Hey strangers 👋🏻
It's been about a month since I took a step back from Instagram. Truthfully, I didn't expect anyone to notice, but I have had some lovely messages checking in. So I wanted to pop on briefly with a little update and some reassurance.
I'm ok.
Last month, my incredible Grandad passed away after a long battle with Alzheimer’s. Yesterday, we celebrated his life in the most fitting way, complete with far too much cake and what felt like hundreds of golf balls flying off South Cerney driving range.
His final decline came at a time when I was already struggling a little mentally. So to lighten the load, I deleted Instagram and removed something that had begun feeling more like pressure than pleasure.
Despite everything else going on, the break felt good. Really good. No thinking about content, stories, filming reels or checking analytics. It was a relief to simply be present in my own life for a while.
I tell my clients all the time that sustainable, enjoyable habits are the only ones that truly support long-term health and wellbeing. So this is me practising what I preach. Choosing to channel my energy into the areas that feel nourishing rather than draining. Family, friendships, my amazing clients, Freddie, fresh air, building my business in directions I only ever dreamt about, and looking after my mind as much as my body.
Thank you for the kindness and the messages checking in. It means more than you know 🧡
