How I did with my 2021 goals | this years goals and schedule



2021 was one hell of a year; between everything going on in the world and the uncertainty of what would happen next with covid-19 and having a baby, I didn’t do very well with my yearly goals, and I did expect that to happen, but it’s now 2022; a whole new year, and I know I can do a lot better this year. 


How I did with my 2021 goals 

Back at the beginning of 2021, I made my yearly goals and uploaded them here on my blog; if you missed that post Or have forgotten what my annual goals were, here they are:


  • Take better care of myself
  • Finish writing and editing my books from 2020
  • Publish three books
  • Have 2k youtube subs
  • Have 500 Twitter followers
  • Have 2.5k Instagram followers
  • Have 7k TikTok followers


I didn’t do nearly as well as I thought I would. I did fantastic at taking care of myself up until June 2021, then everything I had done was erased, and I stopped caring for myself. 


I didn’t finish writing or editing my books, but I did get most of the way through editing my book on Endometriosis and made some fantastic progress through my books which are better than nothing having been done. 


I didn’t get to publish any more books after November 2020, but I am so close to publishing one. 


When it comes to my social media goals, I got to  2,300 Instagram followers, 1410 YouTube subscribers, 478 Twitter followers and 5520 tiktok followers. 


Goals for 2022



  • Move to Aussie (or be close to moving)
  • Write 100k words
  • Finish editing Endometriosis book
  • Publish endometriosis books traditionally 
  • Sell things we no longer need
  • Spend less money
  • Get my mental health in check
  • Grow by 100 followers on all social media
  • Make $500 all up from books in the year 
  • Eat healthier 


I made the goals this year to be easier but still challenging. While not many have to do with my writing or social media, I think it will make it easier for myself so that I can actually complete them.

Moving to a new country | with kids

Moving to a new country can be exciting but nerve wracking add in children and it can feel overwhelming to say the least, today I want to share all the advice and tips I have to move overseas after having just made an overseas move for myself with my two young daughters.   Mid January I moved from New Zealand back to Australia, some of you may know that I was actually born in Australia and lived over here until 2011 so for me this was about returning home but for my kids it was moving countries for the first time and while my youngest had no idea what was going on as she was only 3 months old my eldest had a range of emotions and it was honestly quite tough on her at times.   My first bit of advice is to just talk about the move, explain why you’re moving and what to expect in an age-appropriate way so that they can better understand what is going on, talk about all the positives with the move    that would interest them from new experiences to making new friend...

Growing on social media can be hard no matter if you are an individual or a business.    Below I have compiled a list of some times to help you get growing on your chosen social media platform.  1. Define your goals Clarity: Determine what you want to achieve with your social media presence (e.g., brand awareness, lead generation, customer engagement).

Tips for decluttering

Decluttering can help create a more organized and stress-free living space or even just make it easier when it comes time to move.   With my recent move I spent a few months slowly decluttering and downsizing my belongings to make the final step of selling what wasn’t coming and packing what was easier and I thought I would share some of the tips that helped me as an ADHD solo mum of two declutter my house after holding on and hoarding a lot of belongings from throughout the years.  1. Start small Choose a small area to start, like a drawer or a shelf, to avoid feeling overwhelmed. Work for a set amount of time, such as 15 or 30 minutes, to maintain focus and avoid burnout.  2. Sort items Label four boxes as "Keep," "Donate," "Sell," and "Trash." Sort all the items into these categories as you go, this also keeps things clean when you do decide to stop for the day. Remember to handle each item. 3. Evaluate necessity Ask yourself questions like:  ...
