A New Chapter
The voice and music calls

Since my mother passed away last September, so much has shifted in my life. The transition has been immense.
Being an only child with no living parents has created a deep inner shift—a paradigm change that I’m still adjusting to. I have missed my mom, and often find myself having conversations with her; especially about the mundane parts of my life that only she would have ever really cared about.
but through it all…something has arisen.
It feels like the beginning of something new.
One of the most powerful changes has been my return to singing. Since January, I’ve released two singles, and it genuinely feels like my life is turning in a new direction. I’ve been loving the process of working with my voice, writing songs, learning music production, and more recently—teaching myself to play the guitar!
I’m having so much fun.
And I’m following the calling to do more.
I didn’t realise just how much of this was inside me.
Over the past five years, I kept hearing a quiet whisper to sing—but I was always too busy with other work to give it proper space.
This past month, I made a big decision to step away from teaching and facilitating my dance and sound healing classes. I chose to slow down—to make space for singing, for learning guitar, and for where this new path might lead.
At the same time, my design agency has grown rapidly since the beginning of the year. It’s thriving and demanding more of my time and creative energy, which has naturally shifted my focus too.
Letting go of my dance and movement work has not been easy. It’s still very much alive in me, and I’m staying open and curious about how it might evolve in the future. One shift I have noticed is that I’ve returned to my own personal conscious dance practice—often in the quiet hours of the early morning or late at night.
There’s something sacred in that. Something just for me.
This is where I am now—listening, learning, and trusting the unfolding of this next chapter.
The voice calls.
It says… sing
Slow down
Be still
Learn guitar.
Focus.
Love yourself.
Ground.
Mother Earth.
Feel your roots.
Unearth what is within you.
And so we see how this all will unfold!
Staying curious and open for the journey.

Leigh, whatever you touch turns to gold and I’m excited for the new journey in your life!
Thank you so much for these lovely words! :)
Thank you for sharing this and for reminding all of us to take a look at our lives to see what may need to go and what may need to be invited in.
Thank you also for sharing about your mom and how you’re adjusting to her not being there.
Thank you Lara, yes what a journey we are all on with having to constantly let go and let new things in. x
