There is something I need to change if I want to move on, and this is what I'm doing in 2022.

Allow Yourself To Rest This Christmas | My Festive Message To You
It's that time of the year again! I'm sure you're sick of hearing it, but can you believe it's almost Christmas? We've been through a lot, collectively and individually, this past year and it's made things weird. It doesn't quite feel as magical and fun as it should, don't you think? Things are still up [...]
You Don’t Have To Let Them Ruin Your Day | Advice For Me and You
I wanted to write a short little post today because it's something I'm thinking about. It's something I've lived this morning and I thought it was a good lesson to share with you lovely lot, so here we are. You don't need me to tell you again that I'm an introvert, but it is relevant. [...]
Who Is In Control? | Separating Thoughts & Feelings From Action
As I'm writing this post, I can't remember specifically what inspired this thought, but I have a feeling it was either a TED Talk video or a podcast. Either way, what matters most is the lesson behind it - although I do believe in sharing your sources when you can! - so I'm going to [...]
Start Of The Week Scheming
I wanted to call this post ‘Sunday Scheming’ because that day marks the end of a week for me, and that’s usually when I get randomly inspired to change my whole life. However, it’s currently a bank holiday in England which means this week is having a later start than usual for most, but I’ve [...]
Are You Struggling To Find Meaning Right Now? Because, Girl, Same | Asking For Advice
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 [...]
Figuring Out What You Want | Lockdown Lessons & New Project Announcement
It seems as though all of the posts I have made throughout this year are inspired by some kind of revelation I'm having about my life (read: crisis) With a lot of spare time on my hands and not a lot of outside stimulation, I've been overthinking and revaluating more than usual. If you read [...]
Should Is Sh*t, Don’t Do It To Other People
As someone who runs this self-development blog, I'm acutely aware of the way that my content might make someone feel. I write about self-development and self-improvement so much because it is an area that I'm obsessed with. As I've mentioned before, most of the content I consume in my free time is within this field [...]
Just Let Them Be Right | A Note On Protecting Your Peace
I am quite an opinionated person. This was something that I prided myself on when I was younger, as I thought it made me sound 'strong'. Really, it just made me sound like a dickhead. Now there's nothing wrong with expressing your opinions, obviously. But have you ever met someone who explicitly calls themselves 'opinionated' [...]
How Do You Cope? | Let’s Talk About Coping Mechanism, Again
I spoke about coping mechanisms in my most recent post, where I was addressing one particular bad habit that I've developed over the years. While I don't want to get too repetitive here, I'm not quite finished with this topic of conversation. I've been thinking a lot about coping mechanisms, habits, and the things we [...]
