Hey friends,

No OG content for ya today I’m afraid. I’ve had a busy week and needed to reprioritise so I don’t work myself into the ground. Learning to self care like a BAWSE! (ish… I’m getting there..!).

I’m sharing this with you today as a reminder to take a break too and look after yourself ✨💕

In the meantime, I’ve collated some interesting reads to keep you busy below.

I hope you enjoy!

Bisous!

Sanya 😊
