Social media is rife with #humblebrags, so why are women crap at talking themselves up in real life? Do you forget things easily? We can now blame "Google brain" for that. We talk paternity leave, dating at the gym, breakfast raves, mouthguards in bed, and who Taylor Swift should choose as her Australian #girlsquad representative.

Monique recommends the prison T-shirt program servingtime.org

Jamila recommends Nars Lipstick, it's bold, beautiful and long lasting. Mia always wears the Schiap colour.  It can be exxy though, so for the mid-range purchase try Sportgirl lipsticks. The Flirt one is a bright, vivid pink.

Mia recommends Master of None on Netflix

This podcast was brought to you by the Dove Self-Esteem Project. 

The project delivers self-esteem education to young people (primarily girls) aged 8-17 years through lessons in schools, workshops for youth groups, and online resources for parents. In Australia, they deliver the workshops via their valued partners Butterfly Foundation & Girl Guides Australia to make a positive impact on the lives of young people in our community by travelling to different schools within the area and conducting self esteem work-shops. Dove’s vision is of a world where beauty is a source of confidence, and not anxiety. So, Dove is on a mission to help the next generation of women develop a positive relationship with the way they look – helping them raise their self-esteem and realise their full potential.
