About Me

Hey, I’m Becky!

Wife, mum of three, cat herder, and a woman constantly chasing the impossible dream of an Instagram-worthy home—
while running two businesses and trying to keep up with life.

I have ridiculously high expectations of myself—I want to travel the world, give my kids the world, and somehow keep my sanity while doing it.
In reality? I spend my days working, rushing between school runs and activities, and wondering if I’m actually getting anywhere.

Saving money is my superpower—whether it’s cashback, discount vouchers, or any other trick that helps me spend more time
with my family and give them the experiences they deserve.

Ice hockey fan (go Sheffield Steelers!)
Gig addict (lifelong Foo Fighters fan)
Lover of comedy, music, and reminiscing about the late ‘90s/early ‘00s.

Before kids, I spent my days backpacking or working rubbish jobs to fund my next trip—until I settled down in the travel industry.
Now, I juggle parenting, work, and the never-ending quest for balance.

This blog is my space to share the chaos of motherhood—the funny, the messy, and the ‘am I doing this all wrong?’ moments.
Because let’s be honest, mums can never win. If you work, you’re bad. If you stay home, you’re bad. Buy everything? Bad. Buy nothing? Also bad.

The truth? If you’re worrying about whether you’re doing enough, you already are. It’s taken me 17 years to realize that I’m doing my best—
even if it looks different from everyone else’s.

Welcome to the misadventure. Let’s embrace the madness together.
