We Will Manage

In Part 2 of our relocation chat, we go deeper into the emotional side — loneliness, rebuilding your social circle, and learning that friendship in your late twenties sometimes requires Google Calendar.We talk about how much effort it takes to make new friends, what happens to old ones, and how different life feels once “grabbing a coffee” becomes a logistical challenge. It’s funny, it’s honest, and a little bit existential — but it’s also full of warmth for the people who make it all worth the discussion.🧡 About We Will ManageWelcome to "We will Manage" podcast.

This week, we’re talking about relocating for work and what that actually means beyond the airport selfies and the “new chapter!” posts. Alba’s just moved to London, Saoirse’s been in Switzerland for years, and between us we’ve collected a few stories about moving countries, starting over, and realising your social circle doesn’t pack itself into your suitcase.We chat about why we moved, what makes someone stay, how friendships shift once real life starts and why meeting people as an adult sometimes feels harder than job interviews. It’s honest, slightly chaotic, and very us.🧡 About We Will ManageWelcome to "We will Manage" podcast.

Saoirse opens up about her struggle with “productivity anxiety,” that constant guilt of not using your free time “well enough,” while Alba confesses she can’t even cook without multitasking.We unpack why our brains crave busyness, how social media and self-improvement culture keep feeding the loop, and why rainy days are sometimes the only thing that let us rest guilt-free. From dishwasher debates to the science of the “default mode network,” this one’s a therapy session disguised as a podcast episode.If you’ve ever felt weirdly anxious about relaxing… same.

This week we’re unpacking the Sunday Scaries — that pit in your stomach when the weekend’s ending and Monday is looming.For Saoirse, it’s a recurring anxiety that hits Sunday afternoons and even late at night during the week. For Alba, it’s a different experience. Together, we dive into what these feelings reveal about control, work-life balance, and how we spend our personal time.We also explore the viral concept of revenge bedtime procrastination — staying up too late just to reclaim a sliver of freedom — and why so many of us sabotage our sleep for a false sense of control.With stats (75% of workers get Sunday Scaries!) and some painfully relatable stories (Facebook Marketplace meltdowns, puppy panic at the vet…), this episode is equal parts therapy session and strategy brainstorm.If you’ve ever thought “I’m wasting my weekend” or stayed up scrolling because you didn’t want tomorrow to come, this one’s for you.__Welcome to "We will Manage" podcast.

Welcome to the second episode of season 2!

In this episode, we get personal. Spirituality, meditation, manifestation — we know, we know, it sounds a bit woo woo. But hear us out.As we near the end of Season 1 (how?!), we wanted to explore the deeper, more vulnerable side of working life. This isn't about religion or floating off into the clouds — it's about how we manage our minds. We talk about the tools we actually use (or don't), how meditation has shaped our daily habits, and whether manifestation is real or just delusion with extra steps.We also get into:- Why horses are the OG mindfulness coaches- How our childhood fairy rituals and Harry Potter obsession shaped our outlook- The neuroscience behind meditation (yes, we did research)This one’s part science and part storytime — and we loved it. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Who are you really working for? In this episode, Alba and Saoirse dive into the wild world of finding your ideal customer without losing your mind (or your sense of humor). We’re talking dream clients vs. nightmare clients, how to get into that magical “flow” state at work, and why surrounding yourself with like-minded people makes all the difference.What to expect: real talk about knowing your worth, ditching the “marketing speak,” and learning to spot your people (and gently steer away from the ones that really aren't). We also play “Translate This!”—turning stiff sales pitches into something you’d actually say out loud, and share honest stories about when it all just clicked (and when it really, really didn’t).Whether you’re a business owner, freelancer, or just trying to figure out who you want to work with, this episode is packed with laughs, insights, and practical tips to help you find—and speak to—your dream audience.The book we referenced in the episode is: "Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience" by Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi (now do you understand why Alba could not pronounce it?) Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week, we dive into the wild world of getting investors — a conversation sparked by Saoirse’s very real fundraising conversations this week, and Alba’s very real nerves pitching to actual investors for the first time.We break down what funding even means: bootstrapping vs grants vs giving away equity (aka dilutive money — yep, we had to Google it too). We talk about the mental load of fundraising, the emotional rollercoaster of pitching, and whether either of us actually wants investors. Spoiler: we’re divided.Also, we play a cheeky game of "Who Would You Invest In?" and unpack red flags we’ve seen (and maybe thrown) when it comes to asking for money.This episode is for you if you’re building something and wondering: do I need investors? What kind? How do I even start? Or if you just want to laugh along as we figure it all out, one confusing term and overly honest pitch at a time. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It starts with good intentions: a friend wants to hire you, a cousin needs a website, your partner offers to help with marketing. But somewhere between the first “no worries” and the tenth unpaid revision… things get complicated.In Episode 11 of We Will Manage, we explore the real, sometimes messy, always human side of working with loved ones.We talk about:Why it feels easier to work with people you love — and why it’s actually notThe blurred lines between friendship and professionalismListener dilemmas that hit way too close to home (yes, that friend who still hasn’t paid you)Boundaries, awkward conversations, and when to just say noThis one’s part cautionary tale, part group therapy — with some laughs, some hard truths, and a lot of “OMG, same.”Press play and let us know: would you work with a friend again? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This one’s for the nerds (us). We finally get into… organizational structures. Wait, come back! It’s actually super interesting — promise.Saoirse breaks down what vertical, horizontal, matrix, and Spotify-style structures even are, while Alba tries to figure out where her future branding empire fits in. We talk through our own workplaces, compare notes on Netflix’s vacation chaos, and play a little game of “Flat or Stacked?” (it’s like Tinder for org charts).In this episode:– How startups can go from chaotic to clear (without losing the magic)– The pros and cons of being the boss (or having one)– Real-world org charts from Apple, Amazon, John Lewis & more– Why “two pizza teams” might be the most iconic phrase of the season– Whether we’d thrive in a massive corporate or a tiny team with big dreamsAnd no, we still don’t fully understand what a guild is.

Sooo… do you actually need to build a team? And if so — how do you do it without turning into a bossy nightmare, micromanaging yourself into burnout, or hiring someone who gives off terrible vibes?In this episode of We Will Manage, Alba and Saoirse dive into the messy middle of team building. We talk about when to delegate, how to work with freelancers or collaborators, and the difference between building support with the work or for the work.We cover:How to know it’s time to stop doing everything yourselfWhy hiring isn’t the only way to build a teamReal listener dilemmas (hello, friendship boundaries + boss guilt)The disaster story that proves team building isn’t about “forced fun”Plus: stats, voice notes, and a Would You Rather game that makes us question everything.This is for anyone who’s somewhere between burnt out and bossed up — trying to build something real without losing themselves in the process.🎧 Tune in, take notes, and maybe fire that sock puppet co-worker. We won’t judge. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Today’s a special one: our first recorded chat since launching We Will Manage into the wild! We’re celebrating with Baileys, behind-the-scenes updates, and a full deep dive into something that causes way more chaos at work than it should — communication.From voice notes and vague emails to last-minute client chaos, we unpack:– The T.I.P. method for clear communication– Real miscommunication stories from our work lives– Why good emails = happy teammates– What to do when a client edits a story 7 times… then wants the originalPlus, we debut a new game: Inbox Roulette — where we blindly scroll our sent folders and guess the tone, clarity, and intention behind old messages (some great, some deeply confusing).We also touch on:– The weird line between WhatsApp and email– What makes a portfolio actually useful at an event– How communication affects leadership, contracts, and creativityIt’s a chill, funny, slightly chaotic chat — and a reminder that learning to say what you mean can honestly change everything. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This one’s for anyone who's ever felt undervalued, overworked, or straight-up screwed over in business.In Episode 6 of We Will Manage, we talk about the hard stuff: broken trust, blurred boundaries, stolen ideas, and those moments where you realise... you should have sent that contract.We share listener stories, freelance horror moments, and tips for protecting yourself in the workplace—whether you're on payroll or running your own thing.In this episode:– Why “just a quick logo” is rarely quick– What scope creep actually looks like (and how to shut it down)– The emotional toll of getting taken advantage of– How to set boundaries that stick– Tips for employees dealing with stolen credit or being overlooked– How to handle that nightmare client who keeps adding workPlus: Two truths and a lie about work, recognition, and freelance chaos.Spoiler: Contracts are your friend.
