Yesterday we spent time at Camp Widow and even tho

Yesterday we spent time at Camp Widow and even though we laughed and cried while stories were shared, the themes that shone through were resilience, meaning and hope despite the loss and grief.💫
.
There was also a bittersweet remembering and gratefulness for the time had with loved ones now gone.💔
.
The pain was real, grief was raw but hope and love shone through.💝
.
All we have is now.💥
.
Never take now for granted. It's a daily gift.💖

It has been an amazing if not emotional day having the privilege of attending Camp Widow Australia.💝
.
Hearing @mattgolinski and @robinbaileynow share their grief journey and how it shapes who they are now was awe-inspiring!💞
.
It is such an honour to partner with @firstlightwidowedassociation to see this conference become a reality. 💫
.
So many of our clients face this loss. Having a support network like this is invaluable.❤

Who we are - is defined by many things - one of which is our culture. 💖
.
Whether that culture is from family heritage, from the country we live in, our community or from our family - it shapes us. 💞
.
Last night we celebrated that culture and the richness it has brought to Teja's life!🥰
.
Wearing @mara_siksna's Latvian costume, flanked by her family, her friend Ava and her amazing @st.jamescollege school community - she had the courage to showcase this part of who she is. 🇱🇻
.
The entire evening was a celebration of culture as diverse as the globe we call home! 🌏
.
We are so proud of you beautiful @teja.harris! 🤩

Yesterday was the last day of a 4 week online training for another 8 estates lawyers from across Australia in all things Collaborative Practice! 💥
.
It is such a joy to teach others the skills to implement this transformative way to resolve conflicts over inheritance! 🥰 Even if I pull some weird and wonderful faces in the process! 🤣
.
Lawyers who catch the vision for this team based resolution process are the ones who get the most excited by its potentials. 🤩
.
They realise that they can give up fighting the bitter battles for clients (or prevent them from happening in the first place) and instead work with other lawyers, financial neutral and communications coach to help clients resolve their family conflict in a supported way. 😊
.
This means that families can come up with their own creative settlements that take into account what is most important to them as humans - rather than fighting over "entitlements" at law. 💫
.
To my recent round of trainees I thank for giving your time and resources to learn this new way to practice! It has been an honour.💞
.
To other estates lawyers, financial advisors, mediators or conflict coaches who want to get involved I am running my LAST face to face course for 2021 in BRISBANE on 24 & 25 May! With only 3 spots left you can register via the link in my bio! 👆

Last night I had the joy and privilege to see one part of my dream come true! 🤗
.
Last night (with the backing of AACP) I launched Australia's first ever national wills & estates collaborative practice group (from the very glam boardroom at Vincents)! Bringing together "hubs" from Qld, NSW, Victoria and WA - we finally got the chance to meet each other!🎉
.
In honour of the occasion I sourced wines from each State to toast members from each location! Well...for those who know their wines I cheated with the Qld wine because really it is the ONE thing we don't do all that well here! 🍷
.
It is exciting to put our heads together to see this new (and IMHO better) way to help families resolve conflict over inheritance without court! 💫

Today my beautiful mamma marks another lap around the sun! 💫

Check out this gorgeous pic of her! 😘

She is probably quite unaware of how she glows out love and positivity to all who cross her path - but she does - effortlessly.🥰
.
I for one am blessed to call her mine. 💞
