About this listen

Let’s face it — life isn’t always a main quest. Sometimes, it’s just about surviving the side missions: the bad days, the stress spirals, and the moments where your only achievement is putting on clean socks.

In this episode of Life’s Side Quests, I unpack the weird, wonderful, and occasionally questionable ways we cope. From comfort TV to retail therapy, rage walks to denial naps — I’m exploring how we all find ways to keep going when things get a bit... much.

No judgment, no preachy self-help vibes — just an honest chat about mental load, survival mode, and finding small joys in the chaos. If you've ever cried into your takeaway or panic-cleaned your entire flat at 2AM, this one's for you.
