Living in a bridal bubble…
My reflections for other brides-to-be… It’s just over one month since we said I do and we are still firmly inside our post wedding bubble… many newlyweds might say nothing changes, but for us life has got so much nicer. Being married to each other feels different, feels magical… I’ve been saying to so many…
Why I’m not ashamed to be a budget bride, and neither should you…
Plus my tips for finding those bridal bargains… As a 2024 bride, my social media feeds are full of incredibly extravagant weddings, luxurious hen parties, boujee bridal showers and exotic honeymoon locations.

If you’ve been living under a rock over the past few months, you’d be forgiven for missing the news on XL Bullies in England and Wales… but the reality is you probably haven’t. Especially if you’re a dog owner. And even more so if you’re the owner of a pup that might get caught up…
When did living become so unrealistic?

Eat the frog – a principle to beat procrastination
When one of the directors I work with revealed his quote to live by was “Eat the frog” – I had no idea it would lead to a whole new way of working. It wasn’t until a month later, when one of my closest friends (that’s you Rochelle!) revealed she had started a book called…
