I can’t believe it’s a year since I wrote the last post about choosing a Word of the Year! Each year, I choose a word to guide my intentions, aligning my energy with what truly matters.

In January 2024, I chose the word “Soulful” as my guide, and it truly shaped the way I approached the year. There were beautiful moments when I was able to slow down, simplify, and connect deeply with the present, allowing me to create heartfelt experiences and meaningful connections. However, there were also times when life’s pace felt relentless, and being soulful seemed almost out of reach. In those tougher moments, my word served as a gentle reminder to pause and realign, even if it wasn’t always easy. Looking back, I’m grateful for how “Soulful” anchored me and encouraged me to seek depth and intention in all that I did, even in the face of challenges.

For 2025, my word is “Sacred Sanctuary” – a reflection of my journey to create spaces, both physical and spiritual, that nurture, heal, and inspire. It embodies my dreams of building a house, creating healing spaces for my clients, and finding profound inner peace.

Sacred Sanctuary: Building a Home with Love

This year, Sacred Sanctuary represents building a house on the Equator in Nanyuki with my partner Amar – a space that we hope will be grounded in love, intention, and shared dreams. We envisage it being a haven where warmth, safety, and connection thrive, and where every corner reflects our values and the life we’re creating together.

Sacred Spaces: Healing Rooms for Transformation

Sacred Sanctuary also signifies the creation of two healing spaces – one in Nairobi where I currently see clients, and later this year, one in Nanyuki. These will be healing sanctuaries where clients can find balance, clarity, and renewal. Designed with care, these sanctuaries will foster transformation, offering peace and empowerment to all who enter.

Inner Peace: A Sanctuary Within

Finally, Sacred Sanctuary is about cultivating inner peace. As I create spaces of healing for others, I’m equally committed to nurturing my own sanctuary within – a place of stillness, balance, and alignment with my highest self.

Together, these facets form the foundation of my 2025 journey – an embodiment of the sacredness in creating, healing, and simply being.
