“When we tune out the opinions, expectations and obligations of the world around us, we begin to hear ourselves.” – Jay Shetty

How true is this statement?

The answers we often seek as mothers are already within us. The challenge is that the world has conditioned us to look outside ourselves for reassurance, advice and approval—sometimes at the expense of our own intuition.

Trusting our innate, instinctive inner compass is one of our greatest superpowers as mothers. When something doesn’t feel right or sits uneasily within our body, those feelings are often gentle clues inviting us to pause, reflect, listen more deeply and become curious about what they’re trying to tell us.

When you learn to trust your gut instinct, your inner wisdom, your emotions and that quiet knowing within, you strengthen your self-awareness and confidence. From this place, you’re better able to make grounded decisions that are aligned with what is right for your child, your family and your values—not simply what the outside world expects.

One of the most powerful ways to strengthen this connection is through a daily mindfulness or meditation practice. It creates the space to quiet the noise of the outside world and the constant chatter of the mind, allowing you to reconnect with yourself. In that stillness, clarity often emerges, and the answers you’re searching for have room to surface.

I’d love to hear from you…

When have you trusted your motherly instincts over the opinions or expectations of the outside world?

What are you doing to create the life you desire? 💫 I have consciously and intentionally recalibrated my nervous system to live life from a state of peace, joy, love and happiness. It is such an amazing feeling to live life from this space of CHOOSING me and how I show up in this world.

There Will Be Times When You Feel Like an Alien to Your Daughter… and She Will Feel Like One to You 🫣

It can feel confusing.

One moment you’re close, and the next it seems like you’re speaking completely different languages.

As her Mum, your instincts naturally lean towards protecting her.

You want to keep her safe.
To protect her from mistakes.
To shield her from hurt.
To nurture, guide and love her in the best way you know how.

These instincts aren’t wrong.
They’re part of who you are.

But as your daughter grows, something equally important is happening for her.

She begins seeking space.

Space to discover who she is beyond the family unit.
Space to make her own decisions.
Space to test her strengths.
Space to learn from her experiences.
Space to be trusted.

She’s quietly saying,
“Please believe that I can do this.”

From your perspective, it may feel like you’re losing your daughter.

She may seem distant.
She may pull away.
Family conversations may become tense.
You might wonder why everything suddenly feels harder than it used to.

Yet, much of this is a natural part of adolescence.

The push-pull between connection and independence is often how young people begin discovering who they are.

Your daughter isn’t necessarily rejecting you.

More often, she’s learning how to become herself.

Your role begins to gently shift—from protecting every step she takes, to becoming a safe, steady place she knows she can always return to.

That doesn’t mean stepping away completely.

It means learning when to hold on, and when to loosen your grip with love.

This transition isn’t always easy for either of you.

But when you understand what’s happening beneath the behaviour, it becomes easier to respond with connection instead of fear.

“Can you relate to this season of motherhood? I’d love to hear what’s been most challenging—or most surprising-for you.” 💗

“What have you learned about someone’s life simply because you were curious enough to ask one more question?” 🤩

The Power of Curiosity...

On my recent barge trip to the island, I found myself chatting with a few fellow passengers and local islanders.

One woman asked me, “What’s your connection to the island?”

Wanting to understand what she was really asking, I reflected the question back to her.

“Do you mean what brought me here?”

“Yes,” she replied, “what drew you to the island?”

What followed was a story neither of us expected.

I shared how my partner came home unexpectedly one weekday, asked if I could spare a few hours, took me across to look at a house, and before I knew it, he was shaking hands with the homeowner and buying it.

She laughed and said it was one of the best stories she’d heard about how someone ended up on the island.

But what struck me wasn’t the story itself.

It was the curiosity behind the question.

Because she was genuinely interested, the conversation moved beyond small talk.

It opened the door to learning about her story, her connection to the island, and another gentleman’s role in helping establish the original barge service back in 1996.

What started as a simple question became a rich exchange of stories, experiences, and human connection.
It reminded me that some of the most meaningful conversations begin when we’re willing to move beyond surface-level questions and become genuinely curious about another person’s journey.

Every person has a story.

Every story has wisdom.

And often, all it takes is one thoughtful question to uncover it.

So I’m curious...

• What’s a question you love asking people that helps you get beyond small talk?

Or

• What’s a question someone has asked you that led to a memorable conversation?
