What a lovely read. "Landing on the Island of Me" is just such a beautiful way to describe the process of returning to yourself.

The perfect dose of positivity for this eve of a new year. As someone who belatedly settled into my own skin about 5 years ago so much of this rang true and it's always a thrill to see women 'stepping into their power' (am I allowed to use an Instagram-ism here, or is that sacrilege?!). Excited to see what 2024 has in store for you, Hayley x
