Hey Ladies, welcome to Chai Sips and Mum Tips…
My name is Kimmy, I’m twenty-nine years young (yes, young), a mother of one and I live in London.
If you’re part of the 5 AM club, now’s the time to put the kettle on. If you’re more of the after-5 PM club, grab a glass of wine. Or, if you’re on your way to work, find the comfiest spot on the train or bus, because we’re about to dive into the feels.
As a child, I was passionate about reading, writing, fashion, and dancing. While most of these interests have stuck with me over the years, none have matched my love for writing. Writing has always been something I was not only good at, but also something I truly enjoyed. I’ve always had a diary or a notebook close by. My diaries gave me a place to express my thoughts and feelings every day, while my notebooks were my creative outlet, where I could let my imagination flow freely and write stories.
I also think my love for writing was influenced by Girl Talk magazine.
Do you remember Girl Talk? What a time to be alive!
From the moment I picked up those magazines, I knew I wanted to be successful, happy, and beautiful. But Girl Talk was more than just celebrity posters and beauty tips, it inspired young girls to love themselves, be confident and believe in the importance of becoming someone they could be proud of.
Unfortunately, today’s younger generation doesn’t have the same resources. They face unrealistic expectations, mostly because of the pressures of social media and the digital age. Young girls no longer dream of being teachers, lawyers, or dancers. Instead, many aspire to be YouTubers or reality TV stars, because society has placed more value on those careers (no shade to those industries). But true success is defined by the individual.
Let this be a reminder, because we all need them sometimes: Success is not about popularity or material things. True success comes when you achieve your goals and feel fulfilled in your life and career.
This blog is my way of uplifting and empowering mothers by sharing my experiences, useful resources, and advice that can help nurture growth, confidence, and well-being.
I believe that the challenges of motherhood and growing up are deeply connected. Through this blog, I hope to create a space where mothers can find guidance in raising their children, and where all women can find inspiration and practical tools to navigate their own unique challenges.
My goal is to offer a mix of parenting tips, share relatable stories, provide personal development resources, share seasonal fashion tips, and create fun, creative content that will resonate with mothers everywhere.
As mothers, we face many pressures and obstacles. Through this blog, I want to offer support, knowledge, and a sense of community that will help empower us with confidence as we journey through motherhood. I hope it will inspire us to reflect, take action, and keep moving forward.
This blog is something I’ve wanted to create for over a decade, but out of fear of the unknown, I’ve always put it on hold. Looking back, I truly believe that if I had started at any other time, I wouldn’t have the same knowledge and experiences I’ve gained over the years. I am a God-fearing woman, and at this stage in my life, I’ve come to understand that God has blessed me with this passion for a higher purpose. Over the past decade, I’ve explored many business ventures, some driven by a desire to make money, others sparked by growing interests, but God has consistently shown me that this field is where my focus should be and everything else will fall into place afterwards.
I hope you’ve enjoyed my long introduction, and that you’re as excited as I am for my first post.
Love,
Kimmy ♡
