When I got really into podcasts in 2022, I listened to an Oprah’s Super Soul episode that featured author Elizabeth Gilbert. I’d heard of her before – I love Eat Pray Love and Big Magic. Watching my life unfold ever since I left University has been both beautiful and jarring. I’ve always felt unsettled – […]

The best protein sources for hormone health
A few years ago, when I was first learning about hormone imbalances and diet, I came across pro-metabolic eating. This way of eating is centred around foods and practices that aid in a healthy metabolism – eating within 30 – 60 minutes of waking up, consuming easy to digest foods, and eating enough to fuel […]
The routine that saved my skin after travelling
After months of using what could only fit in a small plastic bag, nothing over 100ml, my skin was looking tired. The week before I landed back in Australia, I ordered some new skincare products online and sent them home. Let’s just say I went a little overboard with the spending. But after trialling these […]
Finding home
I’ve officially been back in Australia for a week. At home, if I can call it that. It’s a strange feeling and one I wasn’t prepared for. I kept feeling like I should have a return ticket booked for London and I shouldn’t be unpacking all of my suitcases. My floor is still covered in […]
Start lifting those weights, girl
Whenever you think of an addicting feeling, I’m guessing the gym doesn’t come to mind. I hope to change that. I’ve been weight training (on and off) for about six years. More recently, when I have started to train consistently, I’ve noticed that I am now addicted. Addicted to the four physical and mental benefits […]
Why it’s okay to outgrow your friendships
When I was young, my mum told me that the most important people in one’s life are their family. This made sense to me – growing up shy and anxious, I never made a lot of friends. Once I reached my mid twenties, and started to find my confidence, I realised that I could (and […]
Summer skincare favourites
Before the arrival of summer, I needed to compile a favourites list (for both you and I) of skincare for the warmer months. I have oily, acne-prone skin, so I usually always use products that are on the lighter side. But, I do change it up depending on the season. For summer, I focus on […]
4 herbal teas for clearer skin
Even before I moved to England, I loved tea. It’s probably because my family loves tea, so I grew up with it. Just like the allure of bookstores, I find myself always being pulled toward the tea aisle at a grocery store. All of the pretty packaging and the different herbal concoctions. In the past, […]
The in-between time
Whenever it comes time to write my personal development posts, I get so excited. I usually always have an idea in mind. But this week, I’ve felt like there are too many things to say while there being nothing to say at all. I’ve been writing and re-writing. I don’t know where to start or […]
Lip products you need to try
I’m not someone who is hugely into makeup, but one thing I do love are lip products. My lips are not naturally pink, so I appreciate a little tinted number. I’ve also always loved the glossy look, but despise that sticky feeling that most lip glosses give you. I’ve collected quite a lot of lip […]
