I decided to try something new and go out by myself. Usually when my friends are unavailable, I abort the mission, but I’m kind of tired of doing that. They are parents now, so they are unavailable more often. I’ve been put alone before but it’s usually to the beach so this was a little […]
How My Alcohol-Free Journey Is Going
Welcome back to the blog. I stopped drinking about 2 months ago and it’s been so refreshing! My body feels so different – in a good way and I feel “cleaner” if you get what I mean. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t hate alcohol it’s just not what I want in my life at […]
Juggling All These Roles
Sometimes I feel like there just aren’t enough hours in the day. I want to do so much and it’s challenging.

Going Alcohol Free
It’s funny how things just seem to align for you. I recently decided to stop drinking and the other day I was listening to The Goal Digger podcast while I was washing the dishes and the episode that played was the one about alcohol and how it can affect our goals. Talk about divine intervention… […]

Could’ve Been The End
You ever felt like you were facing death in the face? Thought “this is it, this is how I die?”. I have! This is a story about something I experienced a few years ago… There’s a place called West Bank in East London; if you’re from around here, I’m sure you’re aware of it. It’s […]
When Imposter Syndrome Hits
I’ve just gone back to school and the other day I found myself feeling defeated, for no particular reason. I felt sad and stressed about my academics when I hadn’t even started yet.
