    Silence in Self Advocacy

    Just when I thought I’d wrapped up one journey, life threw me into another—this time, one that forced me to face my health head-on. With that came challenges at work, co-parenting struggles, and the realisation that not everything needs to be handled immediately. Some things can wait. In this episode, I open up about learning to slow down, listen to my body, and give myself the time I need to rest, reset and centre myself. Because sometimes, pressing pause is the most powerful thing we can do.

    Closing the chapter

    As the new year begins, I find myself approaching a new chapter: nearing the finalisation of my divorce. In this episode, I reflect on what this means for me as a solo mum, navigating life while prioritising myself and my children. I explore the lessons I’ve learnt, the hopes I hold for the future, and the fears that come with trusting someone again. It’s a journey of self-discovery, healing, and imagining what love and partnership could look like on my own terms."
