It's mid-2020 - and what a start of a decade.

I believe that life is always working for us and that there is a lesson in every trial and tribulation. 

The gift of the lesson is, and always will be - choosing Love. 

Love is truly the most potent and energetic creative force in the universe. 

We're either only ever motivated by Fear, or motivated by Love. 

Our children are our mirrors. If ever we...

Is your heart feeling heavy right now?

I would love to share a perspective if your heart is feeling heavy. 

It's easy to wear the burdens of the world on our shoulders - and then we may turn to guilt or shame. Guilt that we're not doing enough and want to do more; shame because we feel that there is something wrong with us not being able to "fix this". 

There may even be an experience of feeling ...

How does it feel to say these words: "I don't know!"

Does it feel disempowering? Do you feel inadequate? Do you feel somewhat silly? Or does it conjure up curiosity? And excitement?

....Or are you thinking..."Well, it depends?!"..!

What if "not knowing" is a powerful place to stand?... Pause for a second, and just sit with it!

....Imagine... the power of "Not knowing". 

One of the biggest cha...

Do you ever feel that you're holding it all together?... just. 

Maybe you're a first-time parent who was so excited about parenthood, and this gig is nothing like you expected. Your expectations of yourself are not being met. Your emotions morph from frustration, angst, fear, worry, guilt, and shame.

Or maybe you're a few years into this gig of parenthood, and it's like groundhog day. Why aren't...

"I'm so scared to have children. I feel that I'm too selfish and not ready to give up everything so I can have children. How did you do it?".

That was a real question!... 

"What makes you think that you have to give everything up?" I asked.

"Everyone around me says it's all about the children when you become a parent. They say they never have time for themselves..and I feel that they don't re...

Sunday is Mother's Day in Australia. I'm all for celebrating!

For a moment, imagine how you would feel about yourself if you celebrated yourself every day? What kind of ripple effect would that have?

Although, Mother's Day is predominantly about your partner/ spouse and children celebrating and acknowledging you. I invite you to take a moment, grab a journal and cup of tea; and with the same amoun...

Today was Avery's 4th b'day. Four years ago, Avery gave me the opportunity and gift of Motherhood.

I've had a few people in the last week share their fears on Motherhood (they aren't currently mothers). It is something they "desire" - yet "fearful" of the possibility that they may lose themself in the process. 

They asked me if I felt I had lost my identity? Or feel less of myself?

I remember the m...

How often do you check in with your partner/ spouse on whether "You're on the same team?".

It's a tough one - and when it comes to parenting, your children are the recipients of the energy exchange you have with each other.

They are watching how you love each other.
They are watching how you resolve and move through differences.
They are watching how you respect one another. 
They are also watching you...

Avery has started becoming really rigid in the last few weeks. I've been observing him.

He doesn't like getting his hands dirty - and has to wash them all the time. Everything has to be orderly and lined up.

Recently, his behaviour has also changed. Extra-agreeable and overly regulated.

It was odd to me, and I knew something was up. Preschoolers are meant to have big emotions and LOVE messy pla...

I've recently committed to a few "online retreats" and didn't anticipate the time commitment and re-evaluation in priorities that were needed. 

Always at the top of my list is "Self-care". You can't give from an empty well. You can't give from a space of being spent. 

Your level of mind; the health of your mind, body and spirit determines how you perceive challenges - and how you meet them. 

In Asi...
