Welcome to The 25 Reset, a column for anyone who’s recently realised that the life they’ve been working towards may not actually be the life they want.

Hi, I’m Niamh. And, I’ll admit it; turns out everyone was right. The big epiphany, the existential unravelling, the everything falling into place... it really does happen at 25.

For the first time in what feels like forever, I finally feel like I know who I am. I know what I want. I know what my purpose is. But - and here’s the twist - it’s not remotely what I thought it would be.

This is my little corner of the internet where I’m holding myself accountable, hoping that by putting it all out there, I might actually start making the changes I keep promising myself I will. That newfound clarity I was so desperate for at 25? It's less of a neatly tied-up, perfect answer, and more of a big, messy ‘Hmm, well this is interesting’. But that’s life, right?

So, who am I?

Well, I’ve been creating on the internet since I was 12, hopping between platforms, diving into fandoms, blogging, and making videos. I love creating, but recently, I’ve almost forgotten how to. I’m obsessed with pop culture and documenting every odd little thing that makes life feel like a film.

I work in TV, the goal I’d spent years chasing. But guess what? I’ve realised that it doesn’t define me. It’s a part of me, sure, but there’s a whole world of life I want to explore beyond my career.

This is my coffee date with myself, a space where I can hit reset, reflect, and hopefully inspire a few of you who might be feeling the same. Here’s to turning 25, embracing the mess, and figuring it all out one awkward step at a time.
