Know your value even if the world forgets
I hope this Super Moon is a transformational one! Today is a Super Full moon (meaning the moon is closer to our planet so more potent), and is said to be a time of celebration, action and abundance in love and money… so let’s celebrate! Congratulations and Celebrations🌟: I am celebrating finishing a […]
Embracing Change & Creating Magic
September has been a challenging and intense month of integration for me… as well as experiencing some profound reflections on change, creativity, and the courage to keep growing. I’ve been thinking about how we navigate transformation: both the messy, uncomfortable bits and the breakthroughs that follow. When Change Feels Like Grief Do you relate […]
Zombie chickens, laughter and tears… and the nervous system
It’s been a while because life has been full: most recently with 9 immense days completely offline, the final performances of the Rainbow Butterfly for 2026 (at Between The Tides Festival which was an absolute JOY!), working on movement direction/choreography for A World Without Death‘s World Premiere taking place across Bradford next weekend (5-7 Sept), […]
I Am Not Perfect and Neither Are You…
Because here’s the truth: I am not perfect, and neither are you… And that’s exactly what makes us both beautiful!
JOY assisted our wedding…
3: That’s the magic number🎵 On the way home at the end of our (third and final!) wedding day, Ahmad said, “In Creole, we say we “assisted” a wedding rather than attended one-and I really felt that today!”… and in that moment I realised that the true abundance was in the JOY of community. Our […]

The 1 question I ask to create in spite of it all…

Metamorphosis… who else resonates?
I am wondering if maybe we are all going through a chrysalis moment… the messy middle… a planetary shift right now… hopefully some change for the better 💕 🌍 The wonderful Sarah Lotus Garrett (of The Mixed Bloom Room) wrote a post that resonated so much that it helped me put some of the feels […]
Finding Your Way Back to Heart in Difficult Times
Today, I want to share something deeply personal with you: about one of the biggest pendulum swings I have had since 2017! And how I am finding my way back… Perhaps you’ll recognize yourself in this story, or find a light to guide you when your own path seems wobbly… When the Heart Goes Missing: […]
Getting to the Heart of Connection through awareness (Part 2)
Last week, whilst on our Okan tour, I attended a talk: “What it Takes to Heal” by Prentis Hemphill, Marai Larasi, and Farzana Khan. One of my teachers phrases, “We don’t need to heal because we are already whole, complete and fixed exactly as we are”… kept popping up during the session… and I am […]
