I had a realisation the other day that struck like a lightning bolt, hot and furious, like only a moment of clarity and revelation could. The profundity of this truth boiled down to this: the truth will set you free. So simple, so cliche, yet so transformative. But this transformation will elude so many ofContinue reading “The path to freedom is not about chasing”

Are we listening?
Is maturing making decisions that a version of you 10 years down the road will benefit from and not just the version of you standing today? If it is, then somewhere along the way, to my awe and surprise, I have matured! Most of us believe making better choices for our future includes things likeContinue reading “Are we listening?”
Your season of success comes after the discomfort
As I huffed and puffed during my workout today, there was one thought that came to me that gave me just enough energy to push through. It was this: A season of success is always preceded by a season of discomfort, of growth, of stretching yourself beyond your current limits, of healing even deeper thanContinue reading “Your season of success comes after the discomfort”
I have been working on myself
Working and loving on myself is one of the hardest things I have embarked on but I had a moment in the past handful of weeks that let me know the fruits of my labour are not only happening but so damn worth it. For the first time, I was able to re-write a patternContinue reading “I have been working on myself”
All it takes is putting one foot in front of the other
In case you feel like you’re the only one struggling, messy, lonely or sad right now – I need you to know that you are not alone. I’ve been there too, I am there too, and I will be there too again.

The greatest quesion I’ve asked myself
One of the greatest questions I’ve asked myself, that has allowed me to get to the core of my being, has been: Why? Why am I here?Why do I do what I do?Why do I care?Why am I so triggered?Why am I tolerating this? Cue my existential dread and the mental breakdown that only comesContinue reading “The greatest quesion I’ve asked myself”
I am still finding my footing
It is part of human folly, or at least has been part of my own folly, to expect results overnight even though we’ve heard the cliche over and over that things take time. I reflected on how the first week of 2022 has gone and I know I felt like I was struggling, feeling aContinue reading “I am still finding my footing”
Letting the journey strengthen my heart, instead of weaken it
The most difficult thing I’ve had to do, as I’ve striven towards my dreams and goals, has actually had nothing directly to do with the goals themselves and everything to do with building myself. If you would have told a younger bright eyed and bushy tailed version of me at the start of this journeyContinue reading “Letting the journey strengthen my heart, instead of weaken it”
I feel like…
If there is anything I have been realising and making note of lately its that our feelings, although valid, are completely unnecessary in those moments when we could truly make change in our lives. What I’ve come to know about myself, is that so often I have stalled, procrastinated, or completely failed to meet myContinue reading “I feel like…”
A beautiful existence is one we create for ourselves
Being able and willing to spend time alone with myself and truly go through the process of developing self knowledge has allowed me to grow my conviction with one fact: This life is completely my own, and I never need anyone’s approval or permission for how I live it. Now that doesn’t mean I nowContinue reading “A beautiful existence is one we create for ourselves”
