72: The Future of Work



The way that we all work has drastically changed in the past year, and with so many of us now seeing the benefits of working from home and being more flexible it’s likely to continue changing. This week we’re discussing all the changes that could come next and why we think it’s such a great opportunity for all of us. From digital nomad visas to the 4 day working week and diversifying the work force, let us know your thoughts on the contact details below!

71: The Power Of Saying No



Saying no can be such a great way of setting boundaries and taking back control of a situation, but that doesn’t mean it’s easy. Whether it’s at work, in your social life or with you family, say no when you don’t want to or can’t do something can feel awkward and even intimidating. It’s a powerful statement though and like so many things, the more we do it in a thoughtful and constructive way the easier it becomes. Not sure where to start? We’ve got you covered.

70: The Filter Drop Campaign



The recent Filter Drop campaign and the changes made by the ASA to ban the use of filters when advertising beauty products has caused a shake up of the industry and sparked many conversations. While this is definitely a step in the right direction there’s still a long way to go. In this episode we’re discussing the effect of filters and overly edited images, how they change our mindset and normalise certain behaviours and ask whether we’re all victims of our own circumstance. We also talk about the new rules bought in by the ASA and ask whether rules that only effect the UK can have a big enough impact.

69: Learning From Your Mistakes



Making mistakes is part of life, we all do it, none of us are perfect. It’s not so much how you got yourself into a situation though but how you get yourself out and what you learn along the way. From the screw ups at work that have you hyperventilating in the toilets (we’ve all been there, it’s never as bad as it seems) to those that leave you in fits of laughter when you look back on them, in this episode we’re discussing making mistakes and how to learn from them.

68: The Mistreatment Of Women By The Media



In this episode we’re discussing how so often women are mistreated and misrepresented in the media. This isn’t a new phenomenon but the recent conversations surrounding Meghan Markle and Britney have bought it back in the spotlight and we felt it was too important to ignore. We also speak honestly about how we’ve been complicit in this narrative and how we can all start to make take responsibility and make a change.

Trigger/content warning: In this episode we discuss mental health, the impacts of bullying & harassment and suicide throughout.

67: Returning To Normality: Going At Your Own Pace



If you’re feeling a bit unsure about the idea of ‘normal’ life resuming then this episode is for you. This week we’re discussing why it’s totally fine to take the easing of restrictions at your own pace and are sharing some of the ways we’re going to approach things over the next few months. We don’t know about you but remembering how to even get dressed properly feels like a big ask right now, never mind a years worth of delayed birthday celebrations!
