Reading the room is getting a sense of your surroundings. What is the mood? How are people feeling? and importantly how should your behaviour be adjusted? For example, lets say you just got some great news! You won an all expense paid vacation to your dream location over the weekend. You get to work on Monday bubbling with excitement, wanting to shout out to everyone that you won but no one is looking up. They are quietly working, or shuffling around the office, the mood is very somber. Do you shout out about your winnings, or do you quietly investigate to see what is going on? Listen to Doris as she shares an interesting experience that has her saying..."READ THE ROOM!"

On this episode, Doris sits down with Jennifer [@jeneeffah] to discuss unlearning aspects of everyday life that do not serve us in today's world. E.g. Why can’t we celebrate our successes without the fear of being perceived as conceited?…Why must women wait on somebody’s son? And why, pray tell, did we learn Shorthand in secondary school??? Listen to this episode to hear them discuss this and more over bottomless wine and loads of laughter.

Hey guys…Thanks For Asking is back and we are kicking off Series 2 with war stories from the dating battlefield as requested on our Instagram poll. I mean, modern dating is a minefield and we've all experienced some wild and crazy things. We try to put on the best possible version of ourselves when we go out on a date, we wear our nicest clothes, try to pick a great spot to meet up, and hope some kind of real connection is born. However, this does not always go according to plan and they make for hilarious stories. On this episode, I share some of mine and other absolutely bizzare ones. Enjoy…
