Ever since the year dot, I have been amessy so and so!
I was born messy, lived and messy and thought I would die messy!
That’s until I read the book by the infamous Marie Kondo called The Life Changing Magic of Tidying!
It is honestly like a miracle!
I have gone from being a messy, disorganised person who struggles to keep her space tidy and clutter free to someone who is gracefully flowing through life with a clean, tidy and fresh space. No more clutter. No more tidying. No more mess. No more heavy energy. It’s incredible!
Instead of the usual piles of stuff that need sorting and overflowing things out of drawers, I have endless breathing space, happy flowing energy all around and a lightness and a joy around my being that is amazing.
Here’s a before and after pic of my wardrobe area. I cannot begin to describe the difference that adopting Marie Kondo’s technique has made in my life!
My “AFTER’ pic
My ‘BEFORE’ pic
Watch the video for more info on this approach, how it’s changed my world and how it could change YOURS!
If you’re someone who needs to create more space in life, this technique is for you. The joys of decluttering spread out into every area of you life. Your world will transform for the better, I can promise you that!
I would love to know your thoughts in the comments below.
Are you a hoarder? Do you struggle to get rid of stuff? Have you tried Marie Kondo’s approach? Do you love it? Hate it? Have you tried something else? Please share – i would love to know how you feel about this.
With love and endless joy,
Mills xx

Okay, okay, I know it’s a crazy title. But you’ll see why I used it in a moment!
During the last week, I’ve been on the most amazing journey of self transformation! It began with feeling like I was a in a rut in my business. A dark deep nasty rut. I started to feel unsure about what I was actually doing and I started to lose confidence in my direction.
THIS BROUGHT UP A WHOLE LOAD OF SHIT FOR ME!
I imagined the words that my onlookers would be saying: ‘Huh, look at her! Claiming to be a confidence coach and she hasn’t even got confidence in what she’s doing!”
THIS MADE SHIT WORSE!
So I took action.
I hired an incredible Spiritual Coach to help me clear some energy (the amazing Kaitlyn of http://www.kaitlynglyndon.com/) – I cannot recommend her work enough. And I got input from an Intuitive Coach about the energy around my (business) names.
THEN THINGS SHIFTED! BIG TIME!
I suddenly saw that I had been holding back in my business! I wanted to integrate ALL parts of myself – my spirituality, my sunshine, my Divine feminine, my relationship with God/Source, my light, my love, my happiness!
AND FINALLY OWN WHAT I DO – GUIDING WOMEN TO STEP INTO THEIR LIGHT!
SO I CHANGED MY BUSINESS NAME TO…
THE SUNSHINE GODDESS!
No more playing small! The Sunshine Doctor (my previous name) was a rather half hearted attempt to be who I am; yet I was still hiding. With the ‘Doctor’ I was trying to bring in through the back door that I am actually a Doctor (as I always said I don’t believe in titles).
But I have just peeled back another layer! After working with a fabulous business coach (the brilliant Elyse http://www.elyse-anne.com/), I’ve seen that I am still hiding the fact that I am a Doctor – a PhD (not medical; means I’ve studied for many a moon (and a few more moons!) at Uni creating new thinking and missing many nights sleep!).
I typically don’t use my title because I always say that I don’t believe in titles. I hate any form of hierarchy or status. But I’ve now come to see that this isn’t about thinking i am above (or below) anyone. It’s really just about honouring who I am.
So here we go – I AM A DOCTOR EVERYONE!
And by claiming my title, I’m just stating a fact. No ego. No bravado. No ‘I’m better than you’. Just a plain simple fact.
So it seems The Sunshine Goddess is one part of me! I’m also a Communication Expert, a Fairy Godmother, a Rainbow Princess, a Published Author, a Best Friend and much more!
So I have now bought the domain: www.drmelissawright.com (note – I’ve literally just bought this so there’s nothing there yet!)
Owning my name. Owning my truth. Owning the facts.
+ What parts of yourself are still waiting to be owned and celebrated by you?
+ Do you feel worried about showing your high achievements for fear that you might look like your full of ego?

After leaving my ‘proper job’ this summer and preparing to travel abroad as part of my year’s leave, I decided to honour my value of music and creativity and treat myself to a beautiful guitar. After some fast learning about what guitars would be best for my situation, I decided upon a rather expensive but very beautiful guitar – it seemed that this guitar would not only be perfect for travelling but that I would never want for another when/if i stayed in a place for a long time, as this guitar is just a beauty!
After putting my hands on it, I found that to be true and quickly fell in love with it – I bought it with a child-like excitement and quickly became obsessed with it!
I called this beloved guitar Angel and treated it like I would my own child!
After some European adventures with Angel, I was then packing eagerly for my upcoming trip to India. I was playing Angel and started telling my close friend the following things:
“You know what, i’m not going to share this guitar with anybody”
“I’m definitely not going to take this guitar to the beach”
“I think I might just keep this guitar in my room”
You get the flavour! And you know what, this flavour is SO NOT ME! I was listening to myself saying these things; and I was shocked, thinking:
1. I am not the type of person to NOT share my things with others and
2. Guitars are for sharing! They are an instrument for groups and enjoying by all!
So as I continue to play, bemused by my comments of how I am not going to be sharing with guitar with anyone, I feel something starting to scratch my arm. I look down and to my absolute horror, I see that the whole front face of my guitar is TOTALLY SMASHED IN! I couldn’t believe my bloody eyes! This was 2 nights before I was due to fly to India!
Initially, I couldn’t speak for shock! I realised what had happened – the suitcase that I’d put high up in my campervan had fallen on my luggage when I had driven off and unbeknownst to me, had smashed the guitar in. However, very amazingly, I quickly started to get my head around what had happened and began to actually sigh with relief – no more did i have to go around with this super precious guitar that i would let nobody touch! I was free to get a cheap and cheerful guitar which i could enjoy and share and not spend my whole time worrying about it! I was free to be me!
But that once that thing we fear comes to us, we see the fear for what it is and learn the truth about what is happening to us in the situation. I believe that i was so scared of something happening to this guitar that I actually brought this situation of the guitar being smashed to myself /the guitar through my own worry. Then, once my worse nightmare was in front of my eyes, I saw that it wasn’t actually so bad after all. In fact, like so many ‘bad’ things that happen, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise.
When I get back to England. I will get this guitar fixed. And i will love it even more as I can be free to share it and take it wherever i want without worrying what will happen to it. All things can always be sorted out; even blessed guitars. And now that it has its own war wounds from life, like we all do, I will love it all the more.
Whilst being in India, I have now got myself a new guitar. It does the job and is fine being travelled around the country in all sorts of transport, weathers and situations! Here I am with her – yet to be named! Any ideas?

This is a call out to any of you who are endlessly putting everyone and everything first except yourself!
It is so easy to get caught in the trap of ‘doing good’. Of putting others first and of not spending enough time or money on yourself. Well I am here to call you all out on this and to say that:
And yeah, that’s a tweetable link and I’d love it if you feel to tweet it 🙂
The details of what you need to do for your growth are dependant upon what YOU need. For example, it might be that you need to make time for prayer in the morning. Or a swim. Or perhaps you know you need to do an art class. Or learn that instrument that’s been sitting in the corner of the room getting dusty. Or maybe you just have to get away for a week on your own. Or go visit family or friends in that far away country. Perhaps you need to sign up to that University course or learn that massage training. Whatever it is, you will know in your heart what it is, as it’s probably the case that you’ve been longing to do this but never committing to it for some time.
So if it’s important to you, why then have you not been doing it?!
Well, it’s often the case that we tend not to make enough time for ourselves. We can get consumed with trying to help others, which is great but sometimes this is at the expense of ourselves. But here’s the thing:
And yeah, you can totally tweet that too if you want!
This is why coaches and therapists tend to have their own coach and therapist, so they can do their own work on themselves in order to grow and expand themselves so they can better help others.
So, as we move towards a New Year, it’s a perfect time to take stock. To remember who you really are and what is important to you. And to make sure that as you think about now and the New Year, you think about YOURSELF!
If you want some help with working out who you are and what you want in your life, I would love to chat with you. My Unleash Your Selfish Diva/Dude month package could be just perfect for you. You can check it out here.
So sunbeams … what do you want to make happen for YOU NOW and in 2015? What is important for your own growth? And how would your life and those you love and care about be enhanced if you made time for this? I would love to hear your comments below.
