I’m in something right now that I can’t make sense of.

I can’t share the details because it’s not my story to tell but I can share how it makes me feel.

I feel confused, angry, heart broken and like I really must do something to help but I have no idea how to.

Generally I look for the lessons in things but sometimes it’s really hard to find a single shred of good in a spectacularly messed up scenario.

That’s ok.

If you’re trying to make sense of a challenge right now and struggling to find a positive, a silver lining or a lesson,

Here’s how I invite you to process-

Sit with it.

Observe your feelings. Name them if you want. Allow it to feel however it feels without judgment and let all of those emotions move through as they need to.

Write it

Journal your way through it. Writing about all of the stuff, thoughts and feelings help to take it out of the brain soup and make some sense of it.

Share with discernment

Talking to trusted people. Seeking advice, support and listening ears in trusted circles who may be able to help.

Slow down

Take it slow and gently. You can’t rush emotional processing. Be gentle with yourself. Take walks, showers, mental health day, whatever you need to support your energy.

Pushing through may seem stoic, but in the long run, it will come out in unresourceful ways of you don’t give it the attention and love it nada to be processed in healthy ways.

Whatever you’re going through, it won’t feel like this forever.

So much love to you x

My biggest lessons were not told to me by my Mum,

My biggest lessons were not told to me by my Mum, but observed through her as she navigated our relationship and her own life.

This glorious human showed me what unconditional love means.

She showed me that love does not control and put boundaries on another.

Even if you fear their choices.

She taught me how to be affectionate, open and show up for people with love.

She showed me that love is fun and beautiful and gentle. And silly voices are almost always appropriate.

This magnificent human taught me the power of communication. Your word is your sword, your sword is your power.

While she is more gentle with hers than I ever was or will be, her wisdom often softly reminds me to have more grace.

And less judgement. #workinprogress

This woman, my mum, showed me what it means to be true to your beliefs, stand sure in your convictions and never take yourself too seriously.

She showed me what courage looks like time and again, in moving forward in spite of unknowns.

She also taught me to swear for which I’ll be forever grateful because now I’m one on the best. #fact

She showed me what humility looks like, layered with good humour- always with laughter and smiles.

If you can’t laugh at the absurdity of life....

Her open, honest, chilled but firm parenting has influenced my own tremendously.

She was my everything as a kid.

I do believe we choose our parents, for whatever it is we need to learn from them,

The good, the bad, the messy,

For some, the reasons for choosing are clearer, while for others the learnings are far more complex.

It’s cool if you don’t have that belief also, but this is my love tribute.

I am the woman I am today because of this woman and her love and support. I’ve made some very excellent choices in my life, but this one I made before ‘life.’

What luck and brilliance that was.

HMD, Mama.

Just sitting over here quietly dreaming about someone folding my five loads of washing after they cook me dinner tonight.

Once I manifest that i’ll move on to grander dreams.

You?

I tried to resist. I really did.

But then I thought...

Why would they even put wet cement outside my house is they didn’t want me to????

Exactly.

THIS KILLS ME!! “No, I won’t tell him what’

THIS KILLS ME!!

“No, I won’t tell him what’s wrong. He should just know!”

“She knows what she did upset me.”

“I want more connection and they should be able to tell that!”

“I want to be touched this way and they should know!”

WTF, peeps?

The people you know and love are AMAZING but telepathy is really freakin’ rare.

Stop sabotaging your loved ones by expecting circus tricks from them.

Try talking. It’s ace.

Highly recommended 🌟🌟🌟🌟

When I was 20, my boobs pointed in a good direction, and the same direction.

My face was pretty flawless. I had no pigmentation, nary a wrinkle to speak of, and certainly no saggy jowls.

I had no chin hair, no weird back of thigh mullet, no excess tummy skin from carrying two babies... man, I had no idea what was in store for me.

And I still hated what I saw in the mirror.

All of that yummy youth completely wasted in a cloud of anxiety, insecurity and self loathing.

At 45, I look different. And infinitely lovelier. And not for the reasons you may think.
