Have a read if your body sometimes doesn’t quite feel like it’s your own body - spot on about the expectation we have of a body that has changed - and how much hormones do in our bodies - if youre a hiker in your fifties or more you’ll provably relate - i did. 🙋🏻‍♀️

This is a must read about the refent fires in the Fitzgerald River National Park.

A UNESCO-recognised WA biosphere reserve is in ruins after fire, yet the catastrophe has barely rated a national headline.

The wildflowers of Western Australia epitomise resilience.
Over their 115-million-year existence in Western Australia’s Southwest they have adapted, diversified, and made the most of the harshest and inhospitable conditions.
Drought, fire, intense heat, soils that lack nutrients, few pollinators – not the most ideal situation.
And yet they endure.
Continue to thrive.
Here are five stunning WA wildflowers that despite the recent fires in the Fitzgerald River National Park will continue to bloom and evolve in their unique ways for millennia.

EDGEWALKERS - walking you closer to nature & your most creative self

It was during a long coastal hike, along the famous Cape to Cape track, immersed in scented Boronias and Honey Myrtle, surrounded by swishing Peppermint Eucalyptuses and low lying prickly Acacias (names I did not know then) that I came to realise two things.

First, I realised that in spite of loving being out in nature I knew very little about the natural world that surrounded me. When I looked at trees I saw, well, trees; when I looked at flowers, I saw colours, red ones, purple ones, yellow ones.

I wondered if other people also felt the same. Whether they were also yearning for a more profound connection and understanding of the natural world, yearning to move like Edgewalkers, effectively across the edge between the structured and the untamed, between the sophisticated and the primal.

Second, I realised that walking, but especially in nature, was, and is, an integral part of my creative process…that I have been doing it for a long time.
