On 10th April, I wrote a post that began: “I should be on a plane to Bali right now.”

But I wasn’t. I’d cancelled my retreat.

I wrote about the shame, guilt and questioning that came with changing my mind and the realisation that it’s okay to admit the path you chose isn’t the right path at this particular moment.

What I didn’t know then was what would happen when I stopped trying to control what happened next. Because last year, if I’m honest, there was a lot more grip.
How do I fill the retreat?
Where do I find the people?
What should I post?
What else should I be doing?

That subtle urgency that says if I don’t make this happen, it won’t.

So this time, I leaned into trust. Not the passive, sit-on-the-sofa-and-wait-for-the-Universe kind of trust.

I still did the work. I meditated, breathed, got really clear on who I am, what I stand for and where I’m going and I kept showing up.
But I loosened my grip on the outcome. I stopped trying to engineer opportunities and allowed myself to have genuine, curious, no-agenda conversations.

And something shifted.

People started messaging me out of the blue. Some said that April post had really resonated, whilst others simply asked, “Are you doing Bali again?”

By 10th June, exactly two months later, all but one of the spaces on next year’s Bali Bliss Retreat had been filled. And now there is one space left.

But this isn’t really a “come and buy the last space” post. It’s about what this experience has taught me.

Trust doesn’t mean doing nothing. It means doing your part without believing you have to control every part.

And maybe trust isn’t believing everything will work out exactly as you planned. Maybe it’s trusting yourself enough to know you’ll be okay when it doesn’t.

It’s moving from “How am I going to make this happen?” to “What is mine to do, and what can I allow?”

You know, open hands receive far more easily than clenched ones. And I’m learning to unclench mine.

You can read my latest blog on my website, where I explore why we forget to breath fully, how our breath can enable us to find clarity, create space and reconnect our mind with our body.

I also explain what to expect at one of my conscious connected breathwork sessions and the science behind breathwork.

Fancy a read? I’ve popped the link in the comments.

I’d love to know where you’ve noticed you’re ’holding your breath’ in your day.

What keeps you motivated?

Receiving positive feedback from my clients is definitely a great motivator for me. It tells me that I’m on the right track and that I’m serving my clients in a way that supports them.

Breathwork is my passion. I get such a kick from showing participants the power of their breath and guiding them through participative, active breath, to deeply restorative and releasing meditative breath.

If you want to try it out, then comment ‘breath’ and I’ll send you details of my next session ✨

Hello there

I haven’t done this for a loooong while and I have a few more followers, so I thought I’d properly re-introduce myself.

I’m Sandra, your Clarity Coach and award winning International Retreat Leader.

I help capable men and women, who often look like they’re doing really well on the outside, but privately feel stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected from themselves or frustrated that they keep getting in their own way.

My work is about helping you see what you can’t see, as so often, the thing holding us back isn’t a lack of ambition, intelligence or effort. It’s the hidden patterns, the pressure we’ve normalised, the beliefs running quietly in the background, the people-pleasing, the perfectionism, our nervous system living on high alert and the version of ourselves we’ve outgrown but keep trying to squeeze back into.

Through my Clarity Audits, group and 121 Coaching, Breathwork, Reiki, Human Design work and Blissful Retreats, I help people come back to themselves with more clarity, confidence and ease.

The best part of what I do?

Seeing someone go from, “I know I’m ready for change, but I don’t know where to start,” to, “Now I can see exactly what’s been holding me back.”

That moment when the fog lifts and the invisible becomes visible. When they stop blaming themselves and start understanding themselves. That’s the work I love.

So, a little bit about me…

I am a Wife, Mum, Sister, Cat Slave, Friend - family and friendship is everything to me

My core values are Connection, Satisfaction and Ease, and they run through everything I create.

I love deep conversations, laughter, simple truths, a good Espresso Martini, beautiful retreat spaces, having fun, nervous system regulation, energy work, and helping people come home to who they really are.

I believe transformation doesn’t have to be dramatic to be powerful.

I’m an Emotional Generator with a 2/4 profile (IYKYK)

So, if you’ve been here for a while, thank you.

And if you’re new here, welcome and thank you for reading this.

And finally, something not many people know about me…….I was known as ‘The Singing Barmaid’ back in the ‘90s.

Is there something about you that not many people would know?

One of my largest clients recently went into liquidation, which resulted in a huge loss of my consistent revenue stream.

And I noticed my first response almost immediately.
I did not stop.
I did not pause.
I did not give myself much time to absorb it.

My mind went straight into:
How do I replace this?
What do I need to offer?
What should I be doing next?
Should I work harder?
Should I be doing more?

And on the surface, that might look sensible.
Responsible, even.

But underneath it, I could feel something else starting to creep in.
Scarcity.
Pressure.
The belief that I needed to solve everything quickly.

And that is where many business owners get caught.

Because pressure does not always look like panic.
Sometimes it looks like productivity.
Sometimes it looks like being proactive.
Sometimes it looks like making plans, filling gaps, chasing leads, creating offers and trying to hold the whole thing together.

But clarity rarely comes from gripping harder.
When we are under pressure, we can lose access to the very things we need most:
Perspective.
Creativity.
Discernment.
Connection.
The ability to receive support.
The ability to see what is genuinely ours to carry.

There is a difference between taking responsibility and carrying over-responsibility.

Responsibility says:
“This needs my attention.”

Over-responsibility says:
“This is all mine to fix, and I need to fix it now.”

And that distinction matters, because the energy you make decisions from will shape the decisions you make.

Urgency creates noise.
Clarity creates direction.

So if you are in a season where things feel uncertain, instead of asking, “How do I solve everything immediately?” try asking:

What is actually true right now?
What am I predicting, assuming or trying to control?
What is the next clear step?

Not the whole plan. And certainly not the perfect answer.

Just the next honest and useful step.

Sometimes that is the most powerful place to begin.

It’s arrived! I found out in May that I had won an award. And my trophy has finally arrived!

So this is my little proud moment…

I’ve received the SME UK Enterprise Awards 2026 for:

“Excellence in Transformational Healing Sessions and Retreats 2026”

This feels super special, because this isn’t just about an award.

It’s about every breathwork session where someone has finally let go.

Every retreat where someone has remembered who they are.

Every coaching conversation where the fog has lifted.

Every Reiki session, workshop, circle and moment of transformation where someone has come back to themselves.

This work means so much to me, and to have it recognised in this way feels like a beautiful pause point.

A moment to breathe it in and a moment to say a huge thank you.

So, to every client, retreat guest, friend, supporter and beautiful human who has trusted me with their healing, growth and transformation….. I thank you.

Here’s to more clarity, connection, ease, expansion and coming home to ourselves.

And, I’d love to know what you’re proud of today?

06/05/2026

I’m so honoured to share that I’ve received the UK Enterprise Award for Excellence in Transformational Healing Sessions and Retreats 2026.

And whilst it feels wonderful to be recognised, what really touches me is what this award represents.
It represents the work.

The breathwork sessions where people finally allow themselves to exhale.

The Reiki and energy healing spaces where the nervous system softens.

The coaching conversations where old patterns are seen clearly.

The retreats where people step away from the noise and remember who they are.

The moments when someone realises they are not broken, not behind, not too much, not too late. They are simply ready to come back to themselves.

This work is never about “fixing” people.

It’s about creating safe, grounded, transformational spaces where people can release what no longer serves them, reconnect with their own energy, and begin to trust themselves again.

So for anyone who has been thinking about coming to a session, joining a workshop, working with me, or stepping into a retreat, I hope this gives you reassurance.

You will be held.
You will be supported.
You will be gently challenged.
And you will be met exactly where you are.

Thank you to every client, participant and beautiful human who has trusted me in this work.

This award means the world.

Here’s to more healing, more alignment, more expansion, and more people becoming their most authentic, ‘you-i-est’ selves.

Who’s joining me for some restorative breathwork at this Wednesday?

In this structured and guided session, there’s no pressure to perform. Just you, your breath, and a powerful method that helps your body release what your mind has been carrying.

Why Breathwork?
Your breath is one of the fastest ways to shift your internal state. Conscious Connected Breathwork can help you:
✨ Calm anxiety and overwhelm
✨ Switch off fight-or-flight and soothe your nervous system
✨ Release pressure and stored tension (mental, emotional, physical)
✨ Quiet the overthinking and mental noise
✨ Improve sleep, energy, and clarity
✨ Feel more connected to yourself, not just functional

You don’t need experience. You don’t need to be “good” at this. You just need to show up as you are.

Comment ‘Breathe’ and I’ll send you the link to secure your spot xx

I should be on a plane right now, on my way to host another beautiful Bali Bliss Retreat.

Instead, I’m here, reflecting on a decision that felt hard to make, but deeply right.

I postponed Bali Bliss until May 2027.

Not because I don’t believe in it.
Not because I don’t love it.
But because the way I was moving with it felt heavy.

And that mattered.

My values are ease, connection and satisfaction. But marketing the retreat felt hard. I wasn’t connecting with my message in the way I wanted to. I felt resistance in speaking about it, inconsistency in how I showed up, and underneath it all, I knew something was off.

But I kept going.

Because people had booked.
Because I didn’t want to let anyone down.
Because there was guilt.
And, if I’m honest, shame around changing course and what that might mean.

Then I gave myself space to really listen.

I reflected, had honest conversations with the women who had booked, and made the decision to postpone. They were fully supportive.

And the moment I did, I felt lighter.
Freer.
Clearer.
More focused.

Since then, over half the spaces for Bali Bliss 2027 have been filled through easeful, flowing conversations.

No force.
No push.
Just alignment.

Such a reminder that when something doesn’t feel right, it’s OK to pause.
It’s OK to adjust.
It’s OK to choose a different way.

That isn’t failure.
That’s self-trust.

And often, when we stop forcing and start listening, the most beautiful things unfold.

If this resonates, I’d love to hear from you. And if Bali is calling then message me. There are now just 3 spaces left.
