Muddling Through episodes

  • Muddling Through The Contraceptive Pill

    Hellooo everyone, 

    Today we are Muddling Through the contraceptive pill. 

    In this episode we discuss the experiences we, and some of our friends have had with the pill and the changes it has made to the way we feel mentally, physically and emotionally. We also discuss the results of the poll that many you kindly voted in. The contraceptive pill can be an amazing thing for many women, and we are so grateful for it, but it can also cause issues for women too and we feel like these should be highlighted and discussed through people's stories so that women can understand some of the trade offs the may be making and have the knowledge to make educated decisions about their health. 

    Please remember, if you are feeling like you are having adverse side effects, there are always other options to explore and consider!

  • Muddling Through Sexual Harassment

    Oh heyyyy there, welcome back to another season of Muddling Through!

    In our first episode back we Muddle Through Sexual Harassment. We share some of our own experiences with sexual harassment and also discuss the results from our Instagram poll which sadly has provided an all too predictable set of results.  

    By having this conversation we hope to give some of you the confidence and space to speak about your experiences and know that whatever has happened, you are not and will not be alone.   We are always stronger together <3 

    P.S. As always, our Instagram DM’s are always open, and we will also post the details of organisations which can provide support to those who have been subjected to sexual harassment.
