Welcome back to MAE! Today we chat about the agony of swimsuit shopping, the type of domesticity we can get on board with and feeling triggered by certain homesteading models. We also have our first edition of Auntie MAE featuring a dilemma about extended family dynamics and being the default organiser. Super juicy.

Just like the old school advice columns of magazines gone by, we want to invite YOU to write to us about any dilemmas, issues or questions you have and we'll offer our best advice or thoughts on some of those submissions every week! So get in touch with us on [email protected]!
