Hi
My name is Daphne, and 6 years ago I was exactly where you are now - feeling like I had lost myself, that there had to be more but with no idea of how to go about finding out what the 'more' was or how to get it once I found it. After a lot of searching and researching, trial and error, I came up with some techniques that made it all a little better. Now, I want to share this with you (and save you the trial and error!)

My Story
In my late 40s I found myself at a crossroads. Despite ticking off all the boxes on society's checklist for a successful life - marriage, children, career, house, car - I couldn't shake the feeling that something was missing. The completion of my tick list didn't bring the fulfilment I had hoped for, and I had lost sight of who I truly was amidst the endless cycle of meeting others' needs and expectations. I realised that I needed to embark on a journey to work out who I really was and to find an answer to the question: now what?
I made the difficult decision to leave behind the familiar but unfulfilling aspects of my life. It was a leap into the unknown, a step towards finding my true self and what brings me joy. Through a combination of methods like acupuncture and mindfulness practices, I began to heal not just physically, but emotionally as well. I learned to listen to my inner voice, to prioritise my needs, and to let go of the self-doubt that held me back for so long.
As I navigated the ups and downs of this transformative journey, I discovered a passion for helping others improve their emotional well-being. This led me to create a supportive community for women going through similar life transitions. Today, I provide guidance and hope for women who, like me, believe that there must be more to life than just going through the motions. So, welcome to Getting our Pink Back, a space where women can find solace, support, and the courage to discover themselves as they navigate the complexities of midlife. So, strap yourself in (not because it’s a crazy ride but because your balance isn’t what it was), and let's grab the next chapter with both hands.
