Second Helpings en-us © 2024 Second Helpings Second Helpings isn’t just for people who avoid carbs and drink charcoal. But if you miss the taste of midnight pizza and want to start living your best life, welcome — you’re in the right place. Shortlisted for the Independent Podcast Awards 2025, Second Helpings is an honest, darkly funny conversation about eating disorder recovery, mental health, and the pop culture that shapes how we see ourselves. From Normal People to Taylor Swift, #girldinner to the latest wellness trends, your hosts unpack the culture and stories we love — and the stories we tell ourselves. One host is a clinical psychologist. The other is a writer who once skipped dessert because she thought it was a waste of calories. Together, they get real about recovery, body image, addiction, modern dating, and why “manifestation” still isn’t a substitute for therapy (sorry, TikTok). Expect unscripted conversations, sharp humour, and two hosts who bring fresh perspectives on life in your late twenties.

]]> Alice Florence Orr and Maria Wiik aliceflorenceorr@gmail.com Wuthering Heights: Literature's most destructive relationship? Wuthering Heights is often remembered as a great romance, but it’s really a story about emotional extremes — love that becomes obsession, grief that turns into anger, and pain that is passed from one generation to the next. The 2026 film starring Margot Robbie and Jacob Elordi is based on the classic novel by Emily Brontë and directed by Emerald Fennell. Like the book, it tells the story of the intense and destructive relationship between Heathcliff and Catherine Earnshaw. In this episode, Alice and Maria ask what happens when trauma, abandonment, and jealousy are never processed? Ever. And how do those feelings shape the way people treat the people they love?

In this episode, Alice and Maria discuss Sally Rooney’s Normal People and unpack why its portrayal of young love feels so intimate, unsettling, and painfully familiar. What makes Connell and Marianne’s relationship so compelling — and so damaging? And why do stories about first love so often blur the line between connection and self-erasure? In this episode, we discuss: Young love and toxic relationships, eating disorders and control as coping mechanisms As always, we approach these themes through a recovery lens — asking how stories like Normal People can both validate lived experiences and quietly reinforce harmful ideas about love, suffering, and worth. We reflect on what it means to grow beyond relationships that once felt essential, and how tenderness doesn’t have to come at the cost of selfhood.

]]> 3395 yes The Fate of Ophelia: Taylor Swift, tragic heroines, and the myth of romantic salvation In our Season 2 premiere, we unpack Taylor Swift’s “The Fate of Ophelia” and explore how the song reframes one of literature’s most famous tragedies. Why do we keep returning to the image of the doomed woman in love? And what does it mean when pop culture tells us — again and again — that romance is the cure for our deepest wounds? In this episode, we discuss: – Romantic love as a supposed saviour – Ophelia as the quintessential tragic heroine – How Swift’s new era reshapes melancholy, agency, and self-worth – The album’s broader themes of grounding and recovery – Allusions to Midnights and Swift’s ongoing narrative evolution – Substance abuse, self-destruction, and why vulnerability in art matters As always, we approach these themes through a recovery lens — looking at how storytelling can either reinforce old patterns or open up new ways of understanding ourselves.

Together, they’re tackling the most pressing social issues: wellness trends, “manifestation”, and why #girldinner gets such a bad rep.  In their real and unscripted conversations, they go deep into the process of recovery and speak to guests who bring new perspectives to issues like body image, addiction, careers and modern dating.
