I have been a bit quiet on here lately — life has been full with appointments and starting the transition from Brisbane to our new place.

It feels surreal that this moment we’ve been waiting for is finally here. By mid-November, Brisbane will no longer be “home” and we’ll be fully moved into our new place. It’s not just a new chapter; it honestly feels like an entirely new book.

These last seven months back in Brisbane have been strange at times. The day after moving, I broke my leg — so much of this period has felt like recovery. Of course there’s been more to it than that, but it’s hard not to feel like that’s been the defining piece. Still, I’ve learnt some necessary lessons through it.

Tomorrow I start a new job nursing in the local community, which feels good on a lot of levels. And the next seven weeks are going to be hectic as we tie up loose ends in Brisbane and finally make the move.

It’s been a long time coming, and I’m so excited to finally have our own space to shape how we want. Honestly, it feels like life is just beginning.

Another great Monday night huddle with Jess Seagren tonight.

She shared this quote:
“What are you so afraid of losing when nothing in this world belongs to you?”

It hit me because so much of what we hold onto isn’t actually ours. It’s the beliefs we’ve absorbed from school, church, family, society. And here’s the kicker: those beliefs are the one thing you can change.

If you’re not happy with your job…
If you’re sick of living pay-to-pay…
If you barely see your family because work drains your time and energy…

You get to choose how you respond. You get to choose whether you keep following the same patterns or shift them.

Outside of that? We don’t really control much else. But your choices, your reactions, your decisions- are always in your hands.

I’m part way through The Let Them Theory by Mel Robbins and honestly, I can’t recommend it enough.

The whole idea is simple but powerful: stop wasting energy trying to control what others do, think, or say and just let them. It’s practical, it’s freeing, and it’s one of those “of course!” moments that makes you wonder why we don’t all live this way.

For anyone who’s been stuck worrying about other people’s opinions (hi, I’ve been there 🙋🏼‍♀️), this is a game-changer.

Who has read it? Thoughts?

Spent the morning in Goondiwindi shopping and poking around the local stores. That’s what I love about regional towns- friendly faces, slower pace, and always a surprise find.
Being back at Mum and Dad’s, close to where we’ve bought, reminds me it’s so much more than just the property. It’s about the lifestyle. The space, the people, the rhythm of life that feels grounded and real.
This is the life Deb and I pictured, and little moments like today make me excited for what’s ahead.

It feels like my life has been moving in 3-month intervals lately…

🌿 3 months on crutches — testing my patience, slowing me down, and reminding me that healing takes time.
🏡 3 months of buying and selling houses — excitement mixed with stress, paperwork, and big decisions.
⏳ And now… another 3 months of waiting until we can finally move into our new home.

If I’ve learned anything, it’s that life runs in seasons. Some stretch us, some ground us, some feel like they’ll never end. But each one teaches us something if we’re willing to see it.

Now here we are, only 3 months left before we hit the “silly season” where the year disappears in a blur.

The question I’ve been asking myself (and maybe you need this too): What do I want these next 3 months to mean?

Because we can let another season just pass us by… or we can use it to set up the life we actually want to be living.

Tell me below, what’s your focus for these next 3 months?

Courage > Competence > Confidence.

Confidence was a big theme at DreamFest on the weekend. But the truth is you don’t start with confidence. To get it, you’ve actually got to get uncomfortable and just do the thing.

FIRST it takes courage, then you build competence in the skill, and only then do you earn the confidence.

This one hits me hard because my brain often tells me I need to be perfect at something—even when I’ve never done it before. Which is crazy, right? How can I be perfect at a skill I haven’t even learnt yet? That thinking only leads to procrastination, talking myself down, and eventually convincing myself I’ve failed before I’ve even started. My brain ends up looking like a tangled ball of wool—knotted, messy, and impossible to find a way out. Let’s be honest, we’ve all been there.

One of the biggest lessons I’ve had since starting my network marketing journey is that every day pushes me outside my comfort zone. When I first started, I couldn’t even bring myself to show up online. I’d spiral: What will people think? What if I offend someone? Now? Honestly, I don’t give a damn.

And today I was reminded of this again. I was working out how many conversations I need to be having each day to reach my goal, and wow so many stories came up. I’m an introvert, and I tell myself I’m not great at talking to people. I caught myself in that thought loop and realised—these thoughts aren’t serving me.

That’s the gift of doing this work: you become aware of the patterns as they’re happening, and you can stop them before they take over.

So instead of hanging on to the stories and meaning I’d attached, I set them aside and just focused on the fact: I need to have x conversations per day. That’s it.

It’s still a big stretch for me. I’ll probably fumble, stuff it up, and feel awkward but I’ll also get better. One day I’ll look back, laugh, and wonder what I was so worried about.

So thank you to my leaders, mentors, and training platform for giving me the tools to understand myself better and for allowing me to pass this on to others.
