In this episode, join us for a catch up as we talk about our summers and unexpected life things that meant we had an unplanned hiatus from the pod! Topics include being slight summer haters (sorry!!!) and welcoming autumn with open arms, the best books we’ve read recently, and general chit chat about life lately.
