Over the years, my list of group chats has grown wildly and I’ll admit, I love creating them. I love naming them and choosing the perfect… Continue reading You’re allowed to change…

Ageless
It’s been a FUNtastic birthday week at the wise old age of 42. Weirdly, I’ve being saying I’m 42 for the last 8 months. There’s just something about this age I have been ‘ready’ for. Over the last 8 months, I’ve also been asking a question that is having a profound impact on my partner… Continue reading Ageless
Keeping Promises
Walking to the beach on Easter morning was one of total focus. I was focused on the Rosella’s singing their own Easter tune at 7:30am, and my mind was focused on 3 things and 3 things only. I didn’t know what those 3 things were just yet, but all I knew was, I had promised… Continue reading Keeping Promises
Keep the Air Con on
This cover photo is what I’m staring at as I type out this piece, which arrived right after eating a paddle pop with the air con on! Firstly- I’ll translate. For those of you not from the land of slag, Australia, air con is short for air conditioner and in Victoria, it’s a rare occasion… Continue reading Keep the Air Con on
Tail Wind
Those annual leave Christmas vibes kicked in as soon as I closed my laptop on Friday afternoon. I got my active wear on, jumped on my bike and rode straight into a sunny head wind, guiding me to my family for fish n chips and drinks in the park. My playlist was inspired by the… Continue reading Tail Wind
Sleeping with a smile
You know those moments in life that are so beautiful you kind of can’t take it in, in the moment? It’s more an 'after' the moment experience that allows you to fully digest it. Well, recently I had a bunch of those moments for 7 days straight. Last Sunday, at roughly 7:48am, I boarded a… Continue reading Sleeping with a smile
Inside Smile
A few years back, during the lockdown era, a friend and I would ride our bikes past people running on the path, smiling as big as we could, to see if we could turn their runners frown upside down. Our strategy was simple, silly and cute. Smile as big as you can and see who… Continue reading Inside Smile
Keep It Simple
I don’t know about you, but as I type this blog piece into my phone, I can’t feel the tips of my fingers. I could barely order my coffee because my words were frozen from the walk over. I also ordered a chocolate croissant and I’m pretty sure I’m mostly gluten free. ‘I’m sorry for… Continue reading Keep It Simple
Tiny Tweaks
Moment. It was Saturday late afternoon and I was sitting on my nieces bean bag with their family dog resting on my foot. Whilst drinking a cup of peppermint tea, I was flicking through a wonderful coffee table book which I forgot I bought my sis for Christmas. First name Laura, last name Dory! What… Continue reading Tiny Tweaks
Doggo diaries
I’ve fallen in love 4 times in the last 8 months, it’s been a busy kinda year! It all started out when I relocated to a small bayside town in the outer surburbs of Melbourne. I’d cook dinner, stroll to a picnic table that show cased the best sunset in the west, and enjoy my… Continue reading Doggo diaries
