My 2026 Ins & Outs
My 2026 Ins
Embracing my curly hair. I'm trying to let the curls come back naturally, but sometimes I will put my hair in plaits and then add extra curls so it doesn't look like bedhead hair LOL.
Simple skin care routines. We don't need heaps of skin care products, just the basics. I am loving using sheet masks, moisturiser, and a vitamin E toner.
Not caring what others think of me.
Reading (both ebooks and physical copies). Reading makes you smarter and helps with writing in general.
Solo dates. I want to take myself to more places, like going to the Zoo by myself or going into the CBD for a photo day.
Not caring what others think of me.
Eating more fruit, especially kiwifruit.
Putting my health first.
Linen clothing. It's much more breathable and comfy.
Waking up early. Working on this one. So far, I've been waking up around 7 AM.
Getting my steps in.
Listening to more music.
Celebrating small wins.
Posting more on Substack.
Matcha & Turmeric Lattes.
Ocean swims and sunsets.
Setting clear boundaries.
Mindfulness.
Writing.

My 2026 Outs
Doom scrolling - sometimes I just stare at my phone, and nothing is going on. I try to find alternatives to socials like Flipboard and Substack (because they're reading-based).
Flat stomachs. I'm a woman, I have ovaries, my stomach shouldn't be flat LOL.
Poor sleep hygiene. I have been working on this one for a while. My psych says reading in bed is okay, but I'm not sure what my POTS physio is going to say.
Overthinking.
Too much takeaway. I think once a month is okay right now.
Negative self-talk.
Skinny jeans. So uncomfortable, why do we millennials like this look so much?
Unnecessary spending.
Letting anxiety dominate my life.
Generative AI that's not built for accessibility (AI sucks, but I can see where it could be helpful - the weird sh*t that's happening right now with it isn't normal).
Excusing bad behaviour. For example, "boys will be boys". Ew.
Billionaires.
Fascism.
Too many subscriptions (we're cutting back).
People pleasing.
Too much clutter.
