Energy in your toes instead of bursting through your crown chakra like you wished right now?
Know you’re not alone.

This time of year can be especially laden with expectations as our twitchy insides get in the blow horn screaming ‘this is not how 2026 was meant to start you lazy cow’.

She’s a tough broad our inner critic.
Unforgiving really.

If this is feeling ‘Omgoodness yes’ for you right now take a deep breath and know that you’re not behind, you’re not going to be treading water forever.

Your body and life just have other plans right now.
They’ve got a clock that ticks beyond a realm you can’t even comprehend and they’re not fussed.

They know you’re exactly where you’re meant to be.

Be patient.
Give yourself permission to stop pushing so hard to-get-going.
Your time will come.

It your blinkers on.
Tend to yourself and be kind to the self that’s evolving.

The one who’s doing all the heavily lifting deep, DEEP inside on a level so life changing intricate you can’t even begin to comprehend it.

Be patient.
Your time will come.

At some point, self-development stops being supportive and starts asking you to doubt yourself.

This is a different way.

May it meet you where you’re at.

‘Don’t you rush me’ words that cross my cherry stained lips like a prayer when Mark and I are out and about doing life stuff.

He, set on “getting it done” with the least amount of time and fuss.

Me, happy to dilly-dally and enjoy the process.

Neither wrong. Neither right.

And while we both love efficiency and simplicity, we each have our preferred rhythms and way of doing things.

There are times when moving at the speed and cadence of others is required and there are times when trying to move at the same velocity of another person or people can be detrimental. Not only to your wellbeing but your success.

I’ve seen this in my own work.

The more I tried to keep up with what the experts or my peers were doing the faster I fell behind. It quite literally sent me into a tail spin and the only way out was to press the [EJECT] button.

The more I tried to keep up with — ‘if I can have all of this going on and still show up’ then you can too, the crappier I felt about myself.

I began telling myself that if I couldn’t keep up and work to this speed or volume then I’d never “make it”.

I was so wrong.

Because once I started listening to my body and own rhythm of showing up everything changed. I had more energy because my nervous system wasn’t in fight or flight, and I was clearer and more confident because I wasn’t constantly questioning if I had what it takes.

Once I slowed down and worked with my energy and natural way of showing up my business started thriving.

Not because I was hustling harder, but because I was listening to what worked for me.

Slow can be fast.

Because sometimes moving at the speed of light will only end up transporting you to a place you don’t want to be.

If you’re IN IT right now wondering ‘what the hell is going on?’ know that this weird feeling of discombobulation after an exciting period of growth and shedding is totally normal.

There’s nothing wrong.
You’re not regressing.
You’re not losing it.

You’re just having a natural response to a really strange yet liberating part of the growth process.

Tread softly.
Tend to your heart.
Let yourself be held.
Be patient.

This too will pass and you’ll be all the better for it.
Promise.

As a recovering people pleaser and someone who spent a lot of time unsettled in her body, I spent the good part of the last 20yrs making myself a safe space.

I worked on feeling comfortable being seen, heard, expressed, my quirky style finally embraced, my squishy heart and allergy to small talk no longer making me feel like I don’t “fit”.

Somewhere along the line it stops being about increasing comfort of taking up space & doing your own thing and it becomes increasing your capacity to do things *while* in wobbly discomfort.

This is the work we do together.

We build your capacity to show up in your full flavour even with butterflies fluttering in your belly, to say what you really think and feel even at the risk of being misunderstood or rocking the boat.

Instead of focusing on how life and people recieve you.
We focus on how you receive them.

Together we expand your capacity to move *while* in the discomfort of :
— maybe getting it wrong
— being a learner
— not having all the answers
— saying yes, even though it doesn’t follow the “rules” or make sense to others
— showing up imperfect, raw, real, unapologetic
— being honest about what you think and feel without first running it through your ‘will this cause conflict?’ filter
— doing life, work, business your way, your rhythm, your timelines

This is how my clients leave having embodied their inner leader, feeling more themselves, more capable, more in relationship with life and their creativity.

They expand their capacity to do-the-thing while actually doing-the-thing.

You feel me.

It’s embodiment in action.
No one size fits all formulas.
No waiting till you feel 100% ready (impossible).

Just self leadership on high beam.

I’ve been thinking about death a lot lately.
This season of life’s excavated deep threaded introspection of my mortality, the kind of death I want and the importance of me to live a life free of un-foretold wishes.

More than anything I want to feel deeply satisfied. I don’t want to look back and wish I could have a ‘do-over’.

My dad’s death 25yrs ago woke this kind of living in me. Made the need to wear my heart on my sleeve feel urgent, like breath. Never missing an opportunity to tell someone ‘I love you’, or ‘you matter’.

Lately though it’s been laced with the fragility of my life. The first time I’ve felt any kind of clock ticking other than when I made the decision to not have children.

So when this first question fluttered through my mind yesterday I wasn’t surprised, because as morbid as it is, we take our health for granted. We take our bodies for granted. Until we don’t. Until we’re forced to reconcile ‘sh*t, I really need you’.

Health is my number one value and I still forget to put it first sometimes. Life gets busy, good intentions slide, and I’m not just talking about exercise, because that’s just one notch on the wellbeing belt. I’m talking about the ways in which we tend to our energy, our mental and emotional states, the unseen parts unmet in the mirror, yet sustain us beyond what we can comprehend.

If we don’t care for these parts of us now, when?

These questions, as confronting as they initially were spoke eons to me, they reinforced the vision I have for the way I live and made the dreams I’m bringing to life feel even more aligned (and crucial).

Now is all we have.
Let us not wait.
If your bodies speaking to you, listen.
If your dreams keep tapping you on the shoulder, turn and embrace them.
Make today the day.

I love you. Bye.
