Nurture & Thrive
Blog
Welcome to My Blog
Writing has always been my space to pause, reflect and reconnect — a place where thoughts take shape and experience finds meaning. Although finding time to write can be a challenge, I believe it’s vital to make space for what fuels us creatively and emotionally. For me, writing is both grounding and energising — a practice of self-care, curiosity and connection.
Here, I share reflections on wellbeing, self-awareness, education, and personal growth — often inspired by my work with students, teachers, parents and clients. Each person I meet offers new insights and perspectives, reminding me how much we can learn from one another. My posts often grow from those moments of shared understanding — real stories that spark deeper thought, compassion, and change.
You’ll also find pieces drawn from my studies, workshops, and lifelong fascination with learning and human psychology. Occasionally, I write poetry too — another way I give voice to ideas and emotions that don’t fit neatly into prose.
Writing regularly helps me stay mindful, inspired, and connected — and I hope reading these posts offers the same for you. My aim is to create a space for reflection and discovery, where words can comfort, challenge, and uplift in equal measure.
So, make yourself comfortable, take a moment to browse, and see what resonates.
If something you read sparks a thought, eases a worry, or simply makes you smile — then the writing has done its job.
Happy reading, and thank you for being here.
Returning to Running at 47: Slow, Steady Steps
30th November 2025
Running again at 47 isn’t about speed. It’s about reclaiming freedom, resilience, and wellbeing. As I navigate the challenges of midlife and motherhood, the rhythm of my feet, the sunrise over the sea, and a well-curated playlist keep me moving forward, one step at a time.
Safe spaces, simplicity, sanctuary and stillness
3rd November 2022
Are we consciously making time for ourselves?
Resting rather than doing. Not 'watching the TV, nodding off' type of resting, but calm, purposefully quiet stillness?
Over-stimultion and exhaustion erodes our mental health. How can we instigate and incorporate some balance back into our lives?
