2026 is the year i put myself back together.
Physically and figuratively.
The last 5 years have taken a massive toll.
First 2 years of the most harsh lockdown in the world and then at the same time, a diagnosis of one of our 5 children with a rare and extremely aggressive leukaemia.
3 years of utterly brutal chemo followed- it changed our kid (still so many massive physical conditions to figure out and of course the psycho/emotional fallout will continue probs forever).
It took a toll on all of us. Guy looked after the immediate needs of Auggie, living in hospital for the 3 years of treatment.
I stayed living at the farm and managing the farm, my business and the 4 other kids.
It is now a couple of years post treatment. and we can finally breathe out- our kid is cancer free (6 weekly blood tests and hospital visits for the rest of their life and the management now of all the effects of chemo…… but CANCER FREE!!!!).
It wasn’t until this 2 year reprieve that I felt i could breathe.
And on the exhale i literally collapsed…… i had been hiding the debilitating pain of my knees for years- surgeon said they were as bad as possibly could be.
So this year I am having both total knee replacements done- and also working on all aspects of my own spiritual and physical recovery.
This is a montage of a nearly 60yo woman who is working on STRENGTH- both physical and metaphysical.
This is a real bod of a real person who is really strong and working on wellbeing over looks.
Instagram will serve you recipes with Protein in their name to hook you in, it will serve you anti-aging creams on 20yo’s to tease you.
I have never ever stepped i to a beautician, I have never had a facial or any other treatment’ - i dont understand that stuff …..and ew other ppl touching me …..
I am here to influence you to SEE real ageing, real wrinkles, real curves.
My account has always been about honesty and integrity. I have never chased numbers or had a strategy…..
ffs who has the time?!!!
So despite the fact you wont see too much ceramics here this year- I will still be here showing up as me……..
Thanks for being here.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
