Why I Prefer Having a Smaller Friend Circle

Why I Prefer Having a Smaller Friend Circle

I’ve been thinking a lot recently about friendship.

What does it really mean?

When I was younger, I used to eagerly surround myself with the brightest, most interesting people in the room. The ones that seemed ‘cool’ and like they had it all together. We’d become fast friends, and all of a sudden do everything together.

As I grew through Sixth Form and uni, I realised that these interesting…

How To Manage Anxiety

How To Manage Anxiety

I once heard an analogy about mental health, and it’s always stuck with me. Imagine yourself as a clock. I know, a bit weird. For a person with anxiety, the time is always 10 to the hour. Their brain is in the future, always worrying about what’s ahead. They spend time imagining scenarios that haven’t even happened yet. For a person with depression, the time is always 10 past the hour. Their…

My Morning Routine For Success

It’s a bit of a funny time at the moment – as the UK enters into its fourth week of lockdown, naturally a lot of mental health issues have been on the rise. Being unable to go out, having little to do, and most of all, not knowing when this situation will be over, can really take its toll on us all. Having a routine is so important for consistency and feeling like you’ve achieved something – most…

How to Overcome Trauma

How to Overcome Trauma

A few months ago, something pretty traumatic happened to me. I’ve been a little silent on my blog and on Instagramsince, but here isn’t the place for me to go in to details – instead, to offer support to those suffering the same. I’m sure almost all of us have had a traumatic event happen to us at some point in our lives: a break-up, divorce, a death in the family. It can seem like it will never…

The Book that Changed My Life

The Book that Changed My Life

Normally, I’d be the first person to scoff at headlines like this. How can one book change your life? I’d think, whilst my eyes glazed over re-watching Love Island for the 27387308th time. But, honestly? I’ve never had a single thing make such an impact on my life.

Rewind 2 and a bit years, and I was at my lowest point ever (I’m writing a separate full post about my experience with depression, so…

5 Reasons to Be Single

5 Reasons to Be Single

I grew up on a diet of Disney films and fairy-tale romances. I lapped up rom-coms where the boy and the girl always get together in the end. I thought that one of the main goals in life was to find the perfect relationship, settle down, and live happily ever after.

But, recently I’ve been thinking. Why are there so few films about how great it is to be young, fun and single? (‘How to Be Single’…

How to See Paris on a Budget

How to See Paris on a Budget

Let’s face it, Paris is a pretty expensive place. Since it’s my 4th visit to Paris, I think I’d had my fair share of staying in a bougee hotel in the centre and since I’m not currently working, I tried to save as much as possible on this trip! Here’s my top tips and tricks for seeing Paris on a budget.

  GETTING THERE

My flight was about £90 return from Manchester airport (cheapest I’ve seen…

More than Just A Number

More than Just A Number

For a while now, blogging and Instagramming has been taking a bit of a back seat in my life. I’m not sure if you’ve noticed my periods of silence on Instagram, my lack of blog posts – but inspiration has been running dry for the past few months. I’ve been feeling a little lost amidst all the noise of the blogging world. It’s not just that I’ve been lacking direction in blogging – it has also, for…
