A Year of Fear, Growth, and Deeper Trust

As 2025 comes to an end, I can honestly say it passed like a bullet train. Fast, intense, and impossible to slow down.

This year gave me many challenges. It pushed me out of my comfort zones again and again, and it asked me to face fears I had been quietly carrying for a long time. Some of those moments were uncomfortable, even overwhelming — but they were necessary.

One of the most profound shifts this year has been the deepening relationship with my own body. And interestingly, the deeper that connection became, the deeper my connection with my loved ones grew too.

It made me realise how much everything begins with how safe and comfortable we feel inside our own bodies. That inner relationship reflects into every area of life — our relationships, our work, the way we show up in the world. I’m not sure if this makes perfect sense in words, but it is something I feel very clearly in my body.

And it’s exactly what I wish for all women to experience.

This year also taught me something important about fear. I no longer see it as a bad thing. Fear has a role. It shows us where our weaknesses are, where old wounds live, and where healing is still needed. It invites us to soften, to look deeper, and ultimately, to surrender.

Fear has layers. You process one layer, and another one rises to the surface. You work with that, and then you realise there is still more beneath. It’s not a one-time thing — it’s a relationship, a lifelong conversation.

I am still in that process. I am still doing the work. But what has changed is that I have learned to trust what my body tells me. I listen more. I pause more. I let my body lead, even when my mind wants certainty.

As this year closes, I feel a quiet sense of readiness.I am so, so, so looking forward to what 2026 will bring — and for the first time in a long while, I truly feel ready to meet it.

With trust, curiosity, and an open heart, xxx
