Sage Events Byron Bay

22/07/2024

OUR PHILOSOPHY ~ Our journey is rooted in authenticity and a deep connection to the land and the people around us. Born and raised in the heart of Byron Bay, our ethos is about creating memorable experiences that go beyond the plate.

We believe food is a powerful connector—a way to bring people together, to celebrate life’s moments, and to inspire a healthier more mindful living.

Leading a business form the heart with integrity, grace and kindness is the greatest way forward.

We have a strong commitment to community, creativity and kindness. I believe in supporting our local community not just through our social practices, but also by fostering connections among our guests. Kindness is a thread that weaves through every interaction, every meal, and every event we are a part of.

Mother Earth is my biggest inspiration. Our connection to nature is strong and we always have consideration and care for her at the forefront of all that we do.

I’m so proud of the evolution of Sage and it truely is only the beginning. I know we will have a major ripple affect within our local and global communities and that makes me feel incredibly humble.

Thank you for being a part of this incredible journey. I am truely so grateful for it all. T x

Reflecting on the past 2 years and how it feels to have a hole heart for the first time in my whole life ❤️
I love harder, I feel deeper, I think clearer, I am calmer.

To most this may seem insignificant but it has birthed a whole new world, a whole new life for me. It has propelled me so far forward in ways I’m not sure I’ll ever be able to explain. It has given me the strength and courage to push through hard times and to trust in the unknown.

And it has helped me see the world through a new lens. One that finally feels light and joyous.

It is a strange and deeply spiritual feeling, one I am still figuring out how to express through words. It has ignited a deep sense of trust and knowing of who I am in this world and who I want to continue evolving into.

A promise to myself to always be true, always be authentic and to show up with grace, kindness and integrity.

Whilst I still feel hurt, sadness and at times, deep sorrow, I know there is always lightness if we just allow it in.

There is magic inside of me, just like you. We all have magic within, we just have to go inside to find it and let it radiate out for everyone to enjoy and experience. To be your beautiful & confident self is a true gift to the world.

Love T x

LEAD FROM THE HEART ~ Rising up to the challenge and becoming a woman in business, in my opinion, is one of the most courageous things you could do in life.

The level of empowerment you need cultivate, to stand up for yourself, and face many confronting conversations and situations, is something that doesn’t come easy.

It takes a level of courage and breaking down big fears to be able to come from a place of calm and with more ease.

I want to help pave the way for female founders to rise up with integrity and lead from the heart. To be able to share the vulnerable side of life and business and not waver from their moral compass to create success.

As a leader, to truely embody what we believe in and what we put out to the world, is one of the most beautiful qualities you could embody. Sharing from the heart not the head will make you go further in life, not just externally but with a sense of internal peace most people constantly seek.

There is a new wave of female founders coming through in business and I have been incredibly fortunate enough already to connect with so many along this journey.

Always be mindful of your actions and approach each moment with integrity, and a deep awareness to consciously learn and evolve from every situation.

This is only the beginning for Sage and I.
I’m building a solid foundation built on authenticity and trust, both in my personal and professional lives.

Inspiring others on their own journey is a big part of my purpose and I truely know this now. Not a day goes by where I don’t feel intense gratefulness for the land, the sea and the people around me. Thank you for being in my world and inspiring me every day. T x

MINDFUL EATING ~ It’s been 2 years of healing after heart surgery. So much has changed in my world. Internal and external. Each week I notice a shift in how my body feels.
I can’t tell how much I have grown and evolved throughout this journey, I can only show you in how I express myself in the world.

Food was always a major focus on the many years I was on this journey to understand what was happening to my body. When I found the hole in my heart I learnt that it wasn’t what was going in to my body, it was that nothing was able to process properly. Waste was filtering through my body/heart, going in to the hole, up to my brain, and reacting with enzymes, causing havoc in my body. My liver and kidneys were working over drive and everything was starting to shut down. Closing the hole has helped me heal but it wasn’t everything. We then came to understand that I had a leaky brain (so classic) 😅 simmilar to a leaky gut but worse.. there were liaisons in my brain which were leaking toxins.

For me, mindfully eating has been a slow and gradual evolution. I have learnt so much about the body, food, our environment and how these all impact our overall health.

I have learnt that true health is different for everyone because we are all such individual beings. Choosing good quality, wholesome food, creating an environment where your nervous system can thrive, and choosing to educate yourself on how to live with as little toxins as possible truely makes all the difference.

Remember that everything takes time. This journey has taught me patience. Patience I never knew I had. It has given me a greater understanding of how our bodies work and what we need to help it thrive. I love that I now get to share this with everyone I meet on my Sage journey. I am truely grateful for everything life has thrown at me. It has given my life so much purpose and meaning and that is a true gift. Thank you x

SIMPLE ~ I value simple food. I love to use what our Mother Earth gifts us. Using wholefoods to create really yummy flavours and textures.

Our ethos weaves through everything Sage does. We hand pick most ingredients form our local farmers which helps us reduce our footprint. I want Sage to tread as lightly as possible on this earth. Sustainability is so important to us and looking after our environment is something we promise to always do.

We don’t need to over complicate a dish when we choose ingredients that come from as close to the source as possible. The flavour is more abundant, the nutrients are dense and it gives you this feeling of peace when you eat this way.

I love creating with everything from the land and sea 🐚 T x

Who I am as a person translates into who Sage is. To authentically building a brand, it must come from the heart and soul of who we are at our core.

I am a lover of Mother Earth, in touch with the essence of beauty, and I like to spread kindness through everything I touch.
I am grounded and am constantly seeking internal peace.
Nature is my biggest inspiration and I am in awe of raw and earthy materials.
I am not an over consumer and the older I become, the more I realise I don’t need a lot to be happy.

I value connection and love sharing the wisdom I have acquired with those around me.

I am a deep thinker, spiritual to my core and I have an overwhelming amount of love inside of me.

My beliefs are true to me, yet I would never force those on anyone else.

Beauty surrounds me. It’s in the places I visit, the circle of people around me, it’s in the food I create and it’s who Sage is. A truely beautiful business with so much heart.

Everyday I feel incredibly grateful that I have the opportunity to create such an amazing and abundant life. Not a day goes by where I don’t feel thankful ❤️ T x

2 years since a bunch of strangers touched my heart. 2 years of it being whole for the first time in 30 years. 2 years of loving so deeply and fiercely. 2 years of my internal and external world shifting, changing and healing.

I finally have some time to process what this week means to me, some space to think and breathe. To reflect on the journey that was and the journey that still is.

To have been gifted the opportunity to feel so deeply, to embrace a deep internal awareness, to always see the good and the light of the world. To have felt this all with a hole in my heart. To now be spreading the magic I know is inside of me with everyone, and everything I touch.

Everything feels different now. The water isn’t so mucky and I have this abundance of clarity that was never there.

I am still me, I just have a piece of me that was missing my whole life 🤍

Always looking forward. T x

CURATED CLASSES ~ I’ve just booked in my first workshop, so what better time to launch!

These workshops will no doubt evolve over time, but I want them to be fun, exciting, wholesome and educational, with of course good vibes.

I’ve also just moved into my new commercial kitchen space in the Byron Industrial Estate and I know this will open so more many windows and doors of opportunity.

Lots of amazing new things in the works here at Sage HQ. I’m looking forward to opening this up to everyone and not only inspiring through my cooking but teaching too 🤍

Can’t wait to see you go good times! T x

EVOLUTION ~ to evolve means to gradually develop. True evolution takes time. It’s every small step, small movement and small action that accumulates into really big changes over time. Sometimes life pushes us to evolve fast and other times it comes at a slow and gradual pace. Learning to be ok with whatever season you are in and the pace you are evolving can feel really challenging. This is something I’m sure most of us can relate to.

For me, I am constantly learning to trust the process, reminding myself to enjoy the whole journey and to self regulate when I start to float off or become overwhelmed and want to give up.

Evolution is a big part of who Sage is. It is undeniably a significant part of life and business for everyone. Without evolution we stay stagnet, we see no changes and we feel stuck in all areas of our life. This internal feeling of stagnation leads to discomfort and over time, dis-ease.

I am constantly seeking ways to evolve personally and this always carries through professionally.

Honestly, business is a roller coaster.
You can’t really prepare yourself for the feelings and emotions you will endure until you are really in the thick of it.
Some days I am absolutely flying and others I’m really down in the dumps, feeling overwhelmed and stressed.

These moments can tear us down and push us to our absolute limits, BUT they can also build us up, make us stronger and give us incredible strength to keep moving forward and cultivating that beautiful fire we all have inside of us 🔥

Life is a truely phenomenal gift. To feel so deeply is something to be incredibly grateful for. T x

HEALTHY FOOD ~ I believe in balance. I believe that eating wholefoods from the land and as close to the source as possible is where true health lies. I believe that health comes from a multitude of factors, mind, body and soul. I believe knowledge is power and learning about food is one of the best investments you could do for yourself.

I believe we all have different views, different perspectives and have all walked a different path. I will never be one to force my views or beliefs on anyone, rather educate and inspire through my authentic practices.

I love sharing this journey with you all and it humbles me to know how many people it has inspired already. Thank you for always being here and supporting me. I love all that Sage is and all that it is yet to become.

Nguthungulli or Julian Rocks is a sacred Aboriginal site of the Bundjalung and Arakwal people of Byron Bay. There are many Dreamtime stories that signify the strong spiritual connection to these rocks, the land and the sea.

In one story, “Nguthungulli”, Father of the World, who created all the land and the waters, the animals and plants, now rests in a cave at Julian Rocks.

Bundjalung people used to walk to Nguthungulli to do ceremonies when the water levels were lower 7000 years ago.

These rocks have always had a strong spiritual pull for me. When I need, I walk the sea shores and soak in the healing powers that these rocks radiate.

Spirituality is deep inside of me. It’s not something I chose, it was something I was born into and has grown with me over time.

I am so grateful for my home. I’m grateful for this land that we get to share and for the deep rooted connection to this special place.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. T x

2024 is my year of Empowerment ~ Enjoyment ~ Ease
Last year was an incredibly huge year for Sage. I made some amazing connections, worked really hard behind the scenes to streamline our systems and processes, brought some amazing people onto my team who have helped Sage and I grow incredible amounts, and planted seeds which will continue to grow and flourish over 2024.

Although I want this year to feel effortless and easy, I also have big goals and ambitions, so I will be intentionally finding balance as I navigate through those opposing feelings.

As I ease into this new year I’m beginning to feel the excitement for all of the opportunities on the horizon. Spending the next week getting clear on what the next moves for Sage are. Always remember
~ you can make a change, any day
~ you can set a goal or take one step closer to a goal, any day
~ you can set an intention, any day
~ you can start that thing, any day

I hope this new year brings you more joy than ever before. LOVE T x

CATERING ~ has been the fundamental foundation, the starting vessel for Sage. At first it was organically growing, each job would lead to the next and it was quickly becoming more than just a side hustle.

Until last year, after having my heart surgery, a complete rebirth of energy, a changed perspective on many things and the fire that was burning deep within me, ignited into an intense flame.

Food is one of my great loves. I love leading and inspiring others to live a life of good food and healthy habits. I know that everything Sage evolves in to will always have an element of nourishing food.

Health is wealth. Without it we have nothing. I love that Sage is inspiring others on their own foodie journey and igniting their path to a more healthy lifestyle. Love T x

Spring is already here and summer is just around the corner. With the change in season means a change in the kind of produce that is available from our local farmers.

Like Mother Nature adapts to each season, so does our body. I believe that eating seasonally is much better for us. We naturally crave juicy fruits and abundant salads which tend to hydrate our body and make us feel lighter for those warmer days in the sunshine.

I’m excited for this season change and to add some new, vibrant and fresh food to our menus.

I am constantly inspired by Mother Nature and am always letting her guide me on what to create. I can’t wait for the vibrancy of this summer and to share the beautiful food we plate up.

BIG love! T x
