I am so thankful for all of the mess and chaos of my upbringing, I was raised to believe I could achieve absolutely anything I put my mind to… It’s how I rallied 4196 signatures to get Hanson to come to Tasmania when I was the ripe old age of 10, it’s how in 1999 … Continue reading I did it…

It’s not always easy
In fact, most of the time it has been hard, really really hard. But that’s kind of the point, growth doesn’t come from a place of comfort. It’s why in May when Lily said to me she wanted to run, I said yes. Old me would have been an unequivocal no because I couldn’t think … Continue reading It’s not always easy
Brain Power 🧠🏃♀️
I recall reading something along the lines of “whether you think you can or you think you can’t you're right”…. This has never rung true for me more than today.

I have an incredible doctor, physio, chiro and massage therapist, between them we have always been able to manage the pain … Continue reading Frustration & all the feels
The first 66 Days
66 days is the average time to form a habit. Or in my case, change how I see myself… Every hour on the hour (while awake) for the past 66 days I have had my watch tap my wrist and I have then picked up my (emotional support) water bottle and initially read the words … Continue reading The first 66 Days
Anything for 60 seconds!
This week I did something I have considered and wanted to do many times before and I’ve let self doubt and my confidence stop me. Lily asked me to join her in doing the Couch to 5k training program (C25k for short) and at 6am Monday morning to say the least! So off we went, … Continue reading Anything for 60 seconds!
Just one of those days
There is beauty in the suffering but I tell you what, some days are just heavy. It’s been 57 days since I sat down and wrote my goals, 56 since I started doing daily check ins with my accountability friend & in that time I have faced days of stress, worry, high emotion and grief. … Continue reading Just one of those days
