Therapy 🥺😟

Not because I’m broken, but because I’m tired of running from the parts of myself I’m afraid to face.
The fear…The abandonment…The self-sabotage…The pain I’ve carried and the pain IVE CAUSED.
I can’t change my past, BUT I can choose what I do with it.
This is going to hurt (and I’m shitting myself)
It’s going to be uncomfortable.
But I’m finally ready to do the work.
Not just to fix my life but To save myself 🖤🥀

I know will be a lot of questions about the dog it’s @22jerrymouse8 baby Aiza 😍

I’ve lost my way and the hardest part is :

I had already built a life I was proud of while sober. I had found my spark again. My strength. My clarity. My fucking self.
Then I let the darkness back in.
I’m not going to romanticise it. I’m not going to make excuses. My mistakes were mine. And they came dangerously close to taking away everything I fought so hard to build. But I’m still here.
So I’m choosing to walk away from that version of myself again.
Not because the road is easy. Not because I suddenly have everything figured out. But because I’ve seen exactly where that road ends and I refuse to go there.

Slowly becoming the woman I was always meant to be.
Every heartbreak, every setback, every dark chapter is shaping me.
I’m shedding old versions of myself, piece by piece.
And one day, I’ll look back and realise.
I was becoming my best self all along. 🖤🔥

Being myself has never been about fitting into the room — it’s about building my own.

Now I’m stepping into a new chapter, taking over an all-female team in a rock bar. 🎸🖤

Loud women. Big personalities. Strong opinions. A little chaos. A lot of passion.

Here’s to taking up space, backing yourself, and creating something that feels unapologetically YOU.

The girls are taking over. We’re turning the volume and Rock’n’Roll all the way up 🤘🖤

Been keeping to myself lately, life’s been pretty good. I’ve stopped forcing things, stopped explaining myself and stopped looking for answers where there aren’t any.

It’s funny how much can change when you finally let go. You start feeling like yourself again, you laugh more, you sleep better, and suddenly the things that used to bother you just… don’t.

No hard feelings. No drama. Just moving forward and enjoying where I’m at. Some people really do become strangers for a reason 🖤 taken in London, United Kingdom by @badcatalice

Another trip around the sun. 🎂

This year tested me, changed me, broke me in places, and rebuilt me in others. I’ve lost people, found myself, made mistakes, learned hard lessons, and discovered strength I didn’t know I had.

I’m not the same person I was a year ago—and I’m grateful for that.

33 feels different. Less about proving myself, more about protecting my peace. Less chasing, more appreciating. Less surviving, more living.

Here’s to growth, healing, genuine connections, unforgettable memories, and becoming the person I’ve always been meant to be.

Happy Birthday to me. 🖤✨

60 days sober came to an end. And you know what? I’m okay with that. Whole 2 months of transformation 🙌🏼

This isn’t a failure—it was a reminder of how far I’ve come. The biggest victory isn’t chasing perfection.It’s breaking the cycle.

I no longer drink every day. I no longer need alcohol to get through life. Now it’s an occasional drink with friends, not something that controls me.

Those 60 days gave me clarity, better health, peace of mind, and showed me I’m stronger than I thought.

Progress isn’t always a straight line. Sometimes it’s about replacing destructive habits with healthier ones and refusing to go back to who you used to be.

Here’s to balance, growth, and continuing to choose myself—one day at a time.

I will try it again soon tho, but for now it’s my Birthday coming up 🦁👑

Stepping away from social media wasn’t giving up—it was choosing myself.

I disappeared because I needed silence. I needed space to heal, to rebuild, and to remember who I was

Not everything needs to be shared. Some battles are meant to be fought in private.

I’m not coming back as the same person. I’m returning slower, quieter, and stronger. Still healing. Still growing. Still protecting my peace.

If I’ve been absent, that’s why.

The comeback doesn’t have to be loud. Sometimes the strongest return is simply showing up again.

Ahoy, thirsty legends!🏴‍☠️

You’re invited to a night of sea and spirits in pirate paradise with the @thecocktailtradingco crew this Sunday 19th July.

Three high seas scallywags will climb aboard throughout the night, taking the wheel for an hour each to serve up their very own nautical numbers🍹

The ‘Bad Cat Buccaneer’ @badcatalice is serving up ‘Crimson Corsairs’ from 6-7, ‘Seagull’ @sam__moseley is crafting ‘Polly Wants a Cuppa’ 8-9, and Christian ‘Black Sail’ @cbs is rounding us off with ‘Bonnet’s Libation’ from 10-11.

Plus, V Rum’s Tom, our very own Captain ‘Daiq’ Sparrow, is bringing the booty – bottles and bottles of V Rum and classic daiquiris all night long!

So set sail and join us for a night of fancy dress, daiquiri challenges, and general pirate debauchery!🦜

Some days are heavier than others.

Lately, my mental health has been a real struggle. The flashbacks from my past keep finding their way back into my mind, and healing hasn’t been as simple or as quick as I hoped.

I’m learning that recovery isn’t linear. There are days when I feel like I’m moving forward, and days when old memories pull me back. But I’m choosing to keep going, even when it’s difficult.

If you’re fighting battles in your own mind, know you’re not alone.
Be kind to yourself. Healing takes time, and surviving the hard days is still progress.

Here’s to hoping for brighter days ahead, my Dm is always open 🖤
