It’s been more than three years since I first set up my own business and started to work from home. There’s a part of me that can’t believe it’s been that long, but at the same time a part of me that feels like I’ve always done it. And a whole lot of me that knows I could never go back to working from an office instead of working from home! Don’t get me wrong,…
For some reason society has taught us to totally undervalue rest. We grew up in a world where “doing more” meant being better.

Let me start by saying this post has been a long time coming. Like, at least a year, probably more. And really, a lot has happened to me over the past year or – if I’m really honest – two.

I’ve discovered that there’s a fine line between busy-ness…

It’s like instagram has become so saturated with the same content, the same “aspirational posts”, people just posting the same products, posing in the same places, using the same presets….
