The ACE Way : 30 Day Check-In Challenge

We all say we’re going to look after ourselves better. That we’re going to slow down. Check in. Listen to ourselves. Stop running on empty.

Ask what we need. Say no when we mean no.

Actually include ourselves in our own lives.

And then… life happens.

A couple of days later we’re back doing what we’ve always done.

Putting ourselves last. Saying yes when we mean no. Running ourselves into the ground. Noticing what everyone else needs, what needs doing, who needs us, what might go wrong.

And somewhere in all of that, we forget to ask…

How am I?

What do I need?

It’s not that we don’t care about ourselves. We’ve just become so used to noticing everything and everyone else that we genuinely forget…

I’m here too

That’s why I created The ACE Way™ : 30-Day Check-In Challenge.

This isn’t another self-care challenge to get right.

Most of us don’t need another 30-day challenge where we feel like we’ve failed by Day 6.

We need the chance to practise coming back to ourselves without turning it into another thing we’re supposed to be good at. Because this isn’t really about becoming better at self-care.

It’s about practising the act of remembering…

“I’m here too. What do I need?”

That’s what The ACE Way™ is.

Awareness → Notice what’s happening

Check In → Catch where you’re leaving yourself out

Empowered Choice → Ask what you need

It’s not a formula for fixing yourself. It’s a practice for including yourself.

Here’s what the 30 days will actually look like:

Every day you’ll get one simple invitation to check in with yourself.

Sometimes it will be a question.

Sometimes a tiny challenge.

Sometimes something playful.

And sometimes it will simply be a moment to stop and notice yourself.

We’ll move through five different kinds of check-ins:

 ME Check-Ins

Simple prompts to notice how you are, how you’re feeling and what you might need.

Tiny Self-Support

Small physical or practical acts that say, I matter here too.

Little ACE Adventures

Playful invitations to find or do something just for you.

Pattern Interrupts

Catching one of those automatic moments where you might usually leave yourself out and trying something different.

Joy & Receiving

Letting yourself notice, enjoy or receive something good without needing to earn it.

There will also be an optional deeper reflection once a week if you feel like exploring what you’re noticing.

And we’ll have a community space where you can share your discoveries, photos, little wins and experiences with everyone doing the challenge alongside you, if you want to.

Some days it might look like…

Pausing at midday and asking… “How am I feeling right now?”

Stepping outside barefoot for three minutes.

Catching yourself apologising unnecessarily and choosing not to. Finding a little gift from the universe: a feather, a rainbow, or a bird appearing at just the right moment.

Or asking… “What would make today 5% easier?”

That’s the practice. Not grand gestures or huge acts of self-care.

Just tiny moments of remembering… I’m here. In my life. Right now.

And there’s one really important rule.

No catching up.

If you miss a day, or more, you haven’t failed. You don’t need to go back and complete everything you missed. You just come back.

Because that’s the whole point of the practice.

The challenge isn’t completing 30 perfect days.

The challenge is remembering to come back to yourself.

Again. And again. And again.

You don’t have to become the world’s most accomplished self-supporter in 30 days. And you don’t have to prove you can do it perfectly.

You just get to practise.

And here’s what happens when you do… you start noticing yourself while your life is actually happening.

You may begin:

Supporting yourself doesn’t have to become another heavy personal development project.

It can be light. And it can be playful.

It can also be as simple as sitting in the sun for three minutes.

And maybe, little by little, you start to feel more like yourself again.

Why this matters so much to me?

I started noticing the little moments when I was leaving myself out.

The moments I said yes when I meant no.

The moments I kept going when my body was asking me to stop.

And slowly, I learnt how important my own Check-In was.

That’s what I want these 30 days to give you.

Not a promise that you’ll transform yourself in 30 days.

Just 30 days of practising not to forget yourself.

Think of it like this.

Most of us have been living in a house where we’ve made everyone else comfortable, but we forgot to give ourselves a chair.

We’ve been standing in the corner making sure everyone else has what they need, wondering why we’re so exhausted.

The ACE Way™ is the practice of remembering:

“Oh. I live here too. I’m allowed to sit down.”

It’s not about kicking everyone else out.

It’s simply about including yourself in the room.

Come and do the 30-Day Check-In with me.

For 30 days, we’re going to practise something incredibly simple… remembering ourselves.

Some days you’ll do the check-in. Some days you’ll forget.

Some days something tiny might help you understand yourself in a completely new way.

And some days you might just put the lemon in your water.

It all counts.

Because this isn’t about becoming a better version of yourself.

It’s about giving the version of you who is already here a little more room in your life.

The ACE Way™ isn’t 30 days of becoming better at self-care. It’s 30 days of practising not leaving yourself out of your own life.

Thirty days of remembering: “I’m here too. What do I need?”

Thirty days of coming back to yourself.

Because maybe supporting ourselves doesn’t start with doing more. Maybe it starts with remembering not to leave ourselves out. And maybe the version of you that’s been waiting to be remembered doesn’t need you to be perfect. It just needs you to come back.

Come Hang Out With Me.

Let’s see what happens when, for 30 days, you remember to include yourself too.

Let’s practise together. 💛
