Day 22 – Morning After (Day 21 completed)

Slowing things down yesterday helped take the edge off.

Today is Day 22, and I’m prioritising my sleep routine.
Protecting rest makes everything else easier.

Did you have a more relaxed day today?

Making a better food choice yesterday felt simple but effective.

Today is Day 20, and I’m doing a random act of kindness.
No posting, no credit, just doing it.

Fu*k you, that’s right, a big 🖕

The last six months have been a struggle to say the least.
The fire on South Street.
The cancer scares.
The unexplained weight loss.
The mental spiral.
The list goes on.
And you wonder why I was almost committed.

The honest truth is this, I was S**T scared.
I thought I’d lost my business.
I thought I’d lost my health.
I thought I’d lost my mind.

I was standing on the edge, watching everything I’d built feel like it was slipping through my fingers.
And that’s when it hit me.

Something had to change.
Not everything.
Not the world.
Not other people.

Just ONE thing.

And that one thing was me.

I made the change.
No one else did it for me.
No doctor.
No system.
No miracle.
ME.

I showed up when I didn’t want to.
I kept going when fear was screaming at me to stop.
I chose to fight when it would’ve been easier to fold.

This isn’t toxic positivity.
This is survival.
This is accountability.
This is what happens when you refuse to let pain write your ending.

I’m still here.
The business is still here.
The fire didn’t take me out.
Fear didn’t finish the job.

And if you’re reading this thinking “that sounds like me right now”, good.
Because if I can claw my way back from that place, so can you.

One decision.
One change.
One day at a time.

1% better.

Day 19 – Morning After (Day 18 completed)

Stretching helped keep stiffness at bay and loosen things up.

Today is Day 19, and I’m making one positive food choice.
Nothing extreme, just better.

Last weekend we spent a couple of nights at Solace by Emma, and honestly, it’s exactly what the name promises.

No signal. No noise. No pressure to be anywhere or do anything.

The space itself is dialled in perfectly. Warm, comfortable, and thoughtfully put together without feeling overdone. Everything you actually need is there, and nothing that pulls you back into the outside world. Waking up to the sound of running water, fresh air, and proper stillness hits different when your nervous system’s been running on fumes.

What really stood out is how grounding the whole experience is. You slow down without trying. You breathe deeper without thinking about it. Time stretches out in a good way. Walks, quiet moments, simple food, proper rest. It’s not about luxury in the flashy sense, it’s about feeling human again.

Solace isn’t an escape from life, it’s a reminder of how life’s meant to feel when you strip the noise away.

We left lighter, clearer, and properly recharged. And that’s not something you can fake.

Highly recommend it to anyone who genuinely needs a break, not just a weekend away.
