7Bone ft. Moving Mountains

It’s been a few years since I have eaten at 7Bone Burger Co but last night my social media was blowing up with the announcement of ‘Daisy’s Revenge’ – their brand new vegan burger. This burger features the infamous Moving Mountains patty, entirely plant-based and packed full of goodness and nutritional content. Topped with vegan cheese, minced…… Continue reading 7Bone ft.

Tenerifé: Iberostar Grand Salomé

This Summer I had the absolute pleasure of a week away with my family to a beautiful, luxury resort in Tenerifé and I really made the most of it! It’s an adults only resort and I’d imagine it caters mostly towards romantic breaks but it’s also perfect for families with adult children – like ours!…… Continue reading Tenerifé: Iberostar Grand Salomé

Cocktails at Turtle Bay

I was born a fussy eater and stayed that way right through until  my early twenties – it’s crazy to think I used to pretty much only go to Italian restaurants for dinner when, now, I would much rather chow down on a Mexican feast…or Indian, Thai, Japanese…I am so hungry as I write this.…… Continue reading Cocktails at Turtle Bay

Get Your Set Noticed in Six Steps

Once you’ve shot your SG set, you will likely find yourself waiting a good few months until anyone can see it. This will also depend on the speed your photographer works at (hopefully you’ve been communicating about this so there are no unpleasant surprises or hold ups!) but once the set has been submitted, accepted…… Continue reading Get Your Set Noticed in Six Steps

Being Self-Employed is Hard.

Being self-employed is really hard. You might get to ‘be your own boss’ but only sort of, you still have clients and people you work for just instead of one ‘boss’ to impress, you have an indefinite amount. You may even get to set your own schedule but then, maybe not, as you need to…… Continue reading Being Self-Employed is Hard.

The Plight of The Perfectionist

Perfectionism was something I always felt was used as a humble brag. In school, when they advised us for job interview techniques and that we’d likely be asked our negative traits, I was always told to turn that into a positive by saying ‘the only bad thing about me is that I’m a perfectionist’ and that…… Continue reading The Plight of The Perfectionist

Steps To Stop Procrastinating

Procrastination is a very common symptom of anxiety. It’s a more mild form of avoidance and can be a pivotal point in whether your day is productive or not – there’s the same amount of hours in each day but sometimes we can get so much done and other days barely get out of a onesie…… Continue reading Steps To Stop Procrastinating
