Well well well, a whopping 8 guests later we are getting to wrap up Season 1 of our favourite project of 2021! We take a brief time out to rant but to also take a trip down memory lane. P.s. Don't grab to booty like Hancock, you look like a Sim.
This week we were joined by social media mogul and strategist, entrepreneur and advocate for all life online - Daisy Morris from The Self Hood. Now, you don't need to be in the world of social media or marketing to gain insight and encouragement from this episode. Daisy takes us through the trials and tribulations of social media as well as expelling taboos and giving us all the juicy tips we need to help with our individual relationships with social media.
We hope everyone has taken off their hat ready to bow down bitches, because we have Podcast Royalty joining us today. We sat down with the one and only (that is not said lightly) Lauren Mahon, Broadcaster, Founder of Girl VS Cancer, Activist and just an all-round legend to talk about everything and anything in between. *Some people may find this episode triggering as we speak openly around sexual assault, cancer diagnosis and mental health so please listen with caution but remember, you are not alone in anything you face.* You can find all the details regarding Girl Vs Cancer including the incredible Feeling Myself Campaign https://girlvscancer.co.uk/ and make sure to check out CoppaFeel Monthly Reminder service here at https://coppafeel.org/remind-me/
This week, Hannah and Liv sat down with the one and only, Nia The Light - influencer, content creator, salon owner and now published author with ‘The Little Book of Light’. We spoke about body acceptance, self-discovery, and loving every inch of your being. Nia is a true inspiration, at 23 this Gemini has shown she is a force to be reckoned with simply for just being herself. Growing a huge community for women and those who identify, to take your insecurities, to strip them down, and love what’s underneath.
Mum, if you're about to click on this, don't. Really appreciate your support on our baby but this isn't for mothers' ears (ours anyway!). We sat down for a catch up just us two this week to remind you that we are here to talk shit, to educate, and to make you feel like you're not alone in your worries. We spoke about turning into a douche once we have money (surely not?), Imposter Syndrome, and some sexual mishaps. A lot of what we talk about we say in jest, so as ever, pinch of salty salt people. We're your mates and we love you!
Well, whoever said manifestation doesn't work, you know what to suck on. At the beginning of this journey, one person that we really wanted to come on and chat to us was Sarah Akwisombe. Sunday Times Best Seller for 'The Money is Coming', Business owner, Entrepreneur, Mother and Wife, someone that really does show represent the magic of being a woman. We discussed her journey as an author, spirituality, 'Boss Magic', and dealing with "haters". We wanted to take the time and write here following our chat with Sarah who kindly opened up to us about everything and anything! that if you feel a way towards anyone and their own personal experience living on this big ol' planet then remove them from your vision or come away from the situ that urks you. Haters are of course inevitable, but in what has been an extremely tough year for everyone psychologically from Kim K to Peter down in Somerset, we must be kind. You do not know what anyone is going through. So although as Hannah says - hatters mean you're poppin', please be respectful to the emotions of others. THANK YA!
Finally we teamed up with Liv's insta bestie, Kennedy Taylor. Jack of All Trades, DJ, Presenter, Producer and overall creative BABE. We had every intention of discussing everything and anything, which we basically did from vagina pumps, to misogyny, you're in for a few treats and screams.
In honour of the best day of the year - quite frankly... we decided to do a special takeover to celebrate International Womxn's Day. IWD is a day of opportunity to amplify our voices in a society that persistently tries to muffle us. We should take this day to pause, reflect and celebrate the amazing beings that are women and those who identify - reminding everyone collectively, that we ain’t going anywhere (!!!) we’re going to continue to smash the glass ceilings until we see the correct representation and equality across the board.
Yes, You're in for a treat. Yes, we're just as bored as you locked up in our UK Homes, but this week we have a very special friend and guest joining us on the podcast. She goes by the name of 'detective' now as she has unveiled her skills to the world this month going viral on Tik Tok becoming the infamous face of the biggest investigations since the Da Vinci Code. We are of course talking about Hannah Farrell @hfazzz who has become an internet sensation as she broke the Kardashian/Jenner Tequila code, predicting and interacting with the alcohol brand owner Kendall Jenner who has finally revealed her brand new Tequila, 818. Find out what she had to say about her experience.

For the 4th Episode of 'It's Not That Deep' we wanted to discuss the importance of acknowledging grief, trauma, and your mental state after loosing someone close to you. Grief is a word that we are all familiar with, however, many of us haven't yet experienced the depth of the word. We were joined by Colleague and friend, Rosie Crocombe, a Radio and Streaming Plugger at Sony Music who, following 6 months into her new life in London sadly lost her dad to depression.

We even went and changed the artwork colours for this one mate. For Episode 3 of INTD, we were joined by Jade Mordente who is a Holistic Healer specialising in Reiki, Tarot, Meditation, Crystals and the cycles of the Moon. We wanted to discuss how to find your purpose and the journey to get there with the help of your Intuition and Holistic practices. This episode was a LOT! The energy Jade has and the way she works is something we left the studio in awe of. We were lucky to have a tarot session with Jade during the recording but because of it's bloody accuracy and depth we decided to keep this away from everyone else's' ears! But wow, all we can say is Thank You Jade.

For the second instalment of #ItsNotThatDeep, Liv and Hannah open up about their own experiences with being 'unapologetically' themselves, self-expression, and how society can impact our confidence with our own appearance looking at Harry Styles', following the publication of his Vogue cover wearing women's clothing that caused attention across social media. The cover stirred many to question Styles' intent and whether he is in fact culturally appropriating which the girls discuss.
