November How Bob Dylan created the ultimate personal brand Graphic Design / Branding
Before everyone started obsessing over “personal branding” on social media and polishing their LinkedIn headlines, there was someone who got it right before anyone else: Robert Zimmerman. You probably know him better as Bob Dylan. Originally from a middle-class Jewish family in Minnesota, Zimmerman reinvented himself as a wandering outlaw poet who escaped from the […]

August Jung’s Concept of the Self, Made Easy to Understand Psychology
Being a very visual thinker makes it hard to fully grasp abstract ideas, and Jung’s theory of the psyche is no exception.

June Sifting Out the Weeds Self Development
Weeds got me thinking about what we consider ‘bad’ in life and whether that’s really fair. I have a small allotment in Oxford which I share with my sister. We’re not quite as dedicated as the lovely retirees who seem to live there, but we do our best to look after our little patch: lavender, […]

As I mentioned in my first post, I want this space to be somewhere I can evolve my thinking.

March How being a disagreeable child became an adult super-power New Blog
When I think back to my most formative years, my parents often remind me how much trouble I caused as a child. I was a fussy eater, I outright refused to do my maths homework, and if I couldn’t be persuaded to complete something, it became a constant battle. My sister, on the other hand, […]

March A Fresh Start: What’s Next? New Blog
Hey, so if you know me at all, you know I’m kind of obsessed with making websites. I mean, my full-time job is literally designing and building them. But for some reason, making my own site has always been way harder than making ones for other people. Pretty sure this is the sixth version I’ve […]
