This storytime is actually insane somehow that spiralled into one of the most chaotic school experiences ever. A teacher (who had an ex-army background) spread things behind my back, and at one point literally had school security sent out to find me 😭 It genuinely felt like I was in a psychological thriller. You need to hear this one from the start.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This episode follows the chaos, romance, and reality of a staring contest, Nadiya found herself unexpectedly falling in love, and everyone had to face the sting of failure. From awkward moments and emotional highs to hard truths and personal growth, it’s about learning that not every loss is a bad thing and sometimes failure leads you exactly where you need to be.

In this episode, we’re talking about why so many of us struggle to take risks especially when it comes to leaving comfort zones, stepping away from stable corporate jobs, and choosing the path that actually aligns with our dreams. Fear of failure, fear of judgment, and limiting beliefs often keep us stuck in places that feel safe but unfulfilling. We convince ourselves that security is better than uncertainty, even when deep down we know we want more. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This episode is a real one. After reading some of your comments from the last episode, over on the other app we knew we had to go deeper. We’re talking about things that aren’t always easy to say out loud eating disorders, the pressure of the heat online, and the hate directed at Hannah. But it’s bigger than that. It’s about the expectations placed on women’s bodies. Who sets them? Why do we internalise them? And what does it actually cost us to keep trying to meet them? This conversation is honest, uncomfortable at times, but necessary. Because behind every comment, every comparison, every “ideal” there are real people navigating it in real time. Thank you for opening up the conversation with us. 🤍 None of this noise, pressure, or hate will ever change we are.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

this week was a lot… hair change, deep chats & a very intense cab ride 😭 Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This dilemma is wild… A girl writes in about her sister allegedly stealing her business ID and now expects her to show up at her wedding like nothing happened. So she’s made a decision: she’s not going. But is she right? Or is this taking things too far? We break down the situation, give our honest opinions, and talk about family, boundaries, and betrayal. PLUS we introduce our new segment: The Redacted Files 👀  Some stories are just too messy… We also catch up and get into everything you’ve missed. What would YOU do in this situation? Let us know in the comments. 🎧 New episodes every week  📌 Like, comment & subscribe EMAIL US: [email protected] Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Eid prep turned into pure chaos 😭🌙 In this episode, we’re talking all things Eid from our go-to shops and outfit planning to the most RANDOM argument about who deserves to wear cheetah print (???) But it also gets real. We open up about wearing the hijab, not wearing the hijab, and the different pressures, choices, and experiences around it honest, unfiltered, and from our own perspectives.

This week on Friday Briefing with Hannah and Nadiya, we’re catching up as Ramadan comes to an end (how did the month go so fast?!). We talk about the last 10 nights, both of us getting sick at the worst possible time, and the unexpected rise of the Matcha Boys calm down ladies! In this week’s briefing we also address some online commotion, react to clips from Blue Therapy, and read a listener message from Ethan. Then we get into the real conversation: jealousy in friendships. After seeing a viral TikTok about a girl openly talking about hating her friend, we unpack the uncomfortable truth that sometimes the people closest to you might not actually want the best for you. In today’s Briefing Box we’re discussing why not every long-term friend is someone you should keep close. From friends who repeat your private conversations, to people who constantly assume the worst about others, to being called “too religious” for trying to guide someone away from bad behaviour we’ve seen it all. Plus we share a dilemma from a listener and give our honest advice. Because sometimes the hardest lesson to learn is this:  some friendships are meant for a season, not a lifetime. Hosted on Acast.
