Hi everyone! 👋 For those who don't know me already, I'm Amanda, and I started Niche Space in early 2020. I'm back online after an- unplanned but necessary - break from socials.

Niche has still been ticking along with our beautiful community of members and some lovely newbies. A special thank you to the wonderful for holding the fort while we went overseas in July; the best medicine for our family after a particularly rough period.

I have endlessly debated whether to share the below. I know plenty of people who have MUCH worse things going on and know how fortunate I am to have access to the incredible healthcare system here in NSW. But it has had a huge logistical effect on us and, therefore, the business. So here it is, in a few paragraphs.

In August 2021, during the second Sydney lockdown I went to my GP after putting it off for a while. I had some strange symptoms but was convinced it was just pandemic-related stress.

An MRI later, I was diagnosed with a 12mm chiari malformation - a congenital defect where the brain descends into the spinal cord - and referred to a Neurologist and Neurosurgeon.

Following more tests, I was diagnosed with epilepsy alongside the chiari. Since November last year, I have been on antiseizure meds, which leave me feeling... well, pretty blah 😑

Add to that, losing my driving license as a result of the epilepsy diagnosis and relying on our friends, family and Uber to cart our three kids and me around, and we have been struggling.

It is what it is and it definitely could be worse. But I just wanted to say that I am eternally grateful for everybody's kindness and patience with me and my foggy brain 💜

Accepting children's book donations all week long. New or as new condition only please. Please see previous post for further info 🧡

📢 South Sydney locals! Please read images for info on how you can help us collect children's books for flood affected areas in NSW 📚 These will be delivered to the amazing .studio in early April 🤍
••
We have also been collecting gift vouchers, should you like to donate one of those instead. Supermarket, Bunnings, Big W or eftpos vouchers are one of the most direct ways to help those who have lost everything. These will be given to Steph from local Caringbah business , who will in turn pass them on to the local community. Her home and other premises in Mullumbimby, family, friends and the whole community have all been severely affected by the recent flooding.
••
It has been heartbreaking and humbling to watch Steph travel up north and see photos of the true level of absolute devastation. There is no quick fix. These communities will take years to recover. Please help us do what we can to help.

Flexibility was always a key part of my vision for Niche, although I definitely didn't envisage how essential and necessary it would become in March 2020.

We get it. We are a small business too! Everything we do is designed to be flexible and as tailored to you and your business' needs as possible.

With our app, keyless entry and 24/7 access, our space is yours to use, when you need it ✌️

Meet Bronte from 🤍

She is pretty special. One of those people that just makes you feel at ease and radiates patience and kindness. Bronte wants to share what yoga can do for you, not only physically but spiritually and psychologically.

We have had this amazing human with us at Niche for just over a month now and what a month it has been! From some truly special evenings to launch her residence at Niche, to her classes becoming busier by the day, to Sydney Lockdown 😑

Bronte is still running her classes both online and outdoors at Oak Park in Cronulla and 🤞 we can get back to studio sessions very, very soon. Head to to stay updated and find out more 🤍

Running a small business isn't easy at the best of times. Amidst a global pandemic... well, it is basically a bewildering series of WTF moments 😬

So this goes out to all the small businesses that we have had under our roof at Niche. To the other small businesses that we know of or have used over the past years. And to the businesses owned by friends and loved ones across Sydney/Australia/The World.

We. Did. It. 💪 We pivoted (I know, cringe), we evolved and we grew. We zoomed, homeschooled, cried and sanitised our way into the new financial year.

We learned the importance of supporting other small businesses and our community. We were reminded of how much we take for granted, the value of time with our loved ones and the fragility of "normality".

Oh, and we learned the power of sharing a good meme 😜

(Main pic is by the amazing and the rest are a selection of memes from the approximately 1000 I have saved on my phone since March 2020 😆)

Grateful for a beautiful day spent with my three favourite distractions ❤️

The East office ☀️

We have had a little reshuffle over here and freed up a full-time desk on this side 🙌 There are also a few days available on shared desks, so DM if you'd like to pop in for a coffee and a stickybeak 👀

As Gladys eases yet more restrictions today, I am filled with such a myriad of feelings. (Seems to be my default reaction to almost everything since Covid!)

Anyone else feeling the guilt of having loved ones overseas who are still in full lockdown? Yet also, *such* intense gratitude for our current situation here in Australia and the craving for other countries to be able to experience something similar in the not-too-distant future 🤞☘️

Oh... and if we could all travel a bit further afield (when it's safe to do so, obviously) too, that would be fantastic 😬

24/02/2021

What a couple of weeks! Lots of new faces and the welcome return of some familiar ones too ☺️ We really are so incredibly lucky to have a space brimming with such good souls ❤️

A big, warm welcome to our newest residents and a huge, heartfelt T H A N K Y O U to all the legends that have stuck by us over the past year 🙌

Bring it, 2021 💪💪💪
