Hello! My name is Natalé Beckles and I have been toying with the idea of starting a blog for the past two years. I have finally decided to pluck up enough courage and take the leap. After trying to spread as much positivity, motivation and my tips and tricks, using Instagram’s ‘Stories’ mode, I found that a lot of the content I was placing on the stories contained words. More and more, as I continued to spread information via this way and people commented on how they found it encouraging and useful, it spurred me on, to place this information somewhere more permanent, in a place which was better suited to the format of words and allows me to get my message across in an easily accessible space, where a person can access it at any time. From a young age, I have always had my head in a book or hand on a pen. Writing has always been my source of comfort and a place for me to sort through the many thoughts which often fly through my mind, at a record pace. So in some ways the creation of my content helps me and provides me with many positive benefits, which in turn I hope proves to be positive for you too.
I am a Project Manager by day and a Manic Organiser by night! I have 2 Degrees and have worked in the Legal Industry for 10+ years, firstly in a Law Firm and now for a Technology company, managing and consulting on legal cases across the world as well as working for large corporations and managing their investigations. Whilst working many 70+ hour weeks and having lost the two closest people in my life, in the past decade, I have been through some of the most stressful and darkest periods of my life. But through it all, I have always maintained by positive outlook and have/continue to work on myself mentally and physically, challenging myself and growing every day. It may sound like a cliché but my main focus is on ‘Who I am as a person and who I wish to be’, first, (something which I remind myself of daily) as it allows me to make conscious decisions in my everyday life, which allows me to continue growing towards the person that I wish to be now and in the future.
In a world which is full of so many beautifully created pictures, my aim is to provide the further colour and talk openly and honestly of what is behind the pictures. The purpose of my blog primarily, is to spread as much positivity and motivation as possible (if I can make a positive impact to 1 person a year, then I will view this blog as a success). Secondarily, I want to use this space, to pass on my ‘tips and tricks’, lifestyle choices, routines, my general mind wandering thoughts, products I love/use, things that I love to do as well as any other helpful things I learn along the way. No doubt this blog will change and grow, as time develops and I grow, but I hope for it to remain centred around my goals.
