19.01.2022 It's not a linear and logical path the body and mind take to demonstrate to us when we aren't being our true self. Or when we feel uncertain of our path and our next steps. But there are ways to check in with yourself. In this free article I list out the common reasons why I see people disconnected from self, the life they really want to live and their self identity. It also includes many of the common signs and symptoms you can experience physically, mentally, emotionally ...and more so you can do a little self check in here.

19.01.2022 What is or isn't "trauma"? Things aren't black and white! Especially when it comes to discussing trauma. Spoiler alert - everyone has experienced trauma's of some description. ... I speak about comparing our experiences to others and how it add pressure to your journey or even lead you to dismiss what's happened because it's not "as bad" as what someone else is going through. Please stop comparing. There isn't anyone to compare to. I'll be speaking more about the Foundations of Trauma Recovery for a free online workshop on Wednesday the 2nd of December at 1pm.

18.01.2022 I have heard your requests! Over the past month I seem to be constantly asked: "When are you opening up spaces for Energy, Reiki & Sound Healing sessions?" So, I have opened up space in my schedule to be able to take on 6 clients for these sessions starting now to the end of February. ... Please note these consultations are in person and therefore can only be available to those on the Central Coast NSW or those able to reach the coast. I've included a little reminder of some of the benefits you can gain from energy consultations combined with coaching work in this post. If you want to take up one of those 6 spaces dm me. #energy #reiki #soundhealing #traumarecovery #centralcoastnsw #newspacesavailable

18.01.2022 When you lose faith in yourself, your decisions, your judgement etc. You can find it tricky to make decisions. Even seemingly important or so called "no brainer" choices that should or used to come easy for you. Self identity and self sabotage have some connection in this instance then, I believe, as there is a component of not trusting your own choices and decision making. Especially when you have gone through experiences where you were hurt, blindsided, taken advantage of ...or worse. In order to step back into your true self you must reconnect with your own inner trust and judgement also. Life will give you many chances to not only trust that you'll make the right choices for yourself, but that you will also be able to stand your ground, set healthy boundaries, honestly say no when you mean it and do it all from a space of integrity, whilst honouring your true innate nature. If this speaks to you and you want to gain more trust within yourself come join me on a free online workshop 'Rediscover Your True Self' this Thursday.

18.01.2022 Q&A Healthy Boundaries. One of the questions has been about how to have authentic relationships and form healthy boundaries. I share some thoughts and tips on this one.

17.01.2022 Are you waiting for particular things to "come together" before you truly start living? Do you give yourself time to have fun, play, be silly, daydream, have a laugh etc. or are you doing all the "adulting" all the time? I don't believe we should be serious all the time, so I share one of my silly fantasies. ... If this resonates with you in some way and you want to embrace more pieces of the puzzle that make up who you are, then come play with me at our free online workshop this Thursday.

17.01.2022 Q&A answer on how to handle a job/working situation that feels soul crushing. Work identity in itself is such a massive topic and you can place a lot of your worth and value on what you do, don't do, your title, your ambition etc. So. Much. Pressure! But, firstly I want to remind you that YOU ARE NOT YOUR JOB. It isn't WHO you are, it's not the essence and core of you, it's something you DO.... Secondly, I want to point out that wherever you are right now is not forever. This is a chapter in your life, it's not your entire story. So here are a few other things to contemplate: 1. I feel that everything in life happens for a purpose. Perhaps this current job is for you to learn something or meet someone you otherwise may not have. 2. The fact this grates you allows you to become curious. Knowing what you don't want actually helps you to discover what you do really want. Allowing you to further your relationship with yourself and where your direction in life is going. 3. Awareness is key, being aware of how this job makes you feel gives you opportunity. It's a chance to feel the misalignment and the saying goes "you have to feel what you need to heal". So feel it, and let it help drive you towards something that speaks more true for you. 4. Once you have clarity on 3. then you can take action towards something you do want. (Thus preventing you from becoming someone who year after year stays in something that makes them truly miserable.) 5. Forget anyone else's opinion. What you do for work/income/career doesn't actually make up your personality and therefore any judgements on you only actually reflect them and not you. If you're judging yourself, once again opportunity to reflect on how you speak to yourself. 6. I'll say it again...YOU ARE NOT YOUR JOB. I can't stress that point enough. So much of your identity can be put into what you do, but I don't believe human beings are placed on this earth just to work, there is so much more to life than just that.

17.01.2022 Continuing on with meeting some of my tribe... I love that I rarely have to look further than to the people I've got in my own little hemisphere for wisdom and inspiration. We all need a team, an entourage of people who we look to for all types of help, friendship and support - both personally and professionally. Johannes and I met almost 2 years ago at a social event...you remember back when we could do more of those things. ... I didn't know back then that Johannes would be such a pivotal person with my own inner journey. Johannes is known as the breathwork and cold therapy guy, but there is so much more to it than that. For me it goes hand in hand with all I've done professionally and for my own personal development over the course of my career and life learning thus far. Johannes is an important part of my team! Who is a part of your team, your support network? We all need them in all various ways. #support #tribe #yourpeople #weallneedthem #whoareyourgotopeople #entourage #team

14.01.2022 What do you do when you feel "out of sorts"? Today I have a John Muir quote that always resonates with me. Nature, mountains, getting into the bush and countryside always helps me when I find myself not in my centre. What helps you come back to your true self?... Comment in or dm your answers. #findyourcentre #outofsorts #whenthingsgettoyou #whatdoyoudo #wheredoyougo See more

14.01.2022 Where are you "should-ing" all over yourself? Such a seemingly simple word with so much weight and impact behind it. Should be doing this, should be doing that, should be, do or have x,y,z...why??? I explore a bit of the whole 'should' phenomenon we play in our heads.... How many times during the course of the day or week do you "should" yourself and over what areas of your life? If your keen to dive further into this then come join me for my free online workshop "Rediscover Your True Self" on Thursday.

12.01.2022 Whether you believe in serendipity or you call it god/universe/mother nature/fate/destiny etc. I fully feel there are forces at play far grander than anything you can conceive in your mind.

12.01.2022 Q&A - Work Identity. This is a topic that carries so much weight regardless of the actual question. Today's question was specifically in relation to how to handle a job that feels soul crushing. I touch on some things to potentially consider here. Comment or dm your questions to me this week....

10.01.2022 The stories we tell ourselves. We all have old stories, you know what I mean, the old baggage we carry around. The stories about what happened to us in past relationships, jobs, financial stuff, health stuff and everything else in between. My question for you today is how are those old stories holding you back?... How are past traumas or life challenges preventing you from moving into the present and/or the next chapter of your life? How do you start letting go of the old and make way for the new? Come and find out more on Wednesday the 2nd of December at 1pm for The Foundations of Trauma Recovery free online workshop.

10.01.2022 Q&A answer. Firstly, thank you for having the courage to ask this question. It's a real question that affects a lot of people. Secondly, I don't feel depression, anxiety and the vast array of emotions that we all feel can be summed up in one simple post. The magnitude of these emotions is massive. However, I do want you to know it is ok to feel all types of shitty feelings. Not just when you are going through challenging times in your life or experiencing changes, it could b...Continue reading

08.01.2022 Life can throw you so many freaking challenges, curveballs and unexpected changes it's unimaginable and can be completely overwhelming too. When you have major life events that happen you can lose your perceived identity. You can also feel uncertain of how to tackle what's happening in your world in order to come out the other side. It's ok to feel knocked down, it's even more courageous to get help to get back up, feel stronger and more you than ever before. If this resonates and you want to find out more. Come join me for a free online workshop "Rediscover Your True Self" this Thursday. Link in comments to register.

08.01.2022 Trust - Life and the Process. In our trust chats so far we have spoken about a few aspects. Today I wanted to start the piece about trusting that life has better things in store for us than we could even dream of. I'm curious to hear your thoughts on this section. Comment in or dm me your answers to my questions. #trust #life #theprocess #trusttheprocess #lifehasaplan #lifehasyourback #commentordm

06.01.2022 To honour the Q & A's coming in I'll be doing clips and blog posts as well. I feel boundaries are quite often ways to help express to others how you like to be loved, communicated with, supported, cared for etc. Yet I feel 'boundaries' has such a negative wrap most of the time. My "beef" with it, so to speak, is that there are soooooooo many commenting on this subject matter as if people are intentionally going out of their way to hurt, harm and cross boundaries. I truly d...on't believe that is the case! Most people have so much going on in their world they aren't even aware if they have crossed a line or upset you in some way. A piece of uncovering and living your authentic self is establishing your set of values and codes of conduct so YOU firstly know where your own boundaries lie. THEN, the beauty of knowing this is that you can have wonderful communication with those in your life that will strengthen bonds and understanding of expectations and standards. It's actually a way to become closer to people, not further. You also get to establish and hold in your "no". A tricky word for many people to use, especially when potentially letting others down. I feel there is a 'sweet spot' where you can honour your true inner nature as a person and still draw a line in the sand of where you're comfortable or willing to go, give, do etc. I also feel somtimes until we have our so called "boundaries" pushed we didn't even know we had or needed a certain boundary. Therefore that's a great life lesson to learn! Finally, you are only ever an honest, open, loving conversation away from re-establishing any boundaries with anyone in your life. Nothing is set in stone, you can articulate yourself and your needs in a kind way to change anything required. Funnily enough it will probably bring you closer together. I'd love to hear from you on this. Comment or dm your thoughts. #boundaries #beingclosetopeople #honouryourtruenature #sayno #sayyes #explore #nothingissetinstone #relationships

04.01.2022 Going Live in 1 hour -Join me https://us02web.zoom.us//register/WN_hLuKRnD-TMWaSEi9eHiXsA

02.01.2022 Some days it can all feel really heavy, really hard, overly emotional or like it's never going to end. Today I want to remind you of two things. 1. Even if you feel alone, please remember you aren't. 2. This too shall pass. Sounds simple right?... It's also hard to believe those things when everything is piling on top of you in every way imaginable. Where you are at now won't last forever. No matter what you are facing and how "messed up" you or your life feels, remember, you deserve love, care and support. This chapter of your story isn't your entire book. If you would like some support come and join me for my free online workshop next week. 'The Foundations of Trauma Recovery'.

02.01.2022 There is no such thing as "the perfect time". I don't believe things can happen at the "wrong time" or in "perfect timing", because if things were meant to happen any other way, then they would have! So...... Where are you placing pressure on yourself? You can be so busy working, planning, on the go, making things happen, being ready for this mystical "future". Yet, all we really have is here and now. Are you living your authentic life, being your true self, or are you just planning for it, waiting to start "one day"? Comment in or dm your answers for this one. #nosuchthingasperfecttiming #hereandnow #pressure #whatareyouwaitingfor

02.01.2022 Life is happening right now, this is it! There is no "right time" for anything. Everything in life happens to us at the perfect time, otherwise things would have happened differently, at a different time! Are you giving yourself permission to live the life you want, being your true self, or are you just planning for it?... Now, I'm not saying there is anything wrong with planning, far from it. Planning, goals, creating etc. is a fundamental aspect of living your authentic self and the ideal life you desire. BUT!!!... There is a point where you can be constantly working to get to this magical place of "being ready". Being ready to be your true self, to start that relationship, to have that career etc. But.... This is it. Life is happening right now. Don't keep putting it off. Please. Remember each day is a blessing. We are here to live, not just to plan to live "one day". Please embrace today, embrace yourself, embrace those around you and feel the gratitude for what you have NOW as well as where you want to go. If this resonates with you and you want to discover more about your authentic self, I have a free article download for you. Use it as a self check in for common signs and symptoms your body and headspace can display when you feel lost with your path and true inner self.

01.01.2022 As adults we still need nurturing both from self and from others. I want to point out there seems to be a bad wrap about needing others for love, connection, support, nurturing, and care. I'm calling bullshit on that being a bad thing!... We as human beings need each other, we are tribal creatures, we were not designed to live our lives solely on our own. Yes, when you become too dependent on others, that's a problem. But it's also equally a problem when you become so independent you don't need anyone either. I believe both extreme ends of the spectrum are protection mechanisms. I'm not saying that's a bad thing either. It's definitely something to be curious about and explore within yourself if either of those feel true for you right now though. Besides needing a balance of self care as well as allowing others to care for you, there is that inner child aspect to connect to here as well. Your little self lives on within you with all that you do. They too need comfort, love, care and nurturing. How do you nurture both your adult self and your inner child? How do you allow those close to you to nurture your adult self and your inner child? Comment or dm your answers. #nurture #adultself #innerchild #yourtrueself #allofthepieces #howdoyouselfcare #doyouletotherscareforyoutoo

01.01.2022 When faced with life's difficulties you can feel so very alone. I know for me when I was at my lowest, only a few years ago, I legitimately thought nobody would even notice if I wasn't here anymore. I completely understand the depths and darkness that can creep into your headspace when you feel utterly alone, not supported, not understood and unsure what to do and where to go. I want today to be your reminder that you are important and you matter!... You are not alone. There are people who genuinely want to see you not only overcome, but to be the full, incredible expression of your real, authentic self too. If you would like some support, information and guidance on how to come back to your true self come join me on a free online workshop tomorrow.
