The Messina Movement

Beneath Rumination.

On what preoccupation with trying to understand other people’s choices, behaviours, and actions might be keeping you from discovering.

The deeper questions:

Not “Who are they?”
But “Who did I become in order to keep that relationship alive?” And “Who is the person inside that I know, love, and lost connection to along the way?”

What would it look like to drop the focus on them?
What might keeping the focus on them, be protecting me from?
What would I lose?
What would I gain?
Who am I with this and without this rumination?

Try it on. Tell me about it.

Some people struggle to find motivation.
Others struggle to stop.

What if there’s more to discover about yourself beyond what you do?

What might you uncover if you slowed down long enough to get to know yourself outside of producing?

If you caught Episode 6 of The County, you may have spotted a familiar space. 👀

There’s a new / show featuring three of my incredibly talented friends — and .smeeth — alongside producer . I’ve loved watching not only the beautiful design work unfold, but also seeing how intentionally they’ve highlighted so many small businesses throughout The County.

I was honoured to be one of them. ✨

Our home and The Messina Movement Studio were featured, but my favourite part of this whole experience happened behind the scenes.

Because renovations are hard on everyone involved… even the designers.

As pressure mounted and long days started adding up, Sarah was feeling the stress build. Kate and Jo knew they all needed a pause — a place to land, breathe, reconnect, and come back to themselves. So they stepped away from the timelines and to-do lists and came here to recalibrate with me at The Messina Movement Studio.

It felt like such a beautiful reminder that even the people creating beautiful spaces need space too.

And if you’re following along with the show, Episode 8 airs tomorrow (Friday) at 8 PM on live 🎉.

So much gratitude to this crew for including us in this experience and for continuing to shine a light on local businesses and community. ❤️
