Let’s be honest: “being productive” has practically become a competitive sport. There are endless podcasts, hacks, tools, and systems promising to transform us into hyper-efficient machines who somehow also get eight hours of sleep and do sunrise yoga. I’ve tried a fair few of these tricks myself. Some stuck. Others… well, let’s just say my...
I’ve always envied those people who seem to glide into the weekend as if they’ve got a villa booked on the coast. You know the type; they log off on Friday afternoon, toss their laptop bag aside, and somehow transform the next 48 hours into a curated, sun-dappled escape. For years, my weekends were more...
Every generation thinks the ones after them are a little bit odd. Baby Boomers side eyed Gen X, Gen X rolled their eyes at Millennials, and Millennials like me can’t quite get over the fact that Gen Z decided side parts are a crime against humanity. But, if I’m honest, the kids are onto something....
Lately, you might have heard a lot about this thing called “slow living.” The idea is to step back from the hectic rush of modern life, take a breath, and focus on what truly matters. It’s becoming a bit of a lifestyle trend, one that promises more peace, more presence, and more meaning in the...
With the weather turning icy and the sun disappearing before dinner, no one can really blame me for diving under a blanket and rewatching old series like it’s an Olympic sport. The top of my list this winter? No other than The Office. Somewhere between the mugs of tea and the increasingly dramatic Dwight vs....
There’s something about winter that makes everyone want to press pause. As soon as the sun starts disappearing earlier and the air gets that icy bite, it feels easier to swap nights out for sweat pants, soup, and back-to-back episodes of whatever’s trending on Netflix. I completely understand the appeal. In fact, I lean into...
When I first launched my packaging business, I had this naïve idea that my work would speak for itself. If the products were strong, the service was reliable, and the pricing fair, the right clients would just… show up. I soon realised that’s not how it works. Especially in an industry like packaging, where people...
Not everyone is built for winter. Some of us, like swallows, are simply wired to seek the sun, instinctively turning our faces towards warmth, open skies, and that golden-hour glow. If you’ve ever found yourself plotting a beach escape the moment the weather dips below 15°C, you’re not alone. Enter the new tribe of “summer...
There’s nothing quite like enjoying a delicious meal with the perfect glass of wine. When the flavours of your food and wine align just right, it can turn an ordinary meal into something truly memorable. The good news? You don’t need to be a sommelier to get it right. You can start pairing food and...
