First day of psychology placement… done! ✅️

Today I had the absolute joy of stepping into a high school setting for my very first day as a psychology placement student—and I honestly couldn't be more grateful. Schools really are living, breathing communities, and I already feel so lucky to be a small part of it.

The day was full of introductions, observations, and learning all the systems and processes that support student wellbeing. And tomorrow, I get to do it all again—but this time in a primary school!

Naturally, it was my mission to show up as my colourful, vibrant, quirky, pink-coordinated self—complete with floral pants, pink glasses, and lots of energy to match. Because why not sprinkle a little joy into the halls, right? 😜

For those who’ve followed my journey over the past 8 years—you know this moment is huge. It’s been a long, winding road, but I’m finally here.

Thank you to every single person who has encouraged, empowered, and supported me along the way. I carry your belief in me as I step into this exciting new chapter. 💕

✨️ Limerence✨️
Is it love or obsession?

That intoxicating rush, the endless daydreaming, the way they occupy your every thought....But is it real love, or just an illusion?💭

Limerence is an intense infatuation that can feel like love, but often, it's driven by fantasy rather than true connection. Understanding the difference can help you navigate your emotions and build healthier relationships.

Have you ever experienced the intoxicating feeling of limerence? Let's talk in the comments and share your experience 👇
