In this episode we discuss our weeks and how things have been feeling a little bit heavier recently. Do you ever feel like you're walking into a brick wall sometimes? Well that’s how lockdown is making us feel at the moment.
We proceed to go on a bit of a rant. Be warned, we hold nothing back but we would like to put a little disclaimer out there that we have nothing but love & appreciation for the NHS and we are so lucky to have the health services that we do.
Georgia & Tash discuss all things health, with Georgia training in health coaching, this has sparked conversations on our experiences with doctors and hospitals. From IBS, Endo, collapsed lungs, being on the pill. To being diagnosed with HPV and feeling like you have no idea what is going on with your body.
We also chat about the pressures on women to be the responsible one when it comes to having protected sex and the lack of responsibility from men when it comes to wearing / carrying condoms. (Oh yes, we went there)
We go deep guys. But this is what the podcast is all about, it's about having open & honest conversations about our stories and letting you know that it's ok to speak up about how you think and feel. You know your body better than anyone else, so don’t be afraid to speak up, ask questions on what you are being prescribed or being told AND it's always worth getting a second opinion.
As always, we end the podcast on a lighter note, discussing Firefly Lane, podcasts we’ve been listening too, a new meditation we’ve both tried out this week and books we’ve been reading.
“Your brain is not designed to make you happy. That’s your job”
We would love to know your stories and experiences in healthcare and if you related to anything we spoke about, please feel free to drop us a message. We would love to hear from you and also know that we're not alone in this.
