There was an interesting program on @insightsbs last night about Inheritance.
.
My key takeaways:
.
💌Holding conversations about Inheritance before death WITH your family can save so much heartache after you are gone.
.
💔Escalating conflict by diving into litigation to contest an estate can cost your family everything.
.
❤️‍🩹Taking on an executorship can take a massive toll on those who choose to take on that responsibility (it is a choice by the way - you don't have to accept such an appointment).
.
💓Having no expectation of an Inheritance brings freedom and breeds self sufficiency and drive.
.
💕Finding unique ways to use a modest Inheritance to honour those from whom it has been received can have a profound impact.
.
You can watch the full episode on SBS on demand.
.
If you want to know more about how you can hold conversations with your family about Inheritance in a way that will spare your family heartache - please reach out - it is the very reason I wrote my book "Rest in Peace" (you can order your own copy via the link in my bio 👆)

How are you with change? 💫 Do you resist it or

How are you with change? 💫

Do you resist it or embrace it?🥰

Sometimes when change happens beyond our control we find it harder to accept. If we chose a new path it can be easier. 💕

You don't have to wait for the time to be right - a new beginning starts when you chose it.💥

While celebrating Craig's birthday this week - he decided to surprise us - announcing the news that we could get a puppy dog! 🐶
.
Those who know me, know how long the campaign for a dog has been (far longer than the Australian Election Campaign that's for sure)! So I know you will celebrate this win with me! 🥳
.
This has however come as a surprise (even to me) since we truly had lost all hope that Craig would ever change his mind! 😲
.
So now the research on dog type begins! 🐕🦮🐶🐩🐕‍🦺
.
Our thinking is a small-ish dog (one that doesn't need loads of exercise but also won't expect to be carried). Low-sheding fur (is that even a thing?) allergy friendly with a good temperament. 🥰
.
Still tossing up between adopting a dog or buying a puppy from a breeder. Not sure I am ready to embrace another season of sleepless nights and toilet training! 😬
.
So dog-lovers out there - hit me up with your suggestions and tips! 👋

Happy birthday to my "prince" Craig! 🤴🏼

I might not be able to spoil you with a stay in an Italian palace this year but I know you would much prefer to be surrounded by your family! 💞
.
We love you more than words could say and we are so grateful for all the ways you love us back so fiercely! 💝
.
The festival of Craig has already begun and will continue - so enjoy all the love that comes your way today. You deserve it all! 🥰

Celebrating a sunny Monday morning in BrisVegas after the rainy days we have been having of late. 🌤

I love it when the sun comes back. It always does. 😘

How about you? Do you prefer sunny blue skies? or are you just as happy with the cloudy, rainy, cold ones?😍

Weaving her own flower wreath "vainags" with an Aussie twist (Eucalypt leaves) had me bursting with pride! 🥰

Who we are, where we come from, our heritage, our roots, our culture and our traditions - are all part of the tapestry of our lives. 💫

I am so grateful Teja embraces all parts of her cultural DNA! 💞
