What a way to kick off 2026!

Blessed.
Need more balance in your mahi or life? Try supervision or coaching to learn to remember what is most important to YOU and how to create more pockets of gold in your day.

I did this today. In fact I am still in bed! Sounds a little crazy right? But, I have barely answered my phone, watched movies, drank plenty of water, eaten well, had a nap, stayed dressed for comfort (jams!), and gotten some fresh air in between. I have ticked off most of these things and more, and it has felt great. I challenge you to do the same or similar if you are feeling the need.

Often it's the little things we forget to celebrate.

A small posie of bright colored flowers picked while walking 4kms with a friend, a fabulous sunny weekend, a warm bubble bath as it comes to an end and glass of champagne because why not?!

Don't forget the little things 💜🥂🥳🚶‍♀️🚶‍♀️🤸‍♀️🙏🌼

This has been a big lesson for me in both my mahi and personal life, because, of course the two impact eachother.

This is also what I call an energy and/or wairua leak and we need all we can get of this in this work.

Maybe do a quick audit.
Where are you being too kind AND is it costing you? Where are you leaking energy?
We don't just top up our energy, and wairua, we need to plug up the leaks aswell.

Slow Sunday reads'. How blessed am I?

I was gifted this wonderful book. Another blessing!

Lisa (the author), speaks my language!
I know some of my supervisees can't get enough of this kind of korero (discussion), so if you're one of them or even a smidge intrigued, get yourself a copy.
Maybe this is your sign to your blessing today ;)

Feeling anxious re tomorrow?
Seek out good quality supervision.
Talk it over. Make sure you're not out of balance.
Remind yourself why you came into the mahi with someone who can reflect this back to you.

Wai cleansing. So good for the soul/wairua...tinana etc. Even a shower, bath or walk in the rain.
Let the wai/water cleanse the (tougher) mahi on a regular basis.
