For a very long time I have dreamed of creating my own bowls and cups. It has taken a few years for me to be in one place to do the entire process from creation to glazing.

Seeing them finished and better than what I had ever expected was so incredibly worth it.

For me I love things that arent perfect that have character and depth. This is what I feel for my creations and I am proud of myself for working through my perfectionism to allow them to be created.

I am so grateful to the wonderful volunteers at Mission Arts Pottery who give so much time and energy for it to run so magnificently and also for their guidance and support. Its such a wonderful community and I am very much looking forward to next year when we return 🫶

It only takes a conversation, a 30min exercise, a hug, another moment to change the way you feel.

Dont let shame/guilt/anger/frustration stop you from reaching out for connection/help/support/guidance especially when it can make you help a better decision for yourself and those around you.

A few weeks I was overwhelmed with a parenting situation and it felt like I would drown in it. I knew if I kept interacting with my loved ones with the same mindset/thoughts/reactiveness it was going to get worse.

I needed someone elses perspective that didn’t come from someone I love so I googled parent counselling and got a all hours hotline with the intention of talking to someone open and who could support me. I found Jackie who held such beautiful space as she listened and asked questions, the good kind that got me out of my tiny perspective bubble and to see the overall picture. She also taught me about Shadow Values which was something I hadnt come across even when doing shadow work.

It helped me understand mine and my childs shadow values and how to navigate them better. She helped me see that I am actually a great mum and I have come so far from who I used to be.

That 45min call completly changed my mindset and thought pattern for the better which has continued to positively ripple even now.

In the situation I was ashamed of my actions because I knew better, I felt guilty because I didnt change what I knew needed changing and I felt anger because I felt I was doing my best in a situation and it wasnt good enough (to me) the pressure we place on ourselves can be suffocating.

I share because it might just be a reminder for another to reach out regardless of how you are feeling in the hopes that it will support you until you can reach higher ground and not feeling like you are drowning. I’m also not just talking about parenting, this could be in any situation.

As emotion is just a feeling in motion and it ebbs and flows so its ok to get a helping hand when it feels too much.

Hey beautiful people,

Our daughter Brook is an avid entrepreneur and is keen to grow her business. She loves creating and making beautiufl, colourful, fun and high vibing bracelets - her new FB page is Brook’s Crafty Creations

She started as one of her cousins inspired her and now she is focused on giving it a good hot go.

She is making them as we travel around Australia or should I say 3/4 however we can post to anywhere. You can check out our travelling page Where the Wildlings Go.

She would love your support by giving her a page a like and if you know of someone who would love to buy one or many, stock them or share them please let me know.

This journey of watching Brook learning on how to start and grow a business has been incredible as she is a go getter. We did a little product photo shoot this morning on the beach at Wongaling, where she had so much fun helping Nathan Pike get the sticks for the prop and then setting it up.

Funny story we went to Kuranda Roots Festival earlier this year which is where Brookie really started focusing on selling Bracelets.

The people were absolutely wonderful and by the end of the weekend many knew her name and came up to buy them from her as sometimes they didnt have money on them, so the when they did they sought her out and brought some. (She grew the know/like/trust pretty quick especially with her wit and wildness)

She is a great little saleswoman, who in the end had kids who wanted to sell them for her. Brook paid them a % and everyone was happy.

It was inspiring to see how easeful it was for her and gives me so much hope for her having an incredible life living by her terms and knowing early that anything is possible if you learn and put in the effort.

I am looking forward to seeing what unfolds for her. X

This morning, after Flynn's usual multiple wake-ups during the night and his not so usual 4:00 am ready to start the day attitude 🤪, the girls and I got up at 5am for an ice bath & breath work session.

I did not feel like it—I was frustrated, tired, and a wee bit cranky. When we got there, I thought, "Nope, not feeling it," but knowing it’s all mental, I knew I only had to get past the edge of resistance and I did. The girls were incredible and powered in & through they inspire me greatly.

Wait until you hear how long they both stayed in for!

Later today, the girls and I will share our experiences and why they love doing it. Kids don’t usually do ice baths, but we always give our kids the option, and the girls jump in every time. It’s such a powerful lesson that will last them a lifetime.

Who else has done ice baths? What was your experience?
