Losing Friends - Tough Talks #3

In the third episode of our miniseries ‘Tough Talks’ Thea + Claire discuss the most underrated heartbreak: friendship breakups and breakdowns. Join us for a sad girl (not mad girl) episode, in which we discuss the lack of space given in society to grieve the loss of friendships. We talk about accountability, self-awareness, and when it might be time to let a friendship go. We ask ourselves some tough questions: Imagine if we entered friendships in the same way that we do romantic relationships? When friends are the family you choose, how do you reconcile with it when they are no longer in your life? An enlightening episode that challenged us to confront our internal monologues and communicate with the people who we hold nearest to us. With a positive spin to a painful topic, we encourage our listeners to nourish their friendships, have gratitude, and live presently within platonic relationships. Tough Talks is a miniseries of the GMS podcast. Thea + Claire will be delving into the conversations which are hard to have. Coming to you cross-continentally, we can promise vulnerability and an air of pretending to know what we are talking about when we’re actually the people who need the advice. Our aim is to speak openly about topics many of us shy away from for fear of being wrong. Disclaimer: We want to reiterate that we are not professionals; take what we have to say with a grain of salt (especially the ‘our unsolicited advice that we should listen to ourselves’ section). We are two young women with certain lived experiences, but acknowledge that our experience does not account for that experienced by everyone. It is vitally important to us that we acknowledge our privilege in having the ability to speak about certain issues. As always, these are complex and nuanced issues that are multifaceted in every respect. If you are struggling, we encourage you to seek advice from a health professional. Episode notes: Love and Friendship Across the Lifespan, the importance of friendships for improving your quality of life, and your life expectancy: https://oxfordre.com/psychology/display/10.1093/acrefore/9780190236557.001.0001/acrefore-9780190236557-e-746Health benefits of friends: https://ro.co/health-guide/friends-and-longevity/https://www.menshealth.com/health/a26326488/lifelong-friends-help-you-live-longer/https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5937874/Danielle Jackson quote: https://www.self.com/story/should-i-break-up-with-my-friendThe book that has altered Claire’s brain chemistry: https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/32998876Make sure you follow GMS on instagram @getmestarted where you can get involved in the show!!

Quarter Life Crisis - Tough Talks #2

In the second episode of our miniseries ‘Tough Talks’ Thea + Claire are tackling one of the most pertinent issues of our generation: existential dread. Join us as we get vulnerable about the tail spin period of life that is your late 20’s. We examine the ‘quarter life crisis’ and the astrological concept of Saturn Return to highlight just how complicated your 20’s really is. How do we escape the grip of comparison when it is stealing our joy? What is passion and how do you find it? How do you know that you are, really, living for yourself? How do you stop yourself from becoming your own worst enemy? Join us as we stumble our way through these questions, sharing some all too personal anecdotes to try and make sense of it all. ‘Tough Talks’ is a miniseries of the GMS podcast. Thea + Claire will be delving into the conversations which are hard to have. Coming to you cross-continentally, we can promise vulnerability and an air of pretending to know what we’re talking about when we’re actually the people who need the advice.

Sex, Bodies, and White Feminism

Devni joins Thea to talk about the relationship between her feminist beliefs, personal experience as a WOC, and the overarching discourses of sex, gender, and race in society. How does our relationship with sex and bodies change in different spaces? What is a lived experience of navigating the intersections of sex, gender, race, and culture? How can we better show up for ourselves and one another in these complexities? Although this episode was recorded in mid 2022 Devni's insights are timeless and a valuable reflection for people of all genders to consider the intersectionality of these issues. Join us to reflect, learn, and grow in this new episode of GMS. Make sure you follow GMS on instagram @getmestarted where you can get involved in the show!!
