It's Jo-Ann Greene

Sometimes the best things can still make you feel a bit stupid some days 🙈 (well, in my overthinking brain anyway!).

But it’s always good to remember why you do the thing!

I was struggling with my hair. I found something that helped me and I wanted to help other women who felt like I did.

So I help people with their hair troubles, I earn some extra money for my family and have created a lovely little business.

If you’ve ever thought you’d like to give this a try but maybe think you’d feel a bit daft, message me and we can feel daft together. It’s totally worth it!

This is exactly why I have had a side business in some shape or form these last 7 years.

Not to make a fortune (though open to that 😂) but just to have a bit of extra money coming in that can help with the unexpected stuff, take a bit of pressure off, pay towards a holiday or even just buy a coffee and a bun without thinking about it.

If you’ve been thinking about earning a bit extra yourself, you’re maybe not sure how to or if you even can, message me EXTRA and I’ll tell you what I do - and maybe it could be just the right thing for you too ☺️

Some practical, some completely random 😂

Feel free to add to the list or ask me about anything!

Everything was feeling a bit much there for a while and even being on my phone was making me feel sick (too much noise💥).

I think mid-40s hormones are hitting hard 😬 so I’ve been trying to keep things a bit more simple day-to-day. (And when sleep is pretty much out the window I don’t have energy for much else anyway 🥱).

Thankfully it was the Easter holidays so we were all off work and school so that definitely helped. I love nothing more than no routine!!

Lots of time outside the last few weeks (which helps a lot), time with the kids, nice food and about a million episodes of The Office.

Just a few moments from the last few weeks:

1. The most gorgeous walk in our local park
2. Sunshine on Strangford Lough
3. Be more Thelma 🐾
4. Daddy daughter ❤️
5. A little fairytale house
6. Day out with my mum and sister
7. The most elegant swan
8. The Office on repeat + colouring = love
9. Amazing food
9. Capybaras are even cuter in real life!
10. Love a wee trip to
11. Out on real roads now with the boy 😳
12. The most beautiful forest floor

Today wasn’t a bad day at all - but my head just felt a bit busy again and the overwhelm was there. Especially this morning.

So did a few wee things that help me when I feel like that - including something new that I think has helped already. Anyone else tried ear seeding?

Finding little things that help take that edge off as you go about your day is so important.

If you have any little things like this that help you, I’d love to hear them.
