PROUD PARENTS 🤍

Super duper proud of us babe, 🥹 We had our rocky moments but we always learn of eachother, have been counselling eachother and always pull through when it comes to our children who stole our hearts 🤍

The past 3 months have been rocky but it was awesome being able to finally be with our children & spend some time with them today. Enjoying every moment with nothing but love, hugs, kōrero & smiles. It was like we had all seen eachother yesterday and the bond hadn’t changed one bit which overfilled my cup in the best way 🥰

Thank you mum and dad for your time & support. Always putting your moko first so they can enjoy the positive things in life giving them the best childhood 🤍 I hope I can rebuild our relationships while working through the mess together instead of apart for once 🤍

Day of achievement!!

Yesterday morning I woke up at war with myself. I yelled out a loud "f****cckkkk", grabbed my bottle & went to walk until the hatred within me left my mind, body & soul. I did a 20 minute walk, came home & apologised to my partner for yelling at our walls and asked him out to dinner xo

Because I still wasn’t feeling happy enough to carrying on with my morning yesterday…I decided to try something new. I learnt the tiktok dance I’ve been wanting to learn!! It took me about 30minutes to learn the 15 second dance let me tell you how much fun I had 😂🥰

I worked up a mild sweat in the morning sun, laughing & giggling at myself each time I’d do the wrong move or just go blank and awkwardly stare at myself like what tf am I doing 🤦🏽‍♀️🤣 Engaging in this activity helped me build up my confidence and loosen up my body to help it feel more free xo

Reflecting on my journey of growth and self-discovery, I’m proud of how far I’ve come, because I’m starting to see light more and less darkness. It hasn’t always been easy, but I’ve learned from my mistakes, embraced my imperfections, and found strength in the positives. Through it all, I’ve learned to love and accept myself for who I am & grow daily. Also couldn’t have done it without the support on my platforms as well as in person. People become more kinder and happier when you’re looking and feeling good about you 🤍💜

Through accepting my past and facing my mental health head-on, I have found a newfound love for myself and who I am becoming. It’s comforting to know that I am stronger than my struggles and am grateful for the journey that has led me to this place of healing and self-love.

Taking a morning walk before the sun rises or before it sets has become a vital part of my mental health journey. The quiet stillness of those moments allows me to reflect on the past, present, and future with a sense of peace and clarity. The gentle exercise and fresh air invigorate my body and mind, uplifting my mood and providing a much-needed energy boost for the day ahead or a calming wind-down for the evening. These walks have become my grounding ritual, reminding me to stay present, appreciate the beauty around me, and connect with my inner strength.

Reflecting back 5 years to now, I realized the changes my body underwent 🌹

Its been a long journey of acceptance and learning to love my body for all it has done. I understood the importance of staying active and healthy not just for physical appearance, but for overall well-being.

Overtime I came to the realization that true wealth lies in having a healthy body, a happy heart, and a positive mindset. By nourishing my body with nutritious food, engaging in regular exercise, and practicing self-care, I am investing in my health and future wealth.

This year I will learn, grow & love highly while sharing my journey, remembering is not just about physical transformation, but about self-love and acceptance of anything & everything. It is about embracing the changes my body has gone through and being grateful for all that it can do.

By prioritizing my health and well-being, I am empowering myself of its worth, confidence & overall nature just as much as anyone else reading this to live a fulfilling and abundant life 🌹

Embrace acceptance and a positive mindset to clear your mental hard drive, making space for more wellness, joy, and abundance in your life 🤍

As a person who’s suffered/ still suffering from mental health I can be very honest it’s not easy in this day and age but with a little time, commitment and motivation towards yourself today, you’ll be thanking yourself tomorrow. This is your reminder to free yourself of mental, physical, emotional & spiritual slavery, it’s takes time and effort and will not be handed on a silver platter!

You have to want it & go do it to earn it. You have to consistently show up for yourself whether you want to or not, remember you’re stronger than you think even when allowing negative thoughts, self-doubts & past trauma into your present.

Be real with you, speak your truth & testify against the doubts and fears that hold you back, while also testifying for the power, worth, and acceptance that reside within you. Welcome the journey of self-discovery and self-empowerment, for in honoring your own voice, you will find the strength to grow, the value of self-worth, and true acceptance of yourself 🤍

We enjoyed having a laugh together while we did the lawns & drinking some adult juice from .nz 😚😌

Did our groceries at for our detox week since we’ve been breaking our alkaline plant based diet our the holidays 🥴🤣

Exercise has helped me so much to stay focused on a daily basis but yesterday I broke down at my current life situation and needed some extra motivation to help reach my goals this year 💜

It took me about an hour to regain myself after I broke down crying while driving and pulled over. I reminded myself that it wasn’t forever & things get better if I do something about.

That afternoon while trying to get some work & planning done I then realised…f**k, I actually got alot on my plate this year so I decided to create a vision board for 2024 to keep me motivated and inspired daily for the things I need and want for this year 💜

So far I’m obsessed with it & it’s helped make my year look a lot more simple & less overwhelming for a mum with BPD. I’m literally executing my vision board / goals as I speak so for that I’m more than proud for making my steps to success and less stress 💜
