169: Why We Don’t Always Practice What We Preach

from The Rosie and Roula Show · host Roula Abou Haidar and Rosie Burrows

It started as a chat about waiting rooms and somehow turned into a full-blown confession.

From phone etiquette to emotional regulation, this one’s about those tiny moments that reveal who we are when we’re not thinking straight.We also circle back to our earlier rants about GPs running late, panic decision-making, and how breathing (literally) can change everything.Ever done something you swore you’d never do — and realised it’s not that simple when you’re in the moment?Related episodes70: Why Are GP's always Late? 161: Why Do People Use Speakerphone in Public?
