It has been a while since I blogged. Over two years. In fact, the last time I posted was 7 July 2019.

Wow, a lot has happened in the world since then. A great deal universally and in my own life.

After a rejuvenating trip this year to The Grampians I felt inspired to write again and connect with my tribe and community. So, here I am again sharing my thoughts in hope to help you open and tune into your own true voice and essence.

So why have I been MIA? A few things happened. Firstly, at the end of 2018, I lost my father. After years of a complex relationship, I found myself grieving the man that had many times caused me grief. Then at the beginning of 2019, my relationship ended, and I found myself restarting once again.

It was a difficult year, especially financially. I found myself burning out and experiencing empathy fatigue for the first time in my coaching career. Between the grief, financial hardship and family drama I began to feel as if I had little to give. It was time to retreat, resume my own inner work and fill myself up again.

In September 2019 I was offered a job opportunity as Program Manager for Stride Education and Big Brothers Big Sisters. My work involves managing, developing, and delivering social and emotional programs in both primary and high schools. Those that know me, are aware that this is an area I am passionate about. I feel blessed to be doing this incredible work.

In October 2019 my book, The Courage to Be You, was finally published and I celebrated a book launch with dear friends and clients. Besides the birth of my own children, that day will remain to be one of the best, most rewarding days of my life. I had big plans for the book and my role at Stride.

Then, of course, Covid hit in 2020 and my work with Stride was all consuming. For the first time in history, wellbeing was at the forefront with students, parents and teachers struggling to juggle and make sense of uncertain times. It was clear that I was in the right place at the right time. My book plans were set aside, and my coaching hours limited to Fridays and Saturdays.

So, here I am, just over 2 years down the track and I am ready to return to my soul’s highest purpose- helping people move beyond their Egoo-ic existence and master the art of self-love.

Covid, rattled and continues to challenge every institution and thought pattern stemming from Ego. The dominance of fear in our lives is evident. Now, more than ever is a time for us to adapt, grow and thrive in our authentic potential.

And so, I am back. Of course, delicately balancing my role as a mum, program manager, speaker, coach, friend and personal self-care. My passion is to share information and wisdom. I will be launching a series of free webinars and a new online program starting in May 2022. I also hope to celebrate another book launch for those that want to do it all again or could not attend the first one.

I thank you for being a part of my tribe. May 2022 be a healing year for us all! I look forward to working together and helping you unlearn the patterns stemming from fear so that you can return to your true authentic self- calm, connected, confident and courageously living your reason for being.

Lots of love, 

Cheryne
