This year taught me 12 things - none of them gentle: 1. Reinvention doesn’t wait for permission 2. Fear isn’t a stop sign 3. Your body can still do incredible things 4. Consistency beats talent 5. Independent ≠ alone 6. Build the door if it won’t open 7. #1 Amazon book = dreams don’t expire 8. Kids are my greatest achievement 9. Watching them grow up is joy + whiplash 10. Motherhood evolves 11. Life changes fast (and across continents) 12. You’re allowed to grow too If you’re in a season of change, you’re becoming. Happy New Year ✨ #nevertoolate #NewYear2026 #LifeLessons linktr.ee/howagangstarapper

As a Gen Xer, @MTV without music videos still blows my mind 🤯 And Roy reckons X Factor + The Voice helped make music too “safe”. 👀 I’m torn… did music lose some of its edge? Let’s discuss!

Hey peeps… my mom is in her 80s & travels to visit us often. She flies in business class & would almost always have a blanket wrapped around her cuz it’s typically cold on flights. Today a young man was on my flight & he was in row 1. He had his blanket wrapped around him cuz the plane was freezing. The stewardess insisted he remove his blanket for landing. Is this a new @British_Airways policy? She told him if he doesn’t remove the blanket the pilot can’t land the plane and they would have to circle around until he does! Like is this for real??

Remember when hearing a DJ blend two records perfectly felt completely revolutionary? 🎧 @peztellett & Roy go back to the early days of turntables, mixing and the US influence that changed club culture. 🎙️linktr.ee/thegenxperiencepod…
