A LESSON IN ACCOUNTABILITY and RESPONSIBILITY

The concept of accountability and taking responsibility has been a pretty in-my-face universal lesson as of late. Presenting itself both through the actions and experiences of those in my life; and also challenging me to respond during a few of my own recent obstacles (let’s call these ‘life pickles’ because it sounds more fun and […]

WHEN LIFE FEELS FUNKY

I’ve got it on good authority that the energy of our little planet, as of late, has gone a little awry. Everyone is feeling a wee bit more on edge, things that normally wouldn’t fret us are now sending us into a tail spin, we feel out of sorts and restless … Well, this has […]

SHARING THE LOVE

Because it’s not too often that an article resonate with you BIG time and you need to share the shit out of it. I was sent the link to this incredible piece by Free + Native from a friend (who loves and cares for me, oh so deeply) and said that it ‘screamed Emily’. Then […]

Things I am FUCKING in love with (expletive needed).

  1 // Tiny phone text. For those of you who have been privy to my handwriting – you will know that I write like a typewriter. A typewriter for ants. It’s minuscule. Go into your iPhone display settings and set it to TEENY TINY mode. My heart is so happy. 2 // Coffee. My […]

MID YEAR MUSINGS

I just wrote the date and was flummoxed when my hand wrote a ‘6’ in the designated month box. How the FUG did we somehow arrive at the 6th month of a 12 month year? I know I’m not alone in my thinking that this year, twenny-sixteen, has absolutely flown by. Now, normally this realisation […]

5 SIGNS FROM THE UNIVERSE THAT YOU’RE ON THE RIGHT PATH

Are you ever unsure of where you’re meant to be or what you should be doing? That, sometimes, you feel like you strayed from your intended path and are so far from where you should be that it feels like a lifetime away? Or are you sometimes hesitant to take the next step, because you just […]

(A RETROSPECTIVE LOOK AT) HEART ACHE AND BREAK

I found this piece, scrawled months and months back, in my notes. It’s pretty heavy and it feels pretty freakin’ powerful to be sitting in a completely different place from where I was when it was birthed – but the truth of (the majority of) these words still rings true. Except, from where I am […]

HOW TO RAISE YOUR VIBE AND LIVE AN ‘EFF YEAH!’ LIFE.

Apologies for the Monday morning profanities (but, not really). In the midst of a Sunday evening Instagram scroll, these bad boy appeared on my feed and punched me right in the feels. They scarily resonated with a conversation that I’d had earlier that afternoon with some of my gals (over an amazing lunch and vino fuelled catch […]

What Voldemort and I have in Common

I’m not planning world domination, nor am I seeking revenge on a visually challenged, scar donning adolescent – BUT old mate Voldie and I do actually have a common thread. He calls them horcruxes, I call them life experiences. I recently came across a quote that says “travelling means leaving a piece of your heart all […]
