• Ep 131: How to Actually Manage Your Manager (Without Losing Your Mind)

  Stop waiting for your manager to read your mind! Nat and Kristen share the tools that actually work for managing up - from assuming positive intent instead of creating villain stories in your head, to that weekly email format that makes you look like the most organised person alive. They cover how to get more autonomy without your boss panicking, why leading with solutions beats dumping problems every time, and the art of strategic visibility (hint: forward those compliments). For anyone who wants to turn this relationship into actual teamwork for a win-win.Loved what you heard? Pass it on and leave us a 5-star review! 'Til next week, Powrsuiters!

• Ep 128: Your Social Life Deserves a Strategy

  Your social life deserves a strategy. Nat and Kristen break down the friendship audit - who are your actual top 5, which relationships drain precious energy, and why you can't maintain 100 ‘close’ friendships. Plus we chat about how to reconnect without the awkward ‘catch me up on your entire life’ marathon, and why loose connections are actually pretty handy and should be low maintenance.Loved what you heard?

• Ep 127: The Loneliness Fix: Real Connection vs Digital Scrolling

  We're all craving human connection but somehow can't be bothered leaving the house. Sound familiar? After Kristen's solo weekend that left her feeling oddly hollow, we're diving into why over half our community is desperately lonely yet terrible at actually showing up. Turns out we've trained ourselves to choose the couch over real humans, and surprise - it's making us miserable. We're sharing stories of random boat trips and pottery weekends that led to lifelong friendships, plus why saying yes to that awkward neighbour invitation might be exactly what you need. Because here's the thing: staying isolated feels easy but leaves you drained, while making the effort to connect feels hard in the moment but actually energises you.Loved what you heard?

• Ep 126: Energy Boosters That Actually Work

  Nat and Kristen take a personality quiz to figure out if they're introverts or extroverts (one's bang in the middle, one definitely gets energy from people), then share practical ways to actually boost your energy instead of just being perpetually exhausted. From fake commutes and guilt-free downtime to putting on real clothes for video calls, they cover what works for different personality types. Plus: why dating drains you, the truth about naps, and Nat's absinthe incident that has Kristen plotting an intervention. For anyone who's tired of being tired and wants to discover what gives them their energy back.Loved what you heard? Pass it on and leave us a 5-star review! 'Til next week, Powrsuiters!
