How to Know a Friend Isn't a Friend AnymorePlus Irish Beauty Brands Worth Switching To & Our Beauty-Maxing Eye-Roll Aug 20, 2026 39:41 This week we're all deep in event prep. Sunday's crept up on us and we're feeling it. We talk Irish beauty brands we can't stop raving about (RIP to every international brand that used to have our loyalty), then get into the real stuff: green flags and red flags in friendship, why some friendships just need to end, and the one physical sign, a literal knot in your stomach, that tells you before yo
Success Is Not Having a Knot in Your Tummy
Success Is Not Having a Knot in Your Tummy Aug 13, 2026 46:28 This week we're talking about ambition and how it changes as we get older. From chasing the next promotion, the house, the babies, to realising success might just be waking up without a knot in your tummy.

Healing Isn't Running Through a Field in a White Dress Jul 23, 2026 47:41 This week it's all about social media, the good, the bad, and the completely ridiculous. Alvagh takes aim at the "spirituality in a sentence" crowd and the men queuing up to tell women how to heal.

And Sinéad gets honest about overconsumption, the pressure to explain her o
