Intentional Living

How to set intentions for a happier life

Ready to create a better life?

Hi, I’m Kate, I am a psychotherapist creating workbooks and courses for mental health and wellbeing, to help you set intentions and move into a bright future.

Intentional living is a lifestyle approach where you make conscious, deliberate choices that align with your values, priorities, and long-term goals. Instead of simply going through the motions or reacting to life’s circumstances, intentional living involves taking control of how you spend your time, energy, and resources to create a life that feels meaningful and authentic to you.

The Intentional Living Workbook

A downloadable intentional living workbook to help you set gentle, holistic intentions to align your actions with your true self, and transform your life!

  • In this workbook, I’ll take you though useful steps to set gentle, holistic intentions for every aspect of our life, to ease forward with more awareness.

  • Peek at the trajectory you are headed, and see if we want to make any tweaks.

  • Reflect on your year ahead with intention.

  • Discover one to three main things that have minimal effort and maximum impact on your year ahead.

  • You’ll have a list of fruitful, beautiful, intentional, aligned actions to take gently as you move through the year.

  • Includes 35 therapeutic journaling prompts to set your intentions across your life for the year ahead.

We do have power. We do have agency. If you want to reset, to return home to yourself, your wisdom, your truth, and bloom in a life you love, let’s start!

Key Elements of Intentional Living

  1. Clarity of Values: Understanding what truly matters to you—whether it's family, health, creativity, or personal growth—and using those values as a compass for your decisions.

  2. Mindful Decision-Making: Making choices thoughtfully, rather than out of habit or societal pressure, to ensure they support your bigger picture.

  3. Purpose-Driven Actions: Setting clear intentions for your days, routines, and habits so they contribute to your long-term goals and desired lifestyle.

  4. Simplification: Letting go of distractions, clutter, or commitments that don’t serve you, creating space for what truly matters.

  5. Presence: Engaging fully in the present moment while being mindful of how today’s actions affect your future.

Benefits of Intentional Living

  • Greater sense of purpose and fulfilment.

  • Reduced stress and overwhelm.

  • Stronger alignment between your daily life and your deeper aspirations.

  • A clearer sense of identity and authenticity.

“We cannot direct the wind, but we can adjust the sails” Irish Proverb

Is it time to shine?

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us.

We ask ourselves, ‘Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?’ Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you.

We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

Marianne Williamson

Heads up! This is not for you if you are currently in acute distress, suicidal, self harming, or if you have a current unmanaged serious mental health condition - all of which are better addressed in counselling/psychotherapy.
