    3 Signs You Might Need Better Boundaries (and One Gentle Way to Start)

    14/05/2025 - By aimee

    Boundaries are not ultimatums or walls. They are loving lines we draw to honour our energy, time, and needs—so we can show up for life with clarity instead of resentment. Yet for many of us, especially women raised to care for others first, boundaries can feel like a betrayal. The truth is: setting boundaries isn’t selfish. It’s essential. Here are three signs you might need stronger boundaries—and one gentle step you can take today to begin. 1. You’re constantly tired, even when you’re not doing much Fatigue isn’t always physical. Emotional labour—the unspoken work of managing others’ comfort, expectations, and…

    How to Gently Integrate Self-Care into a Life That Feels Too Full

    12/05/2025 - By aimee

    Let’s be honest. When you’re holding so much together—your inbox, your team, your family, your inner world—hearing “just take care of yourself” can feel like one more thing to manage. You don’t need another perfect morning routine.You need space.You need support that meets you where you are. You need a kind way to come back to yourself. 🌙 What If Self-Care Wasn’t Another Task… But a Shift in Rhythm? The kind of self-care I believe in doesn’t start with productivity.It starts with permission. Not permission to do more.Permission to pause.To listen.To be where you are without guilt. And it doesn’t…

    11/03/2025 - By aimee

    Dealing with Grief: Finding Your Way Through Loss

    04/03/2025 - By aimee

    Grief is a deeply personal and often overwhelming experience. Whether you’re mourning the loss of a loved one, the end of a relationship, or another significant life change, it’s important to honor your emotions and give yourself space to heal. There’s no right or wrong way to navigate grief, and it doesn’t follow a straight path. But taking small, intentional steps toward self-care can help you move through the pain with more ease and support. Seeking Support from a Counsellor Talking to someone who understands can make all the difference. A counsellor provides a safe and non-judgmental space where you…

    Threads of Hope

    30/01/2025 - By Jyo Maan

    A snail moves slow, yet never lost,Carrying home at any cost.Through storm and sun, it climbs, it glides,A lesson in hope where patience abides. The lion roars, fierce and bright,A beacon of strength in darkest night.Not alone, but with her pride,She stands in power, side by side. An elephant walks, wise and grand,With stories etched in wrinkled hands.Through trials deep, through rivers wide,She never leaves her kin behind. The owl watches, silent, still,With eyes that pierce the midnight chill.She sees beyond, she trusts the way,That dawn must rise from even gray. A mouse, so small, yet bold of heart,Knows even…

    I linger..

    22/01/2025 - By Jyo Maan

    I linger in the forest, threading pine needles, silently listening to the song of the night lark in the peaking moonlight. I pass by my sorrows, the deep wells of grief.  Breathing in. Embracing the biting cold winter air on my bare face and icy fingers. I have no map, I have no compass, but the whispered wisdom of the earth that holds me. I am movement, life and death, stardust, wind, water, dirt, I am fire and spirit. I need not be everything or anything right now. I linger.  – Aimee Fenech Jan 14, 2025

    Welcome to Day 14 of our self-care advent calendar! Today, we invite you to embrace the sheer joy of movement with a mini dance party. There’s something magical about turning up the music and letting your body groove that can instantly lift your spirits and bring a smile to your face.
