Discovering Who I am
Welcome, thank you for taking time to browse.
After writing almost 200 blogs over 7 years I realised how much support there was here & how hard it was for readers to find what they most needed.
I’ve therefore created a number of pages where you can find blogs about different topics.
You can dig deeper under the ‘search the blogs’ menu option.
In March 2022 I tweaked my website so I’m no longer specifically supporting childless women.
I have realized that my path is ‘to discover who I am at the deepest level, to find my natural alignment, feel it & follow that feeling.’
I don’t have the answers, but I am keen to explore questions such as ‘Who am I, what do I want, what’s my purpose, what’s important to me, & how do I want to spend my time?
The way ahead feels like an exciting partly completed canvas; there are features (such as yoga, creativity, travel, time with family & friends) & I’m excited to fill in the gaps, exploring each contour of my life, my body, knowing that there will be dead ends, U-turns &, if it’s like the past few years, more joy (& challenges) than I ever thought possible.

You can read the blogs I’ve written about discovering who I am below, some of which were written before I made the changes.
There’s obviously a cross over between the different subjects,
You can also use the search blog menu option to dig deeper.
And there’s more in my book, Finding Joy Beyond Childlessness.
