    A Movie, a Full Moon & a Fox in My Yard

    This week on LIV(ing), we're watching Love of Your Life, getting excited for Love Island, trying to make life a little more whimsical, and thinking about apologies, accountability, and the people we meet at particular moments in our lives. The ones who get to know a version of us that might not exist in quite the same way again, but who we might always carry with us. Plus, online shopping, hidden photo folders, washing machine victories, men and their luxury objects, and why it's good to stop taking everything so seriously. A little bit of everything, really.

    Blah Blah, Self-Deprecating, Blah Blah

    This week, we're bringing down the severity. Consider this episode brought to you by me, a silly goofy mood, and whatever it is I'm doing this week and at the ripe age of 26. We're talking financial humiliation, being deemed an unattractive candidate for lending (personally offensive), six throw cushions and three years of being single, and spending fifteen minutes deciding how to punctuate a birthday text. Somewhere between the self-deprecation and the complete lack of financial literacy, talking about having a perfectly lovely life and still finding ways to make it unnecessarily complicated. A little on old habits, making different decisions, and the occasional inconvenience of personal growth. Nothing particularly groundbreaking. Just a chat, a few questionable anecdotes.

    Dating, Being Single & Other Things I'm Unqualified For

    Turns out, being single and knowing how to live for yourself are two very different things. Can you build a life you absolutely adore while still wanting to share it with somebody? This week, we're talking about life after long-term relationships, navigating dating, learning to live alone and the rather confronting realisation that being independent doesn't necessarily mean you've stopped waiting for someone else to choose you. From rebuilding my mental health and learning to trust my intuition to creating a home I genuinely love, we're unpacking what it means to find yourself outside a relationship, without pretending you don't still want love. Elsewhere, we've got some observations about Hinge, men and cereal, Anne Hathaway's understanding of the internet, and the Karen Read documentary. Plus, Sabrina Carpenter, Olivia Dean, Gracie Abrams and an increasingly extensive This Girl Is Going to Be Okay playlist. We're also revisiting last week's conversation about The Vilification of Noticing, discussing women, the AFL and institutional accountability. Content advisory: This episode includes personal discussion of mental health, depression, mania and suicidal thoughts in the final Seriously Personal segment. If you need support in Australia, Lifeline is available 24/7 on 13 11 14 or at lifeline.org.au.

    The Vilification of Noticing

    A STUNNING week! I went to Sydney, spent too much money, ate too well and returned home with plenty to discuss, arguably the entire purpose of leaving the house. We’re catching up on what I’ve been watching, listening to and reading, and what’s taken over my feed. OH! And we’re making a playlist: This Girl Is Going to Be Okay. Then, a conversation about violence against women, the way we talk about it, and what happens when awareness becomes part of a much bigger cultural conversation. Who gets heard, what gets noticed, and whether we’ve become better at recognising the things we once looked past. And for the Seriously Personal: when did noticing become embarrassing? When did remembering the tiny details, reading into a change in someone’s tone, or admitting that you care become something women are supposed to be embarrassed by? We’re talking performing disinterest, intuition versus overthinking, the vilification of the Crazy Woman and the strange pressure to prove how little we care. Because maybe the problem isn’t that women notice too much. Welcome to LIV(ing).

    We Used to Call Them Mistakes

    The week that was! A quick chat about The Love Hypothesis, what I can't stop watching on my feed, and this week's Seriously Personal: unpacking The Drama, starring Robert Pattinson and Zendaya, and my relationship with mistakes, forgiveness, grace and, let’s be honest, men.
