The joy of learning!

Rediscovering the joy of learning!

I’m loving the ’style stuff’! I’m loving being on a learning journey even more!!! 

Last week I supported the latest Australian Style Institute in person training. It was amazing to sit through the content again, now having a different perspective and with fewer ‘conversations’ going on in my head - I have already decided I can and I will bloody do this! 

The styling skills and perspective have unleashed a creative side I didn’t know I had. I have also discovered a whole new language to express myself and to support others to express their authentic selves. Plus, I have found a community of mentors and peers to share this journey with.

I also reflected on why I took this zag in the first place. It seems to me to have started as a search for something new and for a ‘career’ path that will have longevity as I go further down the path of life. As I look back, training as a PT and nutrition coach were perhaps the first steps in exploring that. (I have had a lot of questions about this, which I undersand. Very sadly, though, a reasonable amount of judgement - I 'can't do both' comms and styling I have been told... hold my coat and f#@king watch me!!!)

The moral of the story - trust your gut, it’s telling you to do something for a reason. You don’t have to have complete clarity on what that is before you take the first step - the true joy is often in the journey of learning and discovery. And, you might just end up being the most amazing version of yourself, so far, along the way!
