The grass isn’t always greener… sometimes it’s just different.

Lately I’ve had moments of missing New Zealand — certain people, places, ways of being. And with that can come the quiet question: Did I make the right decision?

What I know is this:
Two things can be true at the same time.

I can miss aspects of where I came from and still know that moving was the right choice for me at the time. One doesn’t cancel out the other.

We’re so conditioned to label decisions as good or bad, right or wrong. But those labels are often unhelpful — especially when we’re making thoughtful, values-based choices in complex seasons of life.

This wasn’t escapism.
It was a considered decision grounded in what I needed most at that point in my life. And it also doesn’t have to be forever.

Growth isn’t always glossy. Social media can sell us the idea that once we choose “the right path,” everything should feel light and aligned all the time. That’s just not real life.

Sometimes growth feels like longing.
Sometimes it feels like grief for what you left behind.
And sometimes it simply feels… human.

If you’re questioning a decision, it doesn’t mean you failed.
It means you’re reflecting.
And reflection is a sign of awareness, not weakness.

Hello and happy February to you x

If you feel, like me, that it’s time to settle into micro daily habits that quietly support a more positive mindset, this email is for you!

Not big life overhauls.
Not rigid routines.
Just small, doable moments that help you feel a little steadier, lighter, and more like yourself.

That’s exactly what inspired my Feel-Good February video series.

Each video focuses on simple practices you can weave into everyday life — things like:

a pause to breathe and reset
a gentle mindset shift
small moments of self-kindness
grounding habits that don’t feel overwhelming
They’re short, supportive, and designed to meet you where you are — especially on the busy, messy, or low-energy days.

You can access the full Feel-Good February series by clicking the link in the insta bio of in the comments below in FB.

Think of it as:

one video = one small habit
one small habit = a gentle shift
gentle shifts = a more positive mindset over time
No pressure to do it all.
No need to be consistent or perfect.
Just tiny steps that add up.

If this series supports you, even in a small way, I’d love you to like, subscribe, or share it with someone who might need a little lift too 💛

Here’s to soft habits, kinder thoughts, and feeling good — one small moment at a time.

Yesterday I spent the day in sound healing training, deepening my understanding of the nervous system, and the use of crystal bowls and other instruments within intentional ritual and group meditation.

Alongside the technical aspects, it offered me the opportunity to reflect on a theme that causes so many people inner conflict & keep people stuck. Awareness of this is critical to the transformation process of so many clients I work with — that is awareness of how we hold our energy, where we place responsibility, and the ways we either contract or expand our own freedom.

When something feels out of alignment, I’ve found that the most empowering shift is to pause and turn inward. Not to self-blame, but to honestly ask what’s mine to own, and what choice is available from here. That shift alone often creates movement, clarity, and relief.

As Wayne Dyer said, “When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.” This perspective isn’t about perfection — it’s about agency. And from that place, life tends to feel lighter and more empowered.
