EDITOR'S NOTE
Welcome to the
special issue of
BBYB - Lifestyle!
Your guide to living smarter, staying connected
and finding inspiration in everyday life.
Today we celebrate the special issue of BBYB-Lifestyle, here to help you navigate life with confidence
and clarity. Inside you’ll find everything from sustainable living to financial wellbeing, along with our
bite-sized roundup of local happenings, what’s trending, and stories that resonate.
This issue is all about the power of well-informed decisions. In today’s world of so many choices, a bit of
knowledge goes a long way whether it’s avoiding burnout, protecting yourself from scams, or deciding
to take that big leap and leave our comfort zone. We also look into how to live more sustainably, like
getting creative with last night’s leftovers and topping up twice a month to save on electricity and
water bills. We’re talking about small changes but big impact!
At its heart, BBYB-Lifestyle is here not just to inform but also to inspire. We talked to local creatives
who turn passion into side hustles, and stylish youth who blend traditional and streetwear as a form
of self-expression. Who would’ve thought a cropped kebaya over wide-leg slacks would look so
effortlessly good?
No lifestyle guide would be complete without a focus on well-being. In this issue, we talk about mental
health, a topic that many of us still tip-toe around but one that deserves just as much attention as
physical health. For those who are just starting their fitness journey, we’ve got some tips on how to
find the right balance of cardio & strength training so you look good both inside and out.
With 2026 already dawned, we wish our readers the best for the year ahead. We thank you from the
bottom of our hearts for picking up this special issue.
Here’s to making choices that lead to a healthier, happier, and more fulfilled life.
