Three Months at No Boring Brands ✅

Gooood morning 👋

How are you doing today?

Towards the middle of June 2026, I started working with one of my best mates, Aidan, and the team at No Boring Brands. After three months, it’s pretty safe to say that so much has happened, even though this is only the beginning of some awesome things to come.

And that’s what we’re going to be taking a look at in today’s blog. Let’s get into it 💃

One Last Dance – A Sweeney Story

Good afternoon 👋

How’s your weekend going?

I’ve shared a load of different stories with you over the years, whether they were from my childhood, my travels, ones I’ve heard from other people, or something else entirely. I love telling stories, and I want to revisit one in particular that I’ve shared a few times on here.

This is one I call “One Last Dance”, and it’s a short and sweet story about me and Nana. So, let’s take a look at it.

Taking foot a little bit off the pedal

Goood morning 👋

How has your week started?

Life has been a bit all systems go lately, which is fantastic to see; however, I can’t lie, I have been feeling a little bit exhausted with everything. With all of this in mind, I decided to take this past weekend a little slower – which is exactly what I wanted to talk about with you today.

Owning who you are

Good morning 👋

What does it mean to be properly listened to for you?

Growing up with a stutter, I learnt early on how powerful having a voice really is for somebody. It’s something I’ve chatted about a lot on the page over the last couple of years, and what I wanted to write a little bit more about for you today.

How do we start more conversations around mental health?

Good morning 👋

How are you doing lately?

I don’t mean superficially, but really doing?

I’ve got a question for you today…

Good morning 🌅

Hope you’re having a lovely start to the day!

I like to think of myself as someone who asks good questions – the ones that make you stop for a minute and really think before answering. I’ve been testing out some of these questions lately – whether in networking events or catch-ups with friends, and wanted to ask one to you today.

Gooood morning 👋

How are you doing today?

Sometimes, in life, we forget how great it is to have people with us along certain parts of our journey. It’s along this train of thought that we’re going to take today’s blog, as we take a look at a recent story that happened to me at work.

Alzheimer’s – we need to talk about it

Good morning 👋

What’s a memory that always sticks with you?

This is a question that I love asking new people, as you never really know where their answers might take your conversation. However, for today, I wanted to use it to start a conversation around something a little different – Alzheimer’s.

This is a topic that lies very close to my heart, and I want to give it the attention it deserves; we’ll be taking a look at why that is in today’s blog.
