Welcome to Ebb & Flow my life blog about exactly that...the ebb & flow motion that life seems to take on.
A naturally "recurrent pattern of coming & going" - this description fits my perception of life perfectly.
Sometimes things seem to decline through specific events & experiences: heartbreaks/trauma/life events yet from these come regrowth, extension, expansion & flow.
Read on for my Ebb & Flow experiences, lessons, thoughts, insights & perspectives as I journey through my reality of mental health, motherhood, relationship, friendship & career.
