Thank you for inviting me to share my story with your readers.

November 2010 was the year I was diagnosed with Epilepsy.

I may only be in my late twenties, but apparently my optimal child bearing years are slowly starting to tail off (according to society, that is, not me).

The phrase turn that frown upside down applies when it comes to new brand fleur. Turning period days into pamper days (as owner Cristine says), fleur is on a mission to make those dark days a little lighter.

This isn't a post about giving birth during lockdown, because thankfully I didn't have that experience.

Growing up with dual heritage and a different mother tongue had many challenges and many benefits.

Have you ever heard of lymphatic massage? No? Well until a few weeks ago, I hadn’t either.

There’s one thing common to all people. In life, we all face pain. Not a cheery way to start an article, but very few of us go through life untouched by some kind of physical or mental pain.
