pregnancies end in loss. 🤍

If, like me, you’ve been there, please don’t hesitate to reach out to The Pink Elephants Support Network for counselling and other vital resources.

They’re there to help and they’re fantastic.

October is miscarriage and pregnancy loss awareness month. But I hope you can offer support to your bereaved loved ones, no matter the time of year.

Here’s an article I wrote about some of the ways you could approach condoling with a bereaved parent, including what to say and what to avoid. This, of course, is very personal and I understand may not resonate with everyone. So, please take what you will. I do hope it helps: https://lnkd.in/gpKq8tRF

It’s ok not to be ok, folks. You’re not alone. 💖

Fashion. Cocktails. And stellar company supporting local small business. What more could you ask for?

Glad I had my country chic dress from a shop next door (thanks, Tara! Willow & Spring Clothing) ready for the night.

And, uhem, a couple more items may have been purchased on the night! 🥰💖🌸

And of course, I found some stunning, quality wardrobe staples while my heart overflowed to be part of a gorgeous family affair. 🌸

Congratulations, Patsy & Del. Can’t wait for the next one! 💖

What an absolute joy it was to accompany Old Petrie Town small business local legend Sharon into the ABC Brisbane studios today, to speak to none other than Steve Austin! 🎙️

Having proudly produced Steve in the past, I knew Shaz was in safe hands.

And as a local lover of Old Petrie Town, this is certainly a yarn that’s close to my heart, and home.🏡

Folks, there is quite literally no other radio station that goes to the heart of their local communities the way the ABC does, and I am so proud to have played a tiny part in sharing Shaz’s story, as she so bravely lent her voice to support our community.

Stay tuned — it airs tomorrow! Steve’s on from 8:30AM. 🙏🏽

Go, Shazza, you good thing! ❤️👏🏽
