I started the blog as a hobby. A way of letting out my thoughts and anonymously sharing a bit of me with the world. Writing is now my career and as a freelancer, it has taken me away from...
So this week’s post is a little different. I’ve written before about the dangers of social media, the comparison and the fake bullshit, but actually, it’s not all bad. For me, Instragram is one of the more positive spaces especially...
