  • Let's talk about gratitude.

    Gratitude is something I am very passionate about and so I wanted to have a bit of a chat about it and think about how we can all practice gratitude in our day to day lives and why it's important and beneficial. I also talk a bit about journaling and give some journal prompts linked to gratitude to help us get started.

  • Being a writer and creating stories with Sheena Wilkinson.

    This is a very special guest episode with the wonderful Sheena Wilkinson. Sheena is a Northern Irish writer and in this episode we discuss her career as a writer and what this encompasses and she shares how she brings her stories to life.

  • Time management and staying motivated.

    We all have a lot on our plates and it can feel too much at times. We need to find a way to effectively manage our time in order to ensure we get everything done that we need to do as well as what we want to do. It's important to find a balance between work and play to battle burnout and to stay motivated. 

    My episode 'Productivity and hustle culture.'

Let me know your unpopular opinions and pet peeves!

  • Being 'that girl' and having your life together.

    There's been a big trend on social media of being 'that' girl and seeming to have your life together and everything looks very aesthetic and perfect. In this episode I discuss how this concept can be helpful and why it's trending but also the damaging effect it can have on us and why we need to remember that what we see on social media isn't real life.

  • My Impossible List and goal setting.

    This episode is all about goal setting for big and small goals and I think about why setting goals is helpful. I discuss what an impossible list is - similar to a bucket list except when you achieve a goal you make it bigger and better so your list is constantly evolving. I also tell you what's on mine and share some of my dreams and goals with you. Let me know what's on your impossible list!

  • Starting University and the reality of 'Freshers Week'.

    As I have been at the University of Edinburgh for a few weeks now, I thought it could be fun to chat about the reality of Freshers week and all the highs and lows that come with starting University. It's not perfect but I've been having a lot of fun. I give you some details about accommodation, meeting your flat mates, starting lectures and tutorials and managing your time as well as homesickness and coping with this. I also talk about how it can be so exciting to explore and navigate a new place and as always provide a very honest insight into my experiences.
