WHAT THE LAST SLIDE SAYS!!! 🥹🫶🏻
MAY - I almost have no words. If January me could have seen what would come to fruition by May I would never have believed it then. Maybe that was what kept me stuck, because the DAY I tried believing, acting with intention & moving like things were mine, in a matter of weeks the wheels started turning & here we are. THANKYOU MAY. The bin liners for blinds, the boxes and bags, the empty spaces, the empty bank account but the keys to build on my future - the month everything changed 🤩🤯🥹🏡
My Dermatica skincare routine has proved to me that skincare doesnt need to be complicated in order to see and feel incredible results 🧖🏼♀️ I have been using my personalised Dermatica skincare for almost 2 years now and I have never looked back 😆☁️

One thing about me? My support system is top top TOP tier 🥹🤝😆🫶🏻 ✨ * & the rest of you, you know who you are 😚
Alsoooo got the hair chopped and more baby blonde added, is it “change your hair and you change your life” they say? 😏😂 whatever it is I felt better walking out than i did walking in thats for sure 😜
& the life update is I haven’t found a house yet but the support system around me could literally build one brick by brick at this rate 😭 shouldn’t be too much longer god willing 😅 Just envisioning my littles all cosy, film & candles on and me cracking open that first M&S mexican dip in my new home 🤣 The simple things… so many MILES off it I laughed out loud typing it - but a girl has got to dream so hold me to this vision please gals 🤣🫶🏻 and lastly, how are we fast approaching May 😭😭🤯🤯🤯

Note to self: one year from now, come back to this post, on this day & just SEE how far you have come 😭🙏🏻💫
Now it’s not ideal but could be worse 😌 My littles still have their family home 🥹 - which is EVERYTHING to me that they can remain settled throughout, with their dad moving back in, to which of course I need to find my feet and create a new home for them & I ☺️ A challenge I didn’t think would take so long & be so difficult when considering £££, school distance & even feeling confident to start a fresh in new surroundings. The family home has been my comfort zone throughout such a difficult time in my life, yet leaving it feels the hardest/saddest part yet 🤯 A fresh start awaits, and I hope one day I look back at this rock bottom moment and understand why it had to feel so raw & harsh, so uncomfortable. I’m trying to channel excitement at the idea of opening a new door, a new chapter & all the new possibilities that come with a fresh start 🔑 but honestly you can have all the support in the world - and it’s still okay that there feels like there’s an almost impossible mountain infront of you 🤯 I’m sick of pretending I’m thriving when some days I’m literally surviving, doing my best to keep my head above water. Being honest & raw here was always when I felt like showing up here the most, & this week I just can’t give “polished, glowing, spinning the plates perfectly Nadia” she will be back 😏 but “rock bottom Nadia screaming WTF is life” is allowed to take up space too 😂🤣🙏🏻
Anyway whatever the next few months hold - I’m going to crawl out of my pitty party & get that home for me an my 4 babies. (One day) Day one… of rebuilding my life from the ground up 🥹🙏🏻🏡🤍 & with more love & support around me than most, there’s no reason why I can’t. I know I’m not the only parent in the world who had to start again so while your here your best line of advice is SO welcomed 🥹 or a sh*tty joke for me to laugh at wouldn’t go a miss - if you don’t laugh & all that 😭🌚😂😅🙏🏻

Dreamy morning with one of my favourite brands in one of my favourite coffee spots X celebrating the launch of the Hydro Glaze Milky Essence for the ultimate skin hydration & glow 🥛 ✨ ☁️
Been a while since I attended brand events - when life is overwhelming it can feel intimidating walking into spaces alone not knowing who will be behind the doors, I almost talked myself out of going - but lucky for me, the BPerfect team are always the most warm & welcoming, putting me at ease & making me SO glad I showed up to create connections & opportunities in person 🥹✨ and as ever, connecting with likeminded women in the industry is ALWAYS good for the soul- thankyou & for bringing the best energy and motivational chats over making matcha 🍵🥹🤍👏🏻
My skin needed the milky glaze & my soul needed the connection.. what a lovely day 😆☁️
If only “postnatal depression and anxiety me” could have stood at the window and had a peek at this normal, but beautiful moment in time: Me, years on, now better, sitting in town with my four littles playing games, relaxed - without anxiety, on Saturday afternoon so she could see it was all going to work out ❤️🩹🥹
Something so “normal” to most - four kids & their mum having lunch together in a busy town center. But unless you have experienced postnatal depression and/or anxiety surrounding leaving the house with your kids, then your lucky & you won’t realise how much anxious me thought easy, happy and carefree days like this would never come. 🥹❤️🩹
As a first time mum to Mason, we were joined at the hip everyday out about, me walking him in his pram 🥰 I couldn’t drive for that first year of his life so got the bus everywhere with him during the week while his dad was at work, took him to all the baby classes, swimming lessons, coffee shops, walks - you name it, an exhausted but happy bubbly new mum out and about ☺️ Then, from the moment I found out my second baby was infact baby number two, three and four at once, high alert & anxiety was triggered within me. Triplets. So incredible, so life changing and to me getting them here safely, understandably overwhelming. 🤯 My body & mind went into fight or flight instantly. Neonatal unit with them for 3 months, to finally get them home, to then go into lockdown with three newborns & a toddler two weeks later. 😭 My nervous system was shattered from the pregnancy alone, then complications after birth - and so with sleepless nights ontop of that, anxiety manifested. ❤️🩹I gave myself SUCH a hard time for struggling, and honestly looking back, as a new mum of three premature babies at the peak of a worldwide pandemic - NO WONDER. Sitting in that cafe on Saturday was one of those “if that version of me could see me now” moments 🥹🙏🏻 I give myself grace, understanding and so much love for pushing through that difficult time for normal, but the best days like this. For anyone struggling and who can relate to anything above, PLEASE take this as your sign that you CAN breakthrough 🥹🤗🌤️
