Wing It

Time really does fly when you're Winging It!  Feels like yesterday that the idea of Wing It was just a twinkle in our eyes. And now two seasons, two years and a pandemic later, we have come to the end of our second season and the beginning of some very exciting and very big chapters in both our lives.  From unemployment to new jobs, moving flats, financial ups and downs, a few weekend breaks here and there and an actual baby, Yonnie and Aiysha have been on a journey to say the least. It's time to say goodbye FOR NOW and we will be returning for another season very, very soon.  Have a listen in to some nostalgic chit chat as we look back on past guests and favourite episodes. Make sure you catch up on any you missed and we are still here to answer any questions about any of the topics we have discussed!  Thank you to everyone who has listened in, supported us, sent in questions and feedback. It has been amazing to say the least and we would love for you to continue sending in feedback and questions! But for now, have a lovely Christmas and New Year and that's a wrap on 2021 folks!  See you soon,  Aiysh and Yonnie xxx 

As Aiysha is approaching her due date, we thought this would be the perfect time to spill the beans on all things pregnancy. And not just the stuff you get taught in school science lessons but all the stuff NO ONE tells you.  For the ladies AND the fellas, whether you're planning to have kids in the future or are just interested in what growing a human entails, then have a listen to Aiysha revealing the mental, physical and psychological challenges that she has come across over the last 8 - 9 months, not to mention all the perks and the exciting stuff that we are so looking forward to in January! So let's debunk the myths and get re-educated!  The links we chatted about can be found below as well as some other useful accounts I found really helped me:  @thenakeddoula, @bumptobabyacademy, @thebump, @pregnancyandpostpartumtv, @thebumptobabychapter, @getbirthconfident www.thepositivebirthcompany.co.uk The Peanut App 

As we approach the end of yet another year filled with uncertainty, there does seem to be some distant hope on the horizon. So this week, join Aiysha and Yvonne for a conversation we have been waiting for for a long time: TRAVELLING!!! And we're not talking just casual one or two week holidays. This is the kind of travelling that gives you experiences and teaches you things that a classroom never can.  As two language students who spent a lot of our university degree abroad, you can be sure that we give the full insights into living, travelling, exploring, studying and working abroad. Yes, Brexit and COVID may have an impact going forwards but there will be a time in the distant future where travelling may become a normality for us Brits again.  So from France to Spain to Germany to Morocco to Japan to Pakistan, join us on a little one hour international tour where we escape the travel restrictions and reminisce about the good ol' traveller days whilst the giving the highs and lows of living abroad.  DISCLAIMER: This episode was recorded before the rise and spread of the Omicron variant so please continue to travel responsibly and safely! 

The perfect abode To rent or to buy? To buy or to rent? At some point during our early adult life, it’s a decision most of us will come across. And Aiysha and Yvonne are here to share some insights into the advantages and disadvantages of both. Whatever stage you’re at in life, remember there’s no right time to rush into a decision. But it’s always a good idea to do the research and be informed about what is best for you. With the experience of both renting and buying, we talk about the process, finances, budgeting, what to look out for when looking for properties and what to do if you run into problems. Let us know if you’re in the process of renting or buying and have any questions or insights of your own! Useful articles: https://www.moneysavingexpert.com/mortgages/what-is-a-leasehold/ https://www.which.co.uk/news/2021/06/renting-vs-buying-is-now-a-good-time-to-buy-your-first-home-or-should-you-wait-until-2022/

Heading off to uni and don't have a clue where to start? Just graduated and want to give some fresh insights? We've got you covered! As Freshers students are heading off to university for the first time, we wanted to share some Do's and Don't whilst looking back at our time at uni all those years ago. From Bellydancing to boob dress ups, society events and freshers fairs, tune in to get the insights, advice and recommendations for the best uni experience that could end up shaping your career.  Take advantage of everything and embrace all opportunities as they come. Get yourself out of your comfort zone and put yourself out there, no matter how difficult or awkward you may find it!  Also stick around until the end of the episode for some BIG announcements and life updates! You’re not going to want to miss this one! 

Welcome back to another episode where we get the insights into a life where 'Winging It' is the new normal. Today, Ethan chats to us about his family background, subject choices and career path so far. From Biology to journalism to marketing to living abroad, have a listen to Ethan's journey and find inspiration to follow your interests without a worry that society (or family!) won't agree.  In the pressured world we find ourselves in today, we are reminded and reassured that it might just be okay not to have everything figured out. If your plan doesn't go to plan, well, it's still perfectly possible to live a life you are happy and comfortable with.  So whether you're thinking about changing industries, are uncertain about career paths or are simply looking for inspiration or reassurance, have a listen to Ethan's advice and journey and you might be surprised at just how transferrable your skills are! Happy Winging It folks! 

How do I ask for a pay rise? Am I the only one feeling like this? How do I know when it's time to leave my job? In this special episode of Wing It, Aiysha and Yvonne discuss the pit falls of entering the working world as a newbie, whether that be a school leaver or graduate. Knowing when to say no, the difference between not showing "resilience" vs. being taken advantage of and the importance of gut feelings are just some of the hurdles we have had to face when leaving university and starting work as a young adult. Confidence and awareness are of course things that come with time and experience but we hope this episode helps you to identify some of the red flags that you'll definitely want to watch out for when making decisions about careers, managers, and companies. We wanted to summarise the red flags that we've previously encountered in the workplace, and of course, we want to hear if there's any more that you think the Wing It community should be made aware of! Poor management  If you cannot see a light at the end of the tunnel/no changes happening anytime soon Go with your gut instinct If you feel you are being treated unfairly - yes unfortunately bullying can still happen in the workplace When others feel the same way as you (you can't ALL be wrong) Physical signs - listen to your body!  When you're made to feel guilty for being ill and/or taking annual leave Professional bodies in the UK that can help you navigate tricky work situations: https://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/work/ https://www.acas.org.uk/  Some interesting articles we read in preparation for this episode: https://www.forbes.com/sites/elanagross/2016/06/27/8-managers-share-the-best-way-to-ask-for-a-raise-and-get-it/?sh=66e866b874ff https://www.stylist.co.uk/life/careers/how-to-ask-for-pay-rise/492642 https://www.monster.com/career-advice/article/being-taken-advantage-of-at-work-0517

This week join Aiysha and Yvonne in celebrating Wing It's ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY! Yvonne also is dropping some EXCITING news as she achieves a big milestone in her life! We can't wait for you to help us celebrate by reflecting on the episodes from past year and as always thank you SO much for contributing and listening every single week - we couldn't have made it one year without you all! Love and thanks from your hosts, Aiysh and Yonnie xxx

Welcome to another episode of Wing It where Yvonne and Aiysha are digging deep this week into not only the Palestine-Israel war, but the impact of Western imperialism on the world. We reflect on the shocking and inhumane treatment of Western powers towards countries based on the biased attitudes that have shaped the world into what it is today. Despite our school history lessons being limited to 19th and 20th century Europe, education and awareness are all key to making the smallest changes in our lives that could bring about the biggest differences. Here are some resources that could help make small steps towards expanding our knowledge and awareness of western atrocities and preventing it from happening again: Websites - https://www.history.com/topics/middle-east/palestine https://www.bbc.co.uk/newsround/20436092 Instagram accounts -  @free.Palestine.1948 - @adnan_barq - @jewishvoiceforpeace - @theimeu - @letstalkpalestine - @muna.kurd15 - @ahmedeldin - @mohammedelkurd Films - Hotel Rwanda by Terry George - Omar by Hany Abu Assad - Paradise Now by Hany Abu Assad - Divine Intervention by Elia Suleiman

Relationships are always a big talking point but we rarely talk about the heartbreaks, challenges and beauties of friendships. The friends who are always there for you, the friends who come and go, the friends who are like siblings and the friends who are always up for anything. Today, join Yvonne and Aiysha as we chat to Ellis, one of Yvonne’s longest and closest friends on how the pandemic has affected our friendships, how previous experiences have shaped these relationships and how this has continued to change and develop with age. We hope you enjoy this episode and in celebration of the Friends Reunion, remember that no matter how much of a joke your life is, how broke you are or how much your love life’s DOA, your true friends will be there for you whatever it takes, through a pandemic, through a podcast and through the ups and downs of your life. Enjoy!

Welcome BACK to part 2 of 2, where Tariq joins us again as we dive deeper than ever into the entanglement of culture, religion and identity. As three linguists, we talk about the benefits of learning a language, the fluidity of identity and the challenges a mixed culture can bring. We talk about being a ‘foreigner’ and the ‘other’ in another country and how your identity can completely change depending on where you are, who you’re with and what you bring to the table. Let us know your thoughts on identity and how fluid or resolute you think it is, and how vital it is to your life.

We are BACK with another episode that’s been in the works for a while.  In previous episodes, we have touched on the contrasting backgrounds and culture clashes we have both faced whilst growing up. But this time, we are going DEEP, discussing our own take on identity and what it means to be...well...us. And to help us navigate through this never ending maze, we are excited to introduce Tariq, a fellow navigator, who gives us an insight into the experiences he has faced that have come to shape his identity today. We hope you enjoy this discussion and the questions we raise whilst trying to come to terms with what it means to be white British, South Asian British and British Muslim. 

As we are FINALLY in the stages leading up to a post-COVID world, it was time to celebrate the moment with a brand new episode, spilling our hearts with the ambitions, dreams and goals that have been put on hold for a year! Join us as we talk about our plans for travel, seeing friends and family, sitting indoors and actually blowing out candles on a birthday cake (Remember that? Good times eh?) Of course there is still a long way to go for 'normal' to become the new 'normal' again (if that's even possible), but there's no harm in looking forward to seeing your parents or grandparents again or giving your friends a hug after talking to them them through a screen for months on end.   Keep your hand sanitisers and your face masks close by and keeping socially distanced from strangers should be a thing anyway, but we hope this episode gets you motivated, excited and longing for the day you can finally start putting all those standstill plans into motion again.  And if you're not quite ready to dive straight into the physical world or are feeling a little bit anxious or overwhelmed, then THAT'S OKAY. You are DEFINITELY not the only one. Take one day at a time and know you can still be your amazing introvert self, curled up on the sofa with a book. It just means that at least you can invite a friend over for tea and cake at some point!  So whether it's partying, travelling, seeing family or just clothes shopping, let us know what YOU are looking forward to post-lockdown!

Imposter syndrome is on the tip of everyone’s tongue at the moment when it comes to lockdown, new jobs, applications and new paths in life. It’s something that the majority of people have experienced in their life and can have a significant impact on confidence and progress, holding them back without them even knowing it. In this episode, join us as we delve deep into the importance of speaking openly and honestly about mental health, particularly at the moment with the negativity of the news and social media is having such a suffocating effect on people's mental health. We also go a little deeper with what imposter syndrome actually is, how you can tell if you’re suffering from it and what to do to challenge and overcome it so it stops holding back the badass human you really are. Below are some great links and tools if you want to research a little more about it and as always, reach out with any questions or concerns you may have! https://time.com/5312483/how-to-deal-with-impostor-syndrome/ https://www.ted.com/talks/elizabeth_cox_what_is_imposter_syndrome_and_how_can_you_combat_it?language=en (The TED app in general has some amazing quick videos and tips and tricks on there for tackling everyday challenges) 

In celebration of International Women’s Day AND Women In Science Day which was a few weeks back, we are thrilled to have Arthie talking to us today about her experiences as a woman in engineering and working in a male dominated environment.  Where do you even begin to tackle the hurdles that come with gender bias? And what do you do when it’s the Queen Bee herself who’s out to get you? Listen to this episode for some great top tips, advice and a two sided discussion about how inequality still infiltrates every part of our lives. Not to mention how we need to continue to fight against it, not just for ourselves but for those women and minority groups who don’t have a voice at all.  We look forward to hearing your thoughts and please do reach out with any questions. Boys - this applies to you too! If you are interested in doing engineering in the future and don't know where to start - take a look at the UCAS website for a breakdown of all your choices. As Arthie advised - it's always good to do your research!  https://www.ucas.com/explore/subjects/engineering-and-technology To read more about 'Queen Bee syndrome', check out this BBC news article - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-41165076 and Yvonne highly recommends giving Mad Men a watch to see how it might manifest in the workplace! https://www.womeninscienceday.org/   https://www.internationalwomensday.com/

Welcome back! Join us this week as we summarise the financial topics that we will be delving deeper into later on in the series.  Our lack of financial education in school has resulted in our generation being scammed and side tracked time and time again when it comes to money. Whether that's taxes, pensions, investments, bills, cars or mortgages, as we enter our twenties, we know a lot less than we should.  But thankfully, there's more resources and advisors out there now to help guide and direct us. Breaking things down and making them simple is definitely the way forward! Make sure you stay tuned for in-depth money topics as we bring on guests who are experts in their field!

WE ARE BACK AND WINGING IT HARDER THAN EVER in the year 2021!  Join us for the first episode of season 2 as we celebrate a much awaited success with Yvonne's employment status as well as reflecting on the previous year and sharing our dreams for this year. *ahem, travel, travel and more travel*. Despite us having to queue in the non-EU queue and actually apply for a visa to travel an hour across the sea, our hopes are still strong!  Not to mention the current political situation in the UK and US we now find ourselves in and with so many things changing for our generation as a result, the best thing to do is to keep winging it forward! 

Join Aiysha and Yvonne for one last episode of 2020 to talk all things TABOO! Sex. Menstruation. Contraception. Smear Tests. Finance. Bowel Habits. You name it - we're going to talk about it! There are many awkward and sensitive topics that so many people are afraid to talk about, but on Wing It we want to break down these barriers, open our minds and have these honest conversations - and we invite you guys to do the same! For your guide on contraception, as mentioned in this episode, check out - https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/contraception/ Check out our very own Aiysha Khan and her finance tips on @thegradbiblemag - https://www.instagram.com/p/CGhKX6kDL5y/ Thank you to all of our listeners old and new for your continuous support on this amazing journey we've had so far- we can't WAIT to bring you some fresh content in the new year! Lots of love and seasons greetings from your hosts Aiysh and Yonnie xxx

This week we are BACK with another episode talking about the big elephant in the room that has been a constant thought over lockdown: WEIGHT GAIN. Join us as we go into the brutal, honest truths of gaining weight due to the simple fact that we have been in lockdown for 8 months...let’s be real, we haven’t moved, we’ve eaten more AND THAT’S okay! Also, please don’t hate us as we discuss the woes and tribulations of wearing make up (we don’t know ANYTHING...) and the professional expectations of a woman’s appearance in the workplace. In other words, you know all that hair and all those spots and lumps and bumps that are on your body? They’re COMPLETELY normal. And we’re here to remind you of that! So grab a hot bevvy and cosy up for some good old fashioned adulting ranting!

This week Tasha is back for a second episode to chat through some of the highs and lows of her career in management so far. Us 3 also look back fondly on our time as a team - I think we can agree that dealing with a crisis is a great form of team bonding and we are all still convinced that squids ARE a (sea) safari animal! This is another great episode with sound advice from Tasha, particularly this little nugget that we wanted to highlight during these uncertain times - 'you can't make a permanent decision based on a short term situation'. Looking forward to you hopping on board our management roller coaster with us!

This week we welcome our former manager Tasha to Wing It. As we reminisce on our time spent working together, we discuss the importance of recognising each others strengths, having open and honest communication, and making sure you tell each other when you're slaying at life! Tasha shares her insights on her journey through management, the do's and don'ts to creating a great team dynamic and encourages budding managers not be afraid to go for a role you don't think you're ready for! We navigate the challenges and stigmas attached to being a young manager, highlighting that age is merely a number because young people are often the one's that bring new ideas to the table. Remember, despite being young, you still have a voice and an opinion so don't be afraid to rock the boat and offer an outsiders perspective! We all agree that confidence and resilience bode well when trying to prove yourself as a credible manager at 22! We spoke for hours when recording this episode, but we managed to put together all the best bits into two bite-sized episodes - part two drops next week so stay tuned for the conclusion and more tips and tricks for current and aspiring managers!

Join us this week as we speak to Amaan, a Year 13 student, whose future dreams have been thrown into a sea of uncertainty and confusion, along with so many others studying for a place in further education that may no longer exist. We chat to him about how his life has changed since March 2020, his frustration towards the government’s lack of consideration for schools and students and how he himself has coped under lockdown. Listen out for his amazing pearls of wisdom for students and young people of any age, struggling to cope with a pandemic alongside grades, exams and a very uncertain future. As always, check out www.lifesaplayground.co.uk and @make_life_a_playground for continuous student support!

As the furlough scheme in the UK comes to an end, we wanted to talk about how to stand out in the ever competitive job market. With Aiysha being made redundant and Yvonne's new role ceasing to exist at the start of the pandemic, we share our tips and tricks on how to cope with financial insecurity and how to mix things up when applying for jobs. Since Aiysha and Yvonne also have recruitment experience, they share their advice from an employer's perspective on how to impress the recruiter using one piece of paper and how to kill it in an interview!  https://lifesaplayground.co.uk/community-job-page - your one-stop shop for job boards and websites to upskill yourself https://www.fiverr.com/yvonnebetts19 - for CV and cover letter proofreading and editing If you have any tips or recommendations yourselves, please do message us so we can share them with our Wing It community!

After speaking to Lucie a few weeks ago, join Yvonne and Aiysha this week as they talk about their own relationship with the business world and how it's changed over lockdown. We are talking business ideas, creativity, courses and just THROWING YOURSELF IN THE DEEP END when the time comes to start living outside your comfort zone. As we both went about business in quite different ways, have a listen and decide who you relate to the most and what kind of entrepreneur you would be.

Cinzia shares anecdotes from her childhood, gives us some great reading recommendations from her favourite Nigerian authors, discusses the issue of colourism, and explains what the BLM movement means to her. Cinzia also gives Aiysha, Yvonne, and anyone listening who would like to educate themselves on these matters some encouragement and wise words of advice going forwards.

This week Aiysha and Yvonne are joined by Cinzia Uba, Yvonne's friend and former colleague, to talk about her experiences as a black female growing up in Italy. Cinzia gives us an insight into her background, how her parents adjusted to life in Italy, and how her life and perspectives changed when she moved to the UK in 2012.  Cinzia, Aiysha and Yvonne also take a moment to appreciate London and all it's multicultural and multilingual glory!  This episode is merely a small teaser about Cinzia and her life before we delve a little deeper in next week's episode. You won't want to miss it!

This week, Aiysha and Yvonne are joined by Lucie Coudret, Aiysha's long-time uni friend and fellow belly dancing enthusiast, to talk about all things business!

This week, join Aiysha and Yvonne as they chat about the weird feelings of nostalgia and confusion that September has brought about as well as what it means to set goals for the future. Are you a goal-setter or happy to go with the flow? And do you feel like September brings about a New Year vibe, a back to school vibe, a new season vibe? Or do you think we're just overthinking? Have a listen and let us know whether you have any September goals and how you're feeling coming up to the end of 2020! Because we all know how much of a rollercoaster it's been!

This week Aiysha and Yvonne share their sources of inspiration, from books, to Instagram pages, movies and people! We discuss how inspiration and motivation go hand-in-hand - the reason WHY you are doing something needs to be strong enough for you to succeed, whether your idea involves making money or not! Even if you make a difference to one person, once a week - you are doing something right!  Remember, if you see someone start a new page, business or venture that you like or agree with - give them a boost! By telling that individual what they are doing is having an impact, you may be the one person they needed to hear from that week to keep doing what they are doing! As promised, here are some of the names, books and pages that were recommended and given shout outs to! @sarahakwisombe - Founder of the No Bull Business School @nobullschool @jensincero - Author of You Are a Badass @ecochoicesbyromane - @twins_tableforone - @ophelyfithealth @therealkiyosaki - Author of Rich Dad Poor Dad @tonyrobbins The Pursuit of Happyness Enjoy!

It seems Aiysha and Yvonne aren't the only one's just winging it through life! With 10 episodes in, this marks a mini-milestone for Wing It as we catch up and reflect on recent news headlines, current affairs, UK and US politics past, present and future and we hear from you guys by reading through your suggestions for topics you want us to discuss and contribute to! We can't wait for you to join us and hear if you would also root for London Independence!

This week, Aiysha & Yvonne talk pressure! The pressure from your friends and peers, the pressure to be in a "perfect" relationship and to find "the one". The pressure of academics, to perform and achieve - to be "the first" or "the best" in class or among your family. The pressure to succeed first time, without hesitation or mistakes. The pressure as a woman to be able to cook, clean and have children in your early twenties. The pressure to be successful at all costs. Looking forward to you joining in the conversation and, as always, hearing your thoughts and feedback!

This week on Wing It, Yvonne gives us an insight into living with Type 1 diabetes. Yvonne shares her story right from her accidental diagnosis; misconceptions around the disease; anecdotes from school, uni and work; how her support system and technology have helped make living with type 1 diabetes a lot easier over the years; and what 4 months being stuck in quarantine has done to her diabetes control. Yvonne also recommends some cool low-carb substitutes and apps that we think a lot of us could benefit from! We can't wait for you to join us in the discussion!

Join Aiysha & Yvonne this week in discussing how to define success and having the courage to take risks - especially in your twenties! We hear your thoughts and opinions on the topic and share our own in trying to steer away from the conventional way of defining "success" and overcoming the fear of "failing". We learn that most of the time, the only person stopping you from achieving something - is YOURSELF! If you want to contribute to future discussions and polls please follow @make_life_a_playground on Instagram, or to read more on the topic, please check out Aiysha's latest blog post on http://lifesaplayground.co.uk/ - 'Bungee Jumping into Success'

Crime, drama, fantasy, documentaries, true life series or just a good ol' episode of Friends - this week Aiysha and Yvonne talk TV and share insights into some of their favourite TV shows and more. Tune into the debate on whether searching for spoilers is acceptable, reading the books vs. on-screen portrayal of a series, and simply what TV genre trumps them all?

On this week's episode, we discuss a few exciting updates plus the power of education in making or breaking the life of a student. Let us know your thoughts on the current education system and whether you think it's effective in preparing us for life!

With unemployment on the rise, this week we are talking tricky job applications, disloyal companies and interviews of the future! A great listen for anyone feeling deflated or demotivated about the current job situation.

Are we too old for TikTok? Should we pack up and move abroad? Join us in welcoming Aiysha's lil sis, Iqz, as she shares some some interesting insights into her life choices and helps us untangle the ever-changing world of social media.

Tackling the challenges of isolation amidst COVID-19 and looking for the silver lining on cloudy days. Have a listen to how we coped under quarantine and the impacts of the coronavirus on our lives!

An introduction to who we are, what we're all about and you get to decide whether you want more!
