The Blade Behind It All

Well, I’m Niamh, the Tyrone blade behind Parful Stuff.

I get asked a lot, “how did this all come about?”

And to be honest, it’s quite simple: I love creating things, and I wanted to help normalise the way we talk (or don’t talk) about mental health. Bung them two together… and Parful Stuff was born.

I genuinely believe every one of us has our struggles. Life can hit you out of nowhere, and a lot of the time we just put the head down and keep going, hoping it’ll sort itself out.

But there is no shame in struggling. There is no shame in asking for help.
And there is definitely no shame in not having a baldy notion what you’re doing.

Now, I’m not a doctor or a therapist. I’m just a thirty-something trying to figure life out like everyone else. I’ve my own struggles; grief, feeling lost, thinking I’m the only one who hasn’t got it together.

But the older I get, the more I realise…

👉 a lot of us feel like that
👉 we just don’t say it out loud

And that’s where all this comes from.

I’m honestly so proud of how Parful Stuff has grown, and even more grateful for the people it’s helped along the way.

So thank you, genuinely, for being here 💚
