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

Let’s not beat around the proverbial bush, it IS easier to just-keep-going.

To keep doing things the way you have been.
To stay moving at the rhythm and pace you have been.
It makes sense.
It feels safe.
Yeah, you might feel like you’re on a conveyer belt on an old episode of The Jetsons, but heck…isn’t that just life these days?….

Truth is, it kind of is life these days, it’s sped up to level that your nervous system just isn’t built for, 24/7 stimuli that has you popping dopamine like it’s Petz.

AND

It doesn’t have to feel like that.

AND

It does require you to be diligent, devoted to your own cadence, values and energy otherwise you will find yourself pilled up like yesterday’s dirty washing.

It’s like the frog experiment thing.
You know where they put a frog in a pot and they turned the heat up so slowly it didn’t realise it was slowly being cooked? Yep, modern day life can kind of be like that, slowly upping the ante until you wake up one day and realise ‘crap.. how did I get here?’.

Great news is, it’s actually not that hard to break the spell.

The key is to start listening.
To start saying yes to your body when it needs a rest.
To prioritise that break in your schedule and guard it like it’s a new born lion cub.
To remind yourself that you matter just as much as a clean kitchen.
To put down the ‘I’m available’ sign and say yes to that massage you’ve been meaning to get for months, today.

It’s the small stuff that matters and makes the difference.

Because while it might be feel easier, safer and take less effort to just ride the slip stream of progress, it’s a trick. So take this as a click of the fingers, waking you from your slumber.

If you’re constantly thinking to yourself ‘I’m so tired’ OR ‘I wish I could show up for myself more’ that’s a sign you’re ready for different….that it’s not easier, not really. Not in the long run and the only reason it feels safer is because it’s what you’re used it.

If you want things to change you have to change them.

(I know…annoying right..)

And when I say life changing I’m not talking ‘oh that’d be nice to have’ I’m talking l i f e c h a n g i n g, as in life before v life after kind of vibes…

And the stuff that gets you there?
THE stuff your ego gets all up in your grill about.
The stuff that makes your belly churn, your palms sweat, your mind spiral with what ifs and who do I think I am on repeat.

The invisible stuff.

The stuff that no-one sees.
The stuff you can’t tick off any to-do list or calendar.

The stuff that’s easily down-played.
The stuff you forget about when you try to track how you’re progressing or verify if it’s all been worth it.

That’s the stuff that gets you “there”.

I’ve been thinking a lot about the work I do lately, reflecting on the way I support the phenomenon women who journey with me and what it is that helps create the shifts that occur.

The lightness in their shoulders.
The unclenching of their fists.
The exhale.
The sparkle that returns to their eyes.

It isn’t me of course.
Yes I’m there as a guide, but it’s always them. Always.

The thing, the catalyst that really makes the difference?
It’s having someone, me, there to hold them in their discomfort WHILE they do the work.

I remind them they’re doing better than their ego is telling them.
I reflect back to them the invisible leaps and bounds they are taking to build strong, solid and lasting foundations for themselves and their lives moving forward.
I help them call BS to the stories and conditioning that make them question if they’re doing enough as they create new ways of showing up for themselves.

Ways that often ask them to stretch outside of the boxes that’ve been built around them.

You see it’s not five point checklists that create real change, that allows you to do the scary bold stuff, it’s the intangible invisible choices you make.

Even when it’s inconvenient.
Even when it might not make sense.
Even when it might rock the boat or risk you being misunderstood.

That’s the life changing stuff.
The stuff that makes you excited to be ALIVE.

That’s the medicine.
And letting yourself be supported while you do it?
Well that’s the spoonful of sugar that helps it go down…

Having less F’s to give has truly been a blessing in disguise.

Yes, my ego has a little tantrum that’d give any under-slept two year old a run for their money at times but instead of spiralling or trying to justify myself, I move on…I’ve simply got no time or energy for it.

It’s really easy to say ‘I want to slow down, be more present, enjoy life more’…, it’s a very different thing do actually do it.

As soft-powered women we need this.
Like, medicinally.
Like, without it we wither and dry out.

And to DO IT you must be willing to unsubscribe from the narrative telling you that taking your time, resting or prioritising your own needs is wrong, indulgent or a fast track to failure.

Because I see the opposite.
Everyday.
Amazing women I have the pleasure of supporting who are doing MORE by actually doing less.

Less of the things they think they should be.
Less of the things they’ve outgrown.
Less of the things that drain their energy and make life feel heavy and hard.

More of the things that turn them on.
More of the things that nourish their bodies and make showing up for themselves not only easier, but fun again.

More of the things that make their dream life possible.

These women aren’t working harder, they’re not forcing.
They’re making decisions and moving in ways that feel good to them instead of fighting against their instincts.

They trust it’s enough.

It’s safe.

And it takes practice.

It happens over time.
By you gradually listening, trusting and re-writing the A-hole narrative in your head telling you that you “should” be doing more, better, faster, bigger.

There’s no getting round it.

If you want life to feel slower, more spacious, more sacred, more nourishing, you’ve got to be willing to quit the things that keep moving you away from that reality.

It will feel stretchy.
You will feel like you’re going the wrong way on a one way street some days.
You will feel like you’re letting people down.

You’re not.
And,
It won’t last.

Got less f**ks to give? Great!
Take this as the magical neon sign it is and go Marie condo the absolute s**t out of your life.

Need a wing woman? You know where to find me. X

This statement was such a ‘holy s**t’ wake up call for me. I think it was when I was doing my holistic counselling training and we were doing work around the inner coach v the inner critic. I’ll never forget the visualisation activity we did where we were taken through a process of meeting them both in our minds eye.

It was life changing, just like this sentence.
And I want you to know when I say life changing I never say it as a throw away comment, it is literal. As in a before and after this moment kind of vibe that changed how I engaged and interpreted the voices in my head either talking smack about me or cheering me on.

Back then I had a lot of the former.
My worth based more on how others perceived and received me and I spent a lot of time in my head ruminating on how I could be or do better.

Yep it was as exhausting as it sounds.
Maybe you can resonate…

Being able to separate yourself from your thoughts is one of the most powerful things you can do. To call ‘bulls**t’ when your critic or ego are triggered and challenging you to run and hide instead of standing in your truth and letting your authentic self be enough.

This is the reason I do the work I do.
I know what it’s like to feel unsafe in your own truth.
To question if you’re a good person, simply because someone wasn’t welcoming or gave you a weird vibe.
To believe all the noise in your head telling you not to do something because ‘what will they think…’

Self leadership isn’t just about how you show up in life, what you do, it’s how you engage and interact with yourself. How accepting and loving you can be to the person who matters more than anyone else. The one whose opinion and guidance carries more weight than any stranger on the internet, you.

Feeling stuck or not sure where to start on your self leadership journey, start here.
Start calling BS on the voice in your head telling you ‘no, you can’t do it that way, or be like that’…
Start speaking to and about yourself like you matter.

Because you do.

And when you start *trusting* that, it IS life changing.
Literally.

Your ability to show up and do-the-thing is not the problem, the things you’re trying to force yourself to do are.

Because the truth is, you’re going to reach a point (maybe you’re there already) where you simply get fed up with trying to force everything. To do what’s “right”. To push through. To keep up. To follow the rules.

To keep everyone happy.

The most powerful thing that happens when women work with me isn’t that we miraculously have them ticking off their to-do list and caring for themselves better (although this does happen), it’s that they start being inspired by life again.

They start showing up, without having to try.

And it’s not through working harder, moving faster, or being more productive, in fact these women are already some of the highest achieving women I know..

The REAL reason they feel more motivated, have more energy and clarity is because they start showing up in a way that works for their energy and the season of life they’re in.

They break up with the idea that their way isn’t good enough, fast enough or big enough and instead lead themselves from their own internal compass, unapologetically.

And the cool thing is, with the right support it’s no where near as hard as it feels.

Word on the street has you believe there’s one path to success, health and happiness, that if you tick these boxes and follow these protocols then you’ve got it made, but real life doesn’t work that way and there’s nothing more suffocating to your confidence and self belief than trying to fit into a schedule or routine that doesn’t suit you (even if it used to).

Your ability to show up isn’t the problem, trying to do things that don’t feel good anymore is.

Want a life that makes you feel full fed and nourished?
A life you’re excited to get out of bed for?

Start feeding yourself with things that make your insides squeal with delight.

Flip a middle finger to that voice in your head saying ‘you should be doing…’ and spend your precious energy breathing life back into what really matters, to you.

That’s the secret.
That’s the real work.
And that’s what we do, together.
