Rock bottom is a good place to be.  Do you ever get the feeling that you’re ‘not quite’ riding the wave that is your life? As though you’re struggling just below the water, gasping for air, unable to just pull yourself up and catch that powerful force that’s going to carry you to shore? 2016 has (so far) felt entirely...

Are you missing the signs that your life, your body, your surroundings, your circumstances, are ALWAYS giving you?  We are all constantly being given intuitive hunches. They’re always there, telling us what serves us (and what doesn’t), what’s in our highest good (and what’s not), and what to do next, in this puzzle that is life. And when we ignore...

When things go awry in life, it can be easy to feel like we’ve wasted something. Time, money, resources, love … it can be a bit like, what was it all for?  Then there’s that old saying, everything happens for a reason … which can be infuriating (even though, personally, I believe it). Often, it’s not until the blessing of hindsight...

I observe a lot of people wishing they had something else in life. Feeling stuck in their own circumstances, and feeling as though life could have ‘panned out’ better for them. And a perspective that I would love to offer, is this: It’s available to you, too.  Don’t get stuck in the thought process of ‘I could never do that’....

A simple fact of life: There is ALWAYS going to be things to worry about.  Always, always, always. This reality dawned on me (yet again) the other day, as I was sitting there worrying about something (as we do). My whole life, I’ve been a serial worrier. I’m much better than I used to be … but, still. Sometimes, it...

Trust. Faith. Belief in something higher + greater than my mere self.  These are qualities I’ve had to deeply cultivate, in order to create (and keep creating), a life that I love – a life that truly reflects ME, and my authentic desires. Without a doubt, ALL the big decisions I’ve made in my life to date, have been based...

It breaks my heart when I witness someone who is quite clearly trapped in a life that no longer fits them. (Or, perhaps never fitted them). The pain is palpable. The energy of a person who doesn’t love their life is potent. Why are so many of us ignoring our innate knowing of who we are and what we’d love to...

I know a lot of women with a tendency to ‘hyper-organisation’ – myself included. I’ve always been a list-maker, mostly for the pure satisfaction that I get when I cross things off the list. (In fact, I love this feeling so much, that if I perform a task that wasn’t on the list, I’ll add it on, just to be...

Years ago, I watched the inspiring Stanford commencement speech spoken by Steve Jobs. Jobs gave this speech after going into remission from his pancreatic cancer, after believing he was going to die. Personally, I believe people who have ‘nearly died’ can offer great wisdom to those of us who can have the tendency to float through life believing we’re invincible...

Two years into my naturopathy course, I decided I’d had enough. I couldn’t do this studying gig anymore. I’d already done a bachelor of science and had been going for nearly six years. I was disheartened, and, well, over it! So I withdrew from my course. Completely, with no intention of ever going back. Then I worked insanely for one...
