Navigating Adulthood – One Obsessive Thought at a Time
Listening to podcasts has been a key part of my working from home day for quite a while now, and I’ll be honest, I’m worried how I’ll be able to keep up the momentum when I start my new job. In recent months though, I’ve realised that they’ve not just become part of my WFH… Continue reading Another Four Podcasts You Should Listen To Right Now
I always try and write a themed post around International Women’s Day, but for some reason, I struggled this year to come up with an idea. Thankfully, my brain saved the day at the last minute (for once) and I decided to write a post on my favourite female comedians. If you’ve been with my… Continue reading My Favourite Funny Women | The Best Female Comedians You Should Check Out This International Women’s Day
Last year, I wrote about a selection of podcasts I’d gotten into, including Shagged Married Annoyed with Chris and Rosie Ramsey, and Help I Sexted My Boss with Jordan North and William Hanson.

Given the current situation (the… Continue reading The Best Podcasts to Listen To Right Now: My Four Top Picks

Given that I virtually do nothing else other than binge watch Netflix, I thought I’d… Continue reading Ten of the Most Badass Female Characters in TV | International Women’s Day 2020
My own mental health condition means that I tend to take a liking towards films and TV shows that feature mental health themes. Obviously they’re not the only things I watch, but as an ex-psychology student, my curiosity gets the better of me. I’m not sure specifically what the appeal is, but I find the… Continue reading My Favourite Mental Health Portrayals in TV and Film
One thing that my husband and I are known for is our love for stand up comedy. Since 2010, birthday and Christmas gifts have often been in the form of comedy tickets, and it’s meant over the years we’ve seen some of our favourite comedians, including Russell Howard, Lee Evans, and Jimmy Carr.

I’ve mentioned before that my husband and I are discovering new podcasts for our commute to work. A particular favourite of ours has been Off Menu with Ed Gamble and James Acaster, which I wrote a themed post on a while back. After the series ended, we became quite keen on finding something else to… Continue reading My Teenage Mixtape
