Some days, getting out of bed is the win.
Other days, you move mountains.

Whatever kind of day you’re having, please remember this.

You are strong.

You are brave.

You are doing the best you can.

And that is more than enough.

Not everyone has the “social-media perfect” this time of year.

And that’s okay.

I’ve worked so hard on myself this year.
And still, some things hurt.

That doesn’t mean I’m failing.
It means I’m human.

We’re allowed to feel pain and still believe it can turn into power.

We’re allowed to hope that one day, our happy ever after finds us.

Because things can change.
And they do.

Please remember, not all is as it seems online.
Behind many smiles are quiet battles you’ll never see.

You are doing amazing.

Whatever that looks like for you today 🤍

Merry Christmas, hope you all have an amazing day what ever that looks like to you. For the first time is absolute month...

Christmas Eve has a funny way of amplifying things.

The noise.
The expectations.
The pressure to be “grateful”, present, joyful…
even when your body is quietly waving red flags.

If you saw yourself in this, please hear this part.

Burnout doesn’t always look like falling apart.

Sometimes it looks like holding it all together
while slowly disappearing from yourself.

And no, pushing through one more week
or “just getting Christmas out the way”
won’t fix it.

Your nervous system doesn’t need another to-do list.
It needs safety.

Slowing down.

And permission to rest without guilt.

If today all you do is soften a little,
say no to one thing,
or take five minutes for yourself…

That counts.
You’re not broken.
You’re tired.

And that’s something we can work with 🤍

This year changed me.

Not in loud, obvious ways. In quiet, steady ones.

I’m lighter now.

Calmer. More present.

Not because life suddenly got easier, but because I did the work.

I’ve learned how to look after myself first.

How to stop pushing through everything.

How to trust myself in rooms I once shrank in.

For the first time in absolute years, I’m genuinely excited about what’s ahead.

If this year stretched you too, I hope this carousel reminds you that growth doesn’t always look dramatic, but it’s still powerful 🤍

21/12/2025

I’ve been reflecting a lot lately.

This year has changed me.

Physically, yes.

But more than that… mentally, emotionally, spiritually.

I’m seeing people I haven’t seen for a while and they keep saying the same thing.

“The darkness has gone from your eyes.”

And they’re right.

But it’s not weight loss or surface change.
It’s deeper than that.

I’ve transformed almost every part of my life from the inside out.

That’s what makes me a bloody good coach.

I’m not teaching theory.

I’m walking the path.

There are very few things I haven’t experienced or had to stare straight down the barrel of and work my way through.

Shadow work held up mirrors I couldn’t ignore.

Not just looking… but going back.

To the scared girl.
To the woman who carried grief quietly.
Making peace.
Finding strength.
Choosing to move forward.

And now I get to support my clients from a place that’s real.
Grounded.
Lived.

This path finally feels like home.
I walk into rooms and feel energised.
I feel my body shine from the inside.

I get genuinely excited watching my clients transform.
I’m excited for what’s coming.

Grateful beyond words for the support around me.

And so ready for what’s next.

The reason these posts feel personal
is because they come from lived experience, not theory.

I’m not talking at you.
I’m talking to the version of you who’s been holding it together for a long time.

The one who functions.
Shows up.
Keeps going.

Even when they’re emotionally exhausted underneath it all.

If this week’s posts have been landing, there’s a reason.
You’re not broken.
You’re burnt out.

And you don’t have to carry it alone.

My DMs are open. No pressure. Just a conversation.

PTSD and CPTSD aren’t just flashbacks.

They’re not just about the forces.
They’re not just about abuse.

Trauma comes in many forms.
And a lot of what you’ve lived through shaped who you are today.

But for many of us, it also kept us small.
On edge.
Over-explaining.
Freezing in conflict.
Living in a box we learned to survive in.

Trauma doesn’t end when you grow up.
It changes shape.

And the good news?
The brain can be rewired.
Those patterns can soften.

And your past doesn’t have to keep holding you back.

Survival kept you safe once.
It doesn’t have to run your life now.

You don’t need another productivity hack.

Or better time management.

Or to “cope better”.

You need boundaries that your nervous system can trust.
Most people-pleasing isn’t a personality trait.

It’s a safety response.

You learned that being liked felt safer than being honest.

That keeping the peace mattered more than keeping yourself.

And your body remembers that.

So no, this isn’t about blaming yourself.

But it is about recognising where you’re overriding your own needs on repeat.

And gently… learning how to stop.

This is the work I do with my clients every day.

Not forcing confidence.

Not rehearsing scripts.

But teaching the body it’s safe to choose you.

If this landed, sit with it.
And maybe notice the next time you’re about to say yes when your body says no.

I never set out to be a coach.

I set out to stop breaking myself.

For years I thought there was something wrong with me.
Why I burned out so hard.

Why my mind wouldn’t rest.

Why I felt different, disconnected, too much and not enough at the same time.

What I know now is this:
Those patterns weren’t flaws.
They were learned responses.

Getting support didn’t turn me into someone new.
It helped me come home to myself.

And somewhere along the way, I realised I could help others do the same.

If you’re stuck in cycles of emotional burnout, self-doubt, or feeling like you’re always the one struggling…

You’re not broken.

You’re overwhelmed.

And support changes everything.

🤍

If rest makes you feel guilty, it’s not because you’re lazy.

It’s because your system has learned that stopping isn’t safe.

Emotional burnout often shows up in women who’ve been reliable, capable and “strong” for a long time. You keep going because you can. Not because you should.

So here’s something small you can try today.

Instead of resting properly (which might feel impossible),
practice resting without explaining yourself.

No justifying.
No earning it.
No turning it into productivity.

Even two minutes of doing nothing on purpose is a signal to your nervous system that you’re allowed to pause.

You don’t need more discipline.
You need permission.

And if this landed, you’re not alone 🤍












14/12/2025

Your entire life can change in a year.
Not because everything magically fixes itself.
But because one day you decide to live yourself enough to stop settling.

Enough to notice what no longer fits.
Enough to believe you deserve more than survival mode.
And brave enough to ask for it. To choose it. To demand better for yourself.

Growth doesn’t always look loud.
Sometimes it’s quiet decisions made behind closed doors.
But they change everything.

You’re not asking for too much.
You’re finally asking the right things.
