    The Special | Episode 2 | Delve Deeper Into.. Privilege

    Privilege is a complex thing. 

    Those who have it often don't realise how much it makes life easier for them. Those who don't understand all too well how much the lack of that privilege affects their lives. 

    In this episode, we go a little deeper and unpack the complexities of knowing you have privilege and what you can do with it to help others.
    We'd love to hear from you!

    The Special | Episode 1 | Delve Deeper Into… Us! (Again)

    Welcome to The Special Series!
    We know, we know! You’ve gotten to know us before and we’re doing it again! Here’s the thing, we last did a ‘Delve Deeper On Us’ as our very first episode - a whole 4 years ago. A couple of things have changed since then - and we’d like to think we’ve grown a little too. 


    In this episode, we talk about our green flags, what would bring us knocking on each other’s door late at night; fun facts and tidbits for you to enjoy.


    Let us know what surprised you, what tracks and what you thought we’d say in the comments!

    The Special | BONUS | Delve Deeper Into.. KYE

    Earlier this year, we got to sit down with Zimbabwean-born artist, Kye and talk all things music and how spreading joy is at the core of her musical expression. We had a blast talking about her musical influences, going down nostalgic memory lane and speaking about representation matters.

    Get into our interview with Kye and let us know your thoughts.

    S05E08 | It's Layered | Delve Deeper Into.. Perfectionism! | Season Finale

    Perfectionism is defined as “refusal to accept any standard short of perfection.” In philosophy it is “a doctrine holding that perfection is attainable, especially the theory that human moral or spiritual perfection should be or has been attained.” | The Oxford Dictionary
    In our season finale, we are unpacking the complexities of perfectionism, its origins, the role society plays as well as our own struggle with perfectionism. 
    Do you grapple with perfectionism? How do you manage it?
