with what is ‘right here.’

Whatever is ‘right here’ within you, in this moment, notice how it feels - notice how the body responds 🙏🏼

Just one moment of mindfulness can change the direction of our day. 💫

What could you simplify today?

03/06/2025

🍃 What are you grasping to? Why would happen if you let go, just a little?

🍃 Letting go isn’t giving up.
💫 It’s allowing the creativity emerge within the space that is created when we loosen the grasp.. even just a little.

🍃 Sometimes fear isn’t fear of failure — it’s fear of being seen.

🌘 Start with curiosity.
🌓 Follow with courage.
🌕 And let your creativity lead the way.

☀️ Remember, no-one can be better at being you!

Welcome June 🧡☀️

26/05/2025

The impact of reconnecting with the seasonal shifts has been transformational, in my own life, as well as my clients.

Why? 💫

Because when we give ourselves the space to slow down enough, even from time to time, we notice:

🌕 How we feel
🌕 Where our energy levels are
🌕 What has changed around us

Every day our experience is different from the last, even in the subtle ways. This space gives us the clarity we need to:

🌕 Respond, instead of react
🌕 Approach challenges calmly and clearly
🌕 Move forwards with more self-awareness and empathy

What do you notice today?

Curious to learn more about nature’s role in well-being, and how we can learn from it day to day?

I’d love to connect!

Also, have a read of the latest Summer edition - packed full of insights and tools!

It has been a real honour to write for this wonderful magazine over the last two seasons!

… thank you 🙏🏼

Vulnerability..

Something we often talk about, but rarely show.

I was blown away by the impact this moment had on me, and many women in the room.

A rare moment of pure trust and vulnerability.. sharing from one heart to another in such an authentic way 🧡

Last night we celebrated:

🌕 Slow progress 🌕 Little sparks 🌕 Small moments

And everything in-between 💫

Celebrating and embodying the concept of moving slowly, going at your own pace..

☀️ Moving slowly doesn’t mean you’re not making progress…

☀️ It means you are being in the moment, receiving, learning, opening to what is…

☀️ Creativity doesn’t desire an outcome, it requires presence and an open heart 🧡

Soo many more nuggets which I’ll share more on shortly 💫

Perhaps the most powerful moment was in this photo.. a moment of trust and vulnerability, a special moment shared between women who are here for it all.. the ups, downs, challenges, highs..

All of it, with an open heart 🧡

It feels uncomfortable for me to share this poem, but I love it, it means something to me and invokes a feeling of aliveness…

When we give ourselves space for our creative dimensions.. the magic unfolds..

It is totally imperfect, messy, uncomfortable..

Let it be.

Notice how that feels..

So often, the things we quietly love—the ones that make us feel most alive—are the first we sideline.

They don’t seem practical.
They don’t fit the “real world.”
So we bury them beneath our to-do lists and titles.

But those very things—our passions, our creativity, the parts of us we’ve pushed aside—are often the doorway to transformation. To joy. To wholeness.

While I was in India, I found myself writing poetry again. Not for anyone else. Just for me. And something woke up inside.

✨ Sometimes, all it takes is giving a little space to what’s been patiently waiting within.

If you’re feeling that quiet tug… come explore it with me.

Join my seasonal workshop on Saturday 7th June—a space to reconnect with what lights you up, beyond the roles you play.

We’ll pause. Reflect. Breathe. And begin to welcome back the parts of you that are ready to be seen.

🌿 Saturday 7th June | 10am - 1pm | Millers Way Project
