It's a new year and we're bringing you a new season with a new host! Today Mauricio is entertaining a very special guest – Vanessa Zoltan. Maybe you've head of her?

Vanessa is reflecting on what she wants for 2025 and is wondering whether she should take an art class this year. Art used to be a big part of her life and she misses it! But does she truly have the motivation to leave the house regularly, especially in the evening when she could be resting?

Not Sorry has launched its first new podcast since 2020! Let's Ask Taylor Swift is co-hosted by Vanessa and podcaster, writer and cultural critic: Daniel Schroeder. 

In each episode Daniel and Vanessa will focus on one song from Taylor's discography, asking themselves, each other, and you— the audience— what it is about Taylor's music that resonates so much with fans. In our first season, every episode will look at the lead single from one of Taylor’s albums.

We're sharing with you our first episode on Tim McGraw, but we've also just released our second episode on Love Story in the Let's Ask Taylor Swift feed. If you enjoyed this episode, go subscribe!

Julia has three toddlers at home. Her first child stop breastfeeding recently and it was a gradual process of feeling out when he was ready. But with her younger twins, breastfeeding has been harder – it's been making her sick. Should she stop breastfeeding them now to save herself from future illness? Or is it important to extend the same opportunity to her younger kids that her first child had?

This week on Should I Quit? Vanessa and Julia explore how much of yourself you should give to parenting.

If you'd like to attend one of the pilgrimages Julia is staffing next year, you can join her reading:

• Persuasion in Dorset in April
• Remains of the Day in the Cotswolds in July
• And Upstream in Montana in August
