From music industry life, to #MomLife. I'm all about documenting my adventures in modern motherhood, while running an award-winning music blog (Grimy Goods).

It wasn’t too long ago that I had someone trying to hack my Instagram via a phony collaboration email. Since then I’ve had at least two more attempts on my Instagram account. Considering some of the videos I produce and the content I create for brands are featured on my […]
2019 was fu*king fantastic. I got MYSELF back. Becoming a mother is wonderful, the greatest experience (for me) — however, I felt like I lost myself. I mean, for fuck’s sake, I was wearing floral dresses! Dafuq?! Whether you wear all-black or bright florals, it doesn’t change the kind of […]
Watch out for Instagram hackers, they’re on the rise and pulling clever Instagram scams! Don’t fall victim to these digital rodents. It can cost you your entire Instagram account.
