Goals: Reflecting on August and September and Establishing October and November.

Another two months have been and gone already, and I honestly don’t know how it has happened. But in my usual form, we’re going to be looking back on my goals I set for August and September but also setting two new goals for October and November.

Read two books and listen to one audiobook.

I didn’t even touch an audiobook or a physical book in these last two months. This is a goal that I didn’t…

Can you have a guess as to what today’s blog post is about? Yes, it’s all about gluten and if I’m still gluten free which is an important topic for me to address, because I’ve avoided gluten for quite a few years but things are very slowly changing.
If you didn’t know (but you should, I talk about it all the time) I have several intolerances that include gluten, soya, carrots and potatoes. I have…

Four Mindset Changes To Help You Get Back On Track.

Writing your first post after almost six weeks definitely feels strange but I’m glad to be back at it. If you have been following me on Instagram or even reading my previous posts, you’ll know that I had an incredible trip away to New York and Toronto but during this time, I chose not to blog and even when I came back, I took a scheduled break. Today’s post is Part One (of two) about how I’m…

The New York and Toronto Series: Activities in Toronto.

While this won’t be the last post in this series, this will be the last post about what sightseeing adventures and activities we would like to do in both cities. Today I’m talking about activities in Toronto. 
Okay, this post is technically a cheat because Whitney and I (but it was more Whitney because she is MUCH better at this) have planned out the majority of our trip but I wanted to write…

Reflecting on my 2018 Goals.

I’m getting a head start on New Year’s Resolutions this year because I’ve already started to think about the next year ahead. Before I commit to my new goals, I wanted to reflect back on the goals of 2018 and how changing my method worked out so that’s exactly what today’s post is all about.  
Instead of having to go back through my goals this year, I’ve listed them all down below, and below…

How To Plan For Christmas Gifts: Reducing My Gift Wrap Waste.

During the Christmas period, I get great pleasure in wrapping presents. It’s like therapy to me and I could spend hours getting all wrapped up in it (Get it?) As I have become more eco-conscious over the past year however, I’ve tried to look at what I’m contributing to the environment so today’s post is concentrating on rethinking my gift wrap for the Christmas season and how I’m planning to…

How To Plan For Christmas Gifts: Budgets, Savings and List-Making.

Now that we are into the glorious month of November, it’s the perfect time to start thinking about Christmas, or maybe you already have. Either way, it’s important to lay the foundations of how you are planning to plan Christmas this year and every year after this. In today’s post, I’m going to talk about some of the most important factors you should consider not only for your loved ones, but…

My Issue With The Term #GirlBoss.

The phrase “girl boss” is one that has blown up only over the last few years but it’s something that a lot of women can relate to and have attached themselves to. Being your own boss is what many people strive for, but I have a problem with the phrasing of it so that’s what I’ll be discussing in today’s post. 
The term #GirlBoss first became popular in 2014 when Sophia Amoruso published her…

Three Intentions For Me (#4)

Happy November everyone! Now that we have Halloween over us, I’m so ready to get in the Christmas spirit (Society is not letting me just yet though). I’m back with another monthly intentions where I not only look at goals for the coming month, but I also look back on intentions I set for myself the previous month. So before we get into this month’s intentions, let’s look at last month’s. ❤ Run…

(Blogmas Day Eight) Life Update...

What I haven’t shared on social media… (yet) So it’s Blogmas Day Eight, it’s Wednesday morning and at 2am, I arrived back in Belfast via the Dublin bus because I was in Rome! Yes, I went to Rome and I went completely on my own. Maybe not such a huge deal to some, but I only went on my first adult holiday this year to Finland and Russia so going from my first adult holiday to my first holiday on…
