And things really ramped up when I had our 2nd baby.

I had just closed my retail business after 3 years - I was burnt out and everything felt different this time around, it was busier but at the same time slowed me down and it felt like I was learning all over again.
The next couple of years went by in a blur. When I lost both my dad and nan in a short time, grief cracked me open in ways that totally rocked my world.

And when I finally felt like things were balancing out, 2020 hit and the whole world was rocked & stopped!!

In that stillness, I started noticing things that I hadn't before - old fears, silent beliefs, unspoken patterns — not just mine but from all around.

It wasn’t until I sat with them (really sat with them) and learnt all that I could, that I realized how much we are all carrying.

That’s when the journey inward truly began.

I thought it was to fix myself, but it was to remember myself.

That's what inspired creating the Allow Framework, a map to share and walk that path beside others — back to their true authentic self.
