  • LONG WEEKEND FEELS 🌿 .. no chocolate eggs could compare to this. Yesterday, @a_jaxcreative and I hopped on an early flight and darted our way from Melbourne to Sydney. ✈️ After spending the day wandering The Grounds of Alexandria, Newtown and Camperdown.. we arrived at the real destination, @hotelcollectionist. It’s been far too long since I found myself in the quaint space that is, this unique, custom design hotel. You might remember I vacated walls of a fine pastel pink, the Tavi room, for Sydney Fashion Week last year. I spoke that it felt like home. After speaking about it all year long to @a_jaxcreative, I couldn’t be more happy to have him here with me now. To share with him our new space, Rita Velour, designed by Amber Road. Stay tuned on my stories, my blog and my Instagram as I share more from this sensational, idea-sparking space. I’ve found home once again, and yet, this home feels very different. Here I don’t have a care for the time. I set up my work station on the patio, and I feel myself breathing as the sun goes down. I make tea. I make freshly brewed coffee. I make the most of happy hour. Here things feel calm. I feel re-inspired. I feel ready to indulge in this little Sydney getaway. What are your plans for Easter weekend? Where do you find yourself? If you are spending it in Melbourne, I’d make your way to @dillydalymelbourne to treat yourself to another little slice of heaven. 🤤 On the subject of aesthetically-pleasing destinations, it’s quite impossible not to mention this spot. Don’t even get me started on the spread. Here’s to relieving ourselves of all pressure, responsibility and accountability this weekend. Wherever we are, let’s indulge freely and contently instead! Happy Easter weekend everyone!
  • THE BEST GRATITUDE HACK YOU’LL HEAR TODAY 🧘🏽‍♀️ .. trust me, this ideology just gets it. Surprise, surprise — my tendency to reference 10,000 podcasts a day is about to continue. 🤦🏽‍♀️ Believe me when I say, this one is worth it. As I was working out this morning, I listened to the latest episode of The Fitness and Lifestyle podcast by @djkfitness. 👉🏻 Today’s guest was mum of 3 and creator of her own self-development program, @indiavine. It’s not remotely surprising that I was drawn to the conversation: it is, after all, centred around the power of mindset. 💪🏻 The two discuss the importance of setting the tone for each day, and of understanding the control we have over our perspective. At one stage, the conversation turns to gratitude. 🙏🏻 India said [in rough words], if I asked you to write down the things you’re grateful for right now, you’d come up with a list of things: your family, your partner, your health, etc. But what if I told you that everything NOT included on that list will be taken away from you tomorrow? How much MORE would you write down? How many more little, mundane things would you add to that list? Better yet, how many things that you view as a problem right now — like your job, your finances, or even the things that stress you out. 😰 How many of these things would become characteristically valuable, if they were at risk of being taken away? I don’t know about you, but the list in my head just expanded from 5-or-so things to, well, everything in my life. Another thing I loved about this conversation — India reminds us that the human brain is not actually wired for happiness, but for survival. The modern-day pursuit towards happiness is a pursuit.. by virtue of the fact it is not a given. It requires daily work and unwavering dedication. I LOVE uncovering truths about the mindset that improve our ability to understand and to navigate it. 💁🏽‍♀️ I also love any excuse to justify another serotonin-inducing brunch! If happiness takes a daily avo smash at @wintermalvern, then guys, I’m totally there! 🤣😉
  • TAKING A STEP BACK .. 🙏🏻 my all-telling experience with hypnotherapy. For the last few weeks, my mindset has changed immensely. And from what I can tell, this has occurred for one key reason. I’ve realised the single thing standing in the way of my current life and my ideal life.. is me. It all began with the opportunity to work with @miaozenghypnotherapy. Granted it wasn’t something I’d previously considered, the practice had me very intrigued. I had a lot of questions. Was there something significant and underlying holding me back? Had I internalised childhood experiences.. to a degree that even I wasn’t aware of? I was curious. And yet, my curiosities would not be answered by Miao. Under her guidance, rather, I’d soon hear the words come from me. There was a particular moment within the session, where Miao asked me to describe an ideal day in my life. It was eye-opening as I described a day very similar to my own everyday. Until now, I hadn’t realised how close I was. Nor how much the concept of guilt had denied me from getting any closer. It turns out that I was, as suspected, holding onto past experiences. I was also feeling guilt in their regard to this day. These experiences, so long as I held onto them, acted to reinstate false realities about myself. And I had no clue. No ability to shut them down — for I saw them just the way a child does. With unwavering faith in their validity. I’d never taken the time to reassess as an adult. Head to my IGTV to hear more about my experience, and the unprecedented lessons I learnt during my session with @miaozenghypnotherapy. For those who wish to make peace with their past, or even for those who, like myself, operate unaware that there is peace to be made, my advice would be this: don’t be afraid to explore those emotions and experiences. Sometimes we don’t wish to discover what’s residing underneath. But more often that not, we need someone to bring it to light. I’m so excited to fill the gap once occupied by guilt.. with LIFE instead. 😎 Who’s with me?!
  • CLAIMING WHAT’S OURS 👉🏻 .. What’s the line between determined and entitled? Every sentence I speak as of late, begins with “I was listening to a podcast”. 💁🏽‍♀️ At this point, I can’t even distinguish the conversations I’ve had with people versus those I’ve sat in on. I’m both excited that I’m digesting so much information, and on edge of telling myself to find a new source. Perhaps I will. But only after I start one more with the infamous words. So guys, I was listening to a podcast. Long story short, they were talking about the mindset of millennials; in particular, the way we feel entitled to certain accolades, respect and recognition in life.. far earlier than any generation before us. They talked about how we think we’re smarter. What previous generations know, we believe we can learn. We pride ourselves on this ability to adapt and to progress quickly. Call it unfortunate, but I couldn’t agree more! 🤣 I feel like I respect myself and my own worth to this world, far more than a young person might have.. even just 30 years ago. I know I’m not the only one. Maybe it’s the way technology has advanced? Maybe it’s the rise of social media? These things make us assured that we have the firmest finger on the game. A far better idea of where it’s set to go than anyone else before us. I wouldn’t argue this is a completely negative outlook. For decades, young people have pleaded for their voices to be heard. In the name of lesser experience, they’ve often been quietened. Now, we refuse to have our age thrown back at us, as if it’s our fault we haven’t lived for thirty years prior. We’ve found a way to be young AND to be valuable. And honestly, I think it’s kind of awesome. For many reasons, I don’t think I’m smarter than the generation before me. But I DO hope evolution makes me this way eventually! 😅 Isn’t that the goal, after all? What do you think? Do you reckon we’re too entitled too soon? Or simply taking the opportunity to stand for our worth? When it comes to the tofu roll at @addictfoodandcoffee, I feel utterly entitled — but I’m also certain this could be a one off. 🤣
  • BALANCE 🧘🏽‍♀️🥂 .. what does it look like for you? When I wake up a little dusty, eyes heavy and stomach askew, nothing about that feels good. 🤣 In fact, it’s on a hungover Sunday where I do find myself both craving and valuing a fresh, motivated start the most. I tend to dive into full detox mode, pulling out every stop to recover as quickly as possible. Today, that’s meant drinking a whole lot of water. 💦 It’s also meant eating a big, fulfilling breakfast, despite having ordered @lordofthefries1 at the early hours of the morning. 😅 It’s meant taking my prebiotic blend by @flourish_live_naturally and my cider detox tablets by @zhou_nutrition. I want the alcohol out of this temple ASAP. It has meant taking several showers, washing my face and brushing my teeth several hundred times. The point is, I can’t wait to feel great again. And yet, I’m not mad that I don’t feel this way right now. Why? Because to me, this is what balance looks like. It looks like getting up at 5am each week day, working hard at the gym — and in life too. It looks like caring about what I put in my body and the way that affects me. It looks like creating positive sleeping patterns; like prioritising what’s best for my health and my well-being in general. But you know what? Every now and then, balance also looks like heading out; having just the right amount of G&T and dancing the night away. Much as I’m paying for it today, my life wouldn’t be as good without these seriously liberating, structure-free and fun moments. Without them, my 5am wake-ups might even lose their spark. Balance to me comes from having a structure you love — but not being afraid every now and then, to throw it away for something else you love. That’s having a damn good time! And not worrying about the consequences of doing so. What does balance look like to you? 💁🏽‍♀️ Is it ordering a green salad with fries? Or being a productive machine throughout the week .. just to do shit-all with your Sunday?! Admit it below! ‘Tis a safe, non-judgemental space here! No matter what state you find yourself today [I am definitely less on point than I appear here], have a very happy Sunday eve!
  • HAPPINESS 🧘🏽‍♀️🤸🏻‍♀️ .. on days it feels less complicated, we should remember how we defined it. If you watched my stories yesterday, you’ll know I was in such an elated, life-loving mood. For some unknown reason, everything fell into place. Not in my life, but in my mind. For just a momentary period, I held not one doubt in relation to the way my life looked. I didn’t doubt who I was in it or where I was going. I felt this undeniable and unquestionable sense of certainty: I was happy! So, so happy! In such a euphoric state, I found myself inclined to question what I truly cared about. When I was my happiest, and when life appeared its most clear and simple.. what was it that truly mattered and equated to that state of euphoria? The next time you experience unexpected and abundant happiness, I want you to ask yourself the same questions. In this state, do you — care about your body shape? Do you care that it may be imperfect? Do you care about work stresses? Do you care that you’ve made mistakes? Do you care about negative people? Do you care about what they do? Do you care about material objects? Do you care about acquiring more? Do you care about the money in your bank? Do you care about the money that’s not? Do you care about what you don’t have? Or, do you care about what you do? In these moments, all I can possibly bear to care about.. is how bloody fortune-giving the world around me is. MY world. The one I already have! I care about people and the way I impact them. I care about spreading and radiating joy. I care about laughing and smiling. In this moment, all I really care about is making it last. My single priority is to remain in this simple state of happy and in this simple state of grateful.. forever. For the times we feel lost or for when our priorities become skewed, we should remind ourselves of this reality. The reality of what matters to us.. in our happiest state.
  • FEELING INTIMATE 💁🏽‍♀️ It’s not wrong or anti-feminist. In fact, it’s something we should embrace. When you pride yourself on being an independent, strong woman like myself, it’s easy to get confused with where to draw the line. Are you still allowed to appreciate chivalry? Are you still allowed to feel sexy? To look sexy? To embrace and even flaunt your sex? I’d argue YES! 🙏🏻 What’s the point in fighting for the rights to our own female bodies and the way they’re perceived.. if not to re-claim and to seize that ownership! To me, being a strong, independent woman INCLUDES feeling sexy and allowing myself to be intimate as I please. It means not judging myself for doing so either! Amid many political debates, and also notably, the rise of social media, I think we forget the importance of being intimate with others — and also, of embracing how it feels to be intimate ourselves. I’ve worked alongside @skyn_au and @theorycrew across several events and projects now, and I’ll always stand behind their message to #saveintimacy! Of all the many great things we’ll feel in life, feeling sexy and feeling close to someone is one of the very best. I can’t wait to use this gift pack and all it’s many goodies — the @fujifulm_au Instax camera and Twister game-board in particular — to spice up those special moments between myself and @a_jaxcreative. How do YOU keep things interesting and see that you feel sexy or intimate.. whether you’re in a relationship or single?!👇🏻 Don’t be afraid to share!
  • NON-NEGOTIABLES 🙅🏽‍♀️ What are yours? I think we all have a few sacred things that, 🅰️ we can’t function without, or 🅱️ we’ve taught ourselves to prioritise. Why? Because the risk of NOT having or doing these things comes with a nasty consequence. Or well, five. Much as they sound impossibly glamorous, as if they could only plausibly relate to meditation and biking to the park every Saturday, the truth is often far less picture-perfect. Take, ordering fries if they’re offered on the menu. 💁🏽‍♀️ Not such a great non-negotiable to uphold, but nonetheless, something I appear to have taken on. Both negative and positive in nature, here’s a few further examples. 1️⃣ MORNING COFFEE ☕️ I don’t care if doer-of-all-great-things, @badgalriri, raves about a caffeine detox, or complains about the shakes. The way my day starts, wth a warm cup of black gold, is non-negotiable. 🙌🏻 I love the taste of it, I love it’s kickstart, I love it’s culture. And as of recent, I also love @st.remio’s full-bodied blend. They’re making the concept of giving back a non-negotiable, every time we invest in their beans or coffee capsules. 👌🏼 Forcing us to consider the coffee growers behind every cup, I’m delighted to make my coffee intake truly count — for someone other than myself for once. #WeAreStRemio 2️⃣ WORKING OUT 🏋🏻‍♀️ Regular readers will know that finding time to exercise and to move my body is never a question of if — but when. If I don’t prioritise this physical and mental escape, ya girl becomes angsty, fidgety and hella frustrated. Kind of like a public nuisance. The only difference being, that @a_jaxcreative bears 90-100% of the brunt. 😂 Isn’t love just so special? 3️⃣ PEOPLE 👯‍♀️ Hanging out with friends and socialising, unless I’ve done far too much of it for one week, tends to be another big non-negotiable for me. After all, it’s so key to lifting my mood, to putting things in perspective and to seeing that I truly embrace life! What are YOUR non-negotiables?! Let’s hear your honest answers below! 🙃👇🏻
  • IT’S THE LITTLE THINGS 😇 .. that make up a positive mindset. I’ve woken up this Monday feeling super grateful. It’s been a mere two hours, and already, there are so many things making this day great. You want to hear them? 🙋🏽‍♀️ Okay, okay. Here they are! 1️⃣ DAYLIGHT SAVINGS 🌅 Thanks to this glorious concept, that I didn’t get to bed early enough last night didn’t matter! I woke up at 5am this morning, rearing to go! When I arrived at the gym and the clock was an hour out, everything made sense. 2️⃣ MORNING WALKS 🚶🏻‍♀️ Also a result of daylight savings, I’m now back to enjoying my mindful morning walks! For the past few weeks, it’s been difficult. Try being calm whilst battling the prospect that some creepy person is lurking in the dark. 😆 Now, it’s just after 6.30am. The sky is blue, the air is cool, the river is calm. The part is.. I can actually see it! 3️⃣ RUNNING PROGRESS 🏃‍♀️ I used to be someone who ran 10-12k up to 5 times a week. I loved it! Running was my absolute favourite form of exercise, of inspiration and of meditation. Around 8 months ago, I developed a weird pain in the ball of my foot that pushed me to focus on other forms of exercise. 💁🏽‍♀️ I was glad to diversify my regime and to give my joints a break — but then came the daunting task of getting back into running. 🤦🏽‍♀️ I’ve put it off many times, until I really missed a runner’s endorphins, clarity and the escape in general. I don’t necessarily desire to run as much, but I do want to know it’s there when I need it. 🤙🏻 So we’re taking small steps [literally] to warm up my ankles and my distances again. Today I ran for just half an hour, about 6km, and I’m happy with that! 4️⃣ HABITS THAT WORK FOR ME 🌸 On the weekends, I roll with the punches in terms of the way I eat. I don’t complain in the slightest if that welcomes a beautiful breakfast at @bentwoodfitzroy! 🤫 During the week, however, I’m still benefiting from eating my first meal at midday, in order to better my productivity and alertness. 👌🏼 I love finding new routines that work, and I’m grateful that I’m always willing to experiment! What’s making you grateful before midday this Monday?

    Day in the Life of a Social Media Manager

    September 28, 2017 /

      It’s one of those rare, calm days here in Wellington city. I’ve taken to the waterfront, as I often do, for a little break from my laptop screen. It’s Monday. It’s the 18th of September. Like the bay, I am content.   As I wander, Siri documents my words. I look odd to the scattering of people whom I pass and yet, it doesn’t faze me. It is far more satisfying to adjourn with fresh air than it is with a blank Pages document. Fortunately I talk much the way I write anyway.   More than talking, I find…

By about 6pm, I had exchanged floral for monochrome; Kate Spade’s ambassador for Michael Jackson 2003.   Eh, perhaps I’m overselling it.   I got cold. That’s right, it happens. Even at Fashion Week. In fact, especially here. You try promoting Spring in the last month of Winter. That shit is tough. I even got tired of prancing about in cute, leather sandals. #pityme   Although it would be my usual tendency to battle for beauty, this occasion, I was far from in the mood. 5 days…

        It is on two occasions – both at family dinner and in midst of NZFW – that I’ve found life tends to raise a hand with its most frequently asked question.   So what exactly are you planning to do with me, it asks.   Well, not in so many words. Like many a doubts it has, it projects this one by way of intrigued (otherwise, arguably snide) individuals.   “So where are you taking this?”, they ask, never not sending me into a haze of self-questioning: Should I know? Wait, what is it I want to do…

  • LONG WEEKEND FEELS 🌿 .. no chocolate eggs could compare to this. Yesterday, @a_jaxcreative and I hopped on an early flight and darted our way from Melbourne to Sydney. ✈️ After spending the day wandering The Grounds of Alexandria, Newtown and Camperdown.. we arrived at the real destination, @hotelcollectionist. It’s been far too long since I found myself in the quaint space that is, this unique, custom design hotel. You might remember I vacated walls of a fine pastel pink, the Tavi room, for Sydney Fashion Week last year. I spoke that it felt like home. After speaking about it all year long to @a_jaxcreative, I couldn’t be more happy to have him here with me now. To share with him our new space, Rita Velour, designed by Amber Road. Stay tuned on my stories, my blog and my Instagram as I share more from this sensational, idea-sparking space. I’ve found home once again, and yet, this home feels very different. Here I don’t have a care for the time. I set up my work station on the patio, and I feel myself breathing as the sun goes down. I make tea. I make freshly brewed coffee. I make the most of happy hour. Here things feel calm. I feel re-inspired. I feel ready to indulge in this little Sydney getaway. What are your plans for Easter weekend? Where do you find yourself? If you are spending it in Melbourne, I’d make your way to @dillydalymelbourne to treat yourself to another little slice of heaven. 🤤 On the subject of aesthetically-pleasing destinations, it’s quite impossible not to mention this spot. Don’t even get me started on the spread. Here’s to relieving ourselves of all pressure, responsibility and accountability this weekend. Wherever we are, let’s indulge freely and contently instead! Happy Easter weekend everyone!
  • THE BEST GRATITUDE HACK YOU’LL HEAR TODAY 🧘🏽‍♀️ .. trust me, this ideology just gets it. Surprise, surprise — my tendency to reference 10,000 podcasts a day is about to continue. 🤦🏽‍♀️ Believe me when I say, this one is worth it. As I was working out this morning, I listened to the latest episode of The Fitness and Lifestyle podcast by @djkfitness. 👉🏻 Today’s guest was mum of 3 and creator of her own self-development program, @indiavine. It’s not remotely surprising that I was drawn to the conversation: it is, after all, centred around the power of mindset. 💪🏻 The two discuss the importance of setting the tone for each day, and of understanding the control we have over our perspective. At one stage, the conversation turns to gratitude. 🙏🏻 India said [in rough words], if I asked you to write down the things you’re grateful for right now, you’d come up with a list of things: your family, your partner, your health, etc. But what if I told you that everything NOT included on that list will be taken away from you tomorrow? How much MORE would you write down? How many more little, mundane things would you add to that list? Better yet, how many things that you view as a problem right now — like your job, your finances, or even the things that stress you out. 😰 How many of these things would become characteristically valuable, if they were at risk of being taken away? I don’t know about you, but the list in my head just expanded from 5-or-so things to, well, everything in my life. Another thing I loved about this conversation — India reminds us that the human brain is not actually wired for happiness, but for survival. The modern-day pursuit towards happiness is a pursuit.. by virtue of the fact it is not a given. It requires daily work and unwavering dedication. I LOVE uncovering truths about the mindset that improve our ability to understand and to navigate it. 💁🏽‍♀️ I also love any excuse to justify another serotonin-inducing brunch! If happiness takes a daily avo smash at @wintermalvern, then guys, I’m totally there! 🤣😉
  • TAKING A STEP BACK .. 🙏🏻 my all-telling experience with hypnotherapy. For the last few weeks, my mindset has changed immensely. And from what I can tell, this has occurred for one key reason. I’ve realised the single thing standing in the way of my current life and my ideal life.. is me. It all began with the opportunity to work with @miaozenghypnotherapy. Granted it wasn’t something I’d previously considered, the practice had me very intrigued. I had a lot of questions. Was there something significant and underlying holding me back? Had I internalised childhood experiences.. to a degree that even I wasn’t aware of? I was curious. And yet, my curiosities would not be answered by Miao. Under her guidance, rather, I’d soon hear the words come from me. There was a particular moment within the session, where Miao asked me to describe an ideal day in my life. It was eye-opening as I described a day very similar to my own everyday. Until now, I hadn’t realised how close I was. Nor how much the concept of guilt had denied me from getting any closer. It turns out that I was, as suspected, holding onto past experiences. I was also feeling guilt in their regard to this day. These experiences, so long as I held onto them, acted to reinstate false realities about myself. And I had no clue. No ability to shut them down — for I saw them just the way a child does. With unwavering faith in their validity. I’d never taken the time to reassess as an adult. Head to my IGTV to hear more about my experience, and the unprecedented lessons I learnt during my session with @miaozenghypnotherapy. For those who wish to make peace with their past, or even for those who, like myself, operate unaware that there is peace to be made, my advice would be this: don’t be afraid to explore those emotions and experiences. Sometimes we don’t wish to discover what’s residing underneath. But more often that not, we need someone to bring it to light. I’m so excited to fill the gap once occupied by guilt.. with LIFE instead. 😎 Who’s with me?!
  • CLAIMING WHAT’S OURS 👉🏻 .. What’s the line between determined and entitled? Every sentence I speak as of late, begins with “I was listening to a podcast”. 💁🏽‍♀️ At this point, I can’t even distinguish the conversations I’ve had with people versus those I’ve sat in on. I’m both excited that I’m digesting so much information, and on edge of telling myself to find a new source. Perhaps I will. But only after I start one more with the infamous words. So guys, I was listening to a podcast. Long story short, they were talking about the mindset of millennials; in particular, the way we feel entitled to certain accolades, respect and recognition in life.. far earlier than any generation before us. They talked about how we think we’re smarter. What previous generations know, we believe we can learn. We pride ourselves on this ability to adapt and to progress quickly. Call it unfortunate, but I couldn’t agree more! 🤣 I feel like I respect myself and my own worth to this world, far more than a young person might have.. even just 30 years ago. I know I’m not the only one. Maybe it’s the way technology has advanced? Maybe it’s the rise of social media? These things make us assured that we have the firmest finger on the game. A far better idea of where it’s set to go than anyone else before us. I wouldn’t argue this is a completely negative outlook. For decades, young people have pleaded for their voices to be heard. In the name of lesser experience, they’ve often been quietened. Now, we refuse to have our age thrown back at us, as if it’s our fault we haven’t lived for thirty years prior. We’ve found a way to be young AND to be valuable. And honestly, I think it’s kind of awesome. For many reasons, I don’t think I’m smarter than the generation before me. But I DO hope evolution makes me this way eventually! 😅 Isn’t that the goal, after all? What do you think? Do you reckon we’re too entitled too soon? Or simply taking the opportunity to stand for our worth? When it comes to the tofu roll at @addictfoodandcoffee, I feel utterly entitled — but I’m also certain this could be a one off. 🤣
  • BALANCE 🧘🏽‍♀️🥂 .. what does it look like for you? When I wake up a little dusty, eyes heavy and stomach askew, nothing about that feels good. 🤣 In fact, it’s on a hungover Sunday where I do find myself both craving and valuing a fresh, motivated start the most. I tend to dive into full detox mode, pulling out every stop to recover as quickly as possible. Today, that’s meant drinking a whole lot of water. 💦 It’s also meant eating a big, fulfilling breakfast, despite having ordered @lordofthefries1 at the early hours of the morning. 😅 It’s meant taking my prebiotic blend by @flourish_live_naturally and my cider detox tablets by @zhou_nutrition. I want the alcohol out of this temple ASAP. It has meant taking several showers, washing my face and brushing my teeth several hundred times. The point is, I can’t wait to feel great again. And yet, I’m not mad that I don’t feel this way right now. Why? Because to me, this is what balance looks like. It looks like getting up at 5am each week day, working hard at the gym — and in life too. It looks like caring about what I put in my body and the way that affects me. It looks like creating positive sleeping patterns; like prioritising what’s best for my health and my well-being in general. But you know what? Every now and then, balance also looks like heading out; having just the right amount of G&T and dancing the night away. Much as I’m paying for it today, my life wouldn’t be as good without these seriously liberating, structure-free and fun moments. Without them, my 5am wake-ups might even lose their spark. Balance to me comes from having a structure you love — but not being afraid every now and then, to throw it away for something else you love. That’s having a damn good time! And not worrying about the consequences of doing so. What does balance look like to you? 💁🏽‍♀️ Is it ordering a green salad with fries? Or being a productive machine throughout the week .. just to do shit-all with your Sunday?! Admit it below! ‘Tis a safe, non-judgemental space here! No matter what state you find yourself today [I am definitely less on point than I appear here], have a very happy Sunday eve!
  • HAPPINESS 🧘🏽‍♀️🤸🏻‍♀️ .. on days it feels less complicated, we should remember how we defined it. If you watched my stories yesterday, you’ll know I was in such an elated, life-loving mood. For some unknown reason, everything fell into place. Not in my life, but in my mind. For just a momentary period, I held not one doubt in relation to the way my life looked. I didn’t doubt who I was in it or where I was going. I felt this undeniable and unquestionable sense of certainty: I was happy! So, so happy! In such a euphoric state, I found myself inclined to question what I truly cared about. When I was my happiest, and when life appeared its most clear and simple.. what was it that truly mattered and equated to that state of euphoria? The next time you experience unexpected and abundant happiness, I want you to ask yourself the same questions. In this state, do you — care about your body shape? Do you care that it may be imperfect? Do you care about work stresses? Do you care that you’ve made mistakes? Do you care about negative people? Do you care about what they do? Do you care about material objects? Do you care about acquiring more? Do you care about the money in your bank? Do you care about the money that’s not? Do you care about what you don’t have? Or, do you care about what you do? In these moments, all I can possibly bear to care about.. is how bloody fortune-giving the world around me is. MY world. The one I already have! I care about people and the way I impact them. I care about spreading and radiating joy. I care about laughing and smiling. In this moment, all I really care about is making it last. My single priority is to remain in this simple state of happy and in this simple state of grateful.. forever. For the times we feel lost or for when our priorities become skewed, we should remind ourselves of this reality. The reality of what matters to us.. in our happiest state.
  • FEELING INTIMATE 💁🏽‍♀️ It’s not wrong or anti-feminist. In fact, it’s something we should embrace. When you pride yourself on being an independent, strong woman like myself, it’s easy to get confused with where to draw the line. Are you still allowed to appreciate chivalry? Are you still allowed to feel sexy? To look sexy? To embrace and even flaunt your sex? I’d argue YES! 🙏🏻 What’s the point in fighting for the rights to our own female bodies and the way they’re perceived.. if not to re-claim and to seize that ownership! To me, being a strong, independent woman INCLUDES feeling sexy and allowing myself to be intimate as I please. It means not judging myself for doing so either! Amid many political debates, and also notably, the rise of social media, I think we forget the importance of being intimate with others — and also, of embracing how it feels to be intimate ourselves. I’ve worked alongside @skyn_au and @theorycrew across several events and projects now, and I’ll always stand behind their message to #saveintimacy! Of all the many great things we’ll feel in life, feeling sexy and feeling close to someone is one of the very best. I can’t wait to use this gift pack and all it’s many goodies — the @fujifulm_au Instax camera and Twister game-board in particular — to spice up those special moments between myself and @a_jaxcreative. How do YOU keep things interesting and see that you feel sexy or intimate.. whether you’re in a relationship or single?!👇🏻 Don’t be afraid to share!
  • NON-NEGOTIABLES 🙅🏽‍♀️ What are yours? I think we all have a few sacred things that, 🅰️ we can’t function without, or 🅱️ we’ve taught ourselves to prioritise. Why? Because the risk of NOT having or doing these things comes with a nasty consequence. Or well, five. Much as they sound impossibly glamorous, as if they could only plausibly relate to meditation and biking to the park every Saturday, the truth is often far less picture-perfect. Take, ordering fries if they’re offered on the menu. 💁🏽‍♀️ Not such a great non-negotiable to uphold, but nonetheless, something I appear to have taken on. Both negative and positive in nature, here’s a few further examples. 1️⃣ MORNING COFFEE ☕️ I don’t care if doer-of-all-great-things, @badgalriri, raves about a caffeine detox, or complains about the shakes. The way my day starts, wth a warm cup of black gold, is non-negotiable. 🙌🏻 I love the taste of it, I love it’s kickstart, I love it’s culture. And as of recent, I also love @st.remio’s full-bodied blend. They’re making the concept of giving back a non-negotiable, every time we invest in their beans or coffee capsules. 👌🏼 Forcing us to consider the coffee growers behind every cup, I’m delighted to make my coffee intake truly count — for someone other than myself for once. #WeAreStRemio 2️⃣ WORKING OUT 🏋🏻‍♀️ Regular readers will know that finding time to exercise and to move my body is never a question of if — but when. If I don’t prioritise this physical and mental escape, ya girl becomes angsty, fidgety and hella frustrated. Kind of like a public nuisance. The only difference being, that @a_jaxcreative bears 90-100% of the brunt. 😂 Isn’t love just so special? 3️⃣ PEOPLE 👯‍♀️ Hanging out with friends and socialising, unless I’ve done far too much of it for one week, tends to be another big non-negotiable for me. After all, it’s so key to lifting my mood, to putting things in perspective and to seeing that I truly embrace life! What are YOUR non-negotiables?! Let’s hear your honest answers below! 🙃👇🏻
  • IT’S THE LITTLE THINGS 😇 .. that make up a positive mindset. I’ve woken up this Monday feeling super grateful. It’s been a mere two hours, and already, there are so many things making this day great. You want to hear them? 🙋🏽‍♀️ Okay, okay. Here they are! 1️⃣ DAYLIGHT SAVINGS 🌅 Thanks to this glorious concept, that I didn’t get to bed early enough last night didn’t matter! I woke up at 5am this morning, rearing to go! When I arrived at the gym and the clock was an hour out, everything made sense. 2️⃣ MORNING WALKS 🚶🏻‍♀️ Also a result of daylight savings, I’m now back to enjoying my mindful morning walks! For the past few weeks, it’s been difficult. Try being calm whilst battling the prospect that some creepy person is lurking in the dark. 😆 Now, it’s just after 6.30am. The sky is blue, the air is cool, the river is calm. The part is.. I can actually see it! 3️⃣ RUNNING PROGRESS 🏃‍♀️ I used to be someone who ran 10-12k up to 5 times a week. I loved it! Running was my absolute favourite form of exercise, of inspiration and of meditation. Around 8 months ago, I developed a weird pain in the ball of my foot that pushed me to focus on other forms of exercise. 💁🏽‍♀️ I was glad to diversify my regime and to give my joints a break — but then came the daunting task of getting back into running. 🤦🏽‍♀️ I’ve put it off many times, until I really missed a runner’s endorphins, clarity and the escape in general. I don’t necessarily desire to run as much, but I do want to know it’s there when I need it. 🤙🏻 So we’re taking small steps [literally] to warm up my ankles and my distances again. Today I ran for just half an hour, about 6km, and I’m happy with that! 4️⃣ HABITS THAT WORK FOR ME 🌸 On the weekends, I roll with the punches in terms of the way I eat. I don’t complain in the slightest if that welcomes a beautiful breakfast at @bentwoodfitzroy! 🤫 During the week, however, I’m still benefiting from eating my first meal at midday, in order to better my productivity and alertness. 👌🏼 I love finding new routines that work, and I’m grateful that I’m always willing to experiment! What’s making you grateful before midday this Monday?

  • LONG WEEKEND FEELS 🌿 .. no chocolate eggs could compare to this. Yesterday, @a_jaxcreative and I hopped on an early flight and darted our way from Melbourne to Sydney. ✈️ After spending the day wandering The Grounds of Alexandria, Newtown and Camperdown.. we arrived at the real destination, @hotelcollectionist. It’s been far too long since I found myself in the quaint space that is, this unique, custom design hotel. You might remember I vacated walls of a fine pastel pink, the Tavi room, for Sydney Fashion Week last year. I spoke that it felt like home. After speaking about it all year long to @a_jaxcreative, I couldn’t be more happy to have him here with me now. To share with him our new space, Rita Velour, designed by Amber Road. Stay tuned on my stories, my blog and my Instagram as I share more from this sensational, idea-sparking space. I’ve found home once again, and yet, this home feels very different. Here I don’t have a care for the time. I set up my work station on the patio, and I feel myself breathing as the sun goes down. I make tea. I make freshly brewed coffee. I make the most of happy hour. Here things feel calm. I feel re-inspired. I feel ready to indulge in this little Sydney getaway. What are your plans for Easter weekend? Where do you find yourself? If you are spending it in Melbourne, I’d make your way to @dillydalymelbourne to treat yourself to another little slice of heaven. 🤤 On the subject of aesthetically-pleasing destinations, it’s quite impossible not to mention this spot. Don’t even get me started on the spread. Here’s to relieving ourselves of all pressure, responsibility and accountability this weekend. Wherever we are, let’s indulge freely and contently instead! Happy Easter weekend everyone!
  • THE BEST GRATITUDE HACK YOU’LL HEAR TODAY 🧘🏽‍♀️ .. trust me, this ideology just gets it. Surprise, surprise — my tendency to reference 10,000 podcasts a day is about to continue. 🤦🏽‍♀️ Believe me when I say, this one is worth it. As I was working out this morning, I listened to the latest episode of The Fitness and Lifestyle podcast by @djkfitness. 👉🏻 Today’s guest was mum of 3 and creator of her own self-development program, @indiavine. It’s not remotely surprising that I was drawn to the conversation: it is, after all, centred around the power of mindset. 💪🏻 The two discuss the importance of setting the tone for each day, and of understanding the control we have over our perspective. At one stage, the conversation turns to gratitude. 🙏🏻 India said [in rough words], if I asked you to write down the things you’re grateful for right now, you’d come up with a list of things: your family, your partner, your health, etc. But what if I told you that everything NOT included on that list will be taken away from you tomorrow? How much MORE would you write down? How many more little, mundane things would you add to that list? Better yet, how many things that you view as a problem right now — like your job, your finances, or even the things that stress you out. 😰 How many of these things would become characteristically valuable, if they were at risk of being taken away? I don’t know about you, but the list in my head just expanded from 5-or-so things to, well, everything in my life. Another thing I loved about this conversation — India reminds us that the human brain is not actually wired for happiness, but for survival. The modern-day pursuit towards happiness is a pursuit.. by virtue of the fact it is not a given. It requires daily work and unwavering dedication. I LOVE uncovering truths about the mindset that improve our ability to understand and to navigate it. 💁🏽‍♀️ I also love any excuse to justify another serotonin-inducing brunch! If happiness takes a daily avo smash at @wintermalvern, then guys, I’m totally there! 🤣😉
