I think these things work better when you just do them and do them consistently rather than worrying about making money. I started my newsletter for my own sake because I wanted to make myself look at what folks were doing. The minute I put pressure on myself about doing it for others, it sucked.

Highly recommend a joy jar - a text document with screenshots, quotes etc about your work, from colleagues or readers. Makes me feel good when I read it !

Yeah I mean, that is true, but I don't stand right on people when the carriages are empty 😆

An older woman stood glaring at me in a largely empty carriage before deciding to park herself right next to me, just touching me for the rest of the journey. Stand somewhere else until it gets busy!! She just spent a few mins puzzling over why the ground felt uneven.. cos you're on my foot, love

Is this a mid-life crisis or am I just incredibly tired of being the person everyone leans on? Hmm 🤔

"I don’t understand why you would want to punish people to the extent that they may have to sell their home."

Um because mobility is good and if there's two of you why on earth do you need a massive house?

I don't often do meals when hosting so I think I put a lot of pressure on myself to make something really great, but like...it's just food 🤷🏻‍♀️
