    2 Comments on Italy bucket list trip insider tips – Florence
  • Hello

    I am Zinta Harris. I live in Brisbane, Australia with my husband of 25 years, Craig (known by most as Harry) and our two children Teja and Zigi. I am a specialist wills and estates lawyer by day and inspiration seeker by night. I help Australian families navigate the legal fallout after the loss of a loved one in a calm and compassionate way. My mood is better after a daily double shot coffee and a glass or two of bubbles. I get my energy from people. My superpower is encouraging others. It is my sincere hope that this blog will encourage you. I hope it gives you a chance to chime in with your experience or to feel part of a community that has walked through a valley and made it through. Read about me

Teja baked #pīrāgi (aka Baltic Bacon Buns), we made #vaiņagi (flower and leaf wreaths) ate #jāņusiers🧀 (a special fennel filled cheese) and danced! 💃

    Not quite "blue suede shoes" but it felt right to Not quite "blue suede shoes" but it felt right to be wearing my hot pink Jfhari boots to watch the @elvismovie in gold class to celebrate Keithy's birthday! 🎉
.
Baz Lurhman has done an incredible job of pulling together the story of the agent behind Elvis - and the actors were crazy good! 🕺
.
I was only 7 years old when Elvis died at just 42. So I was unaware that the controversy about his signature moves was because of their negro origin - although I suspect the "control" over their consequent effect on women was high on the list of reasons for banning them! 🙄
.
A lesson of how an era and one man clipped the wings of a talent that should not have been caged. 💔
.
The movie is long rollercoaster ride but well worth the watch - my tip - head to gold class if you can and make it an experience! 🥂

    Every time I run my Collaborative Practice for Wil Every time I run my Collaborative Practice for Wills and Estates training, I ask my participants what they would say to their colleagues who are interested in doing the training. ✨
.
This is what one of my recent trainees had to say! 😁 
.
I am running an EOFY sale where you can get 20% off all training courses until midnight AEST on Thursday 30 June 2022. Use the code “EOFY22” at checkout to secure your spot at the very best price! 💥

    *INTERNATIONAL WIDOW'S DAY* 23 June 2022 💕 . To *INTERNATIONAL WIDOW'S DAY* 23 June 2022 💕
.
Today is a special day marked by The United Nations as International Widows Day (resolution A/RES/65/189)—which shines a light on the unique experience that is widowhood. ✨
.
This experience can be remarkably different depending on where you are in the world; widowed women and their children may face economic instability, violence, be discriminated against or suffer traumatic traditional practices. 👩
.
In Australia we are lucky enough to have the @firstlightwidowedassociation ; a not-for-profit organisation that connects young widowed people from all backgrounds to resources, programs and a community that will support them through the experience. They are running their next Camp Widow on 5-7 August in Brisbane - which is a fantastic initiative! Otherwise you can head to our Shop (link in bio 👆) and pick up a pack of charity cards which support their fabulous work! 🥰
.
But no matter where you are in the world, there is something that is universal in the widow/widower experience: and that is the incredible bravery, strength and love in all of these individuals. They are some of the most inspiring people I have ever had the privilege to know. 🤩

So grateful for the support his school pours out for him! 🤗
.
And grateful to be able to sneak some time away this morning before work went bonkers to cheer our little man on! 🥰
