Getting really real [because I wish more people did].

It’s been a while since BTM has done a nookie/taboo/naughty/bedroom/women’s health post. Definitely don’t read too much into why there’s been the absense, I just had to balls up [ha!] again to write and share on such personal topics. But it was, ultimately, a no brainer. Here’s why: [Most] Women bleed. If they’re lucky, they bleed […]

Him.

This one has been brewing for a while. And I’ve been hesitant, so hesitant, to share because it’s our story. Ours. I don’t want to tarnish it with over sharing or reduce it down to words on a page – because it’s beyond that. But I do feel that the lessons I learnt leading up […]

The Epic Reading Challenge of 2018 – Bless this Mess Stylez

25dfc9438bf9dc74afb6a7cb79c90731

Do you remember as a kid doing the MS readathon? I freakin’ frothed it. A book nerd from way back, obvs. Essentially it’s a few months where you get sponsored per page or per book and you fundraise for Multiple Sclerosis research. You get prizes and incentives along the way and, obviously, get to soak […]

The Evolution of Resolutions

It feels crazy and has totally caught me unawares that I write this post in 2018. Twenny, mother flippin, eighteen. Everyone that I have spoken to has been flummoxed [my New Years resolution is to use more obscure words, henceforth flummoxed will feature … ad hoc] by the speed, ferocity and busyness of the final […]

The Powerful Duo That’ll Change your Life

There’s a fine line that I have seen social media and podcasts and documentaries tiptoe along as of late – and that’s within the concept of radical self acceptance. Accepting (and consequently loving) yourself is key to happiness and is the cornerstone of EVERY healthy relationship (friendship, lovers, marriage, whatevs). The whole premise of acceptance […]

FEEL-GOOD GIFTS

With Christmas just around the corner [gah] – it’s high time we have a look at some gifts that give a little more. I mean – sure we can buy the latest iBop, trendy shoes, single use gizmo or whatever … but how good would it feel to gift something that’s reach extends far beyond […]

Taking up Space

After chipping away at this blog for some years now [I know, mindfuck right?] some of its showcased musings and ramblings start to blend into one. These posts that take on the shape and form of a sort of essay, teasing apart and exploring a particular theme or concept that’s tuggin at my brain on […]

The Curious Case of the Curious Adult

tumblr-background-clouds-30

As kids, we are curious AF. It’s the driving force behind absolutely everything that we do and pursue. Curiosity is what compels us to try weird and wonderful flavour combinations [chocolate sauce on spaghetti, hell yeah]; it urges us to see what happens when we try skating over that big jump; it beckons us to find […]

WWHYD – What Would Higher You Do? [An unexpected post]

DESIRE-artbyMYSTICMAMMA-ALLRIGHTSRESERVED

  We all know that as you grow and evolve, your perceptions of things shift. Concepts and constructs that once appeared a certain way, when you were looking at them as a child, now seem totally different when you see them from your adult eyes. The magic of a ball pit [for a kid friendly […]
