Brene Brown's TED talk on The Power of Vulnerability had a profound impact on me. I was so intrigued about "wholehearted" living and what it means to have the experience of being "whole".

I watched it for the first time in 2012. When she shared that vulnerability is the access to connection and love, I started crying. I realised how hard it was for me to be vulnerable.

The example that she shared from her research that shook my core was this:

"Vulnerability is asking my husband for help"

We've officially entered a brand new season - I love that Mother Nature reminds us of the impermanence of all things. That there is a season for everything - and magic can be found in the new life that's about to emerge in Spring....and there is also magic to be found in witnessing the trees letting go of the old - to make time for the new. 

What if we could apply the cycle of the seasons to our beliefs?

I want to be able to be under the stars and talk to her all night about everything and anything - she isn't that."

In a separate conversation, another friend shares; "I love him.. and he is s...

One of my biggest fears in parenting is our son, Avery will feel unseen, unheard, and doesn't get a sense of being accepted and understood. The result, a life yearning and craving for validation, approval, and working through an understanding of unworthiness.

I've missed you and I apologise for being MIA!.. Our family has just completed a 4-week journey through the magical land of Japan... and it's good to be back home.

I never thought I would say that after a trip.

Usually, I yearn for our travels to be extended. This time around, I couldn't wait to get back to routine and craved some reprieve of what was the most challenging 4 weeks as a mother and a wife.
