October '23 Edition

colourful, creative
inspo comin’ in hot! 🌈✨

I want to start this email by acknowledging that the world feels very dark and heavy right now. My work and everything I do is always in hopes to bring joy to people’s lives. If you have the privilege to tune out for a moment or two, I hope this email can ever so slightly lighten some of the darkness right now.

I cannot even fathom that we are about to enter November and almost my fifth month in Bali.

After spending a long period at the beginning of my trip spending time alone, going on solo adventures and generally becoming comfortable in my solitude, there came a point where I was craving connection. Deep, heart-centred, genuine connections.

After visiting for day trips or weekends earlier in my trip, I knew there was something magical about Uluwatu. I followed my intuition back to the charming, calming, beachy vibes, to spend the rest of my trip here. After being here for only a couple of weeks I feel like I’ve found the most beautiful, genuine, inspiring community here.

The humans I’ve crossed paths with are from all over the world, with such contrasting life experiences. We’re all such different people, and you’d almost think that it wouldn’t work. But somehow it does. That’s because each of us are so unapologetically ourselves. We have all come to Bali because we’re searching for more in our lives. We want a place, a space and other humans to be our true selves with. We want to be the very best versions of ourselves.

Being around that energy day in day out in contagious. It’s so bloody inspiring.

Last year in May I got “True Self” tattooed on my arm. Back then it was something I was aspiring to be. 18 months on and I feel like I’ve arrived. The only thing certain in life is change. I will always keep evolving, but right now, I am pretty damn content.

I feel my most creative. I feel so inspired. I feel so much joy. I feel so so much gratitude.

Using this energy I’m cultivating in my life, and bringing it into my work has been game changing. I can’t tell you HOW MUCH things have been effortlessly flowing in my business and my work this year. This month I’ve wrapped up a few beautiful big projects and have just recently closed my books for 2023.

I’d love to make some magic with you in 2024 (I can’t believe I’m saying that.. aren’t we still in 2019!?). Please get in touch if you have something in mind for us to collaborate on.

Let's get into some colourful, creative goodness from this month! 💖
