Social handle: @jadeegillett

WHEN DID YOU LAST FEEL HAPPIEST?

When Goldie, Button and I go on our daily walks together.

 

WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE SOUND?

The sound of waves crashing and the birds singing.

 

WHAT IS IT THAT MOST ATTRACTS YOU TO SOMEONE?

Genuine kindness and a smile.

 

WHEN DO YOU MOST FEEL YOUR SENSE OF POWER IN BEING A WOMAN?

When we are faced with difficult situations. I feel as women we want to fix and heal in these moments we put the fear to the side and resolve what is in front of us.

  

HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT AGEING?

I feel excited, I’ve noticed since being in my thirties that I’ve become a lot more content with where I am in my life and to just trust the process. Instead of in my younger years worrying about the small things which to me now, I don’t worry about. I’m excited to become even more in-tune with myself as I grow older.

 

WHAT'S YOUR FAVOURITE MARKING ON YOUR BODY?

It might end up being my new scar on my wrist. I only recently broke it and had to have surgery which has led to a large scar. Right now, I don't like it.

“I try to add little moments to my days to bring me back down to earth, being out in nature as much as I can each day, looking up and witnessing the beauty around me and remembering that life is beautiful and how lucky I am.”

IS THERE ANYTHING YOU BELIEVED TO BE TRUE AS A GIRL ABOUT BEING A FEMALE THAT YOU HAVE FOUND TO BE TRUE WITH AGE?

Just that women are really capable of anything!

  

WHAT IS YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH YOUR MENSTRUAL CYCLE?

Since I have had a natural cycle for the last 3 years, I have found that my cycle has been regular, however my cramps and flow has gotten heavier. I also experience very bad migraines each cycle which is never fun. I’ve grown to embrace how I feel when I am bleeding and I definitely listen to my body. I also find that I have more energy when I’m bleeding and find myself feeling rejuvenated and ready for the weeks ahead.

 

 

HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT YOUR CONNECTION TO EARTH?

I feel like this is something that I am always trying to improve on. Being present and in the moment can be hard with every day busy life and running a business. However, I try to add little moments to my days to bring me back down to earth, being out in nature as much as I can each day, looking up and witnessing the beauty around me and remembering that life is beautiful and how lucky I am.
