Something I’ve realised recently… The smaller my world became, the bigger tinnitus felt.

When I was really struggling, I honestly didn’t do much. I stayed in A LOT. Overthought everything. Focused on my tinnitus constantly. Life felt very small because, if I’m honest, I was scared.

But over time, I’ve realised something really important:

Healing (for me) wasn’t about waiting for tinnitus to go away before I lived again.

It was about slowly, gently making my world bigger.

Journaling. Drawing. Creating routines. Meeting new people. Starting things that felt scary or out of character…

Even recently joining a run club (which still feels weird to say 🤣). I’ve only gone three times, but I’m already noticing how good it feels to have something for me and it’s something that gets me out of my own head.

None of these things “fixed” my tinnitus. I still have tinnitus.

But they helped me feel more like me again.

Tinnitus can feel huge when it becomes the centre of your world. Sometimes, the answer isn’t making tinnitus smaller, it’s slowly making your life bigger.

I hope this helps someone who needs it today, sending all my love x

Tinnitus changed my life… but in many ways, for the better!

It pushed me in ways I never thought possible and made me so much stronger than I ever imagined I could be. I’ve learnt how to live alongside something that once completely consumed me.

I still have tinnitus. I still hear it. But it no longer rules my life.

That’s exactly why I created The Tinnitus Journaling Club to help others realise they are not alone, and that there truly is hope, even if it doesn’t feel like it right now.

If you’re struggling, feeling stuck, or simply want to be around people who truly get it, we’d love to welcome you into our little tinnitus family 🩷

I hope to see you there!

Spent yesterday at the ‪@RNIDUK‬ ‘It Does Matter’ campaign event at St Pancras International💚🦻🏻

The campaign highlights the invisible communication barriers deaf people and people with hearing loss face every single day, and why better awareness and understanding really does matter.

I took part in some fun interviews, tried the lip reading challenge, learnt some sign language & met some lovely people throughout the day. Such a creative and impactful way to raise awareness during Deaf Awareness Week ✨

More videos from the day coming soon 👀

Now I’m on the other side, helping others through their own hearing journeys and working towards becoming an audiologist 🩷

What started as something personal has become something so deeply meaningful… and healing.

There’s something so special about that moment when someone realises I truly understand, because I know how much I needed that myself.

Very grateful to be part of the Steven Hale Hearing team!

Even with tinnitus, you’re still moving forward.

You’re doing more than you give yourself credit for🩷

I once thought tinnitus would ruin my life, but in a strange way, tinnitus has made me notice life more.

The warmth of the sun, the sound of the breeze, the feeling of being present in a moment instead of rushing past it.

It doesn’t have to be silent to be peaceful 🩷

My mantra is: “I choose stillness”

Even when my tinnitus feels loud, coming back to the present moment helps me feel grounded again. Sitting with the sound, noticing my thoughts, and letting them pass instead of fighting them has been such an important part of my journey.

Tinnitus can feel overwhelming at times, and having something gentle and steady to return to makes all the difference.

If you don’t have a mantra yet, maybe this is your sign to create one. Think of something that brings you a sense of calm and safety when you need it most 🩷

For me, living with tinnitus is all about balance.

There was a time I genuinely believed a “full” life wouldn’t be possible with tinnitus. I thought that it would hold me back, limit me, or take things away.

But over time, I’ve learned it just becomes something you learn to live alongside.

These photos are a little glimpse into my reality right now. Some days are louder than others, and some moments take more energy. But with the right balance, support, and mindset, life can still feel rich, meaningful, and full of the things that matter most.

If you’re in the middle of figuring it all out, you’re not alone and I hope my story can give you some positivity 🩷🌷✨

Tinnitus doesn’t have to disappear for things to feel okay again, it just has to matter less over time🧡
