She remembered who she was and the game changed
I am all about self-love and having a strong self worth, however I will always be grateful for my experience with selflessness. It was a beautiful feeling to totally sacrifice myself for my husband in his moment of need. It felt pure, real and strong. When I am feeling a little self consumed it is heartwarming …

I was never going to publish this personal poem. I wrote it yesterday and today I remembered the line “you’ve gotta feel it to heal it”. I don’t ever want to numb out pain or hide it because I think it will always come back and bite you when you don’t expect it. Being emotional …

Lets talk about love. Lately I have enjoyed discovering the complex mysteries of how the masculine and feminine energies work.

I haven't been feeling my best lately, not health wise but just mentally a little lost. Yesterday marked four years since I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. I was very fortunate to spend the day at an amazing Food Matters Live workshop. As I listened to all of my idols talk (James & Laurentine from Food Matters, …

Love - what a great word. I have to admit, sometimes I seek love outside myself. I crave to be noticed or validated but I have made a decision that, right now, this behaviour is going to stop. It has been said that "You begin by ending your search for love". So I am dismissing …

Well, here we are again - Australia Day, which for me means five years since I lay down, one last night next to my husband, before he gracefully took his last breath.
