Scorpio Season: The Highlights and Lowlights

My favourite season for obvious reasons… I’m an Autumnal baby, born in the late 80’s. I was an early surprise for my parents, six weeks early to be exact. Born at 9pm on the dot on Halloween. I do like to make a scary entrance sometimes… maybe not so much as I’ve gotten older. “October 31 Scorpios are searchers after truth and…

Authenticity Is Your Superpower

This is an unexpected post that hasn’t been on my blogging plan. To be honest the last couple of posts haven’t been on my plan either. So, I’m just going to write from the heart on how I’ve been feeling. The past couple of years have been very tough. My health has been incredibly difficult to deal with at times.…

The 10 Mental Health Changes I Have Made

How we approach our mental health is so incredibly personal. What works for me, might not work for you, so please take my thoughts with a pinch of salt.

If you haven’t seen my Instagram recently, Joe and I have just come back from the most beautiful and wonderful 48 hours at Port Lympne Park, located in Kent.  Weirdly, I’ve never been to this part of the UK before. I’ve travelled to Margate a fair bit as my nan and grandad moved there in their later years. However, I’ve never done…

Life Lately & Belated Celebrations For 9 Years of Zoey Olivia

I’ve been so erratic with my blogging schedule this year. I was supposed to do a celebratory post for my blog’s 9th birthday on the 9th September, but I’ve had zero time sadly. Life be life-ing as usual. I’m a little worried that Autumn and Winter are some of my busiest upcoming months too. Anyway, I just wanted to say…

Little Joys Over The Past 4 Months

I realised my last ‘little joys’ post was written in mid May. So, I’m long overdue to have a big old catch up celebrating small wins and happy memories over the past 4 months. Prepare yourself though, this is going to be super long, so grab a cuppa… Let’s just say, A LOT has been happening… I’m not living that…
