    Remember the magic of flirting? That tiny spark w Remember the magic of flirting?

That tiny spark when eyes meet, a smile lingers a little longer than usual, a joke lands just right…

Flirting isn’t only about dating or seduction — it’s about aliveness. It’s play, curiosity, and gentle risk-taking. It’s letting someone know “I see you” without needing anything in return.

Somewhere along the way, many of us forget this. We get busy, guarded, or nervous. We start to think flirting means manipulation or pressure — when really, it can be light, warm and joyful.

I love helping people rediscover this art: slowing down, feeling at home in their own skin, using body language and words to invite connection, not to perform or impress.

💬 Try this today:

• Soften your face.

• Make brief, kind eye contact.

• Let a playful smile rise naturally.

• Stay curious — you don’t have to do anything more.

When you play with this energy, life starts to feel more connected, colourful and fun — whether you’re dating, partnered, or just enjoying human moments.

If you’d love more of this in your life, I offer workshops and coaching to help you feel confident, playful and magnetic while staying true to yourself.

With love and a wink 😉,

Cate 💖

    🎬✨ What a strange journey indeed… I’m so 🎬✨ What a strange journey indeed…

I’m so thrilled (and a little emotional) to share that I have a tiny part in the new documentary “Strange Journey”, which is out now in cinemas! It’s a beautiful and moving film about Richard O’Brien and The Rocky Horror Show, directed by his son Linus O’Brien.

Years ago, I had the privilege of interviewing Richard. He spoke openly about his struggles with depression, his experiences of being bisexual at a time when it was illegal to be gay, and his journey to finding peace within himself.

He shared how love from his son Linus and witnessing the kindness of people who gave up their holidays to perform surgeries in Africa helped him rediscover faith in humanity. Those moments brought him back to the simple truth that kindness is what truly matters. 💛

The team recently found my interview by accident and decided to include it in the film. Such a full circle moment!

And in the most heartwarming twist of all, after saying he didn’t believe he could love again, Richard went on to fall in love, marry, and now lives blissfully by a lake in New Zealand with his partner. 💕

2️⃣ Me with Chrissie Shrimpton and her daughter, Chrissie was featured in the film
3️⃣ Me with Richard Hartley (music arranger) and Sue Blane (costume designer)

Such a special experience and a reminder that even the smallest moments of kindness and connection can ripple far beyond what we imagine. 🌍

    📬 Little Stitches of Kindness and Love in Rotti 📬 Little Stitches of Kindness and Love in Rottingdean 🧶✨

Have you spotted the beautiful knitted and crocheted creations appearing on postboxes around our village?
They are made by people in our community who quietly give their time and creativity to bring a smile to anyone passing by.

These small, colourful cosies are more than just decoration. They are gentle acts of kindness and love, brightening our streets and reminding us that joy can come from the simplest gestures.

For me, noticing these tiny bursts of colour is part of what makes life feel rich and meaningful. When we slow down enough to appreciate small, beautiful moments, we begin to weave a life we truly want to live, one filled with kindness, creativity and delight in the everyday.

With love,
Cate
