Holistic mental health & wellness (practitioner training, therapeutic support).

Dear friends,

I am officially 33 weeks pregnant with my precious boy! 😍 This means I am inching closer towards maternity leave and taking important time away from my desk and practice to rest, prepare and be 100% focused on the well-being of this precious blessing.

So without further delay... As promised... My closing specials are now live! >>> Shop link in our bio Return to Presence.

Every single certification course is now on a special discount! As well as private sessions for when I return. All courses are automatically credited with an extra 3 months to complete and attend group consulting sessions with me - to accommodate for my maternity leave.

So this means you can…
⏰ Get started right away.
📋 Work through the content at your own pace.
🫶 Connect with me to wrap up.
And…
💸 Not just at 2026 prices - all at a discounted price before our annual 2027 price increases!
⏳ But limited slots I’m afraid... So once they’re gone, they’re gone.

>>> Shop all the discounts at the shop link in our bio Return to Presence.

While I’ll likely start gently coming back as I can, I plan to be back in full swing from 1 March 🥳 This is a small way I’d like to thank you for all your support and give you an opportunity to engage with meaningful learning and private session planning. Thank you for being here. You truly are my favorite people!

Counselors, somatic practitioners, coaches & and all helping professionals…. As an experienced supervisor and private practice owner, I want to let you in on a little known secret in our industry. Because I see so many struggling with this:

📌 You do not need to be a full time - or even part-time - marketer…
📌 You do not need to spend hours every week on social media…
📌 You do not need to get even more qualifications and complete more specialist courses (yes, really)…
📌 You do not need to take generic marketing advice that is not aligned to the ethics and very personal nature of our field...
📌 You do not need to be listed on every directory out there… (ps I am not and haven’t ever been on even on 1)…

To grow a thriving private practice as a helping professional! What a relief right?! Whew, I can almost hear you take an exhale.

“But then what do I do Cands?” Excellent question! And that’s exactly what I am going to share with you in a rare behind the scenes opportunity *this* week.

Clear.
Simple.
Time-effective.

You want to focus on helping others, not sales and marketing right? Excellent. You’re in good company then. This is not for the marketers, the tech gurus, or the social media specialists.

This is for the real-life helping professionals wanting to do the work without changing over to a marketing career. And I’m going to show you exactly how!

Friday, 25th July.
2pm - 3:30pm SAST.
FREE to join!

Anxiety, it can be a sneaky character. It can convince us of the worst, while also convincing us to forget what’s already inside us and around us.

📌 Save this for the next time you feel anxious thoughts sneaking in.

Hello new week, let’s try a different way 😌🌱

22/06/2026

No matter how your week has started… This is your sign that you can begin again. Any time. Any day. Hope doesn’t have an expiry date 🫶

1.) Take a look out of the nearest window you can find. See if you can spot clouds, sunshine, plants, rain drops, birds in the sky… Let your gaze take it in. Anything at all.

2.) Breathe in and say out loud: “I can…”
Breathe out and say out loud: “Be a beginner.”

May you know in your heart today that you’re not alone. The darkness is exactly where hope is born. We’re here, with you. 🕊️🕊️

These are not necessarily personality flaws friends. Or the way you’ve “always been”. They may be signs of a nervous system that has been working hard to protect you ❤️‍🩹 It can be different. It must be different.

Join our founder Cands, on Thursday, 25th June at 14pm SAST for this brand-new, FREE online workshop. Discover how trauma can shape your thoughts, emotions, relationships, and stress responses, and leave with practical tools to begin moving toward greater calm, clarity, and self-understanding.

✨ Free registration. ✨ Live online. ✨ No prior experience needed.
✨ Free bonus gift included 🫶

More info & bookings at the link in our bio Return to Presence. Limited spots.

Whew… Powerful words from our founder.

A reminder to survivors of childhood trauma, particularly those that still feel gaslit by their parents or caregivers as adults:

- If their parenting cost you, your mental health it wasn’t good enough.
- If their parenting cost you, your physical wellbeing it wasn’t good enough.
- If their parenting cost you, your ability to form healthy and happy long term relationships it wasn’t good enough.
- If their parent cost you, a healthy self-esteem with an inherent knowing of your unchanging self-worth it wasn’t good enough.

No one gets to rewrite your history. Healing begins with first acknowledging truth. It does not require agreement to be your truth. Claim it, friend.

A trauma trigger can feel immensely confusing. Sometimes it’s hard to know where it’s coming from or how to ground ourselves in the present moment again.

🫶 Save this for a moment when you need it most!

Why might it work?

- It immediately changes our focus from the trigger to our own experience.
- Looking up and humming can have a soothing effect on the vagus nerve (engages rest and digest - opposite of trauma response).
- Reparenting ourselves through a trigger can be very comforting and reduce the sense of shock we may be experiencing.
