• Good Hands

  I think about you and the sides of my eyes crinkle as I smile,Your name flashes up on my phone and instantly my heart rate increases. I am in good hands, Steady and safe,I don’t know how to explain it, but I feel it in my gut,Be it the ways in which you give me…

• My Irrational Thoughts

  I’ve begun to recognize a pattern within myself, and despite being able to know that it’s not stemming from actual reality, what I have found is that’s it’s harder and harder for me to stop my mind from spiraling. May your choices reflect your hopes and not your fears. Nelson Mandela Typically speaking, I am…

• Overcompensating As A Mother…

  With this year’s Mother’s Day freshly behind us, it got me thinking about my role as a mother and the ways in which I do not see the weight of the task ahead of me, and the ways in which I feel I am lacking. This week on the blog, I share the ways in…

• Sweater

  I found your sweater, Casually draped over the chair,Its lilac colour instantly catching me eye,Met with an equal amount of disappointment for you that you had mistakenly left it behind,But also with joy, because I knew I would slip it on,I dive my face into the fabric and take in your scent,Your body was up…

• Glass Heart

  I have a gift for you, I have given it much thought,To find a way to show to you,Just how much I feel about you,This gift isn’t one you can find in a store,Yet it took me some time to gather and collect,Parts of it, dented and possibly bruised,I am handing over my glass heart,Trying…

• The Ways In Which I Shrunk Myself

  In life, we will get knocks, we will be challenged and we will inevitably grow and should learn from all of them, but sometimes someone says something or we make certain adjustments and it lingers. Recently, I have been thinking about the ways in which it became the norm for me to reduce myself and…

• Meaningless Sorry

  You come here, palm outstretched,I admit, I have been waiting for this moment and, Now that it’s here, it is nothing like I imagined, As I look around to be sure I didn’t make it up, I realise just how empty your sorry is, A true apology requires a change in behaviour, Done in person,…

• Why I Have Difficulty Being Loved

  Don’t get me wrong, I am a hopeless romantic, but I would never tell you that! I love a good love story like the next person, I just sometimes wonder if I am anxiously dead on the inside. So this week on the blog, I direct the reasons why I believe I have difficulties allowing…

• Releasing Fear

  Our inner voice can be such a Debbie downer and too often we allow it to be so loud, it stops us from taking a leap or making a change. Fear, keeps us stagnant, stuck and at the end of the day- do you really want to be stuck? This week on the blog, I…

• Do I Even Like Me?

  

  Taking baths and doing face masks, literally don’t mean a thing in our self-care journeys if we’re doing absolutely nothing to work on loving ourselves. I mean deeply love ourselves. That candle or glass of wine will make you feel nice in the short term, but deep down what work are you actively chiselling away…
