Postcards from 2452.
Running on coffee, puppy cuddles, sandy feet and more pastries than I care to admit.
She’s been a wild ride, but we’re almost at the finish line and ready to root into this next season with everything we have.

It might seem weird, but one of the surest ways to bring more zesty aliveness to your life is to increase your willingness to f*ck up.

Because truth is, when you quit organising your life around avoiding mistakes, you’re more open to the intuitive nudges and “what if…?” shower downloads that have you running round the house n**e as you try to write them down, stat.

And yet, so many of us have become terrified of experimenting out loud.

So instead, we overthink.
We wait till we’re certain.
We make the safer choice.
We edit ourselves before anyone else gets the chance to.

And slowly, without really noticing, life gets a little more ho-hum…

This is a big (actually huge) part of the work I do in mentorship.

Not teaching you how to get everything right but helping you become more deeply self-led so you can hear your ‘hell yeses!’, trust your own judgement, experiment without needing everyone to understand, and keep moving, even when you don’t have the whole thing figured out. Yum!

Because self-leadership isn’t knowing exactly what to do, it’s knowing you can trust yourself to figure it out.

And honestly, that’s where things start getting juicy, on the zesty side of life where you meet yourself with ‘I might choose wrong, and that’s okay’…

I wrote a whole caption about this but I bored the s**t out of myself reading it, so… here’s the abridged version..

The other day I annoyed someone. I didn’t do anything other than indirectly call them out on poor communication but next time we spoke her tone screamed ‘I’m pi**ed, but I have to be polite..’
My inner people pleaser? Not happy.

‘I thought I was over this s**t’ I whine to Mark as I realise I’m on the cusp of an old school overthink spiral c/o my jacked up nervous system.

The words above are me reminding myself that we don’t roll this way anymore.

Maybe they’ll serve you too…

—————————
Truth is, being human = caring what people think and we truly do ourselves a disservice trying to heal ourselves out of an evolutionary kink that keeps us safe and in the tribe.

Discernment stops this *care* from becoming unhealthy or making us act like sacrificial lambs as we bypass our very real (valid) feelings.

Know and trust you’ve done nothing wrong?

Ask: Does their opinion of me really matter?
Are they worth the energy?

I know it sounds harsh, but it’s true.

And a huge blind spot for people pleasers is that we rarely ask the question, do I even like this person?
Am I giving my power away to someone who (a) doesn’t deserve it, or (b) has zero consequence in my life.

Because geez what I wouldn’t give to get the time and energy back I spent over the years ruminating over the opinions of people who weren’t even my people.

Discernment doesn’t make you an ar****le, it makes you a sovereign leader and we must stop mistaking assertiveness with rudeness.

Ok, bye.

My body woke me at 3.30 this morning. I’m not sure if it was my cantankerous head cold that just won’t quite budge, my hormones, or my brain concocting today’s to-do list in prep for our pending move but either way, a sleep in was no longer on the agenda.

So I got up. Did my morning ablutions, tongue scrape, teeth clean, hair brush and then shuffled into the kitchen for my warm lemon water and collagen spiked cacao. I lit incense, journaled and sat to watch the foggy dawn break through the tree tops.

I live for these moments.
And on the pages of my journal this morning I wrote a word multiple times that surprised me…

Solidifying.

You see the past few years have felt like an energetic cluster f**k a lot of the time. My bodies felt like it’s been hijacked as it finds a new midlife rhythm, the unfortunate reality of multiple injuries (some of which I’m still recovering) and living in a place that hasn’t been fulfilling to my soul.

AND yet…

I still wrote the word solidifying. Twice in fact.

And it’s because amongst this energetic circus I’ve also been solidifying who I want to be and how I want life to feel moving forward.

I’ve been slowly realigning my business to meet me in the season I’m in (while also supporting the most lush clients I could ever hope for).

I’ve been loosening my grip on needing to show up a certain way, do things right or have all the answers.

I’ve been building SOLID foundations that support my values (health, honesty, creativity, curiosity) and have made forgiving myself for my short comings in any and all ways an Olympic sport.

I’ve been creating a life that meets me everyday exactly where I am, zero apology.

I’ve been soft launching my dreams with every tiny decisions I’ve made.

Every moment of grace.
Every moment of grief as I bade farewell to 2 fur babies and the woman I once was, all in the span of 3 years.

It’s all of this has led me to this moment.
Soft launching a dream that not only feels easeful, but inevitable.

A life that feels so plump with potential that when I wake at 3.30am, I’m excited to get up and see what the day brings.

And if that takes a cluster f**k (or five), I’ll take them any-day.

See you soonx
