Yes, this is me putting a crown on my own head yet again. 👑😂 But in my defence, it is August…
August has always felt so special to me.
It’s my birthday month, of course, but it’s so much more than that. It’s the month that reminds me of long, carefree days with my boys when they were little. No school runs, no rushing around, just making memories, soaking up sunshine and squeezing every last drop out of summer. The best of times.
I feel like August softens everything. The warm evenings, the golden light, people seem kinder, smiles come easier and life feels just a little less frantic.
Maybe that’s why I love the Lions Gate energy too. Not because I think I have to become someone new but, because it reminds me to remember who I already am.
So yes, I’m placing the crown on my own head.
Not because I think I’m a queen or someone above anyone else, but because I’m finally learning that it’s okay to honour myself too.
These are a few of the wishes I’m carrying into this beautiful month. Nothing fancy. Just little reminders of the life I want to keep creating.
Here’s to a month full of sunshine, joy, miracles, deep belly laughs and remembering that you were never meant to shrink. And if like me, you’re lucky enough to hold the littlest hands and witness the most precious, tiny smiles, treasure them, the most.
Happy August. 💜
