I am a single parent, a writer, founder, PhD researcher, and wellbeing educator, and someone who has had to start over more than once. Life has a way of shaping us through trials, and my journey has been one of resilience, rediscovery, and purpose. After dodging cancer thrice, sailing through the aftermath of a divorce, raising a daughter as a single parent, and starting anew in a different country taught me invaluable lessons about inner strength, self-belief, and self-worth. These experiences ignited my passion to create meaningful change, not just for myself but for others going through similar kinds of life experiences.

My journey has taken me through different careers, countries and chapters of life. I became a single parent in 2020, rebuilt my life in the UK, returned to university and discovered that some of the hardest chapters can also lead us towards the work we were meant to do.

In 2019, I founded Sanity Daily, a mental health and wellbeing platform born from my own love of writing and journalling. What started as a personal writing practice has grown into a global platform with 1,200+ articles and around 30,000 monthly readers, exploring mental health, resilience, motherhood, identity, relationships, self-worth and the messy reality of being human. I am also the author of The Therapeutic Journal, a guided self-care journal for mothers who are constantly looking after everyone else and need a little space to reconnect with themselves.

With an MBA, an MSc, and over 15 years of corporate, higher education and digital marketing experience, I pivoted my career to advocate for mental health, you can call this my alter ego which gives me a sense of fulfilment. My blog, Sanity Daily, now hosts over 1,200 blog posts and over 30K readers across the globe.

Sanity Daily is recognised as one of the Top 10 Mental Health Blogs in the UK, and my podcast has been awarded Best Podcast of the Year 2024. I have been featured among 200 Compelling Female Bloggers Worldwide and as a finalist in the 40 Under 40 UK: Wellness Category. My work has been showcased on platforms like SHEROES, Women’s Web, Elle Foundation, and more.

Today, alongside raising my lovely daughter all by myself, building Sanity Daily, I am pursuing a PhD at the University of Strathclyde, researching how entrepreneurship can economically empower single mothers in marginalised communities in the UK.

My work sits at the intersection of mental health, women, motherhood, inclusion and economic empowerment because I believe wellbeing isn’t just about how we think or feel. It is also shaped by the opportunities, systems and circumstances around us.

I welcome you to Sanity Daily. ❤️ Lets prioritise mental health one blog at a time.
