Live your best life ❤️

I’ve been creating a new bracelet design with the affirmation ‘live your best life’. It was something my 20 year old nephew had written on a text message about a completely random chat we were having, but it stuck with me and really made me think. My hubby wondered what it actually meant. He didn’t …

Why do I compare myself to others so much? ❤️

I’ve got a problem. I keep comparing myself to other people. Quite frankly it’s annoying and I need to stop it but I can’t. I hear myself doing it, recognise that I’m doing it, get cross with myself for doing it, but still bloody do it! What’s that about! I’m a grown women who is …

My happy place ❤️

So I’m writing this in my happy place. It’s difficult to describe exactly why it is my happy place but this is exactly why it is my happy place. Sounds confusing I know but I will try to explain and also why I feel happy places and the like are so important for your personal …

Where to start……

So, I like helping people. I dont know quite where it started. As a child I was very timid and quiet, I would go bright red if anyone talked to me and struggled in social situations. I know this will be a shock to anyone who knows me now.... I am probably quite the opposite …

Tackling self doubt. ❤️

I like to write, well I thought I did. I thought that I had a lot to say, a lot of stuff whirling around in my head that needed to come out, to become real by being written down. I was wrong. I found it surprisingly hard. I had the pen and paper all ready …
