If Cellulite Was Sexy
Like most young women of my era, I have been googling variations of ‘how to get rid of cellulite,’ ‘the quickest way to eliminate cellulite’ or ‘why do I have cellulite?’ on a semi-regular basis since I hit puberty.

What Dating An Opioid Addict Taught Me About Drugs
Have you ever seen the film called Yes Man? It’s about a man who decides to say Yes to absolutely everything, just to see where it takes him.

Take a Deep Breath: The World Isn’t Ending
It’s easy to feel like the world is ending. Climate Change, Deforestation, COVID, Political upheaval… need I go on?

Four years ago, I lay in bed and googled: ‘am I being abused?’ The first article that I stumbled upon said this: ‘If you are googling this question, then the answer is probably yes.’ I wouldn’t be able to find that same article again now.
