About
Hi, I'm Sam, here I am with my little monkeys. They bring me daily joy and keep me on my toes!
I live in sunny Saltdean and am a lover of nature walks, reading, theatre, wild saunas, asian cuisine, Siamese cats and 90's club music! I enjoy making connections with others and sharing ideas.
I'm a working mother in my 40s and a busy bee. I value being fit and active and am mindful of balancing time and energy around my family (not always easy!)
A while back, after a prolonged period of stress, I found myself completely burnt out. I struggled to talk about how I was feeling as I simply didn’t want to worry those closest to me. However when I finally did, it made a huge difference.
I realised from this experience, that sometimes we all need to reach out for support. It's also way better to listen to the messages our body is telling us and establish a proper self-care routine - a lesson I’m keen to share with others.
Self-care means different things to different people - for me it’s meant prioritising sleep, rest, regular exercise, quality nutrition and connecting with people I feel supported by. It also means remembering to have fun when life gets a bit full on!
