Feeling Body Confident in Julie May (GIFTED)

I was recently gifted some lovely products and have been using these now for about a month. They've honestly both made me feel like an absolute queen when it comes to caring for myself, my body, and my skin. As you may know body image is a huge issue for me, and I preach body…

A little life update!

Life is a fast mover, and there's always something new around the corner, whether we expect it or not. Sometimes, it's overwhelming; sometimes, it's exciting; sometimes, it's both. My life has come with a mix of all three, in recent times especially, and those are things I wanted to share with you. PersonalThe first thing…

Little Things I Love About Myself

I don't exactly have the best perception of my self image, nor do I like how I look on a daily basis, but I'm trying my damn best to overcome it. The body positivity movement has helped me a lot, and is something that - though I always follow - I dip in and out…

What PRIDE means to me

Pride is something I've been raised to have a careful balance with. Before, I never really knew why that mattered, but in more recent years, I have most certainly used it to my advantage. Pride meant little to me growing up. I knew it to bear something on confidence (in a good way) but also…

What Drag Race Has Done For My Confidence

RuPaul's Drag Race. It's queer culture. It's your feel good reality show with a high dosage of shaaade. In my last post, I actually referenced a specific moment from the show to coherently express my feelings on a matter, but today I speak of a much more generalised topic surrounding the show; Confidence. Confidence? How…

Intuitive Eating – a response to Toxic Influences

A response to Kim Kardashian's toxic behaviour, in which I promote self love and the instinct of intuitive eating.
