Show Notes
Sinéad, Nessa and Alvagh talk about growing up before mobile phones. Waiting by the landline for someone to ring, tapping payphones for free calls, three TV channels, taping songs off the radio, meeting people at Clery's clock with no way to contact them if plans changed. They also cover old beauty habits like sunbeds, baby oil tanning and DIY hair dye gone wrong, plus school with 40 to 50 kids in a class and how different growing up was depending on which side of Dublin you were from. It ends with a debate on whether phones and fitness trackers are actually good for us, and a challenge to go six hours without a phone. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week we keep it light with a round of Would You Rather, and it gets more honest than we planned. We talk about the soul habit Sinead has been craving back, how reformer Pilates is becoming a real self-care ritual, and why a spritz of face mist counts as a signal to your nervous system. Then the questions start. Would you rather know your future or change your past? Be right or be happy? Know what everyone really thinks of you, or never know? We also tackle the most ridiculous things we’ve bought thinking they’d change our lives, plus homework: a quick audit of your makeup bag. Soulfile Self-Care is on November 8th at Barberstown Castle. Tickets are on sale now. If you want it shorter for the main description field, here’s a two-line version: A light-hearted Would You Rather that turns into big questions about the future, regrets, and being right versus being happy. Plus the soul habit we’re craving back, and your homework: a makeup bag audit. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Sorry this one is a week late. Sinéad had a week of it, so we're blaming her. This week: money blocks, getting out of your own way, and a listener asks what to do when her in-laws talk about her behind her back. Plus your homework: who's really sitting by your fire? Tickets for our live event on 8 November are in the link below.
Why Manifesting Isn't Working for You The beliefs quietly blocking what you say you want
This week: a sold-out Reiki retreat to Mary Magdalene country in France, a nasty Instagram comment that sparks a rant on men policing women's bodies, the Sydney Sweeney sports ad backlash, and Mary McAleese stepping down from the GAA-LGFA-Camogie integration committee over unequal pay. The hosts talk patriarchy, women undermining each other, and why progress on gender equality feels stuck. Plus a nostalgia round on 90s snacks and TV, and homework to actually phone a friend this week. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
