Cosy season = cosy activities = reading and listening more. Here’s our favourite Winter picks (so far!)
Burnout: The secret to solving the stress cycle - by Emily Nagoski
The perfect read at the end of a busy year. If you’re looking for a sign to navigate your way through your to do list, this is the book to help reframe the value of your time, your need for true rest and how to take the best care of yourself. Let’s face it, the to do list isn’t going anywhere fast, but, your perspective and systems surrounding those pressures matter.
What a Way to Go by Bella Mackie
Such a brilliantly indulgent read that was equal parts hilarious and cleverly constructed. A murder mystery but not as you might expect! Gift this to your best mate, or yourself for a curl-up-and-giggle of a read.
Manifest and Dive Deeper by Roxie Nafousi
Revisited this time every single year since they landed on our bedside tables. These two deeply instructive and insightful pieces of work provide the framework for applying the concept of Manifesting (feeling and embodying your desires into real-life attainment) in a digestible, non ‘woo’ way that feels approachable, inspiring and exciting to imagine what can be acheived in the new year.
How to Fail with Elizabeth Day
A new addition to our podcast rotation, and already a firm favourite. This is a podcast perfect for the commute to get an insight into all walks of life and their failures, and crucially, how that led to their version of success. A new exciting guest each week plucked from all industries makes this intriguing pod a must listen.
Table Manners with Jessie and Lennie Ware
A concept for a podcast that really makes sense, having guests over for dinner and offering a home-cooked feast whilst they chat all things life experience and working accolades. You can *hear* how relaxed each guest is in the company of lovely Jessie and Lennie, mother and daughter who always wow their guests with their menu. It makes us want to get in the kitchen and cook!
A Really Good Cry with Radhi Devlukia
Sometimes you need - you guessed it - a really good cry. Radhi is such a relatable host whose solo episodes range from sleep hygiene, female health to Ayurveda explained, friendship advice and guests in the mix, make this a tonic for the soul.
