when you don't know what to do... try this.
There’s nothing quite like the existential thrill of staring at your ceiling at 2 a.m., wondering if it’s too late to become a marine biologist or if you should just settle for Googling “jobs for people with no passions.” It’s a glamorous moment, really-a hallmark of modern adulthood.
In this video, we’re throwing out the myth that anyone knows what they’re doing (they don’t) and tackling the real question: what happens when you don’t have a clue? - You stop waiting for answers and start doing something-anything. Not because it’s life-changing, but because motion beats staring at the ceiling.
So, if you’re in the middle of your own life crisis-refreshing Instagram, panic-eating Doritos, or ...

This year, Christmas isn’t loud. There’s no family chaos, no interrogation about my love life over dry turkey, and no questionable matching pajamas. It’s just me, London in its holiday finest, and a kind of quiet I wasn’t entirely prepared for-but maybe needed. In a city that insists on playing the lead in its own holiday rom-com, I’m rethinking what Christmas can be when you strip away the noi...

Somewhere along the way, you lost yourself. One day, you wake up and realize you’ve been living someone else’s version of adulthood-a series of small compromises that snowballed into a life that doesn’t quite feel like yours. Sound familiar? In this video, we’re exploring what it means to take back the script, scene by scene. Forget grand gestures or dramatic reinventions-change doesn’t have to...

In this video, we’re leaving behind the sweaty chaos of summer in London and stepping into that glorious, golden in-between where the city finally exhales. This isn’t just about cooler air-it’s about permission to slow down, to wander the market stalls of Notting Hill without rushing, and to finally ditch the pretense of loving rooftop cocktails. Fall sneaks up on you, reminding you that someti...

In this video, I share the realities of navigating life on my own-handling the quiet routines, figuring things out as I go, and occasionally wishing someone else could pitch in with the emotional heavy lifting. It’s about finding balance between independence and the hope that maybe, one day, there’ll be room for someone else in the life I’ve built. TikTok - bit.ly/4dakJdD Instagram - bit.ly/3zK...

Here’s a peek into my first few days in London-navigating the excitement of a new city while also wrangling the chaos of unpacking what feels like my entire life. I wander through the colorful chaos of Camden Market, indulge in some rom-com nostalgia in Notting Hill, soak in the history at Westminster, and find my way to Covent Garden for some much-needed people-watching. And while it all sound...

When life hands you London… you make a go of it. This video is about my unexpected move to London in my mid-30s. What started as a casual idea somehow turned into a reality, and trust me, it’s been a mix of excitement, chaos, and everything in between. From navigating the tricky London flat hunt to figuring out the everyday mundane piece of life in a new city, I’m sharing my honest experience o...

Spent a few days in Paris on my way to London, and it was... well, interesting. Not quite the postcard-perfect experience, but I had some good moments and a lot of thoughts... most of which are explained here. It's not the main event, but it's part of the journey.
