Loving Life in Wellies

09/12/2025

A little project I started this year for my short attention span 😂. was a 5 minute (and under) podcast, or a slow-cast as I like to call it with micro moments of honesty + reflections.

Apparently it reached 7 countries. 🥳

I’m hoping to release a few more episodes this month to wrap up the year 🎁.

Today’s been about small joys like getting accepted to be a volunteer for The Cinnamon Trust, planning next year’s day retreats (they will be on the website soon), visiting a local craft fair for festive gifts, and scouring Vinted for pre-loved yoga + yogalates equipment.

Past! I’m just about to head into my Somatic + Restorative yoga teacher training, so I’m keen to get my hands on pre-loved Bolsters so keep me in mind if you know of anyone getting rid of any! 🫶

I had my own date with the sauna today and some scrummy cake! It was glorious standing head on in the rain + wind, letting a few tears escape and laughter fill the cold air. Thanks niku-naku sauna. 🫶 I’m looking forward to working with you next year.

I’m excited to be seeing some of you soon for my last winter solstice inspired ‘Stretch & Sauna Club’ of 2025 and long may they continue at The Forge too! 💚

What a fabulous time we all had for my good friend’s birthday last week!

It’s been a really difficult week adjusting to my new normal but what’s made it very lovely is all of the msgs I’ve been getting. 💚

I was doing some website / social admin recently and I can’t bare to take her pictures off just yet so I’m not going to. She taught me so much about trying new things and keeping playfulness alive & that will always be the core of Loving Life in Wellies. 🙏

She’s gone. She’s really gone. And it doesn’t feel real or fair. I was with her right up until the end, and I think I can say I know exactly what it feels like to be in the moment — watching her take her last breath, making the hardest decision I’ve ever had to make.

That doggo of mine (Baby Bel) lived a thousand lifetimes in nearly ten years.

Ten years is such a long time for a soul to walk beside you and yet it doesn’t feel enough, and she filled every one of those years with whole worlds of her own — the tiny rituals, the routines, the joys, the moments that stitched themselves into my life.

A thousand lifetimes of companionship… that’s exactly what it felt like, and I could happily do another thousand with her and it would never be enough.

I know you’ll be preparing for your next adventure Baby Girl. 💚🙏😍

‘We’ in the hills don’t believe in gritters around these parts. 😜

I know I say it ALL the time but the best bit about mobile massage is I get to meet the cutest of companions. 🫶 I got the 5 star treatment from this sweet girl who’s enjoying her retirement.
