In The Within, traces the quiet thread between Julian of Norwich, the medieval mystic who dared to speak of love in a time of fear, and her own modern ministry at the nail table.

Through churches, dreams, and the art of listening, The Nail Tech discovers that devotion doesn’t always wear a collar — sometimes it wears an apron and holds a brush.

What if vanity wasn’t a sin, but a homecoming?

In this episode of Diary of a Nail Tech, The Nail Tech revisits a life of ill-fitting choices — marriages, clothes, identities — and the moment, in a Lithuanian changing room, when everything finally aligned.

Through vintage fabrics, ghost songs, and sacred mirrors, she redefines vanity as devotion — and dressing as an act of remembering who you are.

In this episode of Diary of a Nail Tech, a reflection on twelve years behind the nail table — a temple of touch, a quiet apprenticeship in the art of listening.

Through stories, hands, and silence, The Nail Tech explores the hidden alchemy of the everyday — how polishing a nail can become prayer, and how true hearing begins beneath the noise.

In Marrakesh, amidst the noise of spice and scooters, The Nail Tech meets a toothless guide who mirrors twenty-five years of forgetting — and remembering.

What begins as a simple detour becomes a revelation about trust, direction, and the invisible maps we follow.

The Corner is a meditation on thresholds — the moments where we pause, hesitate, and find ourselves led astray, only to realise we were never truly lost.

It asks: how many times have we mistaken another’s guidance for our own intuition?

And what happens when, at last, we stop following — and start listening?

A story of illusion, redirection, and the quiet homecoming to one’s own compass.

The Coffee Lesson

In this entry, I explore the hidden lessons in the everyday — and how life sometimes shows up as a living allegory. Inspired by one of my favourite childhood stories, The Tiger Who Came to Tea, I share a personal journey of energy, devotion, and the quiet art of self-respect.

Through coffees, conversations, and the mirrors of another’s world, I learned what it truly means to pay attention — not just to others, but to myself. This is a story of boundaries, reciprocity, and the discipline of claiming your own worth.

Join me as I reflect on shadows, synchronicities, and the currency of lessons.

Who is the Tiger, really?

What happens when the past knocks — not to haunt you, but to free you? In The Gap Box, I return to the relics of my one true love, to the ache and the alchemy of remembering. This is my final coursework in devotion — and the beginning of a different kind of love story.

What if gossip was gospel? What if beauty work was prayer?

Diary of a Nail Tech: Sipping from My Own Goss-Spell reimagines the everyday ritual of the nail table as an altar of becoming — where silence speaks, stories soften, and the sacred hides beneath small talk.

From bitten nails to blind drawings, this is a journey of alchemy: turning shame into sovereignty, chatter into ceremony, and silence into song.
