I have less two weeks before I wake up at the slightly more daunting age of 31. These planets sure do roll around fast. Turning 30 didn’t bother me at all, I leapt into it with a big smug smile on my face, a bottle of organic prosecco, a handsome man by my side and a bonfire surrounded by my friends

With environmental issues becoming much more prominent in the mainstream media, a quick google into the textiles and fashion industries will provide you with endless reasons to choose slow fashion. If you didn't follow Fashion Revolution and the #whomademyclothes movement go and check it out, alongside the documentary The True Cost.

This is the first in a series of overly honest product reviews, bought to you by some cringe worthy experiences, one photo of my bum and a small amount of credit card debt.

I was really happy to see Chelsea FC making progressive steps toward gender equality in the news last week with the name change of their club from Chelsea Ladies FC to Chelsea FC Women.

I have a love-hate relationship with festivals. I normally see the line ups and am just reminded that I know nothing about the music industry. I'm ok with that part though, I know my active disengagement in some areas allows me to become focused elsewhere.

I chatted to Boardmasters for ‘Beyond The Break’ - a lifestyle series focusing on surfers who shape the surf scene and beyond; diving into their lives and getting to know them beyond the break.

Wow! What a great panel discussion we had last night at the ACM POP UP x WOMEN IN ACTION SPORTS down in Shoreditch. I joined downhill mountain bike champion Manon Carpenter, GB snow park and pipe performance manager Lesley McKenna, and host Sam Haddad to discuss the biggest issues facing women in action sports.

Noura’s father made her contractually marry her cousin when she was 16, she refused to accept and sought refuge with a relative for three years. She returned after her father said the marriage was cancelled, but had been tricked and was forced into marriage. She refused to consummate the marriage for the first 4 days.

Meet Kadiatu Kamara. She is the first and only woman surfing in Sierra Leone. Let’s make the surfing industry healthier, more diverse and more inclusive, by helping her get to the 2020 Olympics.

It seems I’m becoming increasingly political in my old age. I know this subject may be a little controversial, I know it will be met with resistance, but I care, I really care. And I want more men to care about this too.

On the 5th anniversary of the Rana Plaza factory collapse, which killed 1,138 people and injured many more in 2013, I encourage you to ask brands #whomademyclothes and demand greater transparency in the fashion supply chain.

Often when I open up a discussion about women’s issues, such as the over-sexualisation of female athletes, violence against women, or the exploitation of female factory workers in developing countries, the natural discourse tends to be someone asking “what about the men?”

While I was in London this week I met up with my friend Matt Barr for lunch, and we had a good little catch up on the whole media farrago I was in over the last couple of weeks.

INTRODUCING Dearbhla Glynn // Human Rights Filmmaker, Journalist, Photographer, Woman, Storyteller, Yoga Instructor, Realist and many other things.

I’m constantly asking myself this and I’m still figuring it out.

Lets take it slow, be responsible, maybe even commit to a long term relationship? After all, loved things are worth repairing.

This morning I went live with Jenni Murray on BBC Radio 4 Woman's Hour. We discussed the sexualisation of female athletes, the damaging monoculture we are all too often presented within the media, and the importance of more diverse role models.

As a female athlete, I’m upset by how the media has portrayed me – and I’m determined not to be quiet anymore

Yesterday I was not an angry feminist. Yesterday I was joking about the mishaps of my mooncup. Today, however, I am an angry feminist, and I'm about to roar.

I am finally hosting my first ever retreat. Not somewhere tropical, but on my doorstep, at The Cliffs of Moher Retreat Centre, a purpose-designed, luxury venue, set against the backdrop of the Atlantic Ocean, the Cliffs of Moher and the beautiful countryside of Co.Clare, Ireland.
