January is often quite noisy with invitations to “start fresh.” This year, I’m over forcing a new version of myself into existence.

Instead of pushing myself to be “more” or “better,” I’m practicing stepping back from that inner supervisor and noticing what actually nourishes me.

A short walk, a pause before responding, celebrating small wins - these tiny resets are enough to shift how we feel, gently and meaningfully. Change doesn’t need to be loud; it comes from places of care, curiosity, and attention.

This month, I’m focusing on the small, loving habits that truly make life feel good. What would it feel like to let care, not pressure, guide your next step?

Signing off for the year and officially handing my brain a little holiday. ✨

Wishing you all some calm, cozy, indulgent moments before January rolls around.

My final blog of the year is up – a gentle look back and some ideas for easing into the new year without the pressure.

See you in January! xx

You can do hard things and still be gentle with yourself.

This time of year can feel like a strange mix of cosy lights and tired minds, with a lot of people telling me they feel pulled in two directions. One part wants to savour the season. Another part is quietly running on empty and wondering when the pause will come 😅

So here is your gentle reminder that slowing down is not laziness or failure. It is care. It is protection. It is wisdom. You do not have to earn rest.

In my latest blog I talk about why so many of us feel this push and pull in December, and how to give yourself real permission to step back before burnout arrives.

So grateful for these words. Good sleep changes everything, and it is something you absolutely deserve. If you are running on empty, waking through the night, or just not getting the rest you need, there is support. You don’t have to keep pushing through tiredness on your own.

If better sleep is on your mind, you are welcome to book a free 15 minute Discovery Call to chat about how hypnotherapy could help you too.

I was chatting to a friend this week and she gently pointed out that my own stress bucket was looking a bit… full.
And honestly, she was right.

She asked me the simplest question:
What’s one thing you could take off your plate today, or one thing you could do just for you?
Ridiculously simple. Unbelievably helpful.

It made me laugh because hypnotherapy has a direct influence on the stress bucket - I talk about this all the time. And yet, I somehow forgot to apply it to myself.

So here’s your tiny reminder too: you’re allowed to let something go, and you’re allowed to choose something that fills you back up.

A really varied and fulfilling week comes to a close, and I’m feeling very grateful for the all the people I’ve supported, as well as all those who’re supporting me in turn.

It’s such a privilege to sit with so many different stories and help people find a little more ease, clarity and confidence in themselves.

And now for some me time! I’m excited to clock off in a few minutes, put down my phone, and get stuck into whatever the weekend offers.

If you’re wondering whether hypnotherapy might be right for you, feel free to message me and (next week!) we can have a relaxed chat to see how it feels for you.

The start of December can really turn the volume up, can’t it? I know because from time to time, I feel it myself. More plans, more noise, more pressure to be bright and on top of everything.

If you are feeling a bit stretched or a bit tender, I get it. Let me tell you now that you are not falling behind. You are human, and you’re enough as you are today.

Hopefully this list might help set us on a calmer, more truly sparkly path to the new year. If any of you have your own non-negotiables for seasonal wellbeing, please share in the comments!

Ever feel like you’re just faking it at work, at home, or in life? That’s imposter syndrome - and it’s surprisingly common.

Amy Cuddy’s TED Talk shows how simple changes in your body language can shift how you feel about yourself. Combine that with hypnotherapy, and you can start rewiring old beliefs that hold you back.

Curious how this works in practice, and how you can start reclaiming your confidence? Check out my latest blog for a deep dive.

Discover how hypnotherapy helps overcome imposter syndrome by reprogramming subconscious beliefs and using body language to build authentic confidence, inspired by Amy Cuddy’s TED Talk on presence and power.
