My Beaker Street Wine Sensory tasting at Frank Restaurant and Bar was so much fun, I’m going to do it all again on Saturday with another Sold Out session!
Suspend your ideas on what you think you should be smelling and tasting and lean into your own wine story. All those memories, emotions, places and faces, your brain has been collecting them quietly in the background, what will the next chapters bring?

This was in my letterbox. Starting conversations about mental health can be tricky and feel awkward but they are so important.
My Complex PTSD is something that I will always carry and I am fortunate to have good friends and an excellent psych.
Whoever left this, thank you and I am good. I’m taking small, slow, purposeful steps to manage it.
If anyone doesn’t have an awesome therapist or a mental health plan, use these details, make that call. CPTSD is like your shadow, it is always there but shouldn’t really spook you on a daily basis.
