Why did you start blogging?
As cliché as this may sound, ever since the birth of my son, I have this new found love and appreciation for life. Too often in the past, I’ve moaned about how dull life is and found myself constantly being stuck in ruts. So… I decided to do something about it. I created a bucket list of 100 things I wanted to do before I essentially ‘kicked the bucket’ to give my life a bit more vigour! Of course, I wanted to encourage others to do the same and share my journey so I created a blog about it!
What is your favourite part about blogging?
The fact that I can share this journey with others and inspire them to do the same. The positive feedback I have received has been amazing! From this blog I have encouraged others to write their own bucket lists.
How do you manage juggling family life with blogging?
I only post when I have the spare time. I am very dedicated to my son, so I work around his schedule. Sometimes I find its nice to write a post at the end of a long day. Blogging is surprisingly therapeutic.
Any advice to new/other bloggers?
Just go for it. If you think you have something interesting to write about then just do it. You’ll be surprised at how interested others are in hearing your stories.
