What is Hangxiety?

Vic & Hamish from Sober Awkward

Our friends on will they go sober?

Will people think I’m boring if I don’t drink? 
It’s a question I’ve asked myself a lot and this year I’ve been living a sober curious life because I couldn’t be bothered with hangover anxiety anymore. 

In this episode - without being annoying and preachy - I’ll share my story of why I’ve decided to give up booze (Sorry in advance I get teary) and I chat to guests:

Driiiiiinnnnnk yourself lesssss boooooze

Holy guacamole, as if beauty standards weren’t already cooked, along came Ozempic. 
It feels like out of nowhere this medication that is a miracle for those who need it for legitimate health reasons is now being used by those who don’t need it so they can shed body fat at a rapid pace & it’s terrifying, but has a lot of people (myself included) interested. 
What the F is ozempic? Who needs it? What are the side effects? What does it do? How much does it cost? 
In this episode I interview Johann Hari author of ‘The Magic Pill’ who’s researched Ozempic all over the world but also taken it himself. 
Also joining the chat from a Kiwi perspective my friend Katie and a bunch of amazing wāhine from our Better Me (Hopefully) community share their experiences.

The Skinny on OZEMPIC with Johann Hari

OH LOOK IT’S YOU! HI! I’m Sharyn Casey and this my dear friend, is the show notes of my wee pod. Not vape pod. Podcast.
I used to smoke, social smoker, then vaper, turned vaping every chance I got 

Quitting was SO HARD even talking about it gives me the anxiety, in this episode I tried to learn about vaping as much as I could from a scientific point of view and real life stories. 

Guests - 

Jude Ball, Otago University Professor who’s done extensive research on vaping and what’s coming next

Sin Howard from George FM Drive who’s in the trenches of quitting 

My mates Bri and Mike who have recently stopped vaping. 

We talking about the risks, the joy, the why and how the actual F they managed to quit

From a grape mint vape cloud - The Vaping EP

Hey amazing human (or robot) I’m Sharyn Casey and these are the show notes to my podcast, HURRAH!

I don’t know about you but I feel like I spend A LOT of my time chasing energy, looking for some magical thing that’ll give me energy like a teenager, not crawl out of bed hoping caffeine will save me. 

So how do we get back our energy? 

In this episode I talk to the Author of the book ‘Energy’ Lisa O’Neill about how we can get, guard and give our energy better, you’ll also meet my amazing friend Bex about her experience with hypothyroidism
