NEWS FLASH: I’m living back in Vancouver. With a housemate. I’m a freelance Creative. I’m turning 34 this month. And I feel BACK in my vibe, baby! I haven’t felt this content, aligned, and on-the-up for a while! Emerging from a dusty and down period, I know and accept myself more than ever. So today, I’ma share my views on ‘adulting’ and societal expectations at this age, and what my situation is. I’m now a SOFT GIRL.


Themes in this Ep:

-Value-centred living

-Building a life in Vancouver

-Choosing a place to be that suits me

-Living authentically within the ‘norms’ of Western culture 

-Experimenting with how I want to live/who I want to be

-NOT climbing the corporate ladder and choosing against it

-My work identity and shaping work around my life (not letting it rule!)

-Types of relationship and ethical non-monogamy 

-Accepting myself

-Ignoring ‘shoulds’

-Life choices

-Fulfilment 

-More flowing, less forcing

-Marriage? Kids? Living together as a couple or living apart?
