New Beginnings
What the New Year means to me Not, "New Year, New Me". Not "New Year's Resolutions". Not trying to fix every "bad" thing in your life. Not going 100mph into every goal and dream you've ever had then inevitably burning out. Nope. No. Uh-uh. For me, the New Year means a clean slate. A fresh… Continue reading New Beginnings
15 Things I Learned in 2018
I can be happy when I buy (and own) fewer clothes! This is my lowest clothing haul year ever! I can produce consistent, interesting content, but I still have a lot of growing to do and that's OK.

It's normal to feel a little anxiety (or a lot, as I've experienced some years), or even depression at this time of year. It's daunting. It's overwhelming. Time… Continue reading Break It Down – Goal Setting for the New Year
Careful with the Grind
I'm sure that any ambitious person out there has heard these phrases: You've got to grind for success. You must hustle hard. Work, work, work! Hustle, hustle, hustle! But are these phrases really what we need to hear when pursuing our goals? Is "hustling" really the best way to achieve success? I think not.… Continue reading Careful with the Grind
Change the Narrative
I don't think I'm the only one who tells myself stories (and no, not because I'm an author). I mean the stories we tell ourselves about of lives and our Self. They can be labels, ideas, "evidence-based facts" or other, but there's a lot of things that we just accept and believe about our lives… Continue reading Change the Narrative
My Autumn Bucket List!
Since the start of summer, I've been writing seasonal "bucket lists". I've only completed two, but I really love the idea. It follows the strategy of intentional living; trying to do things, instead of just living life by chance. Instead, you have a list of fun or challenging or season-specific activities. This ensures you're excited… Continue reading My Autumn Bucket List!
Stages of Life
The stages of our lives can be very important to who we are or who we can become. I know that I've gone through many stages of life that have changed without my realising it - until I looked back and saw the transition. But what's so important about this? Why do they matter? Well,… Continue reading Stages of Life
