Wisdom + soul healing for the second half of life
A sacred space for women at the threshold – exploring spiritual awakening, healing and transformation in the middle seasons of life
Welcome, dear one.
This blog is a place where I share insights, stories, and practices to help you navigate the deep transitions of life — especially the often-hidden initiations of midlife.
It weaves soul-centred reflections, healing insights and poetic truths for sensitive midlife women navigating spiritual awakening, life transition, and the call to reclaim their deeper power.

What’s wrong with me?
In this heartfelt post, I explore the common and often silent question many of us ask: "What's wrong with me?" Through personal experiences and insights from my counseling practice, I reveal how this question stems from deep-seated beliefs formed in our early years. I discuss the importance of witnessing and nurturing our true selves, recognising the unique gifts we hold, and understanding that there is nothing inherently wrong with us. This post offers a compassionate perspective on self-acceptance and the journey to reclaiming our authentic selves.
