Shownotes

In this episode, I’m sharing a very honest look at what this winter was really like for me, mentally, physically and emotionally.

I talk about the season I was in, the ways I let myself retreat too far, and the moment I realised that being gentle with myself had quietly tipped into something that was no longer serving me.

I also get into the wake-up calls that pushed me to make a change, from my daughter’s birthday card to my own health, energy and habits.

This one is personal, reflective and full of small but powerful reminders that looking after yourself does not have to be extreme to matter, but it does have to be honest.

Highlights:

(05:40) - The birthday card that made me see how far I had drifted

(08:03) - Why my body felt like it had become unfamiliar territory

(11:27) - The hard truth, I was pushing myself like I was still in my twenties

(14:04) - Why doing nothing was not the kindness I thought it was

(16:23) - The small changes I’m making to feel stronger again

(21:07) - Why I’m sharing this redemption arc out loud
