Mental health needs our divided attention it’s time to put it in consideration. Some would say it’s ‘attention seeking’, but i would say let’s put an end to this critiquing. Investing time into looking after yourself and your mental health is just as important as your physical health. The recognition of the importance of mental is continuously improving, yet it is still not where it needs to be. Everyone you meet has struggles and mental health challenges as it is only in our human nature, whether this be anxiety or trauma from a past relationship. You never know what someone is going through and this is why it is so important to be kind to others, your action could be affecting someone more than you know. A smile when passing someone on the street, checking up on your friends and family and letting them know how important they are, even sending them a meme on Instagram or a funny Tik Tok you saw that reminded you of them to let them know you’re thinking of them; gestures like these

Dance has been a massive chunk of my life for pretty much the whole two decades. According to my mum, i’ve quite literally been dancing since the womb. If i’m being honest it’s the only thing i’ve never given up. I tried so many different hobbies as a kid; playing cello, singing, gymnastics and even art, but dance has been the only one that i stuck with. I never really felt like a musician, singer, artist or gymnast - despite training for years, but i’ve always felt like a dancer. I’m definitely not the best dancer but seeing how much i’ve grown is one of my biggest achievements. I was actually watching some old videos back recently and seeing how far i’ve come was really comforting. I’ve had times when i’ve been fairly hard on myself and doubted my abilities, however just being able to see the improvements over the years reminds me that i’m doing just fine. It can be easy to compare yourself to other people who share the same love for your craft but it’s important to be kind to yourse

*1 Corinthians 13:4-7 NLT [Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no records of being wronged. It does not rejoice about injustice, but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.] As I was watching Jada, address the rumours and “entanglement” (her words not mine) she was involved in (because of the pressure of social media talking about her love life, as if concerned them), it occurred to me how weirdly obsessed we are as a generation of flawed love. We actively seek or are active bystanders to love on social media that is flawed — either being staged for the camera and for the fans, being conditional, being toxic or being materialistic and shallow with no actual substance. Yet, we’re suckers for it. I don’t think we realise how concerned we are over love that is nothing near perfect and

Summer 2020 isn’t what we expected or envisioned to be like, a vast number of holidays have been cancelled as a result and plans for this ideal ‘summer body’ has put on hold due to lockdown restrictions. It has been frustrating to deal with this to be completely honest with you, as you know I’m all about the gym lifestyle and encourage those to take their physical health just as important as their mental health. But boy, it hasn’t been easy as I have had own tribulations when it comes to loosing and gaining weight as it requires patience and perseverance in which I had to learn in the long run. The turning point was the beginning of December 2019 as I said enough was enough, if I set a goal in how I want my body to look like in a couple of months and stick to it - anything is possible when you put your mind to it. Manifestation is the key; you just need to unlock it to reveal your dreams shinning at the end of the door. I let all these insecurities which I had about my weight to f

Do you want to start a business? Have your own little side hustle? Have something you can call your own? Think it’s easy? Think again! It’s not always straightforward as it seems... Starting a business is one of the hardest, yet most rewarding things you could do because not only do you have to build your business from bottom to top but you have to ensure that your commitment, drive and determination is always 110% and you continue to strive for growth and success. Nobody will do the work for you, you have to do it by yourself, put in the time, the effort, make sacrifices and go through hardships to come out on the other side better and stronger.  Whether you’re starting by yourself or with a partner or friends, whatever it may be, make sure you know yourself, know what you are putting yourself into. Know your goals, the direction you want this to go in, your strengths, weaknesses and skills. It takes time, it’s a process. You have to be tough and not let anything or anyone to wa
