You are not defined by your struggles
Maybe it feels at times that life is trying to break you and that you’re falling apart.
Every crack, every fracture to your heart, your soul and spirit is not a sign of weakness; it’s evidence of your resilience to grow.Healing isn’t about returning to the person you were before; it’s about who you are becoming in the shedding and unlearning.
You are not defined by your struggles but by how you rise from them.Each challenge you face offers a chance to discover new strengths within yourself.
Perhaps we are never broken but our true authentic self reveals itself. We are dynamic souls, we aren’t meant to be static.
Healing allows us to shed old layers, letting go of what no longer serves and making space for new growth and transformation.
As you navigate this path, remember that it’s okay to feel vulnerable and to ask for help when you need it. Surround yourself with those who uplift you and remind you of your worth. Self compassion is a must — it’s a natural part of the journey to have ups and downs.
Trust in your journey, and know that healing is a beautiful process that leads to a brighter future. Keep moving forward, and let your spirit shine even brighter through the cracks 🌟

Here’s to the unknown
When you stand at the edge of the unknown, you’re standing at the brink of possibilities. Anything and everything could happen. Each step into unfamiliar territory is a chance to expand, to stretch beyond what you thought you were capable of.
It’s in these moments of uncertainty that you discover the depth of your resilience, the courage anchored within you and the power of your potential. The unknown invites you to explore unchartered parts of yourself, the parts that have been waiting for an opportunity to emerge, to shine in ways you never imagined.
So when you stand at the edge of the unknown, let it be a place of wonder rather than worry. Here’s to the unknown.
So how do you deal with the unknown?
The first step is acknowledging that it’s okay to feel uneasy, to feel fear or hesitation when facing uncertainty.
These emotions are natural, but they don’t have to dictate your actions. Instead of resisting the unknown, lean in — to embrace it as part of your journey.
Start with reframing uncertainty—not as something to be feared, but as a space where possibilities live. The fertile void. The magical in between.
It’s where your next adventure begins, where growth, transformation, and new opportunities await.
When you accept that you don’t need all the answers right away, you give yourself permission to explore without the pressure of perfection.
After all, they call it a leap of faith for a reason 🦋
If you’re looking for support and guidance with your next chapter and step in life, for landing on what’s next — I’d love to help. As a life coach I offer 1:1 coaching and human design readings 🧡 -
October… The light after the storm
October…
It’s the light after the storm. The rebirth. What’s fallen apart is coming together, piece by piece. The chaos has subsided, life is becoming more clear.
You stand stronger, wiser, more attuned to your heart’s desires. The cracks that once seemed to break you are now the places where the light floods in, illuminating the path ahead.
What was once uncertain is now unfolding with grace. Every scar tells a story of strength, every setback a lesson in trust.
You no longer fear the unknown, because you’ve realised that the unknown is where transformation happens. What once felt like an end is now a beginning.
You are the phoenix rising from the ashes, the ocean after the storm. Each step forward is a testament to your resilience, to your ability to rebuild not just what was lost, but something even more magnificent.
You’ve outgrown the past. Now, you rise into a version of yourself that feels more real, more true. The storm was never meant to break you, it was meant to set you free.
After a tough month of navigating challenges, emotions running high and a month perhaps that felt like there was so much weight on your shoulders — now comes a shift.
The storm has passed, and in its wake, you are the light. There’s hope and new beginnings in the air. You’ve made it through the difficult days that tested your spirit and stretched your resilience, and now, the universe is offering you a chance to exhale.
The struggles of late have shaped you, refining your strength and deepening your connection to yourself.
You’ve felt the heaviness, the uncertainty, but now you get to rise with a softness and grace that only comes from facing life’s storms. Your intuition is sharper, your heart more open. This is your reminder that the universe always has a plan, even when it doesn’t make sense.
Trust that this month brings new energy, a fresh start. It’s your time to embrace the unfolding, to step into the version of yourself you’ve been growing into.
Let this be the month where you honour your self and needs, nurture your soul — to new beginnings 🦋

There’s something bigger planned for you
Maybe life has something bigger planned for you, and that’s why things don’t unfold the way you thought they would or had hoped.
Sometimes, what you think is best for you may not align with the deeper potential you hold. The universe has a way of steering you toward experiences and opportunities that match your true alignment, even if they don’t fit within the framework of your original plans.
It’s in those moments of uncertainty and redirection that life often reveals something greater, something you couldn’t have imagined but are exactly what you need for your growth.
It doesn’t mean that it’s easy, because honestly, dealing with the unexpected can be really tough. When life takes a turn that you didn’t anticipate, it’s natural to feel disappointed, frustrated, or even heartbroken.
Letting go of what you thought would happen and embracing the unknown is a process that requires courage and faith. It’s hard to surrender when you’ve put so much time, energy, and hope into a particular outcome, only to have things go in a completely different direction. That’s the reality—sometimes it’s painful, and sometimes it feels unfair.
But even in those difficult moments, there’s an opportunity for growth. When you face the discomfort of uncertainty, you’re invited to build resilience, trust, and patience. It’s a chance to deepen your connection with yourself and the universe, to lean into the idea that there’s a larger force at play. It’s in those hard, messy moments that you often discover your strength and capacity to adapt.
The path might not be easy, but every challenge you face equips you with the tools you need to navigate future obstacles. I believe in you beautiful soul, you’ve got this!

The sun still rises
Maintaining hope during difficult times doesn’t mean pretending everything is fine when it isn’t. It means acknowledging the pain and feelings while still choosing to believe in a better future.
Hope fuels resilience, helping you bounce back from setbacks and build your inner strength. Each challenge faced is a testament to your ability to persevere, even when the odds seem stacked against you. In the midst of a tough season, it’s important to remind yourself that these moments won’t last forever.
Challenges are temporary, even if they feel overwhelming in the present. Just as the sun rises after the darkest night, so too will you find light after periods of turbulence and uncertainty.
Every person, no matter how successful, wealthy, or seemingly happy, faces moments of difficulty.
It’s easy to look at others and assume their lives are free from hardship, but beneath the surface, everyone experiences their own struggles.
We often compare our worst moments to someone else’s best, but this comparison is neither fair nor accurate.
The truth is… life’s challenges are universal. They are part of being human. In a way this can be comforting to know.
What matters most is not avoiding difficulty, pain or hardship, but how you choose to respond to it.
One choice and aspect is to hold onto hope, there is healing and joy to come. What’s important is to have support and find aligned ways of healing and moving forward for you. You don’t have to do this alone and you aren’t meant to ❤️🩹 -
To be human…
To be human is to feel and flow with life – to experience the full spectrum of emotions that surge and retreat, much like the ocean’s tides.
We are made to move through these feelings, not avoid them. To be human is to honour the vastness of our emotional landscape, just as we honour the ocean’s endless horizon.
There is beauty in both the storms and the still waters, in the moments of intensity and quiet lulls.
There is beauty in feeling. There is beauty in healing.
Feeling and healing create a delicate, dynamic dance. One cannot exist without the other; it is through feeling that we begin to heal, and through healing that we deepen our capacity to feel.
As we navigate this continuous cycle, we become more compassionate toward ourselves, understanding that both the pain and the joy of life are necessary for our evolution.
There is beauty in this process, as there is pain — in the way we learn to trust ourselves, lean into our emotions, and believe in our own ability to heal.
Each moment of feeling and healing brings us closer to a fuller, more authentic expression of who we are meant to be.
It guides us closer to our truth and aligning to become our
most aligned and authentic self. -
In the midst of darkness…
In the midst of darkness, we often find the strength we never knew we had.
In the midst of darkness, the power of resilience shines brightest.
In the midst of darkness, we discover the depths of our inner courage.
In the midst of darkness, every step forward is a victory worth celebrating.
In the midst of darkness, the support of others can illuminate our way forward.
In the midst of darkness, resilience is born from the ashes of our struggles.
In the midst of darkness, the strength of our spirit shines through the cracks.
In the midst of darkness, we awaken to the power of gratitude, even for the smallest blessings.
In the midst of darkness, the seeds of wisdom are planted, waiting to grow when the light returns.The darkness forces us to confront what we might normally avoid, asking us to dig deeper into ourselves, into the clarity and reality of what is going on.
In these moments, we come face-to-face with our everything: vulnerabilities, insecurities, pain, shadows and fears, yet through that truth, we begin to understand ourselves more fully.
There is a certain rawness to navigating dark times that strips away pretense, allowing us to see our lives, the people we surround ourselves with, values, and choices with greater clarity.
In the end, the darkness is a part of life’s ebb and flow. In those moments of struggle, we are shaped, refined, and prepared for the next chapter.
The light that eventually breaks through is brighter for the darkness we’ve endured. So, in the midst of darkness, hold fast to hope, for it is not the absence of light, but the place where light is born anew.
The light is always there in the darkest of times, sometimes we need a reminder. From my heart and soul to yours, this is your reminder 🌟 you are reading this for a reason 🙏🏽 -
There is wisdom in the heaviness
Life can feel unbearably heavy, but it’s in these moments you tap into a strength beyond your own.
You’re not meant to carry everything by yourself. The universe is always supporting you, even when it feels like it’s working against you.
There is wisdom in the heaviness, in the emotions that feel like they might break you. Sometimes you can’t solve your overwhelm – sometimes life demands you to feel it, let it move through you, and trust that it will shift when it’s ready.
Life can be unbearably heavy, but that weight isn’t permanent. The heaviness will lift, and when it does, you’ll see just how strong you’ve become.
How resilient you truly are.

Eclipses are powerful moments of transformation—times when the universe forces us to confront imbalances. In this Pisces eclipse, feelings of overwhelm, confusion, or even a deep sense of release may rise to the surface. It’s a time of emotional cleansing, where old patterns, especially in relationships and self-identity, may be washed away.
Pisces, being the final sign of the zodiac, symbolises the end of a cycle. This is a moment to release and navigate everything that’s been weighing on your soul, to trust in new beginnings that are unfolding. It’s a time to allow yourself to feel deeply and intuitively, to let emotions flow without restriction.
It’s easy to get lost in the confusion or heaviness that Pisces energy can bring, but this moment is about surrender. Feel the emotions that come up, knowing that they are here to guide you through this transition. As old patterns and energies dissolve, trust that what is emerging will be more aligned with your highest self.
The last time we had eclipses of this flavour was between 2015 and 2017 — take a moment to reflect and see what was happening in your life then. Particularly around 16 September 2016. What are you releasing and letting go of?

Have the faith to surrender
In the hardest of times, I may have the faith to surrender. To release the grip, the plan and fear.
May I let go of what I cannot change, and instead keep my heart open to embrace the unknown. May I trust that there is wisdom in the unfolding and unlearning, even when it all feels unclear.
When life’s waves crash relentlessly over me, may I have the strength to pause and simply breathe. To feel the rise and fall of my chest as a reminder that I am still here.
I am capable of moving through the storm. That I am not defined by the turbulence, but by the quiet power within me.
This is your sign. To hold on. That everything is going to be okay.
In the moments of doubt, may you remember the light that still flickers within you, always.
Even when the darkness seems to take over or seem a lot, may you remember the light always and the flames of hope, faith and optimism.
Your soul is resilient and has weathered so many storms.
Give yourself permission to rest, to seek support, to be kind, loving and compassionate with yourself.
I believe in you 🧡 you’ve got this 🕯️
