A Letter from Me to You

I write letters every other Sunday where I share personal stories, lessons that I am learning along with occasional updates on what’s coming new & what I've been working on or towards.

No spam, I promise :)

Come say Hello!

Since mid-November last year, every Monday was a p Since mid-November last year, every Monday was a podcast day. A story of a creative human sharing how they are making it happen in their own unique, messy and human way. I had the honour to connect, collect and share ten such stories with you in the first season of the podcast. It seemed strange today that there wasn't a new episode out today. It had become a ritual for me to edit a story over the week and schedule it to go on Monday. The last episode was with a lovely human, incredible artist and founder of @wearestardustuk creative shop. We talked about her journey of combining science and art, creating a niche market for herself, going freelance, doing things her own way and how she is making it all work. Her artwork is absolutely gorgeous. Agnes’s story is the last of this series. The end of the first season of living your truth podcast. I am super happy to share her story with you all as her story is a testament t0 doing things in our own unique, messy and human way. I am sure this episode will also give you permission to do things in their own way too. Find the link in bio to have a listen or have you already had a chance to listen?

There it is. My word of the year - Embrace. I wa There it is. My word of the year - Embrace. I was thinking probably ‘wholehearted’ is going to suit me better this year but I was conflicted and I kept coming back to this one instead. A few days ago when @giuliawrites prompted and asked about it on her grid. I said it out loud for the first time. Shared it with someone else. It felt so right. Exactly what I need. Exactly what I want to feel in this year. One lesson that I have learned past year is, All the answers you seek are within you. This is what I want to explore more. Build a better connection to myself, my body, my work and most importantly with my intuition. I’m going to focus on learning to trust myself better. Embrace what I already know. Give in and see where the flow leads me instead of steering the ship and trying to be in control. Instead, I’m letting go of control and ready to embrace. I decided to share it with you today to make it real for myself. End the decision paralysis. I will be exploring it more and writing about it in detail on the blog soon. Do you have a word for 2020 yet? Assuming that you are in the word of the year camp too! :)
Hello, 2020!✨ I am hoping your first day of the Hello, 2020!✨ I am hoping your first day of the new year was filled with laughter, love, snuggles and joy! Mine was my favourite kind of slow and cosy. How do you feel about the word 'should'? What kind of feelings and thoughts does it bring up for you? I've been thinking about it a lot lately. I’ve written about why I think we not only need to part ways with the word should but also the judgments and expectations it brings along with it. If you fancy a read, the link is in my bio :)
Oh, what an amazing transformational this year has Oh, what an amazing transformational this year has been! I've been contemplating writing this review for many days. The reason why I was holding myself back from doing so was mainly that the kind of successes I've had this year doesn't look good on paper. It was more on the personal growth level which can not be measured on a scale. Neither can it be shown to someone else. It could simply felt. It is only for yourself. I wondered if I could really call it a success at all. Isn't it strange how we only consider things that are measurable as real success? I have written and shared my review of 2019 on the blog. The link is up above in my profile @hirasahmed It has been lovely connecting with you all on this tiny little app. Thank you for being here 💛 I am signing off to watch the fireworks now✨ Hope you have a wonderful start to your new year! #yearinreview
Hope you had a wonderful week full of love and cos Hope you had a wonderful week full of love and cosy hugs! I have been resting and enjoying diving into @susannahconway ‘s Unravel the year book and I have made some amazing discoveries about myself and how far I have come. Can't recommend it enough. For my last post of this year, I want to share a new episode with you! I chatted with Rubeena @thegraymuse about learning to enjoy the process more than the outcome, setting up a creative business for yourself, finding your own version of success and the importance of listening to your own intuition to guide the way. Link in my Bio. I hope you have an amazing start to the new year. I like the sound of 2020. I said it too many times in the into and outro of the episode :D #livingyourtruthpodcast #ourstudiotime
I came across @rebeccamirgrady 's work on this lit I came across @rebeccamirgrady 's work on this little app in these tiny squares. Her work is absolutely gorgeous. She makes beautiful wearable pieces of art by hand, tells stories through the lens of her camera and she paints. For me, her work is a perfect example of being a multi-passionate. When I decided to share stories of creative humans for the first season of the podcast, I knew I wanted to bring her own and share her story. We are talking all things about having too many passions to follow, an interdisciplinary approach to making art and how she manages her time and energies and how she get things done. It is more like a casual conversation where Becca is sharing her story, how she sees the world and what has shaped her approach. If you consider yourself a multi-passionate too, this episode will encourage you to give permission to follow your curiosities in a way that works for you and keep going. The link is in the usual place. Are you a multi-passionate too and do you recognise with this term? For me, I am definately passionate about a ton of things but not so sure if I resonate with this term. I am keen to hear how else do you refer to this trait of yours or this phenomenon? #livingyourtruthpodcast #ourstudiotime
