Let’s keep it real — balance isn’t always cute, aesthetic, or perfectly planned out. Most days, it looks like me typing up blog drafts at midnight, squeezing in strategy sessions
If I could sit across from my younger self, heart full and eyes wide, I’d speak to her gently—but truthfully. I’d tell her everything I now know through pain, growth,
Sis, let’s get into it. How many times have you been told you’re too loud, too ambitious, too dramatic, too opinionated, or just too damn much? Somewhere along the way,
I’ve come to a stark realisation—I was never made to work for other people. I’ve tried, time and time again, to make it work. But the last few days have
I had big dreams of diving into 2025 with a renewed sense of purpose and a sharper focus on blogging. But, as always, life has its way of throwing curveballs.
I can’t lie. I actually want to throw in the towel. As I write this, I have the urge to go off the grid, close all my accounts, and never be seen again. Life is really hard. Like, really hard. When I left school, ready to embark on this journey called life, I imagined it would be easier. Or if it wasn’t easier, I thought I would at least be able to find a way. Because I saw it: there is always a way.
Looking back on my journey, it’s been quite the rollercoaster. Ever since my teenage years, I’ve been juggling a multitude of roles—modeling gigs, pageant competitions, late-night study sessions, and diving headfirst into the world of entrepreneurship.

After being told too many times that I am over emotional. I now no longer want to be emotional about any one or anything. If I could lock away and not have any contact with anyone for 6 months, I can honestly say that I would take that offer up because I have had enough. I’ve had enough of backstabbers (there have been a few over the last few months). I am tired of having to fake it with them. Some I have blocked and deleted because they was fake AF and smiled in my face, pretending to be my friend, or a supporter when they were slyly wanting the worst for me.
Do you ever wake-up and look in the mirror and realise that you’re no-where where you imagined you’d be? This has happened to me every single day since last Tuesday but today it feels more heavy than ever. It isn’t all bad…. I am rebranding Women Who Slay, I know my blog can grow and I am prepared to put in the work but at the same time, redundancy is around the corner, I am battling to clear debts I incurred after the closure of my online magazine and I feel deeply overwhelmed and very very stressed. So here’s a little life update……
I am a Fashion, Beauty and Lifestyle blogger, an obsessed photo taker, a shopaholic and a herbal tea addict who loves to blog and to create quality content. I post honest reviews and only share content that I am passionate about.
This blog is my little slice of the interweb to share outfits, beauty tips and product reviews, good shopping deals, recipes and restaurant reviews + much more geared to helping you live a better and more positive life.
I hope you love reading my content as much as I enjoy producing it. xoxo
