There’s a delicate line we must walk when it comes to our blood sugar, hormones, and energy levels. If we aren’t consuming enough protein and carbs, or we’re simply not getting the right amount of nutrients, we can experience an unhappy body. Unsurprisingly, this affects the quality of our sleep. This is where pro-metabolic bedtime […]

The 5 latest K-beauty trends you’ll adore
When it comes to skincare, Korea has always led the way. From snail mucin, mochi and glass skin, to ginseng, toner pads and sheet masks. I’m here for it all. It looks like we’re going to experience a lot more Korean skincare in 2025 (thank you, trends). I am squealing on the inside, trust me. […]
Lessons in love
It’s hard to go through pain and trust that it’s meant for you. It’s even harder to let go of something that felt so real – something that felt like home. But what’s the hardest of all is holding back from punching people who tell you to stop crying, stop listening to Favourite Ex on […]
My favourite books of 2024
This is becoming one of my favourite yearly traditions – aside from the self development reflections, of course. I’m learning what the perfect balance is between fiction and nonfiction. My favourite books of 2024 were a happy mix, and I strengthened my love and appreciation for memoirs. In 2023, I read a total of 10 […]
Saturated fat – a misunderstood macronutrient
If you type “is saturated fat good for you” into Google, I bet I could tell you what you’d find. The simple answer – it’s bad. As someone who has always been a huge fan of milk, cheese, cream, butter, and just about anything else dairy or meat-related I could get my hands on, hearing […]
Dear, long distance best friends
Dear long distance best friends, I miss you. 2024 was a chaotic year for me, to put it lightly. Please do read all about it. The hardest transition when moving home was leaving all of the beautiful people I’d met behind. What sucked even more, when I got back to Perth, was my best friend […]
A reflection of 2024: My intentional life of chaos
I’ve come to the realisation that I may subconsciously attract chaos into my life. We all feel the magnetic attraction to the New Year – the opportunity for change, new beginnings, a fresh start. A chance for us to wipe clean all of our mistakes and poor choices of the previous year. Because it’s January, […]
Are infrared saunas better?
Recently, a new sauna opened up in my local Leisureplex. My boyfriend had been dying to take me there, but I’d always preferred using an infrared sauna (which this one wasn’t). Unable to tell if this was because of the magical effects of innovative detoxification I’d previously experienced, or just delusion and clever marketing, I […]
My holy grail skincare products of 2024
I’ve discovered some absolute keepers in the skincare and beauty world this year. I attribute it mostly to the endless hours I spent on YouTube, but what else is one supposed to procrastinate with when there’s laundry to be done? There’s a common theme associated with this year’s list – hydration. When I got home […]
Make it happen
There aren’t many feelings that suck as much as not having control over your life. I know I don’t speak alone when I say that I not only struggle to know what I want, but I also fail to follow through when I finally find something that I do. Doubt creeps into my mind and […]
