Cheryl’s Podcast: The Pinnacle of White Privilege
This week a new BBC Sounds podcast series was released – You, Me & R&B, presented by Cheryl Cole. The...
This post is quite difficult for me to write, the feeling still feels raw. Then again, there's no better time to write it when I'm going through it myself - the grieving process. Very recently, my Grandad passed away from cancer. Something that us as a family we're expecting for so long, but it still hurt and broke our hearts.…
Spread love and smile until its contagious... If you know me well, then you know that this is one of my mantras. If we come at everything we see, do or think from a place of love then the world can change before our eyes. If we smile at everyone we see, we can only create positive impact. If we…
When you fall pregnant, you’re inundated with everyone’s opinions, advice, horror stories and warnings about how your life is going to change and relationships/friendships are right at the top of that list. I am rapidly approaching the milestone of being a first time mum for one whole year. So, let’s have an honest chat about whether becoming a mum has…
I'm a believer in continuous improvement. I believe that there is always room to make little fine tunings in my daily life. It could be something as simple as adding an extra task to my routine, remembering to put the recycling out, reading more or cleaning my makeup brushes more often (a very tedious task). Now, I'm not saying…
Life can be sent to try us sometimes, yesterday was one of those days for me. I had commitments to honour, commitments I was excited about, commitments which would accelerate the growth of my business and my mission to create impact…and I didn’t fulfil them. Now, I could give you BS excuses – this got in the way, or that…
I may well be preaching to the choir here, as bloggers are the probably the people most likely to keep a diary and document the day to day goings on in their lives, however it's something that I am really quite geeky about and will bang on about to anybody who'll listen. I filled in one of those 'A Line…
So, a week ago, I did it. I gave up my maiden name, the one that’s always been the same as my Mum and Sister. The one that’s seen me through years of happiness and heartache. I could of kept it, of course I could, but I wanted the same name as my daughter and if we’re being honest, I…
I knew when I found myself suddenly single at the age of 33 after a nine year marriage that I was probably going to face some uncomfortable experiences. The first (and probably worst) one was telling everyone about the divorce. Then there was the finding somewhere new to live and going financially solo. And finally… plucking up the courage to…
Let's start by saying it's 2020... we are in a time when people can be whoever they want to be and everyone celebrates them and the people who 'judge' do so in secret because they are drowned out by the noise of those who support people being people!!! Hell yes to this! (I just want to add here that I…
Dear Donna, I was wondering if you might be able to help me with my problem. I think others might have this problem too but aren’t honest with themselves as to how much of a problem it is to them. I have a really toxic relationship with my mum. She says she loves me, but her actions aren’t those of…
