We did it. On Saturday, we finally did it. The day has come and gone by so quickly. I won't go into the intimate details of our day, as it's private and for our closest people to share with us only. But it was magical. Everyone says that their wedding day was the best day… Continue reading I married my best friend!

Let’s discuss lifestyle, health, and what it means to be living in this world today…
Treat your life like a video game
I was thinking the other day about how our lives are like a video game! Let's see what I mean... Pay attention to the health bar In video games, there is a health bar usually at the top which allows you to see how your character's health is doing. That drops into the red, and… Continue reading Treat your life like a video game
You’re not unhappy, you’re tired
I’ve woke up each morning feeling increasingly tired. But instead of thinking “I’m tired”, I’ve felt unhappy. This is burnout. This is exhaustion. You can sleep each night and still feel tired. When you’re mentally, emotionally, physically, or spiritually drained, it takes more than just one or two good nights' sleep to fix it. You… Continue reading You’re not unhappy, you’re tired
Biracial Hair Journey: the struggle is real
Is it just me, or do you feel like you hate your hair nearly every day? As a biracial woman (white and black Caribbean) I want to embrace my natural hair. To let my curls run free and wild. But I’m really struggling. They’re not… healthy? They’re not curly… enough? And I don’t know how… Continue reading Biracial Hair Journey: the struggle is real
How to Raise Your Vibe (confidence and joy)
We are halfway through 2022, ahhhhhh! At this time, I like to reflect on what worked and what didn't. To review my goals, make changes, and pat myself on the back when needed. I wanted a new focus for the second half of the year, especially as I'm really happy with the first half. I… Continue reading How to Raise Your Vibe (confidence and joy)
The formula for an easy life
The older I get, the more I realise that to have an easy life, you need to do two things: Work hard on creating the right systems and want less. Easy. Done! Not quite. In order to get to a place where your life feels "easy", you need to work incredibly hard to make it… Continue reading The formula for an easy life
How I fell in love with reading and am able to read more books
I love to read. Nowadays, it’s pretty normal for me to read every day. I can read at least 2 books a month. This is not a brag, it’s just true! But it wasn’t always this way. This is something I’ve been able to do only in the last maybe 3-4 years consistently. Here is… Continue reading How I fell in love with reading and am able to read more books
I was wrong
What I wrote on my blog two years ago is probably wrong. Some of it. Maybe a lot of it! What I’m saying this year could be wrong two years from now. Or tomorrow! The point is, I’m wrong. And so are you. I hate this because I like getting things right. I like being… Continue reading I was wrong
A rant about progress
Why do we only care about progression on a large scale? Or drastic change? Or material gain? Having left my job to work in the school next door, I felt like I had to work hard to explain why I moved. Is it a lot more money? A different position? A promotion? Why are you… Continue reading A rant about progress
What I’ve learned about confidence
Am I a confident person? Yes and no. Things come along to tell me that yeah, actually, you are confident. But in the day-to-day, it doesn't really feel that way. And maybe that's just it. Confidence isn't some huge amazing thing that you either have or you don't. It ebbs and flows. There are moments… Continue reading What I’ve learned about confidence
