Hello Friend!
It’s been a few weeks since my last newsletter—sorry about that! I’ve been in California with the Calm team, working on making the world happier and healthier, you know, the usual—but now I’m back and ready to return to sending out regular updates!
Speaking of updates, my YouTube channel is going from strength to strength. I’m closing in on one million views over the last few months, which is absolutely wild 🤯
A big thank you if you’ve watched, liked, or shared any of my videos—it means so much.
I’ve just released a new sleep meditation designed to help you drift back to sleep with ease if you wake up in the middle of the night.
Check it out here 👇🏾👇🏾👇🏾

In addition to all the meditations for Anxiety, Stress and Sleep, I’m currently working on a meditation for managing chronic pain, which I’ll be sharing soon.
If you have any requests or suggestions for new meditations, I’d love to hear them—What’s a challenge you’d like to tackle with mindfulness? Let me know, and I’ll do my best to create something helpful.
OK, back to California…
I flew in to join the Calm team at the beautiful Terranea Resort. The whole company was there, and it was the first time the entire narrator team had been together in one place. Spending time with Tamara Levitt, Jay Shetty, Jeff Warren, and Mel Mah was inspiring. Every conversation felt like a masterclass in wisdom and perspective, and it turns out Jeff Warren has some awe-inspiring moves that came out on the dance floor 🕺🏻😅
The focus of the event was Calm’s vision for 2025: to become the most impactful consumer healthcare company in the world. It’s a bold goal, but it's definitely within reach with such a passionate and talented team.
My personal highlight was leading the final meditation session outdoors under the California sunshine. It was the perfect moment to pause, reflect, and breathe before the evening’s shenanigans when my focus on health flew right out the window.
After a few weeks of big ideas, dance floor moves, and soaking up the last of the Californian summer, I’m back just in time for the start of the Australian summer!
I’m excited to get back to what matters—creating beautiful meditations and sharing simple, practical tools to help us all navigate life’s challenges.
See you next time!
