How to spring clean your beauty bag
Spring is here, ladies, and whilst we often do a spring clean of our wardrobe and garage, we often forget about our makeup drawer. When was the last time you went through your blushes, lipsticks and eyeliners and tossed anything you haven’t worn in years or that you purchased back in the 90s? It’s amazing […]
Staying positive during uncertain times
2020 has been a year full of unexpected change, worldwide turmoil and unprecedented uncertainty. For me it’s been a time of major transition, upheaval and personal changes. But as the famous quote says, “New beginnings are often disguised as painful endings”, and so I am looking at all this uncertainty as an opportunity to refresh, […]
Gratitude – day #5
Today I am grateful for… The power of manifestation – it really works people! Homemade soup on chilly days. My health – slowly starting to feel like myself again after weeks of battling a brutal cough/cold that has kept me homebound and awake at night. Thank god we live in a country with access to […]
Gratitude – day #4
Today I am grateful for… New Moon energies. Coffee dates with old friends. Although 20+ years have passed and between us we have been through divorce, loss of a parent, international relocations, job shifts and countless breakups, the friendship is still there.

Be kind to yourself
During this time of major shifts and changes in the world it is important to remember some simple yet often easily overlooked things. Breathe. Slow down. Trust the process. Exercise, not just for your body but more importantly for your mind. Be kind to yourself. Speaking personally, this year so far has brought a lot […]
Gratitude – day #2
Today I am grateful for… Fresh air and vitamin D. Girly chats over coffee. Living in Adelaide. Spending the weekend with a best friend. Keeping her company (and sane!) whilst her hubby was away and she was home with the kids. Movies, conversations over wine and unspoken support. Always. The Lion King. Makes me cry […]
Gratitude – day #1
Today I am grateful for… Sunshine. A fun morning work out – despite the glutes burning from days of leg work! Morning coffee and scrambled eggs. Vegemite on sourdough, avo/feta smash and Mayans MC. Time. No schedule to follow. A fun day spent with my niece. The kind of fun that can’t be planned, that’s […]
