Oh hey there. Missed you! So much has happened since my last post and life update. I had the most wonderful time as assistant costume designer on a TV series for eight months. It was wonderful to rediscover my creative side and love of beautiful costumes/clothes and telling a story through that medium. It was also great to work with a team again – I didn’t realise how lonely it can be, being a one woman entrepreneur. So more of that please! The job was super stressful and challenging at times – trying to find a healthy work/life balance and the adjustment of working my own hours to not being able to spend as much time with my daughter. Towards the end of the shoot, I was obviously super run down, had a cold or covid that I didn’t shake properly and it resulted in pneumonia. A bit of a scare which forced me to take a little time off and has made me appreciate my good health so much more. (I’ll talk about this in more detail in another post.) 

During those eight months, I completely let go of all things Bespoke Body. I didn’t post. I didn’t take on any clients. I didn’t interact with my BB commuity. I simply didn’t have the capacity to put energy into anything other than the film shoot, family and a little self care. My meditation and spiritual practices/rituals dwindled to almost nothing. I really missed so many aspects of health coaching and personal training. 

I ended off the year assistant styling two big and demanding commercials. My husband returned home from overseas just in time to celebrate my 38th birthday and we enjoyed some lovely family holiday time. 

So here we are, midway through the second month in February and I’m trying to figure out how to once again juggle/balance my film career and my passion/purpose as a health coach and trainer. 

I had a vedic astrology reading a week ago and voiced this conundrum. The astrologer told me I need to do both – to utilise my gifts and to satisfy my multifaceted mind. 

So here I am, once again. Back at it. Working out how to best serve YOU, using my gifts and knowledge to the best of my ability. 

I have a lot of e-book and course ideas brewing in my mind – watch this space!
