Good morning

There are days shaped not by insight, but by obligation by the quiet insistence of things that must be tended, moved along, carried through.

You don’t step back from them. You’re inside them. The body knows what’s required before the mind has time to interfere, and progress comes through continuation rather than reflection. There is a weight to that kind of work. It asks for attention without offering recognition.

I’ve come to believe much of our formation happens there. In the unremarkable middle. In hours that resist explanation and yet leave their mark all the same. These moments refine patience, humility, and resolve not because they feel important, but because they demand faithfulness.

Sunday has a way of revealing what the week conceals.

It reminds me that not all labor is visible, and not all growth announces itself. Some of it is carried quietly, shaped by repetition and restraint, and understood only after the fact. There is dignity in that steadiness. There is wisdom in remaining present to what must be done, even when it offers no immediate reward.

If this day allows you a pause, may it be a restorative one. May what you’re carrying feel lighter, if only briefly and may the week ahead meet you with sufficient strength, clear judgment, and grace for what remains unfinished ❤️

Happy Saturday, dear friends.

Today finds me both grateful and a little overwhelmed in the best, most human way. The outpouring of emails, messages, and thoughtful comments has been deeply felt. Thank you. We are stronger now, though the lingering cough reminds us that healing is often a process, not an event. And that, too, is okay.

The new school year began on Wednesday, arriving with its familiar blend of anticipation and demand. There is something sobering about fresh beginnings they invite hope, but they also ask much of us. Forms to complete, details to organize, responsibilities quietly stacking themselves one atop another. This weekend will be spent tending to those unseen tasks that keep life moving forward, the small acts of stewardship that rarely announce themselves but matter all the same.

I hope you are all well, wherever this Saturday finds you.

Tonight and tomorrow hold their share of admin and meetings necessary pauses to realign, to sort, to bring order where things have grown scattered. I find a strange comfort in that. There is peace in putting things back in their rightful place.

Our daughter’s school sends home a calendar for the entire year every event, every match, every commitment laid out in advance like a map. I’ve been carefully transferring it all into my diary and have proudly made it to April 🫣
Progress worth celebrating, even if it comes with a laugh. It may take a few more days; it is, after all, a very busy school. Life, too, tends to be.

As the day unfolds, my wish for each of you is simple may your hours be gentle, your hearts steady, and your spirits rested. May there be grace for what remains undone and gratitude for what has already been carried.

Wishing you a peaceful and blessed remainder of the day ❤️

Good Morning

We’ve been dealing with a fire across the road since Tuesday one that refuses to rest. Each time the heat rises and the wind shifts, it flares back to life, unpredictable and relentless.

On Tuesday, a single ember lifted into the air and landed on a neighbour’s roof. Watching flames take hold from something so small was deeply unsettling. In that moment, the fragility of safety became very real. By God’s grace, the house was saved but the lesson stayed with me.

It’s astonishing how something barely visible can cause so much damage.

I’ve been down with flu this week, and my family suffered from heavy smoke inhalation. I burned my hand in the chaos. Yet even in the discomfort and fear, we feel profoundly blessed. Things could have been so much worse. When crisis hits, there’s no room for self-pity your instinct is simply to help. To check that everyone is accounted for. To protect what and who you can.

There were many children nearby, drawn by the noise and confusion. In between everything else, my focus kept returning to them making sure they stayed safe, making sure fear didn’t claim more ground than the fire already had.

The message in all of this has been clear to me, small things matter. A single ember can destroy a home or be stopped before it does. The same is true in life. Small moments, small choices, small acts of care and attention can either prevent great loss or quietly shape something good. We often wait for big signs, forgetting that life is usually changed by what seems insignificant at first.

Right now, there are far worse fires burning across our beautiful country. Families who have lost their homes. People standing in the ashes of what once held their memories. It humbles you quickly.

One small spark can change a person’s life.

As I take time to recover, I wanted to leave you with this, be watchful of the small things. Tend to them early. Choose kindness quickly. Help without hesitation. Because when the moment comes, it’s rarely the size of the fire that matters but how we respond when it first appears.

May we remain aware. May we help when it matters. And may we never underestimate the power for harm or for good of the smallest things ❤️

Good morning

Firstly, I want to say a huge thank you for all the comments and messages I haven’t been able to respond to everyone, but I’ve seen each and every one of your kind words.

It’s been quite an eventful week. On top of dealing with the flu, we also had a scare when one of our neighbor’s thatch roofs caught alight due to a wildfire. With the wind carrying sparks, we had to help put it out ourselves, as our fire department is extremely busy with all the wildfires at the moment and can’t be everywhere. I ended up burning my hand in the process. We’ve been monitoring our oxygen and heart rates, and while it’s been a lot, we are managing. My hand is still a bit sore.

I will most likely only be back later this week or next week, but in the meantime, I pray that your Thursday is filled with peace, protection, and unexpected moments of joy 🩵🤍

Good morning

I’m sorry I’ve been so quiet lately. The past weekend was filled with work, and by yesterday my body finally tapped me on the shoulder with a tough case of the flu. Sometimes life asks us to slow down whether we planned to or not.

Right now, I’m resting, healing, and giving myself the grace to pause knowing that good health is part of being able to serve well in the long run. I’ll be back as soon as I’m feeling better and ready to give my full energy again.

Thank you for your patience and understanding ❤️

Good Morning

I find myself wondering this morning, how often do we mistake noise for substance? Mental clutter is more than just a busy mind it is the constant hum of unfinished tasks, unresolved emotions, and information that drifts through our consciousness, vying for attention but adding no real value. It’s the invisible weight we carry, the invisible walls that separate us from clarity and peace.

There’s a strange paradox in life the more we try to hold onto everything, the less we can truly hear the things that matter. When the mind is overcrowded, even beauty can pass unnoticed, even joy can whisper and go unheard. And yet, when we choose to let go when we deliberately release the superfluous, the distracting, the unessential we give the necessary room to breathe.

Simplicity is not absence. It is intentional space. It is listening to what wants to be known rather than forcing what does not. It is the courage to face the quiet, to step into emptiness not as loss but as possibility. Perhaps this is where clarity lives, where wisdom speaks, and where we are closest to truth.

Today, I want to clear a little more space within myself. To release what is heavy, repetitive, and unnecessary. To allow the essential the kind of clarity, connection, and creativity that stirs the soul to emerge.

May your day offer you the same gift moments of stillness that reveal what truly matters, freedom from what drains, and courage to embrace simplicity as a path to clarity. May your heart be light, your mind be quiet, and your spirit be inspired ❤️

Good morning

We are, by nature, dreamers creatures who imagine vast horizons, sketch ambitions that shimmer beyond what we can yet see. Yet, all too often, the smallest detour a delay, a doubt, a minor setback can cloud our hope and make the journey ahead feel impossibly steep.

“Breaking goals into steps turns anxiety into clarity and chaos into control.” – David Allen

There is quiet power in this truth. In life as in business, breaking a large vision into small, deliberate actions transforms confusion into focus, uncertainty into momentum. When we attend to the next step, rather than the entire path, the journey becomes less daunting and more attainable.

Milestones matter. Each small, intentional accomplishment makes a dream tangible. Approaching our tasks one piece at a time is not just method it is a way of thinking that nurtures clarity, builds confidence, and sustains steady effort. Overwhelm fades when each action is taken with attention and care. Over time, these small steps gather quietly, accumulating into meaningful, lasting progress.

“You don’t achieve big dreams by force; you achieve them by focus, on step at a time.” – John Doerr

There is comfort in this. Each act sending a message, making a call, tending a project, simply showing up carries a weight that matters more than it feels in the moment. Life, like business, grows in these patient, faithful gestures. There is strength in persistence, a kind of grace in steady progress, and a quiet satisfaction in noticing even the smallest victories along the way.

May your days be filled with clarity when the world feels confusing, courage when doubt arises, and the quiet joy of meaningful progress. May your work, your dreams, and your heart move forward gently, steadily, and with purpose.

Blessings on every careful step you take 🤍🩵

Happy New Year 🥂

I’ve never done resolutions. They feel too rigid, too performative. What I do is set intentions. Small, deliberate ways to meet life instead of letting it sweep me along. And even that feels heavy some days.

I’m sitting with the year behind me some of it soft, some jagged and the year ahead, which I don’t know at all. I try to notice what I’ve carried, what I’ve left, and what I might still need to release. Growth is quiet. It isn’t fireworks or announcements. It’s showing up. It’s persistence. It’s learning when to hold on and when to finally let go. Sometimes, it’s just surviving a day without losing yourself entirely.

Some days will feel easy. Some unbearably hard. And perhaps that’s exactly how it should be. There’s a reason for both. Emerson was right, “The years teach much which the days never know.”

I wish that clarity finds you when everything feels blurred, that your heart feels steady even when the world doesn’t, that you notice what truly matters before it slips away. That you can hold the things worth keeping, and release the rest without regret. That the small, quiet moments the ones that feel ordinary turn out to be the ones that matter most.

I don’t know what this year will bring. I can’t control it. But I can meet it with attention, with patience, with deliberate choices. With the courage to be gentle with myself. And I hope you can do the same.

There is wisdom in simply noticing. There is hope in simply showing up. And perhaps, that is enough ❤️
