Navigating Adulthood – One Obsessive Thought at a Time
Update - April 2021 I'm re-reading this post in 2021, just over a week away from my 29th birthday, so I thought now would be a great time to re-share. I initially wrote this post as we started to ease out of Lockdown 1 (FFS), following months of having Radio 1 - specifically, Greg James,… Continue reading A Letter To My 10 Year Old Self
It’s strange to think that I’m already writing my review for my July Craft Gin Club delivery, but here we are. July’s box captures the summer vibes perfectly, and is inspired by the tropical vibes of Brazil, with a gin crafted from South America’s finest botanicals, some of which haven’t been used in gin before.… Continue reading Craft Gin Club Subscription Box Review | July 2020
When I wrote this post back in 2020, I had been thinking a lot about stand-up comedy and how much of a role it plays in my life.

I’ve wanted a… Continue reading Tattoo Tales

I for one am looking forward to how utterly shitfaced I’m going to get on new year’s eve this year, as I’m sure the rest of the UK - and indeed, the world - will. Out of all the… Continue reading June 2020 Wrap Up

I’ve grown up with cats my whole life, and every cat we’ve owned in my family was brought to us as a kitten, so I’ve… Continue reading New Kitten Care Tips: Four Things I Learned as a New Cat Mum
It’s that time again, folks. It’s time for another edition of The Therapy Diaries! Today, we’re looking at something a little different - my experience with hypnotherapy, which took place in 2015 during the run-up to my wedding to help me with my anxiety, emetophobia and (what was undiagnosed at the time but we now… Continue reading The Therapy Diaries 4 | Hypnotherapy
I originally wrote this post back in Summer 2020, when Covid-19 had fucked up pretty much all of our summers. Some of us managed to get away and enjoy a staycation or two, while others were lucky enough to get a cheeky trip abroad before they brought in quarantine rules - however, we did none… Continue reading Summer Throwbacks
