Tonight we danced...
Tonight I joined a dance class... Tonight we danced the Salsa. For years I've been wanting to try dancing. I see other people dancing and wish I could do the same. I love dancing, it feels so good when I dance. I would say I'm more of a freestyle dancer, nothing fancy at all, but trying out actual dance lessons, where there are real steps and counting haha...thats the challenging part for me. I nearly didn't go. I was talking myself out of it all day. My mum even told me I sh

"I need you to see how incredible you look" She said...
It’s Summer time, which means hot days and the least amount of clothing possible. It also means catching up with family & friends at the beach, with the least amount of clothing possible to save yourself from becoming a hot sweaty mess. A couple of weeks ago I received a message from my best friend Lisa saying “I’m going to send a pic to you as I need you to see how incredible you look” Next message included this photo of me. I’m the first one to admit, I have freaken amazing

SAYING WHAT YOU REALLY WANT ISN’T ALWAYS EASY.
Just this week, there was something I felt strongly about, and something I felt was right for myself. But it meant someone else not getting exactly what they may want. I was holding back, I was feeling tight in my chest. I could feel deep down what it was I really wanted and I just needed to have a conversation. But I was finding it challenging to voice it, All because I didn’t want the other person to get upset. I was worried about their reaction and feelings. It took giving

Who Are You?
YOU ARE YOU! If you could focus just on YOU And take everything else away…pop it to the side for a moment. Being a Mum, Being a partner, Being a sister, daughter, friend… When you take all that out of the equation for a moment And all that is left standing there is you… Then who are you??? Wholeheartedly, Who are you? So many of us are attached to others or are constantly looking for others to make us feel complete. Whether it’s through friendships, a relationship, or family.

I'm not the same person...
I’m always looking to go deeper into finding out more about who I am. Something I fought with for so long, Because I just didn’t want to see and feel the hard side of things, Holding my mask up to my face and showing that everything was ok, That I was tickidy boo, When really it wasn’t. I also fought it for so long and didn’t share anything, Because of what people would think. Yet what I’ve found is that many people are wanting to go deeper, And so I share incase someone nee
