Being a little more eco-friendly and living a more sustainable life is something that has been on my mind for a while. I’ve written about it in the past and whilst it’s something that I feel passionately about it’s something that isn’t always as obtainable as we’d maybe like to think. However, I’m a big believer in doing what we can in the areas of our lives that we can, and this what I’m trying to do right now to cut down on waste and be a lot kinder to our precious planet.

If you have anything to do with the world of ‘influencers’ (will that word ever not sound awkward and weird?) then you will have probably have seen the mass panic that happened before the weekend surrounding the disclosure laws. The business of blogging is frankly not something I have any interest in writing about as it can all be a little tedious and there are lots of people who are much more knowledgable on the subject than I am. But this post seemed important to write as there have been so many strange reactions to these guidelines and it was a little sad to see so such a reaction from content creators. I believe being transparent is vital online and these guidelines seem like a positive step in the right direction for all of us so here are a few thoughts on it all.

2018 was very much of year of exploration for me when it came to anything work-related. I went through quite a lot of changes and I feel really quite settled with what I want and where I want to go, which is a wonderful feeling as I can’t remember the last time that I went into a new year with as much clarity as this. So here is what my current work routine and mantra will hopefully be for the next 12 months.

Welcome to your first weekend reading list of 2019! January is absolutely flying by and the festivities of Christmas feel like they were months ago, I’ve been gradually getting back into the swing of things and trying to do right by my resolutions. I’ve been watching, listening and reading to so many great things at the moment that I’ve been excited to share this post with you as there are some real gems in here, enjoy!

Whilst these posts are always a little weird to photograph because it’s such a random mix of items they are always my favourite to write as they feel like a conversation between friends. There are certain things that I either reach for daily or every few days and when I pick them up I always think to myself how grateful I am to have them in my life as they really do make it that much better. Which is why I wanted to share them in today’s post and of course, I want to know all about the items that do that for you in your life too.
