And the day came when the risk to remain tight in the bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.  ~ Anais Nin When I lived in France on the Riviera it was often said ‘We’re living the dream people’. Which in all honesty we were. Days were spent working alongside friends who became family, lounging at the…

In Gabby Bernstein’s workshop a few weeks ago she made the following comment ‘the presence of fear is when we are relying on our own strength’. This statement has been huge for me. Whenever I get a trigger of anxiety and fear i.e. I start worrying about something in the upcoming future based on something from my past, I return to this…

It’s a funny thing when a loved one gets diagnosed with cancer. Well, not funny, but it’s a rather strange experience. There’s a lot of waiting. A lot of uncertainty. A lot of phone calls. And a heap of fear.  I saw Gabby Bernstein speak a few weekends ago. In the audience there was a woman who had been diagnosed…

  So one thing I harp on about, a lot, is that we’re vibrational beings. Meaning we’re made up of energy, lots of it. And this energy of ours vibrates at certain frequencies. And it’s these frequencies which are influenced by the thoughts we think, the foods we eat, the situations we put ourselves in. Some things raise our vibration,…

As the year draws to a close it’s tempting to get caught up in ‘what have I really achieved this year?’ It’s easy for the comparison to kick in. Facebook and Instagram are great tools for this. And yes yes, you’ve probably heard that when the need to compare kicks in, we should reframe it by understanding, deep down we…

I went to Meredith Music Festival over the weekend. It was one of the best festivals I’ve been to. One stage, no stalls selling unnecessary stuff, good people, all with the same intention – to have a good time and to have a boogie. Honestly, doing this, under the trees, under the night sky – it brings me bucket loads…

It’s not easy when our external world is the exact opposite of what we want. It’s hard to maintain faith, a commitment to our dreams and desires when it feels like all our prayers are going unanswered. I’ve worked with loads of clients over the years who have wanted boyfriends, babies and new jobs. And at the immediate time it feels…

There was a time when dining alone, checking into a hostel alone, wandering the streets alone made me feel awfully uncomfortable. Now (thankfully) there is a sense of total empowerment that comes with being ok to be alone. To feel confident and secure within this vulnerability. For me, this ok-ness creates space for me to observe and absorb. Observe. Absorb….

Berlin you stole my heart and opened it up and you’ve returned it in a better state.  As with everything there is a vibrational pull. To people. To situations. To places. For me, as I know for many of you, Berlin has a pull which is nothing short of magnetic, electric, powerful. And when it pulls you in, it holds…

‘If there’s one thing I’ve learnt about you over the years, if you say you’re going to do something, you do it’.   I was chuffed. Totally totally chuffed. For me, there is something so sexy, so brilliant, about people taking action, following through on stuff, honouring their word. So to have this comment directed at me, well, I was a…
