I don’t know what I’m doing

I’m taking a break today from sharing my top ten series. While I’m so excited to share that series and all the huge changes I’ve made in my life this year, doing absolutely anything in a sequential, pre-determined manner just kills my creativity. I commit to these things in my head, and then the day […]

Giving myself a fighting chance

You guys, choosing a topic to write about today was hard. I know the top ten biggest changes I’ve made in my life, but I have no idea how to rank them in ascending order. I’ve already written about water (“How to Change Your Life, sent 12th September), personal care (“Be a sexy, smelly animal”, […]

Fasting – punishment or reward

I hope that you’ve been following along. I’ve been writing about the top ten changes I’ve made in my life that have contributed to my incredible transformation. My first, “How to Change Your Life,” was about water. My second was titled “Be a sexy, smelly animal” and was about personal care. This post, the third […]

I’ve just started writing a ten-part series on the ten most profound changes I’ve made in my life that have contributed to my health and happiness this year. Last week, I wrote about water with the subject line “How to change your life”. This is part two. I must admit, I don’t have a clever, […]

How to change your life

2024 has been a year of profound change. It came after a particularly challenging time, call it a Covid hangover, or delayed-onset pandemic fear. Call it a midlife crisis or burnout. It was probably a combination of all those things.  Between 2022 and the start of 2024, I fell pregnant with my second baby, walked […]

My rant

It’s Monday today. Every Monday morning, I have the kids so that Emmanuel can work. At around 1 PM, we switch over, and I have the chance to move the needle on any projects, catch up on admin, or take some self-care.  My Mondays are often alike. I usually have a slow start and try […]

Do what feels good

This morning, I was driving to the gym listening to one of my recent favourite songs, “In Dreams”, and the lyrics moved me even more than usual, this verse bringing me to tears: Beloved child  You are the light of the world Beloved child Go out, spread light to the world Be strong, be kind, […]

Self love, weight loss and manifesting

Three years ago, in 2021, I purchased a mini-course about manifesting. It was called the “21-Day Change-One-Thing Adventure”, and it took me through the fundamentals of manifesting and creating intentional change in my life.  The course was framed as the foundation of manifesting, with a rinse-and-repeat formula that participants could use for anything and everything.

Am I a big hot mess?

A couple of Fridays ago, I had a bad day. I woke up very tired for the second day in a row. I felt low on energy and had a lot to do, including some voiceover work for Dreamboat that I’d already put off several times. I gauged the situation and decided (incorrectly) that I […]
