I started this blog a year ago in 2025 when i was tackling yet another difficult period in my life. That chapter got a whole lot worse over the next few months!

This blog was orginally about finding connection in gardens and seasons, i was desperately trying to find some answers to why life kept throwing one trauma after another at me, or maybe i was fighting the deep deep urge inside me that i was not living authentically to who i knew inside i really was.

Time away from the blog has been precious, painful, dark but fulfilling… there was no sudden awakening, no aha moment, just lots of screaming, crying, joyfulness, peace and pain, just the messyness ive come to expect from life.

Now I’m back, having discovered a little more of who i am and what i want out of life (this is by no means a new me, or an old me just life) A little more is explained in the October 26 blog, but blogging is on my colour coded pinboard to try to keep up with along with me new and exciting projects, namely http://www.thenaturegardenstudio.uk

This blog is still about connection, but now i understand what that means to me a little more. Ive found that deeper root that connects me to the natural world and am at the start of what feels like a beautiful journey or chapter as i discover more of how i can deepen it further and help others find that connection too. Primarly i hope that will be through garden spaces, but i’m here to spread the word however i can.

Its not that nature needs us..its that we desperately need nature.

I may update this more as i build confidence, so as usual bear with if you find me.
