For some of you, today is full of joy, laughter, and family… soak it up and enjoy every moment. For others, today might feel a bit heavier. If that’s you, breathe, feel what you feel, and remember that tomorrow is a brand-new day, and you get to choose again. Wherever you are and whatever today looks like for you, I’m wishing you peace, warmth, and a touch of magic. Have a beautiful Christmas 💖✨

It’s Christmas and I hope you are all having a wonderful day. Mine is a bit quiet as my son is with his dad this year so I thought we could have some fun. Type Christmas followed by your name into the gifs and let’s share a Christmassy version of us 🤣

I have been playing around with the new images n ChatGPT and a friend of mine gave me a prompt to try: "Create an ultra-realistic 8K Christmas portrait using a 55mm lens with bright, playful holiday lighting. The woman is in a whimsical candy-cane themed photoshoot, surrounded by pink giant peppermint decorations, snowy ground, festive trees, and oversized ornaments. Use her real facial features exactly as they are — do NOT change or alter her face in any way. Her makeup is festive glam — winged liner, warm eyeshadow, rosy cheeks, and a bold holiday soft pink lips. She wears a sparkly teal & silver long-sleeve pants jumpsuit , fitted and shimmering with sequins. The back of the jumpsuit has a scoop-back cut, adding keeping the holiday sparkle. She is sitting on a white cube block, posing with one leg crossed over the other. Her expression is playful and confident, smiling warmly toward the camera. In her hand, she holds a giant pink-and-white peppermint lollipop prop, resting it over her shoulder in a fun, candy-land pose. Around her is a fully decorated Christmas set: • Snowy ground with fluffy artificial snow • Christmas trees dusted with frost, decorated with pink ornaments and string lights • Oversized and canes framing whimsical beside her • A large shiny red Christmas ornament near her feet Lighting should be bright, clean, and festive, capturing the glimmer of the sequins and the pink candy-themed props. The colors are vibrant reds, whites, and silvers, giving a magical North Pole holiday studio vibe." Use it and attached a selfie to see what you get

If you’ve ever tried to build a habit and thought, “Why can’t I just stick to this?” this might help. For a long time, I thought my problem was willpower. Or motivation. Or discipline. But what I’ve learned is that a lot of “failed habits” aren’t about mindset at all. They’re about the nervous system. When your nervous system feels under pressure, unsafe, overwhelmed, or stretched too thin, it doesn’t care about your good intentions. It cares about survival. So even if you want to eat well, move your body, rest more, show up consistently… your system might be quietly pulling you back to what feels familiar and safe. Not because it’s best for you. But because it’s known. That’s why habits often fall apart when: - you’re stressed - you’re tired - you’re emotionally overloaded - you’re trying to do too much at once Your body goes into protection mode. And protection always beats plans. I see this in myself all the time. When I’m regulated and steady, habits feel simple. When I’m dysregulated, everything feels harder and I start asking myself what’s wrong with me. Nothing is wrong. My system just needs support before it can change. This is why pushing harder usually backfires. And why being kind to yourself actually helps habits stick. Small changes. Low pressure. Safety first. Not forcing. Not shaming. Not trying to overhaul your life when your system is already stretched. If you’ve been stuck in the stop–start cycle, it doesn’t mean you lack commitment. It usually means your nervous system hasn’t felt safe enough to stay consistent. And that’s something you can work with, gently. What habit keeps falling apart when you’re stressed? I share a lot of this kind of nervous-system-aware support inside The Sacred Pause. (I have just launched a course in there that will help with this). If this spoke to you, you’re very welcome to join us.
