Raise your hand if you were ever warned about toxic work environments as a child or teenager? We’re guessing not many people spoke up about this. Today this conversation is more prevalent, but not when we were younger. In this episode we unpack

It’s far too easy for us to misunderstand the generations that came before us and to judge those that come after us. If we actually sat down and had a conversation with one another, we would realise that we all struggle with our own things. W
This week we chat about what we thought relationships would be like. How did movies influence our idea of romantic relationships, breakups and heartbreaks? What do we wish we knew more about when it comes to relationships? We chat about this an
This week we decided to have a fun Q&A with one another. It’s all about our careers. We discuss what we’ve learnt, what we’d do differently, what we enjoy and share some other key lessons. If you’re starting to build a career or even if you h

Episode 1: Celebrating women We’re back with season 3 of The Brown Girl’s Guide podcast. This week we thought it would be great to simply just celebrate women. Have a listen to find out who we admire and who we just think are some bad ass, wo
No one tells you how difficult it is to maintain friendships as an adult. And how easy it is to lose friends. In this episode we discuss this at length and dip into our own personal experiences around this topic. What are we drinking?Coffee
With everyone struggling under the pressures of work and personal life, we thought we’d dive into some tips on better work-life balance. You will hear in the conversation that we do not have it nailed down ourselves, but we’re working on it!
