Hi lovely Reader, I keep having different versions of the same conversation lately: The world is a lot. I can’t watch the news. They started a war without a plan. How do we respond to the Epstein files. How did we get here. What can we do about it alllllll? And then I’ll catch a daffodil swaying in the wind, or drink a delicious coffee, or get the sweetest mother’s day card 2 days early because my son can’t sleep for excitement at me seeing it, or nearly wet myself laughing in a yoga class,...

Hello Reader, I don't know about you but January is absolutely kicking my ass this year. It's always a busy time for me, but this year I thought I'd got a handle on it. (I had not) Because sometimes life just happens. You can't control it and you have to ride with it, rather than rail against it. For me, that has meant reprioritising so I can pick up the work of one of my team members while they are off dealing with a bereavement. And honestly, I'm really glad I'm able to do that, to give...

Hey Reader. Holy guacamole, it's December my friend and according to a quick calculation I just did there are 26 days left in 2025. People keep asking me if I'm running Design Your Year again. The answer to this is a big fat YES! This intention setting to the community is the backbone to my year, and I know it's the same for many of you. So, just to reassure that the reason I haven't sent you any comms about it is not because it's not happening. But because I've been spending way too long on...

Hey Reader. Wow, the last few months have been a lot for me. Last night I gathered with my lovely intention setting community and there was a whole lot going on for people, so I’m guessing you might feel the same. I’ve been taking some time out to rest and process after a huge life change (more on this at some future point). But then I realised I haven't been in touch for ages. When I don't email this Wild & Free community for a long time it can turn into this really big thing. I feel like my...

Heyooo Reader, This week's email is about what happens when you learn to better manage your inner critic. This time last week, I was on the way to host the networking event I run once a month for women in business. It was fabulous, full of uplifting, supportive, awesome connections - as it always is. But, that's not what this email is about. Picture this: I'm standing there, on the very busy overground train, drinking my tea and reading my book, surrounded by humans. The train stops, and more...

Hey friend, In my job I spend a lot of time connecting with people, but often through a screen. I'm sure it's the same for many of you These days I find that when I'm called to show up in person I often don't look forward to it. The voices that go through my brain tell me things like: "it's a lot of time wasted traveling" "think of all the tasks you could tick off your to do list" (things like writing this newsletter at 10am when I normally do rather than at 6.22pm before I sign off from the...

Hey friend, It's sunny in the UK. That's all anyone has been talking about this week. That and absolute s*it show going on in global politics. How? Why? Can we turn it all off and back on again? How do you get some space from it all Reader? Mine is definitely through movement in nature. Today (I'm doing my work from the trail, including writing this email to youuuuu. Team photo. I cannot get Pingu to stay still 😂 And by work...I mean the big picture stuff. One of my things this year is to do...

Wonderful Reader, I've had some stuff going on which means I haven't been emailing much, or been very 'out there on socials'. To stay ok I've had to reel things in, focus my energy. I'm sure you've had times like this and I know you'll understand. But I have been beavering away on things that bring me joy. As you probably already know one of these is the Wild & Free Retreat. It's always the most nourishing, soulful, uplifting and joyful weekend of my whole year. This year we are in Devon for...
