Getting Our Sh*t Together

Ahhh 2020... a year filled with lots of working from home, Zoom calls, social distancing, fighting for toilet paper and constant walks around your neighbourhood. All thanks to one little culprit *cough* COVID-19.

In Michelle & Liza's last ep of the year, we bring you plenty of fun chats about all things Christmas shopping, Boxing Day sales and New Years' Resolutions! Need some last minute gift ideas? We've got you covered! Some Boxing Day sales tips? Not to worry, Liza comes in with some of her handy hints after working in retail for many years! Some laughs about our failed New Years' Resolutions? Yep, also in this ep!

Enjoy this one and let's say cya to a very memorable but shit 2020 👋🏼

Ahh travelling... Something that the majority of us haven't ben able to do since the beginning of this year - crazy, right?

In this episode, Michelle & Liza take a trip down memory lane and reminisce on some of the best and worst places we've travelled to around the globe.

Getting a visa? Check! Doing a Contiki Tour? Check! Travelling by yourself? Check! Getting caught in a French riot? Also, Check! So, Strap yourself in and get ready for your flight, this is going to be an interesting ride!

Now that things are slowly going back to a pre-covid norm, it's proving to be harder than expected for most people to adjust. Lots of us, including ourselves, have been feeling this weird cloud of uneasiness sitting above our heads.

This week, we explore this anxiety feeling a lot of us are experiencing and discuss some of our tips, tricks and coping mechanisms to overcome these feelings.

We also discuss an app that can pick up what cats are saying (haters will say it's fake) and meeting the Shameless girls!!!

Cat Translator App: MeowTalk Cat Translator - Beta

Nothing says having your shit together like an amazing dating life and going on dates that sweep you off your feet... but that's not what this episode is about!

First dates... we've all had them. A lot of the time they don't quite go the way we planned.

This week we delve into (laugh) at the stories that our friends have been kind enough to share and we even give a few stories of our own. So sit back, relax and tune in as we sip on our G&T's and discuss the juicy deets!

Ever looked on Instagram and thought ‘why do all these people look like they have their shit together and living their best life’? because we certainly have.

Welcome to EP 3 where we discuss all of our feels on social media and the highlight reels. This week we delve into the social media world and influencer culture since this is something that we are constantly keeping on top of. We chat about our thoughts on highlight reels, how reality TV shows such as the Bachelor/Bachelorette have contributed to the breeding of influencers, why we are so fascinated with constantly checking in on influencers and the free holidays and products we wish we would get.

We also give a shout out to some of our favourite Instagram personnel that we believe use their platforms for good and spread the love!

Michelle & Liza are back for EP 2 and it’s all about finding your way!

But what does that even mean? Well, we discuss the transition between study and work… because let’s face it… it’s a weird one, our struggles with finding a job (hands up if you hate all the hoops employers make you jump through, only to receive an automated rejection letter) and a little bit about our fave friend ‘imposter syndrome’.

We also chat about what it has been like starting our first full time jobs – especially in the midst of a pandemic… Michelle has never met anyone in her team! And, we discuss how no one really knows what they’re doing at this age (and if you do, we are jealous) and why it’s important to acknowledge that, given we are all living in the world of highlight reels on social media.

Hope you enjoy!

It's the beginning!

Okay, let's get down to business. Who are we? Why are we starting a podcast? What are we all about? What are our favourite ice cream flavours?? ... No seriously, we cover it all! Get to know us before we try Getting Our Sh*t Together!

We also talk about our COVID feels and how this year/pandemic has affected us. Spoiler: we haven't had our shit together for most of the year!

Can't wait for you to listen to our first ep!
