Hi everyone, I hope you all survived Christmas ok. It can be a stressful time for many, including me in previous years! I had a better time than previous Christmases as I was much more relaxed, having done all the food preparation the day before. Made lunch super easy on the day. Today I am tidying up loose ends and geting organised to fly to Ghana tomorrow night for my drumming and dancing trip 🪘🕺🏽- my nervous system is still waiting to get excited, but it will probably happen at the airport or on the plane. Had too many other things to think about and organise! Below is a photo of the place I will be staying with the other drumming students - looks terrible, no? 😆 Thank you all for a wonderful few months on Skool since I started this community - I've really enjoyed the virtual cuppas, the varied discussions, the support and connection! I've also enjoyed recording meditations and holding mindfulness sessions - I know they have dropped off a bit lately, I still haven't hit on the best time - if you go and vote on the post that talks about voting, it will be easier for me to decide ;) I think I will have internet in Ghana, if so, I will still drop into the virtual cuppas if I can - but you are all able to join them without me being there, so please do keep it up! They are on Monday mornings 8am and Wednesday evenings 7pm (Sydney time). Just click on the red "Join" flashing at the top of the community page at the time, or you get there via the Calendar page. Otherwise I will catch up with you all when I get back at the end of January. Wishing you all a happy new year - here's hoping 2026 is way better than 2025! Lots of love Kath x

Hi all, if you have a paid membership and you get emails that say your payment has declined and you need to update your card, even if your card is fine and your bank account shows that money is still being withdrawn for Skool. I have asked for help and contacted the Skool admins. I will let you know when I hear anything. Many apologies! I hope your Xmases are smooth and stress-free. Remember to breathe, and if things get too much pop into the Classroom and relisten to any of the guided meditations or drumming meditations to relax :) Lots of love Kath

Hey Kath, I'm receiving emails saying my payment has declined and I need to update my card. My card is fine and my bank account shows that money is still being withdrawn for Skool. Any idea what's going wrong?

Thanks @Angelika Erpic for joining me tonight - albeit over the phone thanks to tech issues! I really enjoyed guiding this journey to review 2025 and look forward to 2026, with a little oracle card reading thrown in for fun. You can acces the recordings (in three parts) in the Classroom at your leisure - but I recommend doing it before the end of 2025. If you feel called to share some of your experience in the comments I would love to hear it. Happy solstice!
