Well here we are.. nearly at the end of 2021 and oof, what a year it’s been. It’s been another rollercoaster year hasn’t it? Full of ups and downs, twists and turns and everything in between.  For many of us, it’s been a tough and challenging one and so if you’re feeling exhausted, fatigued and a bit fed up as 2021 draws to a close then you’re certainly not alone! In this month’s podcast, we...

It’s been 12 months now since the first lockdown here in the UK and we are very much looking forward to stepping into a new quarter and starting a new chapter in the year.  As we step into spring, it has felt incredibly cathartic to hit pause and take a moment to sit back, take stock and reflect on how the la...

It’s in hearing people’s real lo...

Hello lovely! If you’ve been following us for a while then you’ll know that we like to challenge the modern day narrative that love is something that comes from that one special romantic partner in life.
