It's been over a whole year since I last even looked at this site, let alone sat down to write! I thought a great way to come back is with a classic, something many of us have done over the years which is a birthday reflection post. I remember doing one of these when I [...]
Before I go into this post, I just want to preface it by saying that I’m writing this in a low mood state. Writing is cathartic and I’m hoping by the end of this post I’ll feel lighter, but just to warn you, in case you too are in a dark place right now, that [...]
Since deciding to go on a no buy for the entire year, I really wanted to get back into my favourite hobby of reading as well as trying to dedicate my time to more productive things. To see how everything else went in January, see my check-in post here. Today I wanted to talk about [...]
This is a fun and weird time of the year. If you are someone who celebrates the holidays, there are a lot of exciting events coming up and some things to look forward to. Of course, with all of these events comes a range of stress and planning but let's not go there right now. [...]

May 4: ApologiesSaying sorry is really hard, don't you think? There's been so many times in my life where I've scrimped on my apologies, despite the fact I really hate it when other people do that. Learning what to say and how to act when you're wrong is really difficult and it's something that has [...]
May 28: PraiseIsn't it awkward getting praise sometimes? I know, like a lot of people, that I often struggle to accept praise - especially when it really matters. Praise is something that is actually pretty important to me though. It's a thing that stems from childhood, getting feedback and comments on my behaviour or work. [...]
May 28: ChaosWe all know by now that I'm a worrier, a stress-head and a chronic overthinker. Although this does cause a lot of issues in my life, it has allowed me to develop some skills in the art of calming a chaos. As I always say on this blog, I'm still learning so my [...]
