New shoes always pinch before they fit 👟🧡
Happy Sunday everyone, wherever you are in the world 🧡 This week we worked on our Comfort and Change Map and looked for one small step in the Stretch zone, and on Tuesday we watched Mel Robbins starting over at 52, not waiting to feel ready, just taking the next step and then the next one. I keep thinking about how uncomfortable that first step can feel, even when it's something we really want. Think about a new pair of shoes. That first week they pinch a little, you notice them with every step, and you're so tempted to slip your old comfy pair back on. There's nothing wrong with the new ones, they're just new, and the only way they start to fit is by walking in them. Then one morning you put them on without even thinking, and you realise they've become yours. Change works exactly the same way. That little pinch when you try something new is just your body getting used to a new fit, and every step you take is quiet proof that you can do this, long before you actually feel sure. So before we step into a new week, look back for a moment. Is there something you were nervous to start that feels completely normal to you now? Remember how it felt in the beginning, and how it feels today 😊 💬 Tell me in the comments, what's something that once pinched and now fits you perfectly? 👉 Finish this sentence for your week ahead, "This week I'm going to keep walking in..." 📊 Vote in the poll below 👇

Go Glimmer Hunting Today ✨
Happy Saturday! Today I'm sending you on a little glimmer hunt ✨ A glimmer is one of those tiny moments that makes you smile or soften for a second without you even trying, the smell of fresh coffee, sunlight coming through the curtains, a bird singing outside, a friend's name popping up on your phone, a song you love coming on in the shop. They're there every day, we're just usually rushing past them, so today let's slow down a little and actually notice them. You might be surprised how many you find once you start looking. And it's not just a nice feeling, our body is always quietly checking if we're safe, so every time you stop and notice a glimmer you're telling it, it's okay, you can relax now. The more you notice them, the easier it gets for your body to find that calm on its own. Then come back later and share your glimmer moment in the comments, a photo, a few words, whatever you like, I'd love for us to fill this post with them 💬 Where do you find your glimmers most? Vote in the poll 📊 To your next chapter 🧡

What would 20 year old you think of your life now? 💭
Happy Thursday 💛 I've been thinking about how much we've become since our twenties. If 20 year old me could see me now, she'd be shocked that I run an online community and talk to a camera most days 😄 What would surprise your younger self the most about the woman you are today? 👉 Vote in the poll, then tell me in the comments what would make her laugh, or proud

Help us shape our free end of year webinar💻
Caro Melnick and I are teaming up to host a free live webinar to close out 2026, and we want to build it around what you actually need right now, not what we assume you need. This time of year tends to stir things up. There's the rush to wrap everything up, the quiet "what did I even do this year?" feeling, and the pressure to have 2027 figured out by January 1st. Midlife adds its own layer: shifting roles, changing bodies, and the question of who we are now that some of the old labels no longer fit. So tell us: which conversation would make the biggest difference for you? 1. Celebrating 2026: Owning What I've Achieved. Most of us skip straight past our wins. We'll slow down, name them, and actually let them count. 2. Who Am I Now? Midlife Identity. When the roles shift (parent, partner, career), who's left? Reconnecting with the person underneath. 3. Letting Go of What 2026 Asked Me to Carry. Closing the year without dragging old disappointments, guilt or unfinished business into the new one. 4. 2027 With Clarity: Intentions, Not Resolutions. A grounded way to choose your direction that doesn't fall apart by February. 5. Confidence and Visibility: Stepping Out of the Background. For the woman who's spent years making space for everyone else and is ready to take up some of her own. 6. Purpose After a Big Transition. Empty nest, career change, retirement, loss: finding meaning when life looks different than it used to. 👇 Cast your vote below, and if there's a topic we've missed that's sitting heavy on your mind, drop it in the comments. We read every one, and the top choices will shape the session. 📅 Date and registration details coming soon. Keep an eye out!

Why Does Your Body Pull Back From Change? 🌿
Have you ever wanted something to change for ages, and then the moment it actually starts your whole body pulls back? Maybe the house is finally quieter and you've been longing for time that's just yours. And now that it's here, you find yourself filling it with tidying, errands, anything familiar. Grateful for the space, and not quite sure what to do with it yet. That's your nervous system, it absolutely loves what's familiar. Your old habits feel safe to your body, even the ones that don't really fit the woman you're becoming, so when something new shows up, even something you've wanted for a long time, your body can treat it like a warning sign before your mind has even caught up. What helps is asking yourself whether the change is actually risky or whether it's just new. If it's risky it needs a proper plan, but most of the time it's just new, and new only needs a smaller step and a bit of support. I always think of it like walking on a misty morning, you can only see a few steps in front of you and you could stand there waiting for it to clear, but it usually only clears once you start walking. Each step shows you a bit more of the path, and that's how your brain starts to believe you can do this. So this week I'm not asking you for anything big, just one small step you can try. Your worksheet, My Comfort and Change Map, is attached to this post, so grab a coffee and give yourself about 20 minutes with it, it'll help you find that one step to try before Friday. When something new comes up, how quickly does your body react, before you've even thought about it? Vote in the poll and then tell me in the comments what you notice first. Nervous system first, identity next.
