Why I built Create & Cope
The loud ticking noise
It started on an ordinary afternoon, spending the day with a friend and her little boy. Nothing went wrong, we enjoyed a lovely afternoon playing in the park. But I came home and sobbed. There was a loud noise felt around my body, the ticking sound was so loud. I was the only one who could hear it though.
The Falcon, the pushchair, and a box of jewellery
On letting things go to make room for what’s coming.
I sold a campervan, my pram - the crutch that had held me through three difficult years, recovering from a c-section, and a jewellery box. The latter has provided funding for this very website for a year. Guided by the hand of my little one, pointing to me, to let things go, to create space for something new.
