I don’t know how to love, I understand the theory, but I don’t have the skills to practice it. Partially because I have a lot of unresolved trauma that is hindering my ability to be vulnerable, and partially because I have never seen it role modelled accurately. I recognise now that being married is a…

Earlier this year I set myself the intention word of purposeful. I was hoping this intention word would help me make more deliberate decisions around how I spent my time, energy and focus this year. What I wasn’t expecting is to be hit with burnout and loneliness; feelings of exhaustion that created apathy in me.…
