About

Hi, I am Mia, creator of Big Shocking and a firm believer that your lifestyle should reflect your passions. What started as a simple dream to share my love for home life, nail art, and all things beautifully organized has grown into a heartfelt space where I speak my truth and inspire others to do the same.

I am a Type A perfectionist by nature, obsessed with details, cozy aesthetics, and everything that makes life feel a little more put-together. From perfectly painted nails to Pinterest-worthy living spaces, I’ve always found joy in the little things and wanted a place to celebrate that.

Big Shocking was born in the quiet comfort of my bedroom. Fueled by late-night brainstorming sessions and endless cups of tea in our kitchen, I turned my laptop into a launchpad, pouring my energy into content that felt authentic, helpful, and full of intention. Every blog post has been a piece of my journey, built with care and created to help you design a lifestyle that’s both beautiful and practical.

This blog started as my escape. A way to dream out loud. A way to prove to myself that even the smallest spark of passion can lead to something real. Over time, it became much more than that. It became my voice, my community, and the reason I kept pushing forward.

Moving abroad to the UK once felt like a far-off fantasy. But this platform helped me take that leap. It became the bridge between who I was and who I knew I could be. Now I use Big Shocking to help others chase their version of that dream, one organized drawer, polished manicure, or inspired home corner at a time.

Thank you for being here. Whether you’re searching for home inspiration, self-care rituals, or just a little motivation to design the life you love, I’ve got you.
