Hi love

I consider myself a pretty healthy person
But the last six months have brought me to my knees in ways I didn’t expect

My health asked me to slow down
To stop
To actually listen

And in the stillness
some big things came to light

Little moments where I ignored my gut
Brushed past my intuition
Overrode what my body was trying to tell me
in favour of what I thought was the right way to move forward

And as someone who’s been in and out of therapy for the last four or five years
this time has felt different

I’d worked with a male therapist for a long time
He was brilliant
But I found myself craving something else
Something softer
Deeper
More feminine

So I started working with a female therapist
And in one of the most challenging seasons for my body
she helped me come back to it

Back to the place I’d been avoiding
Back to the emotions I’d put on a shelf
Back to the inner knowing I’d accidentally muted

It’s been transformational
Not because she gave me answers
but because she helped me get quiet enough to hear my own

And here’s what I know to be true

You don’t need therapy to get there
You don’t need a coach or a course or a ten-step plan
You need space
Stillness
Safety in your own system

Because your body already knows
Your gut already knows
You just have to get quiet enough to hear it

My co-creativity is back
My energy is back
And I’ve been pouring it into my vision
Rooted in truth
Led by the body
Not the algorithm

I’ll be sharing more of that process in future newsletters
because if you’re anything like me
you’ve probably had moments of overriding your knowing too

So let me ask you this…

Where might you be running with your mind — instead of listening to your gut?

It’s a hard one to catch
But if you’re moving a million miles an hour
you won’t hear the whisper
until it becomes a shout

With love
