PGP / SPD My story:

Too many people hate online — and it’s worth remembering this: Projections are not facts. They are not informed perspectives. They are fragments of someone else’s unresolved pain, fear, or insecurity, thrown outward. We don’t exist to absorb that damage. Most of us are here to help, to contribute, to make things a little safer or kinder for someone else — and that does matter. Quietly. Consistently. Even when strangers try to drown it out with noise. Take the hate if you must — but don’t carry it. Hold a mirror up to poor behaviour without becoming it. Name harm without internalising it. And always remember this truth: It is their responsibility to fix themselves. You cannot reason with the unreasonable. You are not required to shrink, soften, or explain your humanity to be treated with respect. Boundaries are not cruelty. Walking away is not weakness. Continuing to help — despite the hate — is strength. Let them keep projecting. You keep doing the work that matters. ❤️ Sarah Wingfiel...

In a world filled with abusers, I would rather whistleblow and safeguard than stay silent and allow harm to continue. You’re not always believed. You’re not always listened to. Often, people only understand once it happens to them too. That’s why abusers hide behind good deeds, reputations, and performative “helping.” Genuine, authentic people take accountability. They correct their behaviour. Apologies come with changed actions. Abusers don’t do that. Instead, they surround themselves with people shouting about the “amazing work” they do — not to protect others, but to silence victims. Some of those people don’t even realise they’re enabling abuse. They think they’re defending someone they admire. But if someone were truly good, there wouldn’t be victims trying to hold them to account. Period. When this behaviour exists inside organisations, support groups, or positions of power, they are not there to help people — they are there to help themselves. Abuse is hidden behind an army. Pow...

 ✨ I’m taking part in this BBC careers webinar — and I’m genuinely excited to learn. ✨ On 18 February, I’ll be joining “Inside the Broadcast: Careers That Power the BBC”, a behind-the-scenes webinar exploring the roles and people that keep the BBC running 24/7. What I’m most looking forward to is learning directly from BBC professionals working in Media Operations and Broadcast Engineering — the areas we don’t usually see, but that make everything possible. I want to understand more about how live broadcasting actually functions day-to-day, how teams coordinate under pressure, and what skills really matter in modern media roles. As someone who’s always been curious about how creative industries actually work behind the scenes, this session feels especially valuable. I’m keen to hear real career journeys, how people got their foot in the door, how they’ve adapted as the industry evolves, and what opportunities are emerging now — particularly in technical, operational and cross-disci...

Devaluation in Narcissist Parents: They devalue their partner, then their children — then act like it’s someone else’s fault. ❤️‍🩹 Some ways devaluation shows up (especially when children are involved): • Abandonment without accountability Leaving a partner, but telling the child alone, controlling the narrative while excluding the other parent. • Manufactured struggle They create chaos or a “problem,” then present themselves as the hero who “fixed it” to appear like the better parent. • Replacement narratives Telling the child they’ve been “replaced” by an ex-partner or new partner — or implying they are — to provoke fear, insecurity, or loyalty conflict. • Financial avoidance with entitlement They don’t contribute to child trust funds, savings, or long-term security — yet expect the other parent to fund everything while taking credit or demanding access. • Triangulation They pit people against each other (child vs parent, ex vs new partner) to maintain control and avoid accountabili...

  Emily Nails & Beauty Valentine's Treat: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 ❤️ I honestly can’t recommend this nail salon enough. Every single visit I’m made to feel genuinely welcome, comfortable, and cared for — which matters so much to me. Their work is consistently beautiful, creative, and immaculate, and the range of styles they can do is incredible. They’ve created ombré, Halloween, flames, neon, girly sets, French, Valentine’s designs and more for me — and every single set has been flawless. What really sets them apart is how well they adapt nails to you. They’ve done nails for my film work, music shows, and my own personal aesthetic, always understanding the brief and elevating it beyond expectations. Whether I need something bold and eye-catching, soft and feminine, or statement nails that work on camera, they always deliver. Talented, friendly, professional, and creative — I always leave feeling confident and happy. If you’re looking for a salon that truly listens and produces stunning ...

 ~Valentine’s Day 💕~ Peter and I exchanged gifts and cards, then popped to visit my parents. We took my mam some birthday gifts in advance and dropped a few treats off for dad too. Bam was gaming but got a lovely hug from me. 🥰 After that, we headed back home, chilled out, relaxed, and had a cosy night in together. No rush, no pressure — just comfort, love, and calm. Sometimes the simplest days are the most meaningful. 💞 — Sarah Wingfield 💐 #ValentinesDay #ValentinesDay2026 #Love #QualityTime #SimpleMoments Alt text: A pastel, scrapbook-style Valentine’s Day collage in soft pinks and creams with cherry blossom accents.
