This year, the interesting-sounding 2022, my motto is: Trust and enjoy yourself Simple, yes, but powerful. Here’s why. Perhaps joy is something not put first but it is actually a profound and important way to progress and be happy in life. If you decide to just do things because you enjoy them, and trust that… Continue reading What my new year motto means to me

My 2022 Vibe (podcast)
Another year has come and gone. This year I wanted to root down and settle into my life. I feel like I didn't quite achieve this vibe, and that's okay. There were a lot of external factors influencing this feeling, but I've worked on those things and I think settling in will happen more naturally… Continue reading My 2022 Vibe (podcast)
Don’t be blinded by the negative
Why don’t we allow ourselves to be happy? Why do we steal from ourselves so often? I cried during yoga the other day because a thought came into my head and overwhelmed me: Good things are allowed to happen to me… Why did this bring me to tears? Why did this resonate so much? Because… Continue reading Don’t be blinded by the negative
“Exposed” – creative stream of consciousness/journal entry
I’m not myself. It’s like the skin has been peeled away entirely, leaving exposed muscle and nerves and fragile bones. A simple gust of wind and I feel it all over, rubbing against tight strings of ligament barely holding me together. I ache. How long have I been like this? As fragile as a glass… Continue reading “Exposed” – creative stream of consciousness/journal entry
Embracing Life’s Grey Areas (podcast)
Today I'm talking about how things can be true and untrue at the same time and that's totally confusing and totally normal! So we should embrace the grey areas, speak in fewer extremes and certainty, and free ourselves with questions that have no definite answers! You're ugly and pretty! You're dumb and smart! You're free… Continue reading Embracing Life’s Grey Areas (podcast)

Anti-Perfectionist & Reality Checking Messages for Your Week!
In keeping with the theme of the Undoing Series with the Control, Compete, Create culture cycle I think a lot of us are stuck in, I wanted to pop in with a calmer post with just some quotes, inspo, and messages from me which I feel are anti-perfectionist and a good reality reminder! Here they… Continue reading Anti-Perfectionist & Reality Checking Messages for Your Week!
Confessions of an Overthinking Mind (podcast)
For a few weeks, I've felt a little off. Not bad, just off. An ickiness has settled into my body and I've needed a shift in energy to get rid of it. I've analysed myself, hated myself, beat myself up. I've been a perfectionist and berated myself for not stacking up. Here are my confessions… Continue reading Confessions of an Overthinking Mind (podcast)
Undoing Series: Reality Checking
I wanted this to be the first post in the Undoing series because it’s the most important. If you don’t read any others, that’s fine, but this one will help you with all the other areas because it’s more of a tool than a concept or abstract idea. When it comes to feeling low about… Continue reading Undoing Series: Reality Checking
The Undoing Series: The Control, Create, Compete Culture Cycle
In the last podcast episode, I came up with this idea: Control, Create and Compete Culture. We'll call it the 3Cs. Today I will be walking you through what I mean by these things and why we (some of us) have a toxic relationship with them in our society today. Control Firstly, control. I have… Continue reading The Undoing Series: The Control, Create, Compete Culture Cycle
