Where to start?

There's often a big difference between what you need to do and what you want to do. Perhaps you find yourself writing a long to do list of all the the things to get done, a combination of needs and wants. Whilst working through this list you find yourself doing doing things and crossing them … Continue reading Where to start? →

Give yourself 5 minutes

It probably doesn't seem like much or like it could possible be enough but sometimes all you need is 5 minutes. So often we tell ourselves that we don't have the time for certain things. They could be things that take minutes not hours or days but somehow we still find a way to make … Continue reading Give yourself 5 minutes →

Reasons to unsubscribe from an email list

I recently unsubscribed from an email list. Afterwards, I got thinking about why I did it for that particular brand and why I'd do it in general. We all already get way too many emails and so an additional 5 a week from a company you bought hair products from once and don't plan to … Continue reading Reasons to unsubscribe from an email list →

Embracing awkward

For those that consider themselves to be awkward and those that are self conscious of how they appear to others, being yourself can be difficult. However, it turns out that the only way to overcome it is to embrace yourself with open arms. Awkwardness is always amplified when you focus on it. On the flipside, … Continue reading Embracing awkward →

None of it matters as much you think it does

Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp are all so heavily integrated into our daily lives that to be without them (even just for a few hours) is difficult. Suddenly, you're having to figure out what to do with your time instead of spending it scrolling. Conversations that have been going for days or even weeks have now … Continue reading None of it matters as much you think it does →

Enjoy your life

It could be considered strange that we know that life is finite yet we choose to focus so much on the things that bring us the least joy. We spend our time doing things that take us further and further from our core selves and then wonder why there is so much emptiness within. Often … Continue reading Enjoy your life →

It’s not that important

Sometimes things that aren't that important get dressed up to be the most important thing in the world. You react by getting overwhelmed and stressed. This effects you're sleep, general mood and how you interact with others. As much as you want to feel good within you're body, you can't help but sacrifice that for … Continue reading It’s not that important →

Important conversations

We might not like them but we have to have them. We put off difficult conversations because they make us nervous. We're worried about how our words will come out, how our words will be perceived, how the person on the receiving end will feel, we're scared of being vulnerable and we worry that we … Continue reading Important conversations →

Start showing up

It's important to show up for the things that you care about and for the things that matter. It doesn't need to be for praise and attention, simply do it for yourself. This can be applied to so many things. Maybe you're passionate about the environment, you might even have lots of good ideas or … Continue reading Start showing up →

What’s best for you?

Sometimes when it comes to doing what's best for you, you don't consider yourself to be important. And so, instead of making a decision based on what's best for you and your wellbeing you put other people first. You make choices based on people pleasing and fear of letting people down or having them be … Continue reading What’s best for you? →

What I love about writing on thedailygemm is that I can look back and remember the inspiration behind certain posts. Sometimes writing is just a way for me to work through a difficult situation, instead of getting caught up in the moment, I put the focus on finding a solution or looking at things from a different perspective. Haven't been writing on this blog lately. Instead I've been going to a weekly writing class and working on articles for something new. I love it when my most popular posts are also some of my personal favourites. September 2022 August 2022 July 2022 I that I'm able to write things that will be helpful to read months or even years later. Top posts from May last year. When I write from personal experience and it resonates, I always think, this is for us. It's for me being able to express myself and something that you can relate to.
