Today on The Wildheart Diaries, we're continuing on with our series about your toxic puddle - the energy you live in. This episode is all about your physical space and how it looks when you're ignoring uncomfortable emotions like shame, guilt, anxiety, overwhelm and stuckness. Is it time to declutter and create more space for love and all that good stuff?

Today on The Wildheart Diaries, I'm talking about the power and complexities of the Mothership. Let's explore why for years, women lose themselves in their children and in mothering others, leaving themselves at the bottom of the pile (after the laundry and washing up). How is it that we think being a good mother is to run ourselves ragged taking care of others, when we don't even know how to fully love ourselves? I think it's time to reclaim this day and take back our power. Instead of waiting for people to celebrate and appreciate you, it's your time to focus on what makes you truly happy.

Everything you want from life is on the other side of loving yourself....MORE!

You’re NOT too sensitive, unlovable, unworthy or too much. It’s NOT that you’re failing when you don’t have time for self-care or things that make you happy. I bet you’re exhausted from trying though. It’s because nobody has ever shown you how to love and honour yourself…just as you are! It’s never too late to learn.

Today, on The Wildheart Diaries we're diving into your toxic puddle. Well, actually it's not something you want to dive in to. Your toxic puddle is the energy you live in and it impacts you and your life, perhaps more than you realise. It's a juicy one and as usual, there are lots of journal prompts to get you thinking. This is quite a big topic and is the first in a series of 5 episodes.

Today, on The Wildheart Diaries I'm feeling reflective as Valentine's Day comes around again. It's my birthday and so I want to celebrate us and acknowledge the importance of loving yourself. Do you put yourself first? Do you treat yourself in all the loving, thoughtful ways you love others? Do you let love in? Let's talk more about why loving others seems easier than loving your fabulous Wildheart self.

Today on The Wildheart Diaries I'm taking you on a walk with me across the stunning Surrey Hills as I share with you my daily journal practice and acknowledge the power of your pen. This has been an essential part of my healing  from C-PTSD and a great way to reconnect with yourself if you're overwhelmed by intrusive thoughts, anxiety and catastrophic thinking. If you want to set up a daily journaling practice, I hope this will inspire you and give you some food for thought.

Today, on The Wildheart Diaries I'm talking about other names for Wildhearts - like HSP, Empath, Intuitive and Indigo Child amongst others. If you missed the first part of this long chat about how the name Wildheart came to be and the specific personality traits and qualities of a Wildheart, listen here. Remember, nobody is defined by a check list. Humans are so much more nuanced than that. Please take what resonates and leave the rest.

Today, on The Wildheart Diaries I’m talking about starting all over again. I’m not a stranger to turning the page and freeing myself from situations that aren’t in alignment with my values. It’s not easy. It takes time, faith and Wildheart courage. It’s also overwhelming and scary. That’s why many of us stay stuck in toxic situation-ships and repeatedly do things which are no good for us. It’s better the devil you know, right?

To start this new adventure with you has felt like starting over again. I’m going to share that process with you – how I got here and why I had to let go of so much to create space for the new to come in. Letting go is not as easy as it sounds you know!
