For most of my life, I thought I was just “too sensitive.” Too emotional. Too aware. Too deeply affected by things other people seemed to brush off. A change in someone’s tone. A short reply. Feeling left out. Someone seeming distant. Being corrected. And suddenly my whole nervous system would spiral trying to work out what I’d done wrong. I’ve also always had 50,000 ideas and projects happening at once. My mind rarely slows down. I get inspired easily. Excited easily. Bored easily too. Lately, I’ve been learning more about ADHD, nervous systems, emotional regulation, and sensitivity… and honestly, so much of my life suddenly makes sense. I haven’t been diagnosed.And truthfully, I’m not overly attached to labels anyway. Labels are for cans. 😉 But understanding that some nervous systems experience rejection, criticism, overwhelm, and emotions more intensely has helped me meet myself with far more compassion. For years I thought something was wrong with me. Now I see it differently. I don’t see my sensitivity as weakness anymore. I see it as awareness. As intuition. As creativity. As empathy. As the part of me that notices what others often miss. I also know I need quiet. Stillness Space to regulate my nervous system and return to myself. That’s why meditation, stitching, neurographical art, zentangles, yoga, sound, mindfulness, and creative projects have become such important parts of my life. Not because they “fix” me.But because they help me slow down enough to breathe inside my own mind again. So many of us grew up hearing: “You’re too sensitive." “You’re overthinking.” “Stop taking things so personally.” So we learned to mask it. Hide it. Push through it. Pretend we were okay. Meanwhile internally, we were replaying conversations for hours. But maybe sensitivity was never the problem. Maybe some of us were simply wired to feel deeply, create deeply, love deeply, and experience the world in a different way. And honestly? I think that might just be my superpower. 💛

I’m feeling into what wants to be created next inside our space, and I’d truly love your input. If you could choose something to gently dive into, what feels most aligned for you right now? Take a moment to tune in and select what calls to you, or add your own idea in the comments. I’m listening 💛

A gentle space to slow down, soften, and let your mind quieten through simple lines and colour. You don’t need to be artistic. You don’t need to get it right. Just a willingness to show up for yourself. You’ll find it in the 𝐂𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐫𝐨𝐨𝐦 𝐭𝐚𝐛 whenever you feel ready to begin 💛

Hey beautiful soul 💛 From time to time I may pop on and go live, sometimes just to connect, sometimes offering live card pulls. If you’d like to join me, here’s a simple guide below. ( Click on image to enlarge) Come as you are, I’d love to see you there 💛

With everything going on with my health, I’ve been feeling quite vulnerable and raw. Letting others hold me in that hasn’t come easily. It feels unfamiliar, and at times very uncomfortable. But there’s also something really comforting in allowing myself to be held by other women. I guess that’s what “Bare Your Soul” does, right. I’ve just completed a 6 week "Bare Your Soul" journey with five other women, gently peeling back the layers. Maybe growth doesn’t come without a little discomfort, and learning to stay with ourselves through it. Just gently noticing where this is showing up for you might be enough today 💛
