Beautiful Beliefs 2 : I believe that…
…business is a creative act. Well, certainly the kind of business I’m interested in, anyway! I launched my online business approximately 18 months ago from a desire to do things my way. I had been working within the academic system for a number of years, not really making any progress and surrounded by those who were being swamped with admin rather than getting to do the job they actually were there to do – teaching & researching. It dawned on me that I was in the wrong place, and that I wasn’t going to find what I was looking for within the walls of the university. Over the next 6…

Introducing Haumea
I am so incredibly happy to be introducing you to… Haumea!! To give birth is, perhaps, the most sacred act we can perform in this lifetime. Bringing into the world new life is truly a gift of the goddess. And yet, we so often perceive of this new life in very narrow terms. In this story of the divine midwife, I invite you to connect with all the different ways you participate in the act of birthing, and that you honour all the varied forms this new life can take. Haumea teaches us that the mother archetype is never solely the province of those culture labels ‘mothers’. (To read more…

Beautiful Beliefs 1: I believe that…
…magic happens in circles of women. I’ve seen this many times. Women arrive in the circle, some comfortable in their own skin, eager to turn up, tune in, connect. Others nervous, tugging on sleeves, eyes lowered. Some bouncing with energy, and others world-weary, heart-sore. Some fully present, others distracted.

Beautiful Beliefs
Our beliefs define who we are and how we choose to show up in the world. When we get really clear on what it is that we believe in, we create containers for our free and full expression. I want to invite you to embrace your beliefs – to explore them, state them, share them. And so I’ve created Beautiful Beliefs – a new group writing project that I just know you’re going to love! Every Wednesday, I will be sharing one of my beliefs and I would love for you to join me in sharing one of yours. At the end of my Beautiful Beliefs post, you will be…

Introducing Isis
It is my immense pleasure to introduce you to… Isis!! Sometimes the person we thought we were, that identity we’ve been cultivating for years, falls apart. Perhaps it’s the breakdown of a relationship. Maybe it’s the loss of a loved one. It could even be a perceived failure, a missed opportunity, a letting go of what could have been. Whatever the cause, grief strikes us down, not just for the relationship, the business, the home etc. that we believe we have lost, but grief for the person we were when we had it. At times like this we need a space – a space where we can feel held while…
