Hey girlies. I’m Laney, the founder of Plainly Laney, the documentation of my journey to be a better me.  I want to thank you for being here. So here is a little bit about me- I was born and raised in Kent in the South-East of England, I’ve moved around Kent a bit but absolutely love Canterbury. I am a quarter Spanish which I love about myself, mainly because the culture is so amazing. 

 

I am currently studying education studies at Canterbury Christ Church University as I have always wanted to work with children. I think it comes from my love of helping people, which is why I got into influencing and blogging.

 

Like most girls and women, I am on a journey to be better in so many different ways. Whether that is my journey to be a more positive person, or my journey to love myself just like we all should, and hopefully this will help you to begin your journey too. 

 

So, what made me start this journey? Well, it was lockdown. My mental health was at an all-time low, I lost a lot of friends and realised a lot about myself. I’ve been thinking of branching out and starting a blog for a while, but I was always uncertain and the thought of embarrassing other people really kept me from doing it. But I decided that that I craved more. I wanted to be myself and so I dreamed bigger and here we are. 

 

I want to empower women in a way that puts it plainly.  So, it’s okay not to be okay, and you are perfect just as you are, but the only person that needs to be happy with the way you are is you. 

 

Starting a journey is hard and a journey to be a better you may be the hardest journey but if you want to come on this journey with me subscribe to my newsletter to never miss a post.
