Just Another Girl, okay?
In Grey’s Anatomy, when Derek Shepherd asked Meredith Grey what her story was as they sat in the Seattle dive bar (that is frequented by a bunch of super smart and mega hot surgeons BTW), she answered with “I’m just a girl, in a bar.”
And I, too, am just a girl in a bar.
And I’m here to cover this corner of the internet with graffiti.
And by graffiti, I mean words.
Big, beautiful, nouns, verbs and adjectives.
I’m in love with the romance of language. Okay, okay, AND my husband.
Words are so powerful – they have the ability to educate, persuade and make lasting change.
In some cases, when applied correctly, they can change human behaviour.
And, let’s not forget, they can make you money.
But what’s the use if no one shares with you HOW to use words to the best of their cursive ability?
Communication specialists cost a ton of money to hire.
I should know, I am one.

After all, creative writing tips and PR advice is my jam and how I’ve made bank for the entirety of my career.
BUT this right here is a long standing passion of mine – to have my own corner of the internet that’s made specifically for people like you and me.
It’s a space where I can splash my personality and hopefully help some of you intelligent, brave gals on your own business journey’s.
I’m like a well dressed sherpa and you’re climbing Everest.
If Everest was an online marketplace.
I know what it's like to be stuck in a job that you don’t love, and crave more.
I know what it’s like to finally make the leap and do your own thing, only to make terrible business decisions.
I know what it’s like to ride the incredible highs; and to sink to incredible lows.
I know what it’s like to live with ‘imposter syndrome’ (aka the world’s worst roommate) and I know what it’s like to have zero clients and zero business experience.
I also know what it’s like to say fuck it and do it anyway.
To truly live your life on your own terms is entirely possible.
I promise you this. You are never done.
You are never too old, too inexperienced, too lost or too tired.
As long as you have the right people in your corner, and the right weaponry in your arsenal, you can do this.
And this brings me back to my why…
I’m just another girl who wants to be in your corner.
I pledge to share with you creative writing tips, PR advice and marketing secrets that are guaranteed to impact how you do business, and hopefully beef up that bottom line.
I’ve got loads of stories and real world experiences from my time working for the media, multi-million dollar companies and within my own businesses.
I’ve made waves, strategised, helped loads of clients, won awards, lost friends, had fun, hated life, gave it my all, felt uninspired, failed, succeeded, and loved every second.
I am not here to give fluffy, self-care advice.
That’s not who I am.
You will not find me talking about my morning meditation routine.
Ever.
(Mostly because I’m a night-owl and prefer sunsets over sunrises).
But I will show up – every week – to share tried and tested tips, experiences and genuine business advice that might make something click into place for you.
I’m finally in a position where I can share what it’s like to run a communications business, be a creative writer, and how I blend those gigantic responsibilities with being a Mum, my most important (but least paying) role.
But, yeah, boil it all down, and I am just another girl.
