– or learning to ask the universe and yourself for answers to those tougher questions If you know me, you know that my approach to life is holistic. That I attack things from all corners and as my sister in Germany said to me today, I persevere. I don’t give up, and I succeed inContinue reading “Practicing Peaceful Empowerment with Pat Through Meditation”

International Womens Day 2019
I always feel a little out of sorts when it comes to International Womens Day. I mean I am female-bodied, but I don’t identify as female. So where does that leave me in the grand scheme of things? There are Trans Exclusionary Radical Feminists who would say that today has nothing to do with me.Continue reading “International Womens Day 2019”
Sailing Somewhere – on a cruise ship with Suanne Braun
It’s always, and I do mean always, a treat to see Suanne Braun perform. Especially when you find yourself in an intimate theatre setting where you’re sat (unintentionally) in the front row, or on this occasion at one of the front tables by the maître d’.
Goodbye 2018….
This year has been an interesting one. As with all others there have been some ups and downs and I’m sure there are so many things that I could mention that will get missed along the way.
I’m tired
I’m tired. Perhaps that’s the hardest thing to explain. Because when I say I’m tired, I don’t mean that I’m just ‘tired’, I mean that I’m tired to my very soul. I’m tired of being a chronic pain patient. I’m tired of being in pain all the time, I’m tired of having to explainContinue reading “I’m tired”
The Cherry Orchard – Two hours of your life you won’t want back.

Small audiences, close to the stage, no matter where’re you’re sitting, and that feeling of the fourth wall being so close that you literally are the fly on the wall (and for this drama student a throwback to the days of drama studios andContinue reading “The Cherry Orchard – Two hours of your life you won’t want back.”
Sometimes we put in more than we get out
It’s January, I have a release coming up in less than two months, I’m quite frankly, so busy, my blog has been neglected in favour of my newsletter (sign up in the footer).
#Apologia – a true West End Gem
Occasionally you get an opportunity in life so rare that you have to grasp it by the neck and relish it with everything you’ve got. Yesterday was one such day. My sister and I travelled to London for various reasons and decided to stop by the TKTS booth on the off chance we could getContinue reading “#Apologia – a true West End Gem”
Consent in a non-consent world
At 35, I’m pretty much settled on the basics of what I do and do not like in life. I love hot chocolate made with coconut milk on cold winter days (especially when laced with marshmallows), long hot baths that ease my fibromyalgia, curling up with my sister for a Netflix binge of one ofContinue reading “Consent in a non-consent world”
Who’s the F***ing Snowflake?
A rundown of the past week: I posted about my past and lost a friend of 17 years who thought it was more important for me to do something they wanted me to do than that I finally felt able to say ‘This is me, this is why I have PTSD.’ Only a few monthsContinue reading “Who’s the F***ing Snowflake?”
