    I tell everyone else to look after themselves… yet I’ve spent 8 weeks ignoring a finger injury. So today we’re talking about why taking our own advice is often the hardest thing of all.

    British Heatwaves are a Mental Test

    It’s 31 degrees in England, the house feels like an air fryer, nobody in this country has proper air con, and somehow the heatwave has turned into a full existential crisis. In this episode, I’m talking about burnout, overstimulation, money stress, British summers as an adult, and why heatwaves feel like a genuine mental health test.

    I Forgot How to Live In The Moment

    I drank 11 drinks on a hen do… and honestly? I haven’t felt that carefree in YEARS. Not because of the alcohol itself, but because for once my brain stopped racing. I felt young, present, confident and genuinely happy. In this episode I’m talking about overthinking, adulthood, survival mode, and why so many of us have forgotten how to actually live in the moment.

    The Real Reason I Chose a Dance Career

    This week’s podcast episode is a personal one in light of Mental Health Awareness Week ❤️ I’m sharing the real reason I chose a career in dance, how it became my outlet growing up, and the role it played in supporting my mental health when I was younger. Dance became so much more than just dance to me… and I know so many people will relate to having that one thing that helped them through.

    When Did Existing Become So Expensive?

    This week on This is Why I’m Tired… when did existing become SO expensive?! From £40 food shops that somehow contain three items, to subscription overload, rising bills, beauty maintenance, business costs, and the emotional exhaustion of constantly thinking about money. Why does it feel like we’re all working harder but getting less in return? In this episode, I’m chatting about the pressure of trying to “keep up” in 2026, the weird guilt around spending money, social media making everyone look secretly rich, and the reality of running a small business while costs keep climbing. Basically… adulthood currently feels like one big direct debit. If you’ve ever opened your banking app and immediately felt unwell, this episode is for you. Thinking about joining Monzo?

    The Burnout of Always Being Reachable

    In this episode, I’m talking about something I know I’m not alone in, why texting just feels… exhausting now. You know when you open a message, see a full-on paragraph (or four), and instantly think “I cannot deal with this right now”? Same. I’m diving into why our brains are starting to reject constant messaging, how texting has somehow turned into a task instead of connection, and why so many of us are craving more “real” communication again. If you’ve ever ignored a message you fully intended to reply to… this one’s for you.

    How I Went From Exhausted To Functioning (Kind Of)

    If you enjoy the podcast and want to support it, I've added a little link : ⁠Buy Me A Coffee ☕⁠ If you’re constantly tired, overwhelmed, and wondering why everything feels harder than it should… this episode is for you. I’m sharing what’s actually been helping me feel more focused, less foggy, and able to function again (without pretending I suddenly have my life together 😂). From my current morning routine to the supplements I’ve been trying, I break down what’s made a difference, and what hasn’t. Because sometimes… it’s not that you’re lazy. You’re just exhausted. As promised, here is a link to all of these supplements I take: - Iron & Vitamin C - Rhodiola Rosea Extract - N-Acetyl L-Cysteine - L-Tyrosine - Probiotics Designed for Women - B12 Dual Power (As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.)
