7 years on nearly to the day and friendships still going strong! Few missing on the night but what a great group of people to go through the highs and lows of parenting with!

Photo day today and what a mission! I’m on the learning journey of hair at the moment! When I was younger I would do the hair of my dolls but they didn’t refuse to sit still, not wear what I told them to do or tell me they don’t want that style 🤣🤣

Let’s hope it lasts until the actual photos are taken 😊

Three things I like to include every day in my diet!

Apple cider vinegar - I have a tablespoon a day diluted with water! Why? There are a lot of benefits to it including relieving heartburn, lowering cholesterol, improving skin and helping with your weight loss journey - which is why I take it! It’s good to have before a carb meal!

Ginger shot - not my favourite but I start the day with a shot and I instantly feel like I can take on anything (ok slight exaggeration but does perk you up)! It’s great for the digestive system and helps support a balanced metabolism!

Nuts and seeds (I add raisins too) why? They are a great source of protein, healthy fat, fibres and vitamins! I’ve learnt not to look at calories for them because for years it put me off eating them but then I realised the benefits are far greater than calories, they regulate food intake and body weight!

📚 This week has marked another ‘new’ for me! I have begun my training to become a Qualified Nutritionist. I have wanted to do it for a while and spent a lot of time researching which course and decided to go all in and go for 3 years at the .international to ensure I was 100% qualified to say I was a Nutritionist!

🤸 Why have I decided to branch out even more? Simple put because I want to know what I’m putting in my body and what I’m feeding my children. Long term goal to help others with various health struggles.

🥦 You will notice on my feed that I will start sharing what I am learning so hopefully I can help people get to know their bodies better.

🦶 I am still 100% committed to reflexology and aromatherapy massage and will continue on as normal with just a pinch of more nutrition knowledge.

The things we do for our children! Wet miserable start to the day but when you make a promise to go to the farm you have zero get out rain or shine 😂 (the second half of the day did get better)

I feel guilty saying this as certain days I’ve loved spending time with the girls but there are days I’m on count down till September 🙈

When your daughter gives you a note like this and literally makes you melt! 🥰

Time got a bit of an intro!

I’ve spent most of my career in marketing until I first fell in love with Reflexology over 10 years ago when I was struggling to conceive. After three years I knew I needed a bit of help, my plan A like a lot of women didn't happen, I dreamt of that honeymoon baby which unfortunately didn't happen! I started Reflexology on recommendation, at that stage i'd never heard of it but I was willing to try anything, it was instant love. I was diagnosed with PCOS and put on Clomid for 6 months. Still nothing so the next step with IVF, after a failed attempt we fell pregnant. Reflexology was my time to relax, I knew the stress was adding to the problems so my weekly sessions helped me more than I can tell you.

My daughters are now 6 and 4 years old and I still go to my reflexology sessions mainly for a bit of me time these days :-)

This weekend myself and my husband visited a place we last went 7years ago! 7 years ago we had finished 6months of clomid and a failed round of IVF! We needed to reset! 7 years later we were in a completely different space! We went to celebrate a Birthday but also celebrate how different life is now! 2 amazing girls later our future looks very different! For everyone struggling with fertility it’s a tough journey but you’re not alone!❤️

Today I realised how much kindness is actually around! I was in a shop with my young daughter she wanted to buy some small Easter crafts but the shops tills were only accepting cash which I didn’t have! Two extremely lovely women offered to buy her one of the items! I declined but was blown away by the kindness!
