***SPOILER ALERTS - Minimal spoilers in this episode
We apologise for the audio quality in this episode as we are on our training wheels and this episode just didn’t want to play well with us. Thank you for your understanding, things improve from here!
SHOW NOTES
In this episode we wanted to share how we read and discuss how reading can be wonderful and also maybe an addiction that impacts our lives in a detrimental way. We hope it helps you settle into how you love to enjoy your reading time no matter what that looks like. We are all different, with our own life circumstances and as long as you are reading we are cheering you on.
Hot topics we discuss
- Can we read too much?
- FOMO and comparison-itis in the reading world.
- How Carlie enjoys delayed gratification and has to read in small blocks of time or at night around her family and work life.
- How Majella devours books in large blocks of time as she knows she will re-read them over and over. Delayed gratification is a novel idea for her.
- Reading as escapism and when this is not healthy
- The physiological response we get from reading this genre.
- Our reading habits and routines right now
- How our reading habits can impact on socialising, relationships, sleep, work life.
- Reading is an accessible hobby for Carlie right now.
