I didn’t go in to work today. I had every intention of going and I had started getting ready, lunch boxes were made and my mum had already arrived at my house. I was running late but I was going to get there. Then I sat there and thought to myself I am exhausted, GiaContinue reading “Be kind to yourself”

Feeling ‘Unaligned’
I’ve always struggled with my current employment because I feel like it’s not aligned with my life or who I am. Is it convenient? Yes. Is it flexible? Yes. Can I work it part time? Yes. …and it pays reasonably well for an administration position. I received my 7 year service award via skype aContinue reading “Feeling ‘Unaligned’”
Battle of the ego
Today got me real good. I was triggered. I was angry. I vented. I still had a positive day, but this morning I had one of those moments where I was disappointed in the world we live in and wondering what happened along the way where people stopped being ‘kind‘. Fridays are one of myContinue reading “Battle of the ego”
Full Moon Circle
Wow! What an experience that was. Last night (being Thursday October 1st) I attended my first Full Moon Circle with the beautiful Daniella Elias: https://www.daniellaelias.com/ This is something I have never done before.

Our new ‘normal’
We’re adjusting to a new normal at the minute. My husband has finally gotten a job offer after 6 very long months of being out of work. In the meantime, there has only been a few days here or there but nothing longer than 2 weeks. His mental health has taken a beating and hisContinue reading “Our new ‘normal’”
The ‘Bergen’
Have you ever been in the room when someone is talking about you? They might be talking in code but you know you’re the topic of the conversation… It has to be one of the most soul crushing things for a sensitive person. Yes. That’s me. I was having a reasonable day last week. IfContinue reading “The ‘Bergen’”
Card Making
I have been making cards from as young as I was able to do craft! It has always been something I’ve loved to do. One of my first primary school business ventures was making cards and selling them to my Uncle (bless him) to hand out to family members each month. I look back nowContinue reading “Card Making”

You will need: Skewers (long skewers around 30cm) Source from your local supermarket or local party shop. Glue gun Hot glue gun sticksContinue reading “Let’s make a RAINBOW!”
Believe in yourself
Are you someone who constantly encourages others to follow their dreams yet you fail to follow the same advice you offer someone else? I am guilty of this. So guilty. Even now. I have friends who offer me the same advice that I’ve given them and I think why don’t I believe in myself likeContinue reading “Believe in yourself”
Imperfectly me
Have you ever had this incessant nagging on your heart to find your purpose? I have always placed way more importance on finding a ‘career’, which in significance seems so small compared to the bigger picture. Children change you, life changes you, your experiences change you and we are always growing and evolving (…and thenContinue reading “Imperfectly me”
