exposing our 2025 ins and outs
“ins and outs” but make them quarterly. no truly, it blew my mind too!sitting across from lottie – the passionate founder of @banish.au – i was in awe of her assuredness and pragmatism. something as simple as putting on an ‘all too well 10 minute version’ timer on a task that i hate made me really reconsider how scheduling (and time in general) can feel super intimidating when it doesn’t need to.in this episode: work-life balance, silly hobbies without goals and our version of emma chamberlain’s anti-gremlin challenge.lil reminder: schedule some time for FUN and trot to Dendy for Night Shift with your pals, fucking interesting films, nightly at nine.this episode of little things was executive produced by alice griffin & jannah anderson, and produced by natasha lal.checking in on you every fortnight 🩵

"I swap house keys with all my closest friends"
how do you cope when you’re really going through it? milo hartill – performer, activist, and the funniest person i’ve chatted to in ages – gets better than most how tricky self-care can be sometimes. in the moments when things become a bit much, they swap judgement for some self-bargaining coping mechanisms that i’m definitely adopting in future. this episode with milo covers SO much — everything from why swapping house keys is the best thing you'll do for your friendships, to what it’s like having a panic attack on the opera house stage (mid-performance omg), and how the global right-wing swing made them fundamentally reconsider how they move through the world. feel better during your busiest periods and sip a lemon lime & bitters thanks to our partner Angostura Bitters 🫧 this episode of little things was executive produced by alice griffin & jannah anderson, and produced by evie georgiou & talecia vescio. checking in on you every fortnight 🩵
from optimising how we sleep to literally everything we do when we’re awake – the way that we care for ourselves has become both a daily practice and a cultural phenomenon.
host @_alicegriffin is joined by an incredible lineup of creatives as they navigate the noise of the self-care economy and uncover why the little things... are actually, kinda the big things.
