Are you struggling to find a sense of balance and peace in your life amidst the constant demands and distractions of modern living?




In this episode, I candidly solo chat about the importance of slowing down, listening to our bodies, and carving out space for self-care and mindfulness. I draw on inspiration from recent experiences, such as attending the Capital Crime Writing Festival in London and celebrating International Nature Journalling Week.




As usual, I share helpful prompts to help you cultivate a more balanced and fulfilling life.
