In this episode we talk candidly about some of the big and small changes that we have willingly and unwillingly made to our daily life to make our days feel sane, great and fun rather than OK, along with a few products and habits we’ve been road testing to see if they make any difference.

As we get older the pressures of life change and the things we used to prioritise move down the list.  In this episode we talk honestly about what we’re more than happy to accept and move to the top of the pile, and what are our absolute non-negotiables, and why we’re embracing being perfectly imperfect.

Now this episode was FUN!  We chat about the Gen Z trends that apparently as Gen X-ers we should be adopting, the very real struggle of finding clothes to wear when you’re having an identity crisis, and why trainers really are the new holy grail.  This was the episode where we could have chatted for hours!

In this episode we talk about the very real changes that midlife brings to our appearance and how one day we looked in the mirror and wondered who on earth was looking back at us!  We discuss the judgement and promises that society makes to us, along with any tweakments we’ve considered or had done.

We really enjoyed recording this episode as it’s something we chat about time and time again – and that is around having to reinvent yourself.  We talk honestly about the harsh reality of giving up your career, the terrifying journey to becoming self-employed and the how we all fall foul occasionally to the dreaded imposter syndrome.

In today’s episode, we are talking about how friendships have changed over the years and how this had made us feel.  We reminisce about some of the super fun times we’ve had over the years, discuss what friendship means to us now, and have a very candid confession about the phrase ‘we must catch up’.

To kick things off, our first episode really introduces what Just the Tonic is all about as we share a little bit about ourselves and give a sneaky peak into some of the things we’ll be covering in later conversations.  

 What we really hope is that anyone who listens, feels as though they’ve had a really good catch up with their friends, and had those honest chats that cover a multitude of things that can have you laughing one minute and empathising the next.  Think of it as a virtual hangout with mates, where our shared stories and anecdotes will hopefully be ‘just the tonic’ to raise a smile and give you a boost.
