Hello, happy Friday,

It’s just a few more hours until the weekend and boy, am I ready for it. I am, quite honestly, knackered. I don’t know if you guys have been feeling this way recently but I’ve been in hamster-on-a-hamster-wheel mode; one thing after another with no space in between for a rest and reset. Physically and mentally, I am done in.

Don’t get me wrong, I am so grateful for all the work that’s been keeping me busy. I bloody love what I do. I’ve just done a piece for the Guardian that was really interesting to report and I have a really exciting FT commission I am dead chuffed about. This newsletter is doing really well, and I have just started Substack’s Grow programme to hopefully take it to the next level. And I’m working on something very exciting I can’t wait to tell you all about. It’s going well, and I am so pleased, but success makes it incredibly hard to stop and have a rest, you know? You really feel the FOMO.
