Thank you for being part of the journey with us so far, we’re so glad you’re here.This week, we're taking a trip back in time to Bridget's London, where a single woman in her early 30s can live alone in Borough Market on a publishing salary. Where the knickers are enormous, the jumpers are reindeer themed and the soup is blue.We talk about our longing for the social mobility of the nineties and early noughties, the cost of being single, and how diet culture and poor self image are stealing all of our money.You should definitely pick up Nicola Slawson's book, Single, and check out Emma Edwards @thebrokegeneration.We hope you enjoy, and please do rate, review and follow - as a new podcast, every bit of support makes a big difference!If you want to suggest a film, book, TV show or topic for us to put under the money microscope, please DM us @helpmeimpoorcast or email us at [email protected] just a quick heads-up: all content on HMIP is for information and education purposes only.
