Hey hey!!! A new episode of You Look Tired is finally here!

Each episode we discuss a piece of writing that explores the exhausting parts of life. In this episode, Annabel shares a reflection she wrote post-lockdown. Then we talk about the ways fight or flight reactions have manifested in our everyday lives, the silver linings of lockdown and just how damn moody we've been throughout this challenging year.

We also workshop how to handle life after lockdown, and whether we're feeling hopeful about the future...

Helllooooooo! A new ep of You Look Tired is here!

Every fortnight we discuss a piece of writing that explores the exhausting parts of life. In this episode, Karys shares a personal essay about how the strange times we're living through have affected her views on beauty. We then talk about using makeup and clothes to feel empowered, while also embracing our natural selves, and in both cases, trying to achieve a level of self-love.

We also turn to Ru Paul for wisdom on the topic and interrogate why we care so much about what other people think of our appearance.

A new episode of You Look Tired is here!

Each week we discuss a piece of writing that explores the exhausting parts of life. In this episode, Annabel shares some reflections she had about the teenage experience after reading a young adult novel. Then we talk about the kind of teenagers we were, offer some advice to our adolescent selves (not that we'd listen...), and consider our 'arrested development' because we both work in a high school.

We also admit some embarrassing examples of our own teen angst and reminisce about the good ol' days of MSN messenger.

The first episode of You Look Tired is here!

Each week we will discuss a piece of writing that explores the exhausting parts of life. In this episode, Karys reads an essay about crying in public, and then we chat about shedding tears in the workplace, using crying to your advantage and the evolutionary reason why we cry.

We also share a bunch of anecdotes that end in tears in an attempt to console any fellow 'soakies' out there.
