Oh my goodness. I am in the middle of an existential wandering, figuring out who I am, my creative side trying to break free from all the rules and expectations of everyone else and my past and -yes- me. Trying to be a more present mother but head buzzing with ideas that I know will fly away if I don’t extricate myself from the tangle of little limbs to get to my notebook. Every word of this is exactly what I needed to read.
I wrote a note yesterday, with the line ‘you can only be what you can see’. Well my love, you are shining a light for all of us mothers and creators, whether established or finding a foothold. With my whole heart - thank you.
You’re so welcome. Thank you for such gorgeous writing! The quote is something that was a bit of a mantra among women in surgery, though my favourite was ‘do no harm, take no shit’. I’m based in Nottinghamshire, England, so a very long way from you, but honestly I read your writing and it’s like you’re seeing into the core of all my uncertainties and telling me to just sort it out, in a really nice way, and then showing me how!! 😂🥰
May I just say... this may have been the most freeing thing I've ever read because sometimes we need to hear it's us. Not noooo babe it's not youuuu etc etc. But it is me. And that's amazing because I can change it. Whew. Wings remembered. 🪽🪽🪽
This unlocked clarity for me, and enough space for my future vision to reach back and help me go forward.
What a beautiful reflection thank you.
