    38: Hannah's Personal Dance With Anxious Thoughts

    Anxiety, what does it mean to you? Have you personally suffered from its crippling grip at times? Do you know someone who experiences it? Perhaps a friend, a parent, a sibling, a loved one. Does it show up when you least expect it, and how do you manage it? In this episode we do a deep dive into Hannah's lived experience with anxious thoughts,  including: when it began and how it looks and feels for her how she finally recognised what the feelings were Hannah reading a diary entry, sharing the real, raw and honest truths that she feels when anxious thoughts are heightened what she needs from others when feeling this way phrases that are super helpful the style of exercise that aids in minimising the feelings (and what exacerbates it!) how it affects our friendship Rach's experience with anxiety why teaching as a profession fit well in managing anxious thoughts for Hannah.   We mention Ready or Not Podcast in this episode, specifically: Big Highs, Big Lows, Big News EPISODE And, Claire Bowditch, and her incredible book Your Own Kind Of Girl about managing her demonising thoughts.

    37: SOLO | She said ‘I do’

    C'mon, admit it, who doesn't love a wedding? Yes the logistics can be alot, yes they can be expensive as the host AND as the guest, but who doesn't love LOVE! In this episode we keep the SOLO episode fun, alive and kicking with a journey back in time to Rach and John's wedding day on the 21st of April 2018.  We hear about: Rach & Han's hot minutes Rach's wedding being the best day of her life the amazing photographers the fun job Hannah was assigned in the setup of the wedding day snippets of Rach's vows and Hannah's speech how it felt to walk back into the reception surrounded by all of your loved ones the honeymoon. Wedding days are fun, they're alot of work, preparation and time, however, perhaps that's how they should be, as they are marking something pretty remarkable. Love SHOULD be celebrated and the time should be taken to remember such a special moment in a couples life when they commit to each other, forever.   Should you be planning a wedding and hunting for a photographer and videographer team (and married themselves), look no further than: Be Here Be Now Photographers (incredible humans!)   Finally, you know the drill Hotties, if you haven't already, follow, rate and review our show.
