The "unhealthy empath habits" that actually mean you've got healing to do; full info πŸ‘‡

You've probably called it being "just an introvert." Or "not really a people person." Or "I just prefer my own space."

But if you've stopped making plans. If you've quietly decided you just don't really like people anymore, and it's easier to stay home than deal with them. If you've built a whole life around avoiding other humans because you find them draining, exhausting, too much β€” and you've started to believe that's just who you are…

That's not who you are. That's what happened to you.

Right now, you're holding so much trauma in your energy that your system is doing exactly what it's designed to do β€” scanning for danger, bracing for the next drain, treating people as a threat before they've even done anything. With enough healing, that same system stops looking for danger and starts looking for connection. It starts drawing in the people who are actually meant for you β€” the ones who lift you up, who make you feel safe, who make you one of their own.

You're not hitting a fraction of your potential while you're still hiding from your own community.

Because you were never meant to spend your life retreating from people. You were meant to take up space in the room. You were meant to be seen. You were meant to be followed. That's part of your spiritual purpose β€” to stop being unseen, to stop being unrecognised, and finally be found by the people who were always looking for you too. Because there's a whole generation coming up behind you who need to see you do it first.

You've been lied to about what "meek" means β€” full lesson in caption πŸ‘‡

You've spent your whole life being the "good girl." The one who doesn't make a fuss. Who swallows what she really wants to say, because somewhere along the line you learned that being meek β€” being quiet, being small β€” was the spiritual thing to do.

You've been carrying that as gospel. Literally.

Here's what nobody told you: the original Greek word behind "meek" doesn't mean weak, or silent, or small. It means to lay down your sword.

Read that again. Not "you have no sword." Not "you were never given one." You have one. You always have. Meek is a warrior who knows exactly what she's capable of, and chooses β€” carefully, consciously β€” when to use it and when not to.

That changes everything, doesn't it? Because that guilt you carry every time you finally do say something, set a boundary, ask for what you need β€” that's not you being "too much." That's you picking the sword back up, exactly when you were supposed to.

You were never meant to stay quiet forever. You were meant to know your own power well enough to choose.

DM me the word EMPOWERED and I'll send you the full training this came from.

04/09/2026

My kids went back to school this week. And I am so proud of all three of them I could burst my bra!
-
Dylan has started back at his brilliant new school β€” the place I had to fight for. And I mean fight. Honestly, he wouldn't have his place if it wasn't for Liz Jarvis MP, my local MP, who helped us massively when it mattered most. I'll never forget that. Seeing him settle in now, seeing it actually working β€” every bit of that battle was worth it.
-
And the girls. Both a big step, but Alice especially. She's going up to secondary now. It's one thing having autism and negotiating junior school. It's another thing entirely having autism at the level Alice does β€” high-masking, high-anxiety β€” and having to successfully negotiate not just teenagers, but secondary school on top. What she's doing takes a kind of courage most people will never have to find.
-
So yeah. Proud doesn't even cover it!
-
But I had a stark reminder on back to school day of a time gone by; and one that could easily still be in my future.
-
At drop-off there was a boy β€” clearly autistic, headphones on, screaming his heart out and banging on a car window, desperate to be let back into his mum's car. And a teacher gently, but pretty desperately, trying to coax him back into school. He looked about year six. Probably around my height and a bigger build than me. And I want you to really sit with what that mum was carrying in that moment. I didn't see her face, but I could imagine how heavy her heart was. How cruel she felt. How she knew he wouldn't recover from this incident for days. And that everyday was a re-injury. Guilt, guilt, guilt. Including guilt over needing a day off.
-
How she also held fear; fear that the school and the council could conspire to prosecute and fine her. Families that are already on the bread line. Fear of judgement from parents who just don't understand.
-
Because for all the photos we all put up β€” and I've put mine up too β€” we should all be really aware that this day is, for so many kids, with the parents right there alongside them, absolutely the worst day of the year.
-
The school holidays do nothing but change their routine. And for a neurodivergent child, just that routine change is enough. (the beginning of the holidays are never fun either, but at least you don't have the stress of school). Never mind all the non-negotiables and the uncontrollables that go on for a child in a mainstream environment every single day.
-
Ask around. Most people I speak to say their own schooling didn't suit them β€” that it didn't work for them, didn't educate them for the work they ended up in, that they wanted to be outside or doing something physical, that it didn't create a confident teenager in anyway etc etc etc. If that's true for that many of us, then it's not that hard to have compassion for parents of children with 'school refusal'.
-
Because even at the well-meaning schools, the long-term damage done to children like this β€” even just from a confidence point of view β€” can be irrecoverable.
-
Don't forget that we're trying to produce kids that can function well as adults in a society where it's harder and harder to get a job with automation and AI. I'm sure you know yourself that you are having to do more work whether you're ringing your own goods through the check out or typing out your own fast food order while trying to manage the hanger tantrums within the family. Most teenagers are leaving school expecting very little from their lives - imagine what you would feel like knowing you can't even function at school well?
-
Parents have no choice but to trust a system they most of us agree doesn't work. I'm on my own, trying to work, trying to earn a living. I have no choice. And there are so many parents who would home educate in a heartbeat, like me, if they could β€” but they can't, because having their kids home full-time, means no work as they need childcare, (you can't just not supervise kids with additional needs) - it also means the reality of no break; no respite. It isn't as easy as some political parties make it out to be to get respite care; whether you are a lone parent or in a couple. School for many parents is the only break. For so many families, there just isn't a choice about home education.
-
But it shouldn't be that so many parents feel like they've got no choice at all.
-
It should be that we've got a system like some of the Scandinavian ones β€” child-focused. Not childcare-focused, not curriculum-focused. Built around the actual child.
-
Before anything else β€” before more tinkering with SEND reforms that still aren't good enough β€” we need a complete review of the whole school system. If that's genuinely coming, as the PM has suggested, it needs to come first. Everything else, the EHCP process included, is a waste of time bolted onto a system that needs rebuilding. If the current Prime Minister meant what he said about reviewing the whole thing, then it needs doing. Now. Before anything else.
-
My life's work has always been about empowering people in some general way β€” about empowering the most vulnerable. And that absolutely includes our children, especially those with additional needs, not just us soft empaths! This IS my work.
-
As empathic people, as spiritual people, we should always be on the side of the vulnerable. On the side of the ones who need help and support. And never, ever sat in judgement of a parent who can't get their child into school β€” because the reality of that is not "they can't be bothered to make them." The reality is your child pounding at the car door, while it's moving, to be let back in, a child bigger than you, and you trying to hold it all together with nowhere to turn. And that's a reality many will never have to experience first hand.
-
If you're lucky enough to have kids who never went through any of that β€” I'm pleased for you. But we need your help and we need your advocacy.
-
This is what standing on the side of the vulnerable actually looks like β€” not just feeling for people, but showing up for them. Not parents left carrying it alone and judged for it, but all of us β€” the ones it touches and the ones it don't β€” standing together for a system built around the child. Compassion over judgement. Children over curriculums.

24/08/2026

This photo was taken a while ago. I looked happy in it β€” and genuinely, I was. I'd not long had a beautiful baby and managed to survive a traumatic, life-threatening birth.

But underneath, there was a lot going on that photo doesn't show. I'd been on a long journey of empowering myself, and I still had one final test waiting for me, within my own home: choosing my own happiness over choosing other people's.

For a long time, I'd believed I needed to put others' needs before my own. That sacrifice and serving others was the way to a happy life; surely other's would repay that kindness with their own? Surely other's would put my interests above their own, just as I did theirs. But this was my life mission; to help other's heal.

I'd spent years unpicking that belief at this point β€” and my true test was still to come.

Many of us don't realise how much Christian overhang has bled into modern-day spirituality, shaping that exact belief without us ever questioning it.

The reality, underneath that photo, was that I was tired, exhausted, and the wheels were rapidly coming off. I kept moving forward and plodding on because I had to. I had no choice. I had to pull my strength in from somewhere which others don't see or don't understand.

I don't want that for my clients. I don't want that for you.

This week, in my talk, I'll be debunking the big empath myths β€” and debunking your own understanding of your empathy. Why it's as strong as it is. Why it's as powerful as it is. And why, despite making decisions in your own head about what you want your life to look like, you keep going round in the same circles, the same patterns.

I'll be covering what's keeping you from understanding your empathy properly β€” and my solutions for taking that forward.

21/08/2026

When you're the one everyone thinks is the strong one.
-
When you're the one who sorts the problem, holds it all together, keeps everyone else steady.
-
When you're the one who finally asks for help β€” and it doesn't land.
-
You start believing things that aren't true. That this is your life mission. That you're here to hold every other soul on the planet, even if it costs you your own happiness.
-
That the cycle β€” giving it all away, running on empty, doing it again β€” is just what this is.
-
It doesn't matter how hard you try, or what intentions you set. It keeps going round.
-
Next week in Practical Magic Live, I'm pulling apart the myths that keep empaths exhausted and disempowered β€” and showing you a way forward that doesn't involve becoming someone else or hiding away.
-
Debunking The Myths That Keep Empaths Exhausted. Free, live, next Thursday evening.
-
Here's what I'll be pulling apart next week.
-
Myth: "Empaths don't recognise boundaries." Like it's just not part of how you're wired. Like boundaries and being sensitive can't exist in the same person. It isn't true, and it's damaging.
-
Myth: "Your life mission is to fix, save, hold, and carry everyone else's vibration." Sounds noble. Sounds spiritual, even. It's actually one of the fastest routes to burning yourself out completely β€” and mistaking your wounds for a calling.
-
Myth: "Feeling overwhelmed by the modern world just proves how sensitive you are." This one's sneaky. Left unchecked, it doesn't make you more enlightened β€” it can make you bitter. There's a completely different way to hold your sensitivity that doesn't end in loneliness
-
Myth: "Once you feel someone else's pain, it's yours to carry." It isn't. And I'm going to teach you the exact practice I use to give energy back that was never mine to keep.
-
Five myths. Half an hour. No fluff, no pressure, just the stuff nobody's talking about in real terms.
-
I've worked through every single one of these myself, and I lead other empaths through exactly the same process, every day. This isn't theory β€” it's a pathway to your sparkly whole self.
-
DM me your email and I'll send you the link. Can't make it live? No worries, I'll send the catch-up too. And no, I won't spam you β€” just a heads up when future ones land.

boundaries are honestly this easy πŸ‘‡ in caption
-
Somewhere we picked up the idea that a boundary has to be a whole production. A big brave confrontation. A speech. Something you psych yourself up for and then apologise your way through.
-
It really doesn't.
-
"That doesn't work for me." "No, I'm good thanks." "I can't do that one." Said lightly, easily, and then… you just carry on. No essay. No three reasons. No sorry-sorry-sorry stapled to the end of it.
-
That's the bit people miss. Not being apologetic doesn't mean being aggressive. It doesn't mean being cold or cutthroat or making a thing of it. It just means saying the thing, plainly, and letting it be what it is.
-
A boundary is allowed to be boring. Unbothered. A shrug rather than a stand-off.
-
Because the drama we add β€” the guilt, the over-explaining, the rehearsing it in the shower for three days β€” that's not the boundary. That's the conditioning around the boundary. The boundary itself is tiny. It's just a sentence.
-
So next time, try it nonchalant. Say the no. Don't dress it up. Don't chase it with an apology. Just say it, and move on with your day like it was the most normal thing in the world.
-
Because it is. πŸ–€
-
If saying no still feels like a mountain right now, come and talk to me. I offer a free call to help you find your footing and start your journey towards personal empowerment β€” no pressure, just a real conversation about where you are and where you want to be. Drop me a message. 🀍

this changes everything πŸ‘‡ full teaching in caption
-
When we talk about masculine and feminine energy, we are not talking about men and women. We're not talking about biological s*x at all.
-
That's a limitation of the English language more than anything β€” we've only got the two words, and they come loaded with centuries of gender baggage, so people hear "masculine" and think men, "feminine" and think women. And then the whole thing gets tangled up in who's allowed to be what.
-
Older, non-gendered traditions saw it far more clearly. These are two sets of attributes, and every single one of us holds both.
-
Feminine energy is inward-facing β€” introspection, care, nurture, creativity, the drawing-in and the holding.
-
Masculine energy is outward-facing β€” action, organisation, logic, playfulness, the pushing-out and the doing.
-
Not male and female. Inward and outward. Two currents, and you contain them both.
-
Which means a man can be deeply rooted in his feminine, and a woman can be powerfully connected to her masculine, and neither of them is doing anything "wrong" β€” they're just running the energy that's alive in them. The goal was never to pick a side. It was balance.
-
Once you stop reading these as gender, the whole thing opens up. You're not too much of one thing or not enough of another. You're a full being, holding both β€” and the work is simply learning to move between them. πŸ–€
-
If you're ready to find your own balance and step into your power, come and talk to me. I offer a free call to help you find your footing and start your journey towards personal empowerment β€” no pressure, just a real conversation about where you are and where you want to be. Drop me a message. 🀍

07/08/2026

We went to London on Wednesday. The plan was Kensington Palace β€” a big day out, and if you know anything about taking an autistic family into central London, you'll know that's not a small undertaking. It takes planning, energy, and a fair bit of courage.
-
And Kensington Palace was, hands down, one of the worst experiences we've had. But this is a story of success, and not failure . . .
-
The building is beautiful and utterly useless. It's the opposite of sensibly laid out β€” actively hostile to anyone with sensory or additional needs. You're ushered from one space to the next and told, firmly, that there's no other way round it. No flexibility. No room to breathe. When you've got a child on the edge of a meltdown, being marched through a rigid one-way system with no escape route is about the worst thing you can do.
-
And it got worse. People being told they couldn't bring their service dogs into certain areas. A total lack of care around allergies and food. Finicky, confusing navigation that would baffle the average person, let alone someone already overwhelmed.
-
By the time we'd had our disastrous lunch - anyone who knows what a health threatening nightmare can be for venues that begrudgingly meet the law in a half arsed kinda way around food allergies knows exactly what I saying - the kids just wanted out. I felt overwhelmed, upset. This big, brave day out β€” had been a complete disaster.
-
But that's the exact moment this post is actually about.
-
Fact is; I am the one who sets the tone. I am the leader of this family, and my children take their vibration from mine. If I stay in that spiral of upset and disappointment, so do they. That's not pressure β€” it's power. It means I always have a choice about what happens next.
-
So in that moment I chose. I thought 'f** that. We are having our wonderful day out' and said 'let's do this one last section, we'll give it fifteen minutes, and then we'll flounce out of this venue that we are far too cool for and find something better.' And we did exactly that.
-
We went up to the King's Apartments and had the single best moment of our time there β€” someone dressed as Queen Charlotte swept through, a musician played, and they pulled the children right in. Aoife was crowned "Lady Aoife," which made Alice and me her humble servants carrying the bags 'oh you must be aristocracy' was the response when Aoife admitted she didn't 'do' anything. When I asked for some of the 'Korean popular music' be played on the harpsichord, the man played "Golden." The kids laughed; the Queen begrudgingly approved of the music choice over Bach. For a few minutes, it was magic.
-
Then we left. It was before 2pm. Something I'd intended to fill a whole day, we were done with by early afternoon β€” and instead of forcing it, we walked away. Walking away, doesn't mean giving up. It means going in a different direction, but to the same destination.
-
On the way up I'd clocked somewhere called Japan House, near the Tube station. I'd seen it come up before when I was looking into free things to do in London. So I said to the kids, let's just pop in on the way back and have a look.
-
It was the best decision of the day.
-
Calm. Beautiful. Laid out with real intention β€” every part of it designed to feel considered and gentle. There was a free library, an exhibition, and a festival display where each of the children made a wish and pinned it up. Aoife's personal highlight was the Japanese toilets, which had approximately one million buttons and became a recurring event she revisited, several times for a good 10 minutes each time lol, with great joy. We gawped at the expensive jewellery, and tried out the beautiful artists supplies. Then we went up for tea and dessert in the traditional Japanese restaurant, where every child tried something completely new and authentic β€” and chose something they loved. We dreamed about going to Japan ourselves and what we may enjoy there. Especially the fancy loos! The staff couldn't have done more to work with my kids and their needs. It wasn't cheap. It was absolutely worth every single penny.
-
We spent as long there as we had in the palace. And then we chose, together, to head home before rush hour β€” because we've learned to check in as a family and ask: what do we actually want, what can our bodies handle, before we hit the point of no return. Alice can name it now. Dylan's still learning to spot it. Aoife isn't there yet. It's a fine balancing act, and it takes constant work. But it means everyone's needs get heard, and everyone gets a say. Everyone feels in control in a small way and their needs are met.
-
We experienced something genuinely beautiful. Not because the bad thing didn't happen β€” it absolutely did β€” but because we made a choice about what that meant. I changed my vibration, my outlook and decided about what came next. We sought out joy and the Universe, as it always does when we make that choice, moved around us.
-
I don't live in some serene, perfect life where I float about meditating all day. I'm a normal parent with normal stresses β€” and, honestly, a fair few more than most, because of my children's needs. My life is chaotic. What I practise isn't controlling the chaos, because none of us are ever in control of everything. It's riding it. Flowing with it. Choosing, again and again, how I meet it.
-
That's the difference between rigid, ordered, patriarchal control β€” the white-knuckle grip that shatters the second life doesn't comply β€” and instead sitting in matriarchal flow. Acceptance. Love. The willingnessi to adapt.
-
I can't control the day. I clearly can't control Kensington Palace lol. But I can always, always control myself. And that one thing changes everything. 🀍
