#25 SLOW DOWN: living with your moon seasons
This episode is meant to be a gentle reminder for you to lean deeply into your moons this year. To honor your menstrual cycles as much as the seasons outside.
To know when to rest and when to play.
To lean into the seasons with grace and awareness.
Every season of life and every season in nature has its magic. Every month the moon grows fuller and hangs heavy in the air, before it slowly disappears once more. Everything in nature is cyclical, and we are nature, and we are cyclical beings, too. To live linear lives is constantly creating resistance against ease and flow.
So embrace living with your moon seasons.

#24 SOFTEN: your invitation to winter
In the last episode of 2023 I want to send you off with an invitation to deeply rest. To hibernate. To take a true winter. What would this season be like for you if you allowed yourself to winter? A time of prioritizing rest, to shed what is dead and to prepare our hearts for the new growth. A time to release your jaw, release the grip and trust that stillness is nothing to fear. Nothing to feel guilty of. Amongst reminders of how to slow down during Christmas I’m sharing ways to reflect on what was and to invite what is to come in the New Year ahead.
#23 SLOW DOWN: Christmas time hygge
In todays episode I share a bit about what I do in my house to infuse my days with Christmas time hygge. A beautiful reminder to relish the little moments, versus waiting for the big magic of the season to knock on your doorstep and then feeling disappointment when it never arrives. so grab a cup of something warm and comforting and get cozy with me.
#12 SOFTEN: Influence and Inspiration
“Who would I be as a mother, if I had never opened an Instagram account”
A question that crosses my mind every once in a while and something I felt was worthy softening into a bit.
In this episode I want to explore Inspiration and being inspired versus Influence and being influenced.
What is the difference between the two? Is influence a bad thing? How can I limit the negative effects of social media? What is positive influence?
The episode is an open exploration of all this and more, because life is really too precious to spend it trying to live someone else's life.
