  • 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

    Afternoon beach walks with my fellow shell collect Afternoon beach walks with my fellow shell collector and rockpool explorer @teja.harris πŸ–

I can't walk a beach and not scan for the treasures the ocean has delivered to the shore. 🐚
.
We have shell and rock collections at home full of holiday memories! 😁
.
I have never been good at the minimalism thing. I am too much of a bower bird and sentamentalist! πŸ€—
.
What about you? Do you walk a beach and stop to collect shells? Or can you enjoy them and leave them behind? 🀲

He loves to keep going back to the same holiday spots over and over. πŸ”„

Admittedly, finding a place that works for our family is not easy.πŸ‘€
.
Lets just say there are a few "odd" boxes we have to tick for our escape artist son and his flexible legs that see him mount a balustrade in seconds! 🀯
.
I on the other hand - love to explore and try new places. I am also quite willing to spend the time researching places that tick all of the said boxes! βœ…

So when we find a new spot - and Craig gives it a nod of approval - I feel like I have struck gold! 🌞

How about you? Are you a wombat or an explorer when it comes to holiday destinations?πŸ˜ƒ

    We often talk about giving ourselves "headspace" b We often talk about giving ourselves "headspace" but when was the last time you gave yourself some "heartspace"?IπŸ’ž

If you have big decisions to make - have you given yourself time to connect with your soul and to listen to what your heart might be trying to say to your head?πŸ’Œ
.
As an "A-type" personality - I am "prone" to thinking stuff out logically. Making pros and cons lists. Trying to work it out. But sometimes my logic doesn't feel right or important enough. πŸ€”
.
That's when I know it's time for me to look deeper - to what the heart sees. 😎

It is here that so much in life is unlocked. And we can find the purpose, meaning, peace, direction and hope that we hunger for. πŸ₯°

    No matter your feelings about the monarchy - today No matter your feelings about the monarchy - today a wife lost her husband and soul mate. Their marriage lasting just over 73 years till death has parted them.πŸ’”
.
No matter your feelings about Prince Phillip - he stood by his wife when she became Queen unexpectedly. He gave up his citizenship, took on her Windsor name, sacrificed his naval career and cared for their four children. In doing so he broke almost every traditional mould. πŸ’Œ
.
I can only imagine the immense sadness Her Majesty the Queen Elizabeth must be feeling today - as she is thrown into funeral arrangements with the eyes of the world on her. πŸ˜₯
.
The only blessing in this post-covid world is that it seems Prince Phillip may just get his wish - that not too much fuss be made for his final farewell. πŸ’
.
Rest in peace Prince Phillip. You certainly were one of a kind. 🎩
