Redundancy (with Hanna Andersen, founder of As We Are)

1h 5m · Freaking the F Out · 17 Mar 01:00

It's a big topic this week and a pretty timely one, with current redundancy rates in the UK shooting up past the rates from the last financial crisis and predicted to keep on rising in 2021.  Both of us pod-wives have experience of being made redundant, so we are talking about all the emotions we felt going through it.  Later we are joined by Hanna Andersen founder of As We Are in our brand new ASK THE EXPERT section.  She answers all of your questions and gives us heaps of resources to take a look at if you're being made redundant yourself.  

TW: We do speak briefly about Sarah Everard and the topic of women's safety at the start of the episode because the news has affected all of us so deeply these last few weeks.

Travel with Holly Rubenstein

Travel - in AND out of covid is our topic for today.  For obvious reasons, the travel industry has been hugely impacted by the lockdown restrictions around the world.  Joining us this week is the entertainment and travel journalist Holly Rubenstein who hosts the UK's #1 travel podcast The Travel Diaries (which we would highly recommend for some healthy wanderlust).  In the episode we allow ourselves to dream a little about the travels we have loved and where we can't wait to go back to, as well as digging into what the restrictions on travel have been and what they're likely to be going forwards. We also ponder what our future travel anxieties might be and whether our behaviours around going on holiday and travelling for business may have changed for good...

Freaking the F Out is a podcast where Kelsey Bennett and Maddy Scott examine the inner workings of their anxious minds.  Covering everything from the minute to the very big and life changing, they’re not mental health professionals but they do happen to have some experience in the field.

Charity with Fundraising Expert Rob Woods

The pandemic has hit charities HARD. We dig into why donating & fundraising are proving tricky (even before COVID) and how charities are doing brilliant things to pivot in these uncertain times. ⁠ ⁠ We feel good about being involved but also we hate shaking our bucket and asking for people's attention and ...money!  And it can feel very vulnerable sharing such personal stories. ⁠ ⁠ We speak to Rob Woods, Fundraising expert and Podcast Host of Fundraising Bright Spots to understand how charities themselves work and how they are adapting in the pandemic.

Trolling with The Circle's Alex Hobern

The internet is a pretty wonderful thing, but with approximately 3.7 billion people having access to it...at times it's going to get...a bit nasty.  This week we are talking about 'trolling' and we are joined by the winner of 'The Circle' Series 1: Alex Hobern.  More specifically, we talk about:

- What it is

- Our personal experiences of it

- Who gets trolled and why people troll

- The concept of anonymity...and some celebrity trolls

- What it can do to your mental health, what social media is doing about it and what you can do about it too
