As Valentine’s Day approaches, love is everywhere — and for many people, so are complicated feelings. Closeness can bring up hope and longing, but it can also awaken old protection patterns that live quietly in the body. This is an invitation to explore why connection can feel both desired and difficult at the same time.

After a season of change, slowing down, or simply surviving, returning to “normal” can feel surprisingly heavy. If routine feels harder than expected, it may be less about discipline and more about what your system needs to feel steady again.

Please share to anyone you know that is a local artist in the Fraser Coast area 🧘

🎨 Calling All Fraser Coast Artists 🎨

Something special is coming…

After four months, I am finally ready to start building the Fraser Coast Artist Directory — a brand-new digital magazine created to showcase and support the incredible artists in our local community.

This directory is all about giving Fraser Coast artists an affordable way to be seen, share their work, and connect with people who genuinely want to support local creativity. Each artist will have their own dedicated space to tell their story and showcase their art, with links so readers can easily go on to explore more.

The directory will be promoted through Island View Connect Magazine each month and on its own across social media nationally, helping local artists reach a wider audience — while still staying grounded in community.

If you’re a local artist and would love to be part of this collective, I am now open for artists to join. Once we have 10 artists involved, I will begin to spread awareness of the directory nationally.

Let’s come together, support one another, and celebrate the creativity that makes the Fraser Coast so special 🤍

For more information or to register your interest, get in touch with me, Kelly at hello@islandviewdesigns.com.au, and I will send you a copy of the information and booking form Pdf.

Transitions can feel unsettling, especially when emotions are big and words are still forming. As families move back into school rhythms, there’s often more happening beneath the surface than we realise — for children and for the adults supporting them.

Sometimes the hardest part isn’t what you’re carrying — it’s how normal it’s become to carry it alone. If you’ve been getting through rather than feeling supported, this is a gentle invitation to pause and check in with yourself.

January doesn’t have to start with pressure or big decisions. Before setting new goals, it can be helpful to pause and reflect on what the past season has shown you. Noticing what supported you, what drained you, and what felt sustainable creates clarity — not judgment. When planning comes from awareness rather than urgency, your nervous system feels safer, and direction becomes clearer. Sometimes the most productive step forward is giving yourself space to listen first.

Every January we set intentions with hope — and then wonder why they’re so hard to keep. It’s not because you lack discipline or motivation. Often, it’s your nervous system doing its job: choosing familiarity and safety over uncertainty. This year, you have the power to create more sustainable, aligned resolutions! 🥳

This is a great reminder of the power of positivity and focusing on gratitude and love. 🧘
