Here's the thing nobody tells you about transformation: it looks a lot like falling apart before it looks like coming together.
If you're in that messy middle right now, I wrote this one for you.

The Cocoon and The Wings

Standing in this butterfly sanctuary in Anton Valley, surrounded by creatures who understand transformation better than any book or teacher ever could, something inside me softened and broke open, not with grief, but with the kind of recognition that only comes when you finally see yourself reflected in nature's wisdom.

Butterflies don't resist the cocoon.
They surrender to it.
They allow themselves to completely dissolve, cells breaking down, form dissolving into something unrecognizable, trusting that on the other side of that darkness, there will be wings.

And isn't that what we're all learning?

That transformation requires us to let go of who we've been.
To sit in the uncertainty.
To trust the unraveling even when we can't see what's forming.

The last few years have been my cocoon.
Menopause.
Returning to travel after years of staying still.
Finding my beloved and learning how to build a life that moves with me instead of against me. Weaving song & sound healing into my work.
Returning to my gypsy soul while growing roots at the same time.

None of it felt graceful.
Most of it felt messy.
But standing here, watching butterflies land on leaves and lift off again, I finally understand: the cocoon isn't punishment. It's preparation.

And maybe we don't need to have it all figured out.
Maybe we just need to trust that when the time comes, we'll know how to fly.

This place reminded me that nature doesn't rush transformation.
Neither should we.

Where do you feel yourself in the cocoon right now? And what wings are waiting to unfold?

Much love
Cherie Ashana 💗🦋

Reflections from my time in Bali recently......

Before the world woke.
Before the day asked anything of me.
Before my mind could spiral into doing.
I would sit with a handmade ceramic mug of chai, rose petals floating on the surface like tiny prayers, and I would simply be.

The mug itself was a work of art, rough-hewn, earth-toned, shaped by hands that understood slowness.
The chai was steeped with cardamom, ginger, clove, and cinnamon.
Warming spices that spoke to my womb, my digestion, the parts of menopause that asked me to pay attention.

I was in Bali for sound healing training, learning an ancient practice rooted in Indian tradition, passed down through lineages of healers who understood that frequency can shift what words cannot.
The days were full.
My nervous system was processing layers of new awareness, new responsibility.

And so the mornings became sacred.

I learned that transformation doesn't just happen in the big moments.
It happens in the quiet ones as well.

In the choice to begin the day with presence instead of productivity.
To feed myself warmth before I give my energy away.

For years, I ate on autopilot. Standing at the counter. Working so hard in my business, managing staff, orders, and responsibilities!

Never fully tasting, never fully here. But in Ubud recently, sitting in morning light with this simple cup of chai, taught me that nourishment begins with how we show up, not just what we consume.

The food there was sustainable.
Organic.
Made with love by people who saw their work as devotion.

And I let myself receive it that way too, not as fuel to be rushed through, but as a conversation with my body.

A mug of warmth.
A moment of stillness.
A reminder that the way I nourish myself sets the tone for everything that follows.

This is what I carry into my work. This understanding that healing is not always loud or dramatic.

Sometimes it's just... gentle.
Intentional. Present.

What mindful moments are you carrying with you in your heart right now?

Much love

I realised the other day that so many of you have joined me on this journey recently, and it feels like the perfect time to share a little more of who I am and what shapes the work I do.

So here are 10 things you may not know about me:

I walked through early menopause in my 30s. What felt like a breaking point became the catalyst for stepping into my radiant confidence and guiding other women through midlife transitions.

I am a singer at heart. Voice work is one of my greatest joys and deepest medicines. My S.H.E Singing Circles were born from the belief that every woman’s voice deserves to be heard.

The Australian Bush Flower Essences are my sacred allies. I’ve been journeying with each essence in a two-week immersion to deepen my work and bring lived wisdom to the sessions I hold.

I once almost lost everything. Five years ago, I was on the brink of burnout and losing the business I had built for over a decade. That breakdown became my breakthrough, and from it, AwakenedSHE was born.

My work weaves together decades of experience, from herbalism, iridology, and flower essences to singing, energy work, NLP, Art Therapy, women’s empowerment, and more. Every thread is part of the tapestry I share today.

I believe in the sacred art of self-mothering. Women are conditioned to care for everyone else first, but my work invites us to return that devotion inward.

I am a photographer of flowers. Capturing their essence through my lens is part of how I commune with their spirit and listen to their messages.

I am both poetic and practical. My journey with writing since the age of 14 is where my soul speaks, while my sessions and offerings are grounded pathways for women to embody those truths.

I carry a deep passion for sisterhood. Creating spaces where women feel safe, seen, and celebrated is the heartbeat of everything I do, whether in retreats, circles, or one-on-one sessions.

I am writing a book called The Sacred SHE Reset. It’s a love letter to midlife women, offering tools, reflections, and rituals to navigate transition, burnout, and rebirth with grace.

Thank you for walking this path with me. My deepest hope is that in sharing my truth, you feel inspired to honour yours.

Which one of these speaks most to where you are in your own journey right now?

The Thread That Connects

Those of you who know me will know I'm completely obsessed with tea, in every form.

However, what many of you may not know is where that obsession originated.

For twelve years, I owned and ran an international tea business. I sourced botanicals from around the world.
I blended by hand.
I packaged each order with devotion.
I learned the language of leaves, which calmed, which energized, which healed.

I worked harder in those years than I'd ever worked in my life. My hands were always stained.

My kitchen was a laboratory of scent and intention. And at the time, I thought I was just building a business.

But now, looking back on this season of life, after studying singing this year and then sound healing in Bali, after navigating menopause, and after learning what it means to truly nourish the body as a sacred temple, I see it differently.

That tea business was my first initiation into healing work.

I was already learning about frequency, about intention, about the alchemy that happens when we treat what we consume as ceremony rather than transaction.

Now, as I weave song & sound healing into my offerings, I understand how it all connects.

The devotion to craft.
The understanding that what we put into our bodies carries energy.
The knowledge that transformation happens in the small, sacred moments.

My love for tea never left. It just deepened.
And now, every cup I drink is a remembering.
Of who I was.
Of how hard I worked.
Of everything that dedication taught me about patience, presence, and the sacred art of becoming.

What thread connects your past to who you're becoming?

Sometimes our greatest initiations look like ordinary work, until we look back and see the sacred in it all.

Returning to Flight

There's something deeply poetic about standing in a butterfly sanctuary, surrounded by wings and transformation, realizing I've come full circle, but as an entirely different woman.

For thirteen years, I was a wanderer.
A gypsy soul collecting stories, sunrises, and lessons in every corner of the world.
Then in 2008, I landed. Rooted. Built a life in one place. That place was back in Australia.
The place I was born.

And for a long time, I thought that version of me, the one who moved like wind, who called anywhere home, was gone.
Folded away like a map I no longer needed.

But here I am. In Anton Valley, Panama.
In a butterfly enclosure that feels like a living metaphor for everything the last three years have asked me to become.

Because transformation isn't just about leaving. It's also about the return.
And this time? I'm not traveling alone.

This time, I have my person. My beloved.
The one who sees my wildness and doesn't ask me to dim it.
Who holds my hand and says Let's build a life we actually want, not the one we think we're supposed to live.

We're creating something new.
A life that moves.
That breathes.
That honors my gypsy heart while holding space for depth, for love, for the roots we choose to grow wherever we land.

Standing here among the butterflies, creatures who know what it means to dissolve and reform, to trust the cocoon, to emerge with wings, I feel her.
That younger version of me who traveled the world solo for over a decade.

She's still here.
But now she's wiser.
More grounded.
And, finally, she's not choosing between freedom and love.
She gets to have both.
So here's to the life we're building.
It takes courage to return to who you were before the world told you to settle.
To the magic of finding your person and realizing they're not there to complete you, they're there to travel with you.

And here's to butterflies.
To greenhouses full of life.
To Panama.
To all the places we haven't been yet and all the versions of ourselves we're still becoming.

The gypsy is back.
But this time, she brought her heart home with her.
✨🦋

Where does your soul feel most free?

Much love
Cherie Ashana 💗

For years, I believed mine had nothing to say.
I felt abandoned by my own inner wisdom, cut off from divine guidance.

But she had never stopped speaking.
I had simply forgotten how to listen.

She speaks in body wisdom, in synchronicity, in dreams that linger.

In the sacred pauses between breaths. ✨

There was a morning in Ubud when I sat before a wooden bowl overflowing with colour, and I wept.

Not from sadness. From recognition.

Magenta dragon fruit petals.
Orange nasturtiums.
Deep purple cabbage.
Bright green edamame and microgreens.
Shredded carrot-like ribbons of sunlight.
Beetroot, raw and jewel-toned, still carrying the earth it came from.

This wasn't just a salad. It was a painting. A love song. A reminder that nature has already designed perfection, and we are part of it.

I was midway through my sound healing training, learning an ancient lineage that originated in India and has been passed down through generations of healers.

The teachings were layered, profound, humbling. I was being asked to hold frequencies I'd never held before, to become a vessel for something far older and wiser than me.

And my body? She needed support.

Since menopause, I've learned that I can't push through anymore. I can't override my digestion, my hormones, my nervous system with sheer will.

My body asks for gentleness now. For foods that are alive, not depleted. For beauty that nourishes not just my cells, but my soul.

This bowl was all of that.

Every ingredient was grown in Balinese soil, mineral-rich, tended with care, free from chemicals. It was prepared by hands that understood food as medicine, not a commodity.

And when I ate it, slowly, with full presence, I felt my whole system respond with yes.

The colours alone were healing. Phytonutrients. Antioxidants. Living energy. But more than that, it was the intention woven into every element.

The reverence.
The understanding that what we put into our bodies shapes not just our health, but our capacity to hold transformation.

I've carried that wisdom home with me.
That we are not separate from nature, we are nature. And when we eat in alignment with that truth, everything shifts.

Much love 💗

This Wednesday's letter: "The Sacred Language of Your Soul"

The answers you've been seeking externally have been living within you all along.

Time to remember the voice that is wise, loving, and completely trustworthy, if only you create the space to hear her. 💌✨

Check out this week's Substack article waiting for you...

https://open.substack.com/pub/awakenedshe/p/the-sacred-language-of-your-soul?r=5fcxkm&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true

She speaks through the body's wisdom, the way your chest constricts when something isn't aligned, the way energy flows when you're moving in the right direction, the way certain choices make you feel more alive while others drain your life force.

She speaks through the dreams that won't let you go, the patterns that keep showing up, the relationships and opportunities that appear exactly when you most need them.

She whispers between heartbeats, through dreams that linger, in the knowing that settles in your bones like ancient truth.

She doesn't compete with the world's noise.

She waits.

Patient as sunrise, gentle as rain returning to earth.

Are you listening?

When the Ritual Finds You Anyway

There's something beautifully humbling about stepping into the unfamiliar without your usual comforts.
No handmade ceramic mug.
No perfectly brewed pot steeping in morning light.

But here's what I'm learning, and what I hold space for women to remember in their own becoming: the sacred doesn't live in perfect conditions.

It lives in your willingness to show up anyway.

Sometimes transformation asks us to leave the comfortable behind. To sit with what feels messy or makeshift. To brew our chai on an unfamiliar stove and call it enough.
Because it is.

This moment, imperfect, improvised, a little bit awkward, reminded me that the ritual isn't about the setting.
It's about the intention I bring.
The pause I create.
The way I choose presence, even when nothing looks the way I imagined.

My work with women often begins here, too.
In the space where we've left behind the familiar versions of ourselves and haven't yet found solid ground in the new.
Where we're making do, figuring it out, learning to find ourselves in the between.
And somehow, in those liminal spaces, the chai still tastes like devotion.

What ritual follows you, even when you're far from home?

Boronia: Presence Restored
There are seasons in our lives when the mind will not stop spinning. Thoughts circle endlessly, caught in what was lost, what might have been, what we cannot seem to let go.

Boronia is the flower essence that gently breaks this cycle. Its medicine brings clarity where there is mental chatter, peace where there is looping thought, and presence where there has been longing. It supports creativity in flow and invites us back into the richness of the now.

When I work with Boronia in my Flower Essence Sessions, I see women rediscover their capacity to be here, fully present, no longer consumed by regret or obsessive thinking. The flower becomes an ally in untangling what holds the mind captive and returning to the calm ground of presence.

Right now, as I journey through each essence in a two-week immersion, Boronia has been teaching me that freedom is found not in holding on, but in releasing.

Its message is simple and powerful: your peace lives in this moment.

If your mind feels crowded with unfinished conversations or lingering attachments, Boronia may be the essence calling you. In a Flower Essence Session, together we uncover the flowers that mirror your soul’s needs, creating a custom blend to support your emotional clarity and energetic reset.

If you are ready to experience the presence and peace Boronia offers, I invite you to book an Unearthing Call with me to explore how a Flower Essence Session can support you.

Comment "Boronia" below to receive the booking link to my complimentary unearthing call. I'm so looking forward to connecting with you soon, beautiful woman.
