The Autumnal Recipe I’m Making On Repeat
Julius Roberts’ Chicken Tarragon
The Farm Table by Julius Roberts is always open on my kitchen side, and his Chicken Tarragon recipe has fast become a family favourite. There’s something so comforting about this one-pot wonder – it’s simple, hearty, and fills the kitchen with the most deliciously warming smell. Perfect for those cosy November nights!
The Books I’m Reading...
Suzy Reading’s Self-Care For Winter and Louise Webster's A Way for Mothers
This new release from Suzy Reading is just what I need right now. Her tips on seasonal self-care and managing S.A.D are incredibly helpful. It’s full of simple strategies to turn those dreary winter months into a more joyful season that you can actually look forward to. We even did an Instagram live together recently, so head over there if you’d like more ideas on how to bring a bit of winter wellbeing into your own life!
I'm also really enjoying Louise Webster's - A New Way For Mother’s. It's all about women who have put their interests on hold to care for their children and how reconnecting with their career can be such a huge challenge. It's super inspiring and gives some great (and practical) step-by-step advice on finding both purpose and balance.

The Product Saving My Skin…
Paula’s Choice Vitamin C-15 Super Booster
As the days get shorter and we lose some natural light, my skin craves that extra bit of glow. This is my current go-to (and has been for a while) for brightening and protecting against the dulling effects of colder weather. It’s become an essential in my winter skincare routine.
The Best Piece of Advice…
“When something is right for you, it will give you energy.”
This advice really resonates with me. I love the reminder that the things that nourish us will uplift and energise, even when life feels chaotic.
The New Part of My Morning Routine…
I’ve added AG1 Greens to my mornings, and it’s such a great way to get those essential nutrients in one go. A quick mix in water and it’s done! It’s an easy (and delicious) habit that helps me feel energised and ready to take on the day.
The NEOM Candle I’m Burning…
With the days getting darker, I’ve been lighting Cosy Nights – it's super comforting, and brings a warm, enveloping vibe to any room. Fragrance expert Alice du Parcq sums it up perfectly as smelling just like a roaring open fire. Perfect for an evening wind-down, this scent is all about creating that calm, welcoming space. We’ve also got an Essential Oil Blend to pop in your Wellbeing Pod too.
The New Supplement I’m Trialling…
I’m trying out Healthy Metal for my magnesium fix this month, and I’m loving it! Their Magnesium Glycinate sachets taste amazing with a raspberry lemon zing, and I genuinely look forward to them. Magnesium is a wonder for sleep, stress relief, and muscle recovery – just what my body needs as the busy holiday season ramps up.
