Work Wife Confessions

This week we’re talking ANXIETY 😵‍💫The overthinking, the spiralling, the random 3am panic over something you said in 2017… why are so many of us anxious all the time?We chat about what anxiety actually is, why our brains seem permanently set to worst-case scenario, and whether humans were ever meant to cope with the constant bombardment of modern life. From fight-or-flight to nervous systems on strike, we’re breaking it all down in a way that actually makes sense.Plus: good news catch-up, Rebecca’s eye roll of the week, Dee’s overshare (obviously), and your listener experiences of anxiety.If your brain has ever treated a minor inconvenience like a national emergency… this one’s for you.

The Met Gala gets dissected (obviously), Rebecca’s eye roll makes an appearance, and Dee overshares… again. We also bring some good news to brighten the week before the conversation takes a turn into something deeper.In one of our most honest chats yet, we talk about the reality of cancer, the things people don’t always understand, and what cancer patients wish everyone else knew. Funny, chaotic, emotional… basically business as usual.

In this episode, we talk about the chaos of real life and the realisation that nobody actually has it all figured out.Growing up, we thought adulthood meant being organised, confident, and completely in control… turns out, most of us are just winging it.We also get into how we first met (and why Rebecca didn’t like Dee at all), along with a few questionable opinions and the kind of conversations that probably should have stayed in our heads.As always, expect honesty, oversharing, and a bit of chaos.Are you winging it, or do you actually have your life together? 👀We’re collecting answers for next week’s episode 🎙️

Watch this pod on YouTube: https:www.YouTube.com/@workwifeconfessionsIn our very first episode, we start as we mean to go on! We are honest, unfiltered, and a little bit vulnerable!We share our own experiences of miscarriage, baby loss, difficult pregnancies and postnatal depression. These are conversations that are often kept quiet, but we believe they shouldn’t be.This is a deeply personal episode, and at times it may be a difficult listen, so please take care of yourself as you listen.Alongside the heavier moments, there’s still space for real talk, a bit of oversharing, and the occasional eye roll—because that’s who we are.If this is something you’ve experienced, or supported someone through, you’re not alone.New episodes weekly.GET IN TOUCH/SUBSCRIBE/LIKE/SHARE:Instagram: @workwifeconfessionsEmail: [email protected] resources:Women's Health Ireland - https://www.womenshealthireland.ie/Postpartum Support International - https://www.postpartum.net/Understanding Tongue Tie in Babies - https://www.healthline.com/health/tongue-tie
