Headstrong

I sat down with model and entrepreneur Lottie Moss to talk about her experiences with her mental health. As Lottie made it into the public eye from a young age finding fame, she began to lose control and was plied with drugs and alcohol within the fashion industry. She soon began to realise that she did not love the industry, and left it. Lottie now uses OnlyFans as a platform to take ownership and control of the content she creates, and is thriving, seemingly happier than ever. __Want more?

I was lucky enough to sit down with England opening batsman Ben Duckett following the incredible win by the England Test Team on Monday 5th December 2022, in what is being dubbed one of the best Test matches of all time. Ben scored a ton in the opening innings, followed by a golden duck in the second, but played a significant role in this test win.
