Hello lovely followers!

How are you all doing?

This week's video is a VLOG style glimpse at our day. Do you prefer this style of video or do you lean more towards sit down videos that cover a certain subject?

I think my channel will always be a combination of both but I'd love to know your thoughts/preferences.

Here's the link to this week's video if you haven't watched it yet.

Happy New Year!
Just wanted to pop on here to wish you all the very best for 2021. I hope to be back regularly posting here on my channel after all the drama that came my way last year.
I'm going to be filming a Q&A video answering all your questions (any topic) so please comment here with anything you'd like to ask.
I want to thank you all for your unbelievable support and hope you come along for the ride with me again this year.
Lots of love

T H E ‘C’ W O R D
I can’t even believe I am writing this post but I’ve never been good at acting and it’s time to tell the truth.

After being medicated for hyperthyroidism during my triplet pregnancy I was due to be sent for an ultrasound and biopsy in May, after the triplets were born. Covid meant this didn’t happen until September.
Then, in a room by myself, (Thanks again Covid) I was told I have Cancer. A tumour has been growing in my thyroid for the last 2 years.

I’m beyond devastated. Highly emotional and currently in a huge fog.

I will have surgery this month and I’m very hopeful that will be the end of it. I’m led to believe this is very treatable and I’m very thankful to hear those words and have every confidence in my surgeon.

I’ve toyed with just disappearing from social media. I’m beyond exhausted. Emotionally and physically, this year has been too much for me and I don’t give up easily. The toll on my body is showing and my body and brain feel like aliens to me. I’ve questioned why, after everything else this year, I’m being dealt the cancer card and I have no answers.

I’m posting this because I want to keep working as it is a very important outlet for me and genuinely provides me with joy but, as I said, I’m not great at acting and I can’t pretend everything is fine when I’m at my lowest right now.

I hope you’ll understand and continue to follow along but understand when I’m not all smiles or when there is the inevitable silence.

Thanks to everyone who was able to join in with the Premiere chat tonight. The chat got deleted immediately after the live though, unfortunately. It was so lovely to be able to chat to some of you though. I hope you enjoy the Christmas gift guide. I, for one, can't wait for Christmas now as here in Ireland we're about to start another 6 week lockdown.
