- What's your love language?
Love languages is a topic I for one am very intrigued by! In this episode I take the infamous love languages test to rank the 5 love languages; physical touch, acts of service, quality time, words of affirmation and gift-giving. I then breakdown what this means for me in my life. I recommend taking the quiz yourself!

42 min - Friendships in your 20s.
Friendship is a BIG topic that I have touched on before but have been thinking about a lot recently and wanted to dive into further on the podcast. We talk all things making friends, maintaining friendships, friendship advice and those horrible friendship breakups... lots of love, Niamh xxx
45 min - Breaking down wellness and how to achieve balance between the different areas in your life.
At the start of 2023, one of my favourite podcasts Already Friends (I recommend!) published their '8 Dimensions of Wellness' series. I was inspired by the Already Friends podcast to reflect on the different areas of my life that add up to my overall wellness. My intellectual, financial, physical, social, emotional, environmental, occupational and spiritual wellness. I discuss how I divide my time to make sure I prioritise each area and achieve an overall balance in my life.

33 min - 36 questions to fall in love (or just get to know someone better).
In this episode I go through the popular '36 questions to fall in love'... I mean I don't want to make you all fall in love with me, but I thought it would be fun to go through these deep questions and you can get to know me better and think about your own answers as well as ask your friends or a partner some of these questions. Here's to being honest and open even when it's scary! Lots of love ;) Niamh xxx

42 min - Small moments of casual magic.
As a natural pessimist, it is important for me to look for the small moments in life which spark joy. This can be anything from a sunset to a good book, and I suggest many more examples in this episode. Let's change our mindset and look for positivity and magic in the everyday and romanticise an ordinary life.

43 min - Am I making the most of my 20s?
I've been thinking a lot about being in my 20s and how it makes me feel. The pressures and stereotypes can weigh you down but I want to provide you with some reassurance that it's all normal. You're not alone! Comparison is the thief of joy but it doesn't have to win.
