Today, I quit my soccer team of 8 years. Sexism and constant criticism shunted me over the edge. Neville metaphorically flipped the bird at one of my teammates and announced (not for the first time) “Yeah, nah.” A few weeks ago, I’d found myself standing there mid...
I had some major relationship decisions to make and was spending hours ruminating & flipping between different decisions. I already had considerable knowledge of mindfulness & was using Headspace, but working 1:1 with Andrea has been invaluable. Couldn’t...
During last year’s 4 month lockdown I realised there were a couple of friends in my life who I felt really drained by after we caught up. I would avoid catching up with them (individually) until I had loads of spare energy, so I wouldn’t be depleted when my reserves...
A few weeks ago Bloody Good Bloke sent me a video he’d made that made me burst into tears. The video was of his Nona and Dida — his Croatian grandparents — some of the most beautiful humans I’ve ever encountered. BGB was in Sydney visiting his family. [📷 Photo...

Since moving to a new state, I’ve been meeting a few new people — and drop me in chocky and roll me in coconut*, it’s brought up a few insecurities. Insecurities that Neville had only partially managed to bury before being caught in the act. The pickle is, I’ve always...
On Sunday, Bloody Good Bloke brought up something about my behaviour earlier that day (see below for details!) that made me furious at him. The kind of furious that I save up specially for things that I know are true. The things that I reeeeaally bloody wish weren’t...
Today I got sucked into an hour-long Instagram scroll and came out feeling a little sick. I came out of my daze triggered by all the inauthenticity, triggered by thinking how much I suck at social media as a business owner who should care more about consistently...
In highschool there was a beautiful girl who I didn’t know well who always seemed to be the star of the show. I felt she was cocky, and I resented her for the ease with which she seemed to travel through life. I got better grades than her, and worked my ass off at all...
