For years, I lived under the weight of self-doubt. Like many women, I carried other people's expectations, and somewhere along the way, I let their voices speak louder than my own. I smiled on the outside, but privately wrestled with self-consciousness, self-recrimination, and an ever-fragile sense of self worth.
At 30, with multiple degrees under my belt and a secure corporate career, I walked away - to the confusion of nearly everyone around me. Yet, my soul was louder than their opinions, and it had spoken. My first saturn return had arrived, and with it came a message I couldn't ignore.
"Pivot Now."
So I did.
I swapped heels for steel-capped boots and traded in the office for open pits, becoming a mining operator on Australia's east coast. It was never about the job - it was about answering the call to finally "meet" myself.
From there, my personal excavation began.
I devoured books, podcasts, and teachings on self-help, spirituality, entrepreneurship, and healing. And in the quiet moments, it was the mirror that taught me the most. I learned to smile at myself while washing my hands. To meet my eyes and like what was reflected back. I found comfort in silence. I stopped chasing approval. I became my own best friend, gently unlearning years of believing my worth lived outside of me.
Then came motherhood.
When my daughter arrived, I drew a hard line in the sand. This pattern ended here.
I refused to raise a child who would inherit my life long struggles. Self-love was no longer optional - it became my legacy.
Since then, my path has unfolded in ways I never could have predicted. I have studied breathwork, meditation, astrology, reiki, counselling, and quantum expansion. I'm now a mum of two children, ages 9 and 6, and a husband who's stood beside me as I've grown through every version of myself.
Ebb Flow Journals is the living expression of this journey to uncaged self-love.
This is a space built on the truth that self-love sits at the center of everything.
How we raise our children
How we build wealth and abundance
How we heal generational patterns
How we care for our physical and mental health
How we build friendships that are aligned and wholesome
Through journals, reflections, gratitude practices, self-love tools, and monthly themes, I offer the same resources that continue to guide my own journey - shared not as an expert but as someone who has been - and still is - walking the path.
This is not about perfection.
This is about permission.
Permission to change.
Permission to grow.
Permission to heal.
Permission to love yourself.
Permission to rewrite your story.
Welcome to Ebb Flow Journals.
I'm so grateful you are here.
In love, Nita
