Welcome to Woo in the Woods
Hi, I’m Carol – a writer, wanderer, and recovering overthinker who has a knack for tripping over both literal roots and metaphorical life lessons. If you’ve ever found yourself seeking meaning in a bird’s song or pondering the universe’s messages while ankle-deep in mud, you’re in the right place.
Once upon a time, I penned The Clumsy Girl’s Guide to Greatness, a heartfelt nod to embracing life’s imperfections. That journey taught me that stumbling isn’t failing; it’s just another way to move forward. Now, I’ve traded in my heels for work boots (well, metaphorically – but sometimes not) and found myself amidst the trees, listening to the whispers of the wind and the wisdom of the woods.
Why Woo in the Woods?
Because midlife isn’t a crisis – it’s a chrysalis. It’s the time when we shed old skins, question long-held beliefs, and sometimes, accidentally start talking to rocks. Here, I explore the intersection of the mystical and the mundane, where daily life meets divine insight.

This space is my open journal – a collection of stories, reflections, and occasional rants inspired by nature’s teachings. It’s where I share the magic I find in the everyday: the serendipity of a well-timed breeze, the lessons from a stubborn weed, or the comfort of a moonlit night.
What You’ll Find Here
- Musings on Midlife: Reflections on the joys and challenges of this transformative phase.
- Nature’s Lessons: Insights gleaned from the natural world, reminding us of our own cycles and seasons.
- Practical Woo: Accessible approaches to spirituality and mindfulness, grounded in real life.
- Creative Explorations: Stories, poems, and prompts to inspire your own journey.
… all from my clumsy, awkward, sometimes profound point of view.
Let’s Walk Together
If you’re seeking a space that honours both the sacred and the silly, the profound and the profane, welcome. Let’s navigate this wild, wonderful midlife together – one step, stumble, and story at a time.
With love and a touch of woo,
Carol
