  2. Resolutions but Regulated 🧘🏼 ♀️

    Resolutions but Regulated 🧘🏼 ♀️

    The year doesn’t start in January - and neither should you. TLDR the Gregorian calendar’s start date is arbitrary, disconnected from nature, and primarily a construct of historical and commercial influence etc etc. So in lieu of that, let’s find a New Year that works for us - here are just some you can choose from: - Astrological New Year: Astrologically, the new year begins when the Sun enters Aries, which occurs around the Spring Equinox. - Personal New Year: Many feel their personal cycle restarts on their birthday, which is seen as a more meaningful, individualised time to set new goals and reflect on the past year. - Lunar New Year: Celebrated by many cultures (Chinese, Vietnamese, Korean) based on a lunisolar calendar, that we celebrated just last week on Feb 17. What We’re Chatting About - Why Shannon is NOT a New Year’s Resolution girl - Making intentions from alignment vs. pressure - Slutty little glasses (IYKYK) - The psychological spiral of online shopping cart purgatory It wouldn’t be a new year without a vision board!! What’s on yours? Send us pics & Tag us. We round it out with advice to our younger selves on new years. Georgia - Only making resolutions that come from places of  love, joy, compassion Shannon - Be more patient with myself 💌 Subscribe to https://getittogetherpod.substack.com/ to be the first to know when new eps drop 💜 Share this episode with someone who needs to hear it💬 Slide into our DMs @https://www.instagram.com/getittogether_pod/ ♪ stream cafe - boba date: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kj1MDJXJ7-I This is a public episode.

    Tenacity: You've Got You

    Ever have one of those weeks where everything feels a bit too much? Same here. We unpack the idea of tenacity—not just the “push through no matter what” version, but the gentler, more grounded kind that keeps us anchored when everything around us is shifting. 💭 In This Episode - Redefining tenacity: why strength isn’t always about pushing harder - Georgia’s story of moving overseas during the pandemic — and learning to say yes to small, scary things - Shannon’s high school rejection story, and how it became a quiet turning point toward purpose - The power of humour and lightness when life gets heavy - Simple, practical ways to find your anchor and build inner strength 🌿 Key Takeaways ✨ Patience is strength. Everything meaningful takes time. ✨ Rest is not quitting. Pausing helps you come back clearer. ✨ Connection builds resilience. Let others help—you don’t have to do it all alone. ✨ Do the basics well. The boring, grounding habits are what keep you steady. ⚓ Reflection Prompt How are you your own anchor? What helps you? And how have you moved yourself through the ups and downs of life. Let’s keep the convo going: 💌 Subscribe to https://getittogetherpod.substack.com/ to be the first to know when new eps drop 💬 DM us how you anchor yourself when the waves get rough - we love hearing from you 💜 Share this episode with someone who needs to hear it ♪ stream cafe - boba date link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kj1MDJXJ7-I This is a public episode.

  5. Navigating Social Media and Body Image

    Navigating Social Media and Body Image

    Our latest social media deep dives Georgia: Dog food supplements - senior dog owners IYKYK Ireland’s National Ploughing Championships Shannon: Nina Dobrev’s breakup with her snowboarder boyfriend Homewares Online courses Social Media and Self-Perception: A Love-Hate Thing Unfortunately IG has more than just Reels about farm fairs and dog supplements—we chatted about how a lot of women’s health/ fitspo content can be quite toxic. It’s not just annoying—it’s harmful. We’ve seen a huge spike in eating disorders in the last few years, especially since COVID lockdowns. Things like “What I Eat in a Day” videos or the marketing of products like detox teas (ugh) can really mess with your head, especially if you’re already feeling vulnerable. Our Brains Weren’t Built for This Something we’ve been learning (and reminding ourselves constantly) is that our brains literally weren’t designed for this. Human brains evolved in a totally different world—one without endless scrolling, notifications, or constant access to curated highlight reels. Our ancestors had to pay attention to their immediate environment for survival. Now? We’re overloaded with updates, opinions, drama, and comparisons—most of which have nothing to do with our real lives. It’s no wonder we feel exhausted and anxious after just ten minutes of scrolling. This constant bombardment leads to cognitive fatigue, emotional burnout, and sometimes that feeling of just being totally “off” without knowing why. Social Media Addiction Is a Real Thing Let’s talk dopamine. Every time you refresh your feed or get a notification, your brain gets a little hit—a reward that keeps you coming back for more. But like a pokie machine, it’s unpredictable. Sometimes you get a rush of likes and comments, and sometimes...crickets. That inconsistency is exactly what makes it so addictive. I (Georgia) have noticed that I sometimes use social media as a coping mechanism—when I’m overwhelmed or stressed, I scroll to numb out. But honestly? I always feel worse after. It’s like eating junk food when you’re sad—it gives you a temporary distraction but doesn’t actually fix anything. So What Can We Actually Do About It? We’re not here to tell you to delete all your apps and live in the woods (though, tempting). But there are a few small things we both try to do to keep social media in check: Delay the scroll: Try to be phone free for the first 30 mins after waking up. Clean up your feed: If you’re scrolling and a post comes up that doesn’t make you feel good - click that unsubscribe button - or select “show me less content like this” Use the screen time setting on your phone Need to focus? Use Do Not Disturb - or just put your phone in another room Digital detoxes: I’ve taken full-on breaks before, and honestly? I feel so much better for it - try deleting your socials for a few days and see how you feel.
