In today’s podcast we’re revisiting the archives - self care and wellness for spring.
It’s a deep dive my friends with what i hope is a feast for you to explore.
In this episode I’m reflecting on my 40th year, pondering why i get energised around my birthday, and wondering whether fear was motivating me. We talk about ageing today. And societal pressures as we grow older, and i share some insights gained from trauma-i mean “learning moments and experiences” i’ve had.. Lol.
I hope you’ll find it uplifting and hopeful episode.

Read More- i’m all for goal setting, but babes, we have to be real. And also kind to ourselves!
There’s so much emphaisis on what we aren’t doing right, that it feels like we are starting off on bad footing to begin.
These unrealistic goals feel at the root of so much unneccessary tension around new year you know, the “new year, new me” bs. Do you feel me?
This is a love note taken from a recent Digest for anyone feeling discouraged 💌
Expect tools, resources and encouragement!
Is there a record you love that evokes freedom to you?
Perhaps an album that represents a time in your life when you felt your potential so clearly? Or nostalgia as you were exploring new territories?

Read MoreThere is so much talk about self improvement.
But what if we did something radical. And instead of trying to strive to be something else, something more, to have more to be more to acquire more
To be more neat. More fun. More healthy. More fit. More comfortably off. More well travelled. More woke. More liked.
What if we instead,
stopped.
It’s so clear in my many years wandering on this planet that there is a massive tendency to pack in so much around this time of year. Be it the panic so many feel to fill the year and tick off stuff before it “ends”, or the pressure to be in the seasonal spirit of joy and glad tidings.
During this time you might still have stuff to do. Things to fix up.
But you’re reluctant to go at the same pace or rhythm of others, especially when you’re in a different space. And perhaps also exhausted from the year!
So how can we manage our time and energy during the busy season?
I’m here to offer some tips that i hope will help you prioritise and get the important stuff done. Cause amidst the pressure and distraction, you still get to choose what to participate in.
Take your rest seriously this time of year my friends and be well.
Hope you enjoy.

I hope that this offerings might inspire you to feel better during the dark times, and perhaps even encourage you to gravitate towards the stuff that gives you energy during the darker season.
Feel better and let's make the most of the season we are in and embrace it together! ❤️

Read MoreToday, we have a seasonal check in for autumn! Yes! It’s a moment to ponder and puree some ideas about getting intentional with what you want to bring in this season. Very post equinoxxy. Bring a pad and pen if you feel like it. Or your mobile notes app. Or just and most importantly, yourself!
Read MoreMost of you know Eartha Kitt is one of my beloved muses. She inspires me continuously, and whenever i need to press the reset button, or remind myself of my mission on the planet, i take a time out to immerse myself in clips, gifs and words from her (amongst others). A filling up of one's cup, if you will. And i thought that as she offers me so much inspiration, that she might do the same for you too! So here's a selection of cutlets to enjoy.
