Ummmm huge YES to a 2016 throwback because I made some big, brave decisions in 2016 that genuinely shifted the tectonic plates of my life and business.
In January 2016 I left Perth and drove across Australia to move to London, which became my home for nearly the next decade.
I typed up my Adore Your Cycle eBook while driving across the Nullarbor (yes, really), before celebrating my parent’s 60th birthdays with the coolest dress up party ever ☮️
Fuelled by what felt like an inner wildfire to share the work I’d been doing with clients, I taught Adore Your Cycle workshops in Melbourne, Sydney, Albury, London and then Paris… at a time when very few women were even talking about menstrual cycles, let alone “adoring” them ❤️
Lacey and I attended the Hay House writer’s workshop ft. Julia Cameron (!!) and I wrote a book proposal that led to my first book being published a few years later.
I fell completely in love with the charms of London. I turned 30. I took my camera with me everywhere I went. I got the moon and wild woman archetype tattooed into my skin and crossed the threshold from Maiden to Mother, birthing a new life, a new body of work and the next era of my business.
And… I was also learning about relationships. About my needs. About what I would and would not tolerate.
My friendships in London became my chosen family, the people who are still at the top of my WhatsApps every single day. We cycled across a v quiet London on Christmas Day 2016, my first London winter; a season that taught me to love the cold and the dark as much as I love the sun.
I love 2016 me. I am honestly in awe of her courage 😍
I know how scared she was about moving across the world, about whether her business would support her, about whether people would really be that into all this period talk she couldn’t shut up about. (Spoiler alert: they were lol)
But she did it anyway.
And she led me here! To the man I love, the work I adore, the friendships I cherish and a relationship with my body, cycle and creativity that continues to feel like the greatest gift from God.
May 2026 feel just as colourful, as possible and as SWEET 🍯 (
