CREATIVITY IS THE SH*T.

Hey boo. Hey. You know that thing that you’ve been putting off doing for fear of rejection or judgment? Yeah. Go do it.

Allowing yourself to unleash your creativity is so cool. It really is. I sometimes can feel like my ideas are silly or just simply not good enough. Will anyone like what I have to say? Will people judge what I have to say? Is it worth the risk? YES BITCH. OF COURSE IT IS. Creativity is the shit. It really is. Plucking something from your brain and allowing it to flourish into something AMAZING. Something that can create an impact. Something thought-provoking is REALLY FUCKING COOL. I don’t want you to EVER feel like your ideas aren’t good enough or worthy enough of an audience because they SO ARE. Creativity is a vulnerable thing. Do you know how much strength and courage it takes to share your ideas with the world? Ideas that have come directly from your imagination that are now being seen by so many. THAT TAKES BALLS. You should be so proud of that.

I remember having an idea for a blog I wanted to create. At the time, I was terrified. Will anybody read it? Will people care about what I have to say? Am I going to make an impact or just crash and burn? I launched it. I was soooo scared believe me but WOW I couldn’t be more thankful to my past self for having the confidence to share her ideas with the world. Creating a platform centred around something that had been such a huge insecurity of mine for so many years and speaking about it in a POSITIVE light feels like a dream. I knew younger me would not believe it. So much has happened over the years that younger me would be SO EXCITED about and that is because I allowed my creativity to be seen. I made sure people heard what I had to say. Creativity is the shit. I still have so many ideas I would LOVE to bring to light. I am already so proud of them and I can’t wait to see them flourish. I’m writing. I’m exploring. I’m creating. I’m really happy about it!

Okay. What have I been LOVING recently?

ACOMAF. A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J. Maas. Finished. Sorry. I should say DEMOLISHED. Wow. The second book did not come to play. Obsessed.

I’m currently reading The Midnight Library by Matt Haig. I am finding it so interesting. I feel like I am at a point in my life where I can really resonate with Nora and her story. Getting the opportunity to live your dream life but realising it wasn’t exactly what you thought it would be. Asking the question. When are we ever truly happy? Because life just isn’t perfect. VERY INTERESTING.

Gracie Abrams. Her new album The Secret of Us is STELLAR. Lyrically. Wow. Emotionally wow. It is so The Summer I Turned Pretty coded and I am here for it. 10/10. Fave song: Blowing Smoke.

PANIC on Amazon Prime. If you like suspense thrillers mixed with summer romance this is for you. The PLOT TWIST was juicyyyyy. The character development. LOVED. The whole thing was just such a vibe. When you think you know one character but suddenly realise you didn't know them at all. SO GOOD.

Okay. Let’s have a great Sunday and I gorgeous week. July baby! Let’s make the most of it (even if it is pissing it down) I love you all so much. You got this.

Big love ALWAYS,
