Pushing yourself
when you’re empty
is like squeezing a lemon
that’s completely squeezed out.
You’ll put in a lot of effort,
you’ll wear yourself out,
you’ll tire yourself out,
but there’s not one droplet coming.
Refuel first.
And your energy will flow abundantly and effortlessly.
What can you do to refuel today?
This post is part of The August Break series. While I’m taking an August break to refuel and relax, to dream and scheme, to absorb and create, I’m treating you to a daily – Monday through Friday – refreshing nugget of inspiration.
Short and sweet. Thought-provoking and heartfelt. Gentle and firm. Empowering and powerful.
Dive in and inspire yourself to do your thing in the world.
Unapologetically. Radiant. Irresistible.

I work with smart, dynamic and driven people that are ticking all the boxes of success, yet feeling as if they are living their life with the brakes on. I work with caring and generous people that are trying to be everything to everyone and forgetting themselves in the process. I work with savvy, fun and creative high achievers that want to reconnect with what they really want in life, instead of living out everyone else’s expectations and worrying they’re not good enough. Together, we dive in. Together, we dive deep. I offer a different perspective. I offer tools and concepts and a space to explore. You explore. You take action. You emerge. Bubbly. Sparkly. Infectiously inspiring. The way you’ve always been. You just didn’t realise it yet.
