#025 Riding solo; the good, the bad, the reluctant

This episode is all about the things that become trickier when you are on your own. From working in a cafe, to travelling on a train and feeling safer. And being poorly! We touch on the sensitive subject of being British and offering and accepting help and how generally we are not great at either. Who do you allow yourself to be vulnerable with? And what about the beach dilemma?!?! Let’s all moonwalk into the sea...

Is life easier when you have someone by your side? We also look at the perks of being on your own from snatching a hot theatre ticket to...well that’s all we came up with this time #keepinitreal

Verity also touches on being solo in a different country (India) whilst Charelle discusses her uni town that turned the street lamps off after midnight!

We admit how there are moments in life where it is just useful to have someone there and how we need to get better at asking for and accepting support!

Apologies for some poor sound issues during this episode, we had a fair few tech issues on this particular recording!
