I got my first tattoo this week. When I told one of the boys I nanny (he’s 8) that it took 2 hours, he asked what I did in that time. I said I just sat there. He was completely baffled by the fact that I sat in a chair for 2 hours with no […]

It took me a while to write this post because like most people, I love giving out advice while simultaneously failing to take my own. After the seventh revision, I thought it was about time that I let go. Let go of the perfect list. And instead, give my most real and honest interpretation of […]

To all the women who have never orgasmed before (or just not with another person) – this one is for you. The best spin-off of the Lara Jean & Peter Kavinsky classic. One night I was sitting on my bed with my three best friends and we were talking about sex. As my friends were […]

Something I’ve been doing a lot lately is listening to podcasts. On the bus, tube; anywhere that gives me the opportunity to blank out the rest of the world. If you read this post, you’d know that my 2021 New Year’s resolution was to read 1 book a month. Last year, I went digital, and […]

This year I discovered what a situationship is. From the outside looking in, it’s easy to say – “if we’re not exclusive after 4 months, I’m walking away”. But in reality, that’s easier said than done. You grow used to the way it feels sleeping next to them, the way their hair falls over their […]

Welcome to a new series that I am considering – how to make your shitty day better. I won’t call it that, but for now it’s kinda catchy. If you are currently having “one of those days”, or even if you’re not, here are 10 pieces of advice to get you through today (and life). […]

Maybe it’s because she’s amazing, or maybe it’s because I remember this quote that she said on an interview, after a Vanity Fair photoshoot of her was criticised for showing too much skin. She explains that “feminism is about giving women choice. […]

The inspiration (& information) for this post comes from a book I have recently finished reading, called ‘The Defining Decade’ by clinical psychologist Dr Meg Jay. I gave a brief overview of this amazing book in a previous post, but I thought it also deserved to stand on its own. How many of you have […]

It’s crazy to think that 3 years ago, I had hardly read any books in my life (apart from the occasional novel about bears or a mandatory school curriculum book). In 2021, I made the New Year’s resolution to read 1 book a month. Although I only ended up reading 7 books for the year […]

In this week’s episode of sad, lonely and isolated… haha just kidding. Seriously though, it’s starting to feel like I am just talking about my life on a podcast. Today I am writing about the concept of change – in particular, moving to a new place – and how to embrace it. Change is hard, […]
