    First World Problems & Overwhelmed Brains

    Ever feel completely overwhelmed by things that really shouldn't be that overwhelming? This week, we're overthinking the first-world problems taking up a ridiculous amount of brain space, including why going on holiday somehow creates more admin than staying at home. As usual, that's where we start. Where the conversation ends up is another matter entirely. Are we overwhelmed, overthinking... or is this genuinely just how our brains work? 🔔 Enjoying She Gets It From Me?Follow the podcast so you don't miss the next episode. 🎧 Got something that made you think, "Surely it's not just me?"Or something from this week's episode you need to weigh in on?

    Supermarkets have finally pushed us over the edge

    Supermarkets have finally pushed us over the edge. This week we're overthinking the weekly food shop: self-checkouts, receipt-scanning exit gates, increasingly expensive carrier bags and the very serious question of why buying food now feels like an obstacle course where you're also somehow under suspicion. And, because we rarely manage to stick to the actual subject, we also end up discussing: An eight-year-old giving us some brutally honest feedback Ellie's encounter with a particularly well-guarded 60p carrier bag A minor IKEA theft involving an eight-year-old Our slightly pointless 9am trip to Clarkson's pub Growing up in an "ingredient household" The childhood snack situation that still feels mildly traumatic And the innocent phrase that got Layla into rather a lot of trouble at work So yes, ostensibly this is an episode about supermarkets. It doesn't entirely stay that way. It can't be just us? 👋 Join the conversation: Have supermarkets ruined the shopping experience, or are we just becoming increasingly intolerant?

    Has MAFS Completely Lost The Plot This Season?

    We can’t believe this is just us, but why does everyone on MAFS feel completely unhinged this season?This week, we’re back in our comfort zone and overthinking Married at First Sight. From instant red flags and forced attraction, to chaotic dinner parties, weird power moves and couples who clearly should never have been matched in the first place, we’re sharing all our opinions on this year’s cast. In this episode, we talk about whether attraction can actually grow if it is not there at the start, why some people seem to mistake peace for boredom, and whether reality TV deliberately matches people with emotional baggage just to create drama. We also get into the contestants we secretly love, the ones we absolutely do not trust, and the strange way some people seem more interested in airtime than actual connection. We also discuss toxic relationships, insecurity, projection, traditional values, whether certain cast members are being set up as villains on purpose, and why some of this season feels so intense that it almost seems scripted. Plus, we get into the messy spoilers, the behind-the-scenes rumours, and the contestants who make us change our minds every five minutes. Tune in if you’re watching MAFS and shouting at the TV, obsessing over who is genuine and who is performing, or wondering whether anyone on this show is actually ready for marriage. 👋 Join the conversation: Which couple are you rooting for, and who do you think should never have been matched?

    Why Can't We Manifest What We Want?

    We can’t believe this is just us, but why does it feel like we can manifest everything… except the good stuff? We’re overthinking manifestation, the pressure to “think positive”, and why it somehow feels easier to spiral into worst-case scenarios than attract anything we actually want. From trying to manifest dream houses and lottery wins, to accidentally manifesting bad days without even trying, we unpack where we might be going wrong. In this episode, we get honest about doubt creeping in mid-manifestation, the pressure to always be in the “right mindset”, and how exhausting it feels to constantly monitor your thoughts. We also talk about visualising your dream life only to immediately question how you’d afford it, whether manifesting is actually realistic when you’re busy and stressed, and why it sometimes feels like everyone else has cracked the code except you. Tune in if you’ve ever tried to manifest something and felt like you sabotaged it within seconds, questioned whether you’re “doing it right”, or wondered why manifesting the bad stuff seems so much easier than the good. 👋 Join the conversation: Do you believe in manifesting, or do you think it’s all a bit unrealistic?

    When did being online mean I owe you a reply? The pressure to always be available

    We can’t believe this is just us, but when did being online mean you owe people an instant reply?We’re overthinking the pressure to always be available and how messaging somehow turned into a 24/7 expectation. From the anxiety of leaving someone on read, to the silent judgement when you don’t reply straight away, we unpack why simply being “online” suddenly feels like you’re expected to respond.In this episode, we get honest about reply time guilt, the paranoia of seeing someone typing and then stopping, and why being online doesn’t actually mean you’re ready to have a conversation. We also talk about work chats, voice notes, missed calls that feel like emergencies but aren’t, and the weird hypocrisy of expecting quick replies while taking hours ourselves.Tune in if you’ve ever worried someone thinks you’re ignoring them, felt pressure to reply instantly just because you were online, or wondered when messaging stopped being “reply when you can” and started feeling like a live chat service.👋 Join the conversation: Do you feel pressure to reply straight away, or are you firmly in the “I’ll reply when I’m ready” camp?
