Hey Sweet Teas!
Today I turn 21. Part of me is disappointed I haven’t dyed my hair ginger yet, part of me is surprised I made it this far at all.
The biggest lesson I have learnt this year… that no matter how much I overthink, there are some things I will never, ever be prepared for. I feel incredibly lucky to love and be loved by so many people, if I couldn’t hold on to that fact, I am not sure if I would have survived this year. Relationships are the most important thing about life, as I say in one of my first podcast episodes Positivi-tea, they help you live longer. I now know that to be true from firsthand experience.
The relationship we have with ourselves dictates the rest of our life.
The final podcast episode of Season 2 Beau-tea is out now in case you missed it! It’s all about how damaging beauty standards are. I beg of you to reflect on how you view yourself internally, how you act, how you feel, rather than how you look. The world would be a much better, kinder, safer place if we could all look past aesthetics, share our insecurities, and realise how much we all have in common! I know I can’t convince anyone to think of themselves as beautiful… but I hope we might come to the conclusion that beauty really isn’t the most important thing. You are defined by who and what you love. Never by how you look!
By the way, if you’d like to follow along on my political adventures, I have made an instagram account to keep you updated: @blossom.hb
Any advice for me now I’m actually in my 20s? I’d love to hear it!
Love,
HB x
P.S a fun fact about me is that I share my birthday with my favourite person… Happy Birthday Mama!
