At the beginning of 2026, I celebrated my 5th business birthday. I’m a bit of an accidental business owner, so it’s definitely a pinch-me moment. I never dreamt of running my own business. But 5 years in, I’m still here, and can honestly say, it’s the best job I’ve ever had.

February: Dogs, Valentines And Being An Influencer
I don’t quite know where to begin with my usual monthly reflections. February felt like a weird month. I spent so much of it feeling tired and energyless. I felt stuck in first gear.
