Thank you for sharing where all the change began for you, Clare! Not for the first time I was reminded how similar our paths have been. I really loved reading more about it! It's so lovely to hear that something can shift when you are clear about what you need and what your intentions are. Sometimes it can feel like a little miracle when something turns up out of a sudden and you are exactly at the right place at the right time. ✨️ I'm so happy for you that it has turned out so well for you and that you are on a good path. 🌿🌷πŸ₯°

I enjoyed reading this beautiful post πŸ’š I resonate so deeply with your words. Your allotment sounds magical- I also wish to have a garden or an allotment one day to create a quiet space to connect with nature and to calm the mind πŸ’š

Thank you for sharing your personal story Clare, to know a little bit more of you and where you came from. To come back to nature... A lesson I've learned too 😊

Beautiful insight, Clare. I love how the earth was calling to you, and you were responding before you even consciously knew it. πŸ’š

I loved reading this, thank you πŸ™ A lot resonated with me: teaching - burn out - finding joy and meaning in a slower paced life. I look forward to reading more.

Allotment is the best investment. 20 years here and still going. It’s a very satisfying thing to do. Highly recommend
