Episode 19: Self-Isolation Chronicles
Hello! How’ve you been? How are we feeling after what feels like a few months of isolation rather than weeks?
We’re back for your listening pleasure with our own self-isolation chronicles. This episode, we talk:
The best and worst things to come out of self-isolation
Call B.S. on the pressure to make the most of this time / set up a side hustle right now
Think ahead to what we’re looking forward to when this is all over.
The perfect companion for a WFH lunch. -
Episode 18: I’m not your superwoman
This week, after a WhatsApp-related rant, we move on to talk about self-care for superwoman. A term we’re not really fans of, but following the massive reaction to a quote we put up on our instagram (@the30thrive), we decided to make it our topic this week.
We talk:
Our telltale signs for when we need rest
Claiming that time without guilt
How we replenish and relax
A caveat before you listen: this episode was pre-recorded owing to Mother’s Day plans. Obviously, this was also before the developments this week with Coronavirus. We do hope you’ve had as good a week as is possible, and that the lack of the c-word, actually provides some light relief. Don’t mistake us not mentioning it as insensitive.
Enjoy the episode. -
Episode 17: Laser eye surgery update, Coronavirus and Working From Home
And....we’re back!
This week...well, it was inevitable that we’d have to talk about the Coronavirus, right? We talk COVID, loo rolls and working from home for the foreseeable. Annette’s also got an update on her laser eye surgery. Would she do it again?

Episode 15: Is Love Better Blind?
This week we had no choice but to spend a large portion of the episode discussing Love Is Blind. The hashtags and the memes got to us, and we had to get involved.
Join us for an extended chat about the show that has everyone talking with a wider conversation about dating in 2020.

Episode 14: I am not my hair
In this week’s episode we’re talking all things hair. We take a trip down hair memory lane and revisit some of our most memorable styles and hair disasters.
We also discuss the experiences and challenges we’ve dealt with in the workplace from both the employee and employer POV, and imagine what we’d do hair wise from a parent perspective if we had daughters in 2020.
