Ah “balance“… that old yoga word.Turns out balance isn’t just a word we use on the tightrope. It is also a word that applies to our daily jobs, our lovers and our day-to-day non work life.

…the business of being a busy new year’s woman So it’s officially my first day of the New Year. Yes it’s the 4th but I was travelling back for the first few days from a luxurious Amsterdam New Years trip with a few of my besties so I gave myself a few days grace. I’m […]
