11. The reason I started blogging
I was dating a guy back in 2013 and he was really ambitious and motivated to succeed. I was in a bit of a rut, not enjoying my job and wondering whether I should move back to London and he said to me ‘tonight…I want you to think about what you love’. As I was watching TV, seemingly out of nowhere, this light bulb moment came to me and I thought ‘I love writing…’ All those story and poetry competitions I entered at school, all the diary entries and twitter threads I made must have counted for something, right? So that very evening I researched how best to start a blog. Spent the next week dedicated to learning how to code better and put together a blog good enough for others to see. I can’t believe it took me so long to realise my main passion was writing but here I am. Hi.

It’s just my first and middle name. I used to run a blog called insidemyshoe.com because I have so many trainers but I rebranded last year.

I love Christmas even though every year is the same old let down. Christmas 2017 was nice, though…
