Journaling is a beautiful, and ridiculously cheap way of processing challenges and traumas, and simply making sense of life. I consider journaling like emptying out the mind-trash that drains our energy, keeps us in an anxious state and stops us from being able to sleep at night. Because that’s essentially what it is. You get a pen and blank journa…

At some point in life, there comes a time when we feel the need to discover our purpose. And at this time, we may start to ask ourselves deep questions like: What am I here for? What is the meaning of life? How do I be true to who I am? And in these questions lies the answer… I am here to be me. I am here to get to know myself, and express myself, …

We all like to feel comfy, right? It can give us a sense of safety and predictability. But what happens if the place we feel comfy, isn’t serving us? What if that comfortable feeling we get from doing the same things we’ve always done, is actually holding us back? Getting in the way of our dreams. Halting our growth. And in doing so, minimising our…

Did you know that prior to menopause a woman’s womb cleanses itself once a month? You may know this as a woman’s ‘period’. Problem is, most of us ladies have learnt to adopt habits and behaviours that get in the way of this all-important ‘womb cleanse’. And when a womb doesn’t get the chance to cleanse itself regularly, we create a breeding ground …

Being vulnerable, for most of us, is scary. It can quite literally petrify the knickers off us, for fear of being attacked or ridiculed. But the truth is, without being vulnerable, we limit the depth of our relationships. Our relationship with others, as well as our relationship with ourself. Being willing to sit with ourself and love ourself in ou…

OK, so I have a confession to make: I am a total romantic. I am in love with love stories. Real life love stories.

But let’s just say by the time I hit 30, I wasn’t having much luck with men. In fact, after dating non…
