Do you spend too much time on your phone? And would you like to spend LESS time on your phone? Well, this is the episode for you. Abby has a problem and Sofie might also have a problem, if she'd be up for admitting to it. Abby has read Cal Newport's book on Digital Minimalism and is up for the challenge.

We throw ourselves at KC Davies' book How To Keep House While Drowning: A Gentle Approach To Cleaning and Organising.

Oh, it's a Big One. It's finally here. The Artist's Way, read and presented by Abby, who has read it five times and who lives it on a daily basis. It's the Bible of creativity and we're here to discuss it.

A little teaser of our brand new Patreon SPECIAL bonus episode. Sofie has watched Couples Therapy, but first, we get into talking about the apocalypse again. Also, Abby sings. Does she sing well? Time will tell. Listen on Patreon now.

We dive into Kae Tempest's On Connection - a book about connections and the magic that happens when connection happens and other stuff to do with connection. (Sofie writes these blurbs and there is a chance Sofie didn't fully understand what the book was about.) We also discuss weddings and creativity. It's fun.MAIN SOURCEOn Connection by Kae TempestALSO MENTIONEDSelf Compassion by Kristin NeffMicro Moments of Positivity Resonance by Dr. Barbara Fredrickson

It's another little teaser. On Patreon, you can find the full episode (and you can watch the episode too, on video!), where, still at Sofie's place, Abby and Sofie go over some of the inspirational quotes Sofie has saved in her phone. But Abby struggles to get over the fact that Sofie owes her money. It's a very inspirational episode.Patreon is here - sign up for just £3 a month!
