disciplined vs disordered | ep.21

Sun, 13 Apr 2025 16:00:00 -0000

Is it really ‘discipline’ or is it just disordered? Let’s unpack the blurry lines between healthy habits and harmful obsessions… wellness culture's obsession with rigid routines, ‘clean eating’ and 5AM wake-ups are often disguised as self-improvement, but are sometimes more like self-punishment.

In this episode, we share our tips for distinguishing between genuinely nourishing practices and those unwelcome disordered behaviours hidden as "dedication." See you in season two!

the summer scaries | ep. 20

Sun, 06 Apr 2025 16:00:00 -0000

The summer paradox makes us feel like we're never doing summer "correctly" - we're not relaxing enough or not making enough memories. The pressure to have a perfect summer often prevents us from actually enjoying summer on our own terms.

There's pressure to maximise every moment with exciting activities and adventures, creating anxiety about "wasting" summer days, while also feeling exhausted by constant socialising and activity planning.

With summer around the corner, it's time we tackle the harmful concept of 'the summer body' and give practical advice on coping with summer expectations.

i'm sorry. | ep.14

Sun, 16 Feb 2025 17:00:00 -0000

In this episode, we dive into the thought process behind chronic over-apologising and why so many of us reflexively say "sorry" for things that don't warrant an apology at all.

We'll explore how this habit often stems from people-pleasing tendencies, and internalised feelings of taking up too much space in the world. Ro and Jaycie unpack the difference between genuine apologies and the automatic "sorry" that infiltrates our daily conversations.

Maybe you don't need to apologise for your existence...

Do you ever lie awake, mind spinning, over-analysing every conversation and every interaction you’ve had that day? Us too!

In this episode we unravel the inner workings of our brains, and try to understand why we feel like we feel, care and worry more than others. Is this constant deep feeling and overthinking weighing us down... or making our lives richer?

Maybe it's both - the same sensitivity that keeps us up at night also lets us experience joy, notice the beauty that others miss, and understand people on a deeper level. Yes, sometimes it's exhausting, but would we really want to feel any less? Let’s find out…

when self care feels hard... | ep.10

Sun, 19 Jan 2025 17:00:00 -0000

We both know that self-care can feel impossible sometimes... but here's the thing - caring for ourselves shouldn't feel like another source of stress.

Self-care has been twisted into this exhausting checklist: drink more water, exercise daily, follow a 12-step skincare routine, meditate, the list goes on...

On some days, basic self-care like taking a shower feels like climbing a mountain. And that's okay.

Self-care looks different for everyone. The most important thing is learning to listen to yourself. What helps you recharge? What brings you peace or joy?

Your self-care journey is yours alone. There's no checklist to complete, no right or wrong way to do it. The only thing that matters is whether it genuinely helps you feel better, more whole, more like yourself. Let's talk about it!

glowing up is a SCAM | ep. 9

Mon, 13 Jan 2025 09:34:34 -0000

‘Glowing up' is everywhere on social media, promising that if we just ‘try hard enough’ and change every part of ourselves, then we can be worthy of love and acceptance. False.

In this episode, we challenge the toxic pressure to constantly improve our appearance and discuss why society’s idea of ‘beauty’ is flawed.

Through sharing our personal experiences, we examine why the relentless push for ‘self improvement' can damage our mental health and self-worth. Plus, we dive into how companies are actually capitalising on our insecurities, while selling us solutions to problems they helped create in the first place.

Glowing up is a scam, and this episode will leave you accepting yourself as you are, right now, because every version of you is enough.
