Onto my 3rd jar - I’m a bit obsessed ♥️♥️

Even now, women still carry so much pressure to be perfect.

I see it at weddings all the time. The dress, the flowers, the timeline, the photos… the quiet feeling that everything has to be just right.

But the truth is, many of us were raised to believe that being good meant being organised, accommodating, beautiful, calm… and never dropping the ball.

So when people say “just relax and enjoy it,” it isn’t always that simple.

Letting go is a practice.
A soft unlearning.

And the beautiful thing I often see during ceremonies is that moment when it finally happens… when the bride looks at her person, laughs, and remembers what the day is actually about.

Not perfection.
Just love.
I’m getting better at it with age.. but it’s still hard at times .. how about you?

Women loving women will always be powerful.

As Kate Winslet has spoken about so beautifully — when we stop tearing ourselves apart and start standing confidently in who we are, everything shifts.

Love yourself first.
Not in an arrogant way — in a grounded, “I know my worth” way.

And from that place?
Be complimentary. Be generous with praise. Lift the women around you.

There is room for all of us.
Confidence isn’t competition.
It’s collaboration.

When women feel secure within themselves, they don’t compare — they celebrate.

I never expected that something like this would replace our afternoon TV and teenage phone scrolling - but it did 🎨

Paint by numbers.

What started as a “just try it” moment has become our little ritual. Instead of zoning out in front of a screen, we sit side by side, filling in tiny sections of colour, watching a picture slowly come to life.

And the best part? We spend quiet time together

No notifications.
No noise.
Just quiet music, soft conversation, and the simple joy of creating something together.

It’s funny how something so small can feel so grounding.

In a world that constantly pulls at us, this has become our pause.

And I love it more than I can say. You can pick them up for as little as $5-10 at spotlight, Kmart and online. You don’t have to be an artist to create the magic ..

After 18 years as a marriage officiant I’ve come to realise that finding someone to walk beside you on the happiest days is beautiful…
but finding someone who will stay when the days are heavy — that’s everything.

It’s easy to hold hands in the sunshine.
The real gift is the person who reaches for you in the dark, who sits with you in silence, who doesn’t try to fix the storm but refuses to leave you in it.

Love isn’t proven in the celebrations.
It’s proven in hospital waiting rooms, financial stress, family loss, self-doubt, and the ordinary Tuesdays when you’re both exhausted.

Marriage is choosing each other not just when it’s light —but when it’s messy, uncertain, and hard.

Because the truest kind of love says,
“I’m not just here for your joy. I’m here for your becoming”.

Creatine isn’t just for the gym — it’s fuel for your brain too.

Your brain runs on energy. Creatine helps your cells produce ATP (your body’s energy source), which can support:

• Clearer thinking
• Better memory
• Improved focus
• More mental stamina under stress

It may also support mood, muscle strength, and healthy ageing — especially for women as we get older.

Simple. Researched. Powerful.

3–5g of creatine monohydrate daily is what most studies use.

Not hype. Just better cellular energy.
Where it may be most helpful:
• Prevention
• Supporting brain resilience as we age
• Combined with exercise and good nutrition

If you’re thinking about it for someone specific — especially older adults or someone on multiple medications — it’s important they speak with their doctor first.

I started watching Life with Kate YouTube clips these past few weeks… and honestly, they’ve been life-changing.
Something about the way Kate speaks — gently, honestly — it slows you down. It reminds you that you’re not broken, you’re just human.

In the middle of busy days, grief, healing, and trying to hold it all together… those short clips became little pauses. Little reminders to breathe, to soften, to trust life again.

Sometimes it’s one sentence that lands right where you need it. And suddenly, things feel lighter. Clearer. More hopeful.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed or searching for meaning… this might be your sign to watch.

My Burnt Toast Moment

I drove past my TCM doctor for years.
Literally years.

Same street. Same sign. Never noticed. Never stopped.

Then one day — when I definitely felt like I didn’t have time — I pulled in nearby to pick something up for a friend.
I remember thinking, I shouldn’t be stopping… I’m already stretched.

And boom.
There they were.

At the exact moment I’d been quietly searching for a different direction.
For support.
For something that felt more aligned.

That small “detour” — the one that felt inconvenient — ended up being one of the best decisions I never planned.

Such a classic burnt toast moment.
A tiny delay.
A change in rhythm.
A gentle nudge from life saying, this way.

It makes me wonder how often we rush past what’s meant for us… because we think we’re too busy to stop.

Have you ever had one of those moments? ✨
Where the interruption turned out to be the gift?

Funny how a man crunching can send your blood pressure through the roof…
Is it menopause?
Is it years of marriage?
Or is it inherited trauma? 😅

My dad crunched everything.
I can still hear my mum sighing,
“Oh George…”

Fast forward and now my husband has a bowl of nuts every single morning.
CRUNCH. PAUSE. CRUNCH.

So here I am…
Finding my zen.
Practising deep breathing.
Questioning my life choices. 🧘‍♀️

Tell me I’m not alone…
What harmless habit makes you see red?

Little Red Socks

I decided to start this page - for anyone interested in all of the new and interesting information I am learning while on my cancer filled journey. I truly thought I had seen and heard everything while I watched my mother fight cancer for 16 years but now I have information on both sides - the medical and the natural. I have decided to go natural instead of chemo and Tamoxifen and hope to inspire you along the way. “Little Red Socks" title came from these little red socks they give out in hospital and how they touched me in ways I never thought possible.
