Yesterday was all about self-care, slowing down, switching off, and reconnecting with nature on my paddleboard.
My work can be incredibly rewarding but also deeply challenging. I support people struggling with suicidal thoughts, anxiety, trauma, and self-harm from all walks of life. Whilst I’ve built strong tools and boundaries over the years, I’d be lying if I said it doesn’t sometimes take its toll.
That’s why I have to actively let go. When I reach the water’s edge, I mentally take off the weight of the week and leave it behind.
Out there, floating on the water, it’s just me and the present moment. And honestly, what else do we ever truly have but now?
