Father’s Day isn’t an easy day for everyone…

For some, it’s a day of celebration. For others, it can bring memories, sadness, longing and grief.

Thinking of everyone who finds today difficult. 💙

Sometimes we think losing someone means losing the connection we shared with them. Yes, we lose the physical connection, though we can learn to develop our spiritual connection with them…✨

Love doesn’t simply disappear when someone leaves this world. They are still in our memories, our choices, our hearts, and in the people we became because we loved them. Their spirit remains beside us... a quiet presence walking with us through every day…

Grief changes the way we experience love, but it doesn’t take love away… ❤️

Spring is here… 🌸

And sometimes, the most unexpected things can bring a beautiful memory back to us...

This first photo was taken in Paris in 2008.... my late husband, bending down to smell a rose. ❤️

Yesterday, while Misty at WhiteElm and I were offering a free community grief support session, Misty took us through an aromatherapy journey. We each blindly chose an essential oil and, without looking, were invited to simply smell it. I lifted mine to my nose and instantly knew… it was Rose.
One of my favourites!

As I continued to breathe in the scent, I imagined myself walking through a rose garden. And then, suddenly, a memory came to me. Well… more like a photograph.

This photograph in Paris in 2008, with my late husband smelling a rose. 🌹

It was one of those beautiful moments when you realise how much our senses can connect us to the people, places and memories we carry within us.

And today, on the first day of spring, I wanted to share it with you...

Spring can bring so many different feelings when we're grieving. While the world around us seems to be waking up, blooming and beginning again, we may be carrying a very different feeling inside.

We might notice the absence of someone we love, we might miss the moments we would have shared with them, or we might find unexpected comfort in the beauty around us.

Maybe that's what makes spring so special… that even in grief, there can still be moments of beauty, connection and love.

Sometimes a flower, sometimes a scent, or sometimes a memory that arrives when we least expect it. And sometimes, for just a moment, it can feel like they're right there beside us. 🤍

As spring arrives, take a moment to wander amongst the flowers, breathe in their scent, take in the beauty, and see what memories find you... ✨️

Sending love to all my fellow grievers on National Grief Awareness Day… ❤️

Grief can look and feel so different for each of us. Some days we might feel strong, and other days we are just trying to get through the day.

May you be gentle with yourself today, and always… 🤍

🩵 RISE THROUGH GRIEF RETREAT | JUNE 2027
💫 REGISTRATIONS & BOOKINGS ARE NOW OPEN

Luxury Grief Informed Retreat in the Whitsundays 🌴

I’m very intentional about the places I choose for my Rise Through Grief Retreats, and this is one I’ve kept close for a little while. I’m so excited that I can finally share it with you.

Our next Rise Through Grief Retreat will be held 17-21 June 2027 at Yangaro, near Airlie Beach in the beautiful Whitsundays... a very special place that is incredibly dear to my heart. 🤍

Yangaro Resort is just beautiful. It’s surrounded by the turquoise waters of the Coral Sea, mountains, nature and the most incredible views. It’s one of those places where you can slow down, breathe, and just take it all in.

This is a luxury grief retreat, because when you’re grieving, you deserve to be cared for too. You deserve beautiful surroundings, nourishing food, time to rest, and the chance to step away from everyday life and focus on yourself for a while. And you deserve 5-star luxury in every way, from the stunning setting and beautiful facilities to the little details that make you feel nourished and cared for.

You’re worthy of this…❤️

This is also a 100% grief-informed retreat, created specifically for people navigating life after the loss of a loved one. It’s a safe and supportive space to explore your grief, connect with what you’re experiencing and gently work through the many layers of grief.

There will be gentle yoga, meditation, art therapy, massage therapy, thermal therapy, nature, reflection and connection, along with plenty of time to relax, swim, enjoy beautiful food, take in the surroundings and simply be. I have created this space where you can come exactly as you are.

I’m genuinely so looking forward to sharing this very special place with you and creating a beautiful retreat experience together.

Registrations and bookings are now open.
Different room options available, limited spots.
Deposits and flexible payment plans are available.

One of my favourite things to do in the lead up to our Rise Through Grief Retreats is prepare these little goodie boxes for our retreat attendees... 💫

Each box is filled with heart-centred gifts, thoughtfully chosen to offer a little comfort, nourishment and something special to take home.

I’m not going to reveal everything that’s inside…
But here’s a little sneak peek at one of the treats waiting for our guests... Loco Love 😉

I absolutely love offering these goodie boxes to our attendees. There’s so much love that goes into preparing every little detail of our retreats, and these boxes are one of my favourite parts.

I can’t wait for our retreat attendees to open theirs in a few weeks... ❤️

✨ EUMUNDI — BOOK SIGNING NEXT SATURDAY! ✨

If you’re heading to the Eumundi Markets next Saturday, 29 August, I would love for you to come and say hello.

I’ll be at Berkelouw Books in Eumundi from 9am–12pm, signing copies of my memoir, Love, Loss and Eternity.

I would love to meet you, have a chat, and tell you a little more about the story behind the book. And if you decide to take a copy home, I’ll personally sign it for you, and you’ll receive a special little gift from me too.

Love, Loss and Eternity is the story of losing my husband suddenly at just 41, and the grief that followed. But it’s also a story and exploration of love, connection and the many beautiful ways our loved ones can continue to be part of our lives, even when they’re no longer here physically.

It’s about the signs, the synchronicities, the dreams, the moments that feel way too meaningful to be a coincidence, and the ways I have continued to feel my husband’s presence and communication beyond his physical life.

It’s an extremely personal story that I felt called to share. It’s raw, real and honest, with heartbreaking moments, funny moments, heartwarming and unexpected moments of lightness. But ultimately, it’s a story of love, hope, and the knowing that our loved ones who have crossed over into the Afterlife still exist, they are still with us... always. 🤍

So, if you’re wandering through the Eumundi Markets next Saturday 29 August, come and find me at Berkelouw Books between 9am and 12pm.

Love, Loss and Eternity ❤️💫

Some loves become invisible, not because they have ended, but because they have moved beyond what the eyes can see... 🤍

Our loved ones are still with us. Just because we can’t see them in the physical world anymore, it doesn’t mean they have disappeared. They are still around us, still connected to us, still finding little ways to let us know they are near.

Sometimes it’s a song that comes on at exactly the right moment, a familiar scent, a dream, a feather, a butterfly, a special number, or something that could only make you think of them.

We may not be able to see them, but that doesn’t mean they are not there… 💫

Love has found a different way to be seen and felt. ✨

14/08/2026

There are so many ways our loved ones can remind us that they are still with us. ❤️

We all have our own signs... those little moments, symbols, songs, numbers, animals or unexpected encounters that carry a meaning only we understand.

One of my signs from my husband in the Afterlife is poppies.

Over the past two weeks, I’ve been receiving some incredibly strong signs and messages from him.

And then yesterday, as I walked into a shop with a friend, I was greeted by the most beautiful bunch of poppies. My lovely friend who is moving through her own grief bought them for me, knowing just how special poppies are to me and the meaning they hold.

Was it a coincidence? Perhaps some people would say so.

But when you’re grieving, you learn that sometimes it isn’t about proving where a sign came from. It’s about what it means to you. It’s about that feeling in your heart, that knowing in your soul.

For me, those poppies felt like another beautiful little sign that my husband is still with me, and that love doesn’t end when our loved ones leave their physical lives. The connection continues, the signs continue, and sometimes they arrive in the most unexpected and beautiful ways... you just have to open your heart.
