World Breastfeeding Week 🤍

I'm really proud of my breastfeeding journey. I know how fortunate I was to have such a positive start.

Before my baby arrived, I was gifted a breastfeeding course with Better Breastfeeding Breastfeeding and an experienced lactation consultant. That knowledge and support gave me confidence from day one. Our journey was thankfully very straightforward, but I know that's not the reality for everyone.

Along the way, I also found incredible support through a Facebook breastfeeding community, and 📔The Womanly Art of Breastfeeding became a trusted source of information whenever I needed reassurance.

I wish every family had access to the same level of support and guidance that I did.

At The Cycle Wellness Academy, I believe every feeding journey deserves respect. Some parents choose to breastfeed, some cannot, and some decide not to—and every family should be supported without judgement.

What matters most is that all mothers have access to evidence-based information and qualified support, so they can make informed decisions that are right for them and feel empowered throughout their journey.

Let's continue creating a culture where parents are informed, supported and respected—whatever their feeding journey looks like. 💛

Here's a little clue... 👀

✨ It's not about changing who you are... 💛 It's about rediscovering the woman you've always been.

Any guesses?

Day 6 ☀️🏕️ of favourite week of the year always comes around far too quickly.

A week of slowing down, spending time outdoors and filling our cups. ❤️

As always, Zipit Lough Key was a huge hit with the lads, and this year LoughAllenAdventure was a new favourite. So many laughs, plenty of splashes and more than enough tired bodies afterwards! Lunch in The Shed Distillery was exactly what we needed after all the excitement.

The rest of the week was beautifully simple... gentle jogs, lakeside walks, refreshing dips, campfire chats, endless laughs and the odd glass of red. 🍷🔥

New friendships were made (by the boys... and even the dogs! 🐶), the weather was kind to us, and watching Mayo lift the All-Ireland in made for a pretty special evening.

Tomorrow it's time to pack up and head home, feeling rested, grateful and incredibly lucky to give my young man these adventures, while making memories with great friends along the way.

Until next year, . 💚🏕️

While the rest of the country basked in a heatwave. We spent the weekend soaking up the wind & rain in Achill. But do you know what...it was just bliss.

Today I attended Annual Conference. Speakers included Norma Foley TD and President Catherine Connolly
But the stand out speaker of the day was Adelle Hyland from Tacu Family Resource Center Her story of resilience and finding belonging brought the room to a stand still. You could hear a pin drop as everyone listened to her moving story. She spoke about her familys story and the feeling she had when the team in Tacu asked " how can we help?" Adelle has set up a club, a space where her family can find belonging. It sounds amazing. You are amazing Adelle and well done Tacu.

Last Thursday, I had the privilege of attending the Community Response to Domestic Abuse Western Regional Network meeting in Tuam, where I was honoured to be one of five new members formally inducted into the Network.
I am proud to represent Solas Family Resource Centre as part of this important regional collaboration, and to bring the values of education, empowerment, and community wellbeing that also underpin my work through The Cycle Wellness Academy.
The meeting included the launch of the Network's 2026–2028 Strategic Plan, member induction, and valuable discussions on strengthening our collective response to domestic abuse and coercive control across Galway, Mayo, and Roscommon.
The Community Response to Domestic Abuse Western Regional Network has been in existence since 2002 and now comprises 26 organisations, including Family Resource Centres, frontline domestic abuse services, local development companies, and community organisations. Together, we work to raise awareness, promote good practice, and support community-based responses to domestic abuse.
It was wonderful to be hosted by Bru BhrídeFamily Resource Centre, one of the Network's newest Family Resource Centres.
A poignant moment of the morning was a period of silence and the lighting of a candle in remembrance of the four women who have been murdered in Ireland in recent weeks by men known to them. It was a powerful reminder of why this work matters and why strong, connected community responses are essential.
I look forward to contributing to the Network's work and collaborating with colleagues across the region to help create safer, more informed, and more supportive communities.
💜 Together, we can continue to build communities where safety, respect, and support are available to everyone.

Feeling very lucky today. ✨
We don’t have it all, but we have each other, and that’s more than enough. Grateful for our health, the ability to move our bodies, and the beautiful places that surround us.
This morning was the perfect reset before the weekend — a 10k run, a dip in the Atlantic, and coffee by the sea. ☕🌊
Now counting down to summer holidays, camping adventures, and making more memories together. ❤️
