exposing our 2025 ins and outs
“ins and outs” but make them quarterly. no truly, it blew my mind too!sitting across from lottie – the passionate founder of @banish.au – i was in awe of her assuredness and pragmatism. something as simple as putting on an ‘all too well 10 minute version’ timer on a task that i hate made me really reconsider how scheduling (and time in general) can feel super intimidating when it doesn’t need to.in this episode: work-life balance, silly hobbies without goals and our version of emma chamberlain’s anti-gremlin challenge.lil reminder: schedule some time for FUN and trot to Dendy for Night Shift with your pals, fucking interesting films, nightly at nine.this episode of little things was executive produced by alice griffin & jannah anderson, and produced by natasha lal.checking in on you every fortnight 🩵

"I swap house keys with all my closest friends"
how do you cope when you’re really going through it? milo hartill – performer, activist, and the funniest person i’ve chatted to in ages – gets better than most how tricky self-care can be sometimes. in the moments when things become a bit much, they swap judgement for some self-bargaining coping mechanisms that i’m definitely adopting in future. this episode with milo covers SO much — everything from why swapping house keys is the best thing you'll do for your friendships, to what it’s like having a panic attack on the opera house stage (mid-performance omg), and how the global right-wing swing made them fundamentally reconsider how they move through the world. feel better during your busiest periods and sip a lemon lime & bitters thanks to our partner Angostura Bitters 🫧 this episode of little things was executive produced by alice griffin & jannah anderson, and produced by evie georgiou & talecia vescio. checking in on you every fortnight 🩵

“making things with my hands changed my life”
anyone else find it really hard to enjoy making things for fear that they won’t turn out how you want them to? as a perfectionist, i’ve struggled to connect with my artistic side for years, but this chat with remy (@remypr) kinda changed everything for me. as an incredible ceramic designer, remy’s well aware that literally nothing he makes will turn out exactly how he originally envisioned it. and trusting the process and working it out along the way? that’s where the real beauty is.also in this episode: the perfect sunday reset, letting go of what’s broken and making friends with cows in the french countryside. consider taking a lil break this dry july and join us for a bitters and soda thanks to our partner Angostura Bitters 🫧this episode of little things was executive produced by alice griffin & jannah anderson, and produced by evie georgiou & talecia vescio.checking in on you every fortnight 🩵
host @_alicegriffin ask her fave creatives about the accessible, affordable, sometimes unorthodox acts of self care they do to set themselves up for a day that feels happy vs a day that feels productive. born from a yearning for self care content that felt more like a wholesome peek into someone’s everyday life and less like fuel for comparison, negative self-talk and a fear of falling short, we realise that the little things... are actually the big things. 🩵
