MORE THAN A NICHE : HOW EMBRACING ALL OF YOU CAN BUILD A STRONGER BRAND

 If I had a pound for every time I heard the phrase “You have to niche down to stand out”, I’d probably be typing this from a hammock in Bali.

TURNING 40 WITH INTENTION | MESSY MAGIC & A BIT OF MANIFESTING

 Turning 40 doesn’t scare me, but it does feel like a bit of a milestone. A little nudge from the universe saying, “Hey, this is your one precious life—are you living it the way you really want to?”. I’ve got three amazing daughters who remind me daily that life moves fast. I’ve built a business from scratch, working with clients I love, all while squeezing in gym sessions, coffee-fuelled deadlines and the school run. I’ve also blogged my way through the chaos, writing about everything from fashion and baking to days out and those magical, mundane moments in between.

WHY I FINALLY SLEEP LIKE A BABY | ORIGIN HYBRID MATTRESS

Sleep and I just don’t get along. Or at least, we didn’t. For years, I have struggled with falling asleep, staying asleep, and waking up feeling like I’ve done a full workout in my dreams.

STOMACH TROUBLES TO FOOD FREEDOM | YORKTEST

It isn’t old news when I say I have had ongoing stomach issues for the longest time. From bloating to discomfort after meals, I always chalked it up to stress or just having a sensitive gut.
