Continuing with the One Thing series… From time to time I come across humans who just astound me with their whimsy. They do something a bit you’re-not-meant-to-do-that. I’ve noticed there’s usually One Thing that prompted them, or motivates them, or keeps them happy and therefore whimsical. I’m always busting to tap them on the shoulder and ask, “What’s your One Thing”.
Gala Darling: my one thing is ‘radical self love’
I first met Gala when I was editing Cosmo. I’d seen her blog and loved her writing style and gave her a column in the mag. She then moved to New York, I moved on, but we’ve stayed in touch. She now earns an income from her blog and the related projects she’s involved in via her following. She’s a very special, quirky!! person. Who has remained true to her soul. And the world has come to her. When she shares a tip for how she keeps it real, you want to listen up!
Sarah: So, what’s your One Thing?
Gala: Radical self love. It’s my mission, my message, my raison d’être.
