‘Maybe you’re not actually trying’. It’s a Substack post that stopped us in our tracks this week, and it’s reframed everything we thought we knew about energy and effort. Mia has just one question that can determine your personality type. Also, can we be saved from 'brain rot'? There are a handful of ways to ‘unrot your brain’ and Jessie is itching to put them to the test. And our recommendations, including a book that is sure to lift you out of a reading slump, a sparkly newsletter to feed your soul, and some brilliant Aussie fiction which Holly loved. Plus, we get a little teary in the studio as Mia shares some personal news. Support independent women's media Recommendations Mia wants you to read Glimmers by Lucy Ormonde Jessie wants you to read Don't Let Him In by Lisa Jewell and Torn by Nicole Madigan.
