Some easy sustainable swaps for your bathroom

Over the last few years I’ve been challenging myself to be more considerate of the waste that I create (and more specifically single use plastics). I talk a lot on Instagram about remembering to take your reusable cup to get coffee, but there are other easy sustainable swaps I’ve made. Seeing as it’s Earth Day, I thought I’d share them on here. It’s good time to consider how we can be kinder to our environment. If you can think of any other easy sustainable swaps, let me know View Post

Review: Wairakei Terraces and Thermal Health Spa

Swimming in the first pool, under the waterfall.

Wairakei Terraces is one of our favourite places to visit when we are in Taupō. There’s nothing quite like soaking in a thermal pool – it leaves my mind and body feeling relaxed! Whenever I post about going for a swim there I always get lots of people asking about it, so I thought I should share a Wairakei Terraces review. View Post

What’s your 2021 Word of the Year?

NYE 2020: New Zealand plus size blogger Meagan Kerr wears Isla-Maree Florence Dress in Jungle size XL 24

Happy New Year, my friends! It’s been a while, but I’m back and feeling motivated to write again. I’ve seen some people sharing their “word of the year” for 2021. The idea is that instead of writing New Year’s resolutions, you pick a word to guide you for the year. It can be something you want more of in your life or something you’d like to improve at. Perhaps something you’d like to focus on or something to remind you of a goal.

I’m not really a resolution-y person. However, I kind of like the idea of having a focus to come back to, something that guides you. It’s short, snappy and I can easily stick it on a post-it note I see every day. View Post

Weight Stigma Causes Harm

This week Judith Collins (a politician, for those of you not from Aotearoa) made some ignorant comments about fat people. To be honest I’m not all that surprised to see someone in a position of power making ill informed inaccurate comments about marginalised groups of people. I’m not surprised because as a fat Māori woman, it’s something that I notice people doing on an almost daily basis. I wanted to talk for a sec about the fact that weight stigma (and Judith’s comments, which perpetuate it) are harmful. View Post
