YOU CAN CHOOSE AGAIN 06/01/26

I recently deleted the last blog post from my website.

Not because it was wrong, but because it just no longer felt aligned. It felt a little wingey, I talked about some other studios opening up in the area, I talked about having some struggles with my throat.. It just felt a little reactive, and when I reread it, I realised it came from a place of tiredness really, and ego. And instead of judging myself for that, I paused… and chose again.

That moment reminded me of something important:
we are always allowed to choose again.

So often we look back on something we said, shared, or did, even just a week ago, and think, I could have handled that better. And maybe we could have. But I truly believe that in that moment, we did the best we could with what we had, what we knew, and where we were at the time.

And then… we learn.

We gain perspective.

And from that place, we get to respond differently next time.

As we ease into a new year, it’s easy to feel a subtle pressure to have things figured out, to know our direction, our goals, our next steps. But life doesn’t actually work like that. Growth isn’t linear, and clarity doesn’t arrive on demand just because the calendar changes.

You don’t have to rush into becoming anything.
You don’t have to declare big intentions before you’re ready.
You don’t have to know the full picture yet.

You’re allowed to sit with it.
To feel into it.
To let it arrive slowly, and in the right timing for you.

And the beautiful thing is that this isn’t exclusive to January. 

At any moment, at any time of the year, you can choose to reset. 

You can respond with more kindness. You can make a new decision. You can set a boundary, adjust a goal, or try again with more awareness than before.

Life is a learning experience.

So if you’re looking back on something and thinking, I’d do that differently now, that doesn’t mean you failed. It means you grew.

And growth often looks exactly like this: noticing, reflecting, and gently choosing again.

And that choice is always available to you.

There’s a lot that is out of our control, but what we can learn, is how we respond to it all. 

With love always,

Kate
