A year ago today, I had no idea what heartbreak really meant. A year ago today, I couldn't even begin to comprehend just how much comfort you could find in seemingly meaningless items like a hanky or an old button up shirt. A year ago today, we held our hearts in our hands as we whispered Goodbye…
2016 has been a pretty intensely shitty year. I know I'm not alone because almost every conversation I've been a part of and meme or status I've seen have echoed that exact sentiment. Tales of hatred, humiliation and disaster have filled our Newsfeeds and we've all fallen victim to clickbait media shitstorms created to distract us from…
Let me start off by saying that I cried today. I cried real, raw, gritty tears of exhaustion, love and blessings. Now that the tears are gone, I am feeling on top of the world after securing tickets to see my home girl Adele when she tours Australia in March next year. Words could never…
Don't worry guys, I'm still over here floating along on a cloud of fairy floss and sipping on the sweet nectar of bliss. It's just that I've really been thinking about the little things this week - you know the ones that we're not supposed to stress about? Yeah those. It's way healthier to just get it…

The dreaded 3-5 days that comes around to destroy all plans and hopes of your future because the lining of your uterus is shedding and you are convinced this may be the time that your period actually kills you. Let's take this back to the start; the…
This Sunday is Father's Day. A day to celebrate the men in our lives who nurture our creativity and strengths, love us unconditionally, protect us from the monsters under our beds and help us navigate the bad choices they know we are sure to make. Men who are connected to us by blood or by love…
I'm going to go out on a limb and suggest that it won't come as a surprise to you that I am a feminist and without sounding too naive or idealistic, you're probably one too. Let's start off by saying, I'm not an academic. I haven't enrolled in gender studies or spent my life researching…
