by Alison

the biggest mistakes you might be doing with self-care

Your days are stressful. You just want to do something for yourself, so you reach for a bit of “self-care.”But afterwards, you actually feel worse. (Too much chocolate, anyone?) Yep — I’ve been there too. But what if I told you the biggest mistake you might be making with self-care is actually very simple to change? And that doing so could leave you feeling genuinely refreshed instead of depleted? Looking after ourselves and treating ourselves well is important — I believe that deeply. ...

THE BLOG!

Alright friend — welcome.

This little corner of the internet is where faith meets real life. Where we talk about becoming the woman God created you to be… while also building a life that feels beautiful, intentional, and aligned.

Here, we don’t separate soul from strategy.

Because your God-designed life isn’t just about one area — it’s about the whole picture.

Whether you’re rebuilding your mindset, working on healthy habits, planning your next adventure, figuring out money, or quietly asking, “Lord, what’s next for me?” — you belong here.

This is a space for women who want depth, growth, beauty, discipline, freedom… and Jesus at the centre of it all.

I encourage you to start at the about page and follow along on Pinterest and Instagram! @alisonaghassi

So glad you’re here x

AMSTERDAM 🌷🇳🇱 What an experience! It was so beauti AMSTERDAM 🌷🇳🇱
What an experience! It was so beautiful and interesting. Filled with so much history, breathtaking architecture and weeds and nudity…

What a combination. 

My family roots are 100% Dutch. It’s my grandparents home from both sides. It’s special to me and I loved being there. But the spiritual darkness that is there is real. 

Who else has been and what was your experience?

8 years ago I moved abroad to the US from Australi 8 years ago I moved abroad to the US from Australia.
And 2 months ago my husband, dog and I moved to Germany. 🇩🇪 

So what’s next for us? ✨

-I am learning German, it’s hard so feel free to encourage me lol

-I won’t be able to work for a while so I’m LIVING IT UP (mostly with pastries)

-Aldrin has some interviews coming up for work (he is German so he can start working straight away)

-We are living with friends, in their built out attic and it has been the best way to start in a foreign country - instant community, pizza nights, bbq’s etc..

-We are loving being a part of a smaller Church, feels already like family 

-In a few months we will start looking for our own place, which will make it feel real that this Country is home

-Attainable travel in Europe is a dream come true and I’ll be sharing it all!

-We feel so privileged and blessed to be living in our 3rd Country together 🇦🇺🇺🇸🇩🇪

-Big life transitions are hard (miss family and friends everyday) but thankfulness has been the key for us 

-Lastly, Aldrins cousin made us a cake to welcome us here  to Germany from Australia and then the US🥹 what is my life?!

THINGS I WISH I’D KNOWN BEFORE IMMIGRATING TO THE THINGS I WISH I’D KNOWN BEFORE IMMIGRATING TO THE USA 🇺🇸 FROM AUSTRALIA 🇦🇺 
⬇️
-Marrying a permanent resident is NOT the same as marrying a US Citizen. It took me 2 years to be allowed back into the US. Marrying a citizen is much faster, knowing that in advance would have been helpful lol 😑

-Every state in the US is almost like a different Country, they have their own culture and laws, unlike Australia where they are much more similar

-Public transport is so different in the US (unless you live in a major City.) So many people I know there have never been on a train before 🤯

-Not having free medical insurance is just like in the movies, it’s hard to plan financially and save, I’ll forever be grateful for Australia’s medical system

-The work/life balance is probably my least favourite things about living in the US. US employees are actually not always legally entitled to paid holidays, but on average employees do provide on average around 5-10 paid vacation days a year. 

-Thanksgiving is the best! We love it and want to incorporate it into our traditions 🦃

-Writing dates backwards I am used to now, but it took forever! My birthday is 28/7 but in the US it is 7/28…

-Americans are sO good at championing each other and celebrating peoples success, it’s such a beautiful part of their culture! 🙌🏼

-Squirels look just like they do in the cartoons 🐿️

-Lastly, don’t ask for a side of ‘chips’ with your burger, you will be disappointed 😆
