In this bonus episode, Lizzie and I speak about the pins and needles caused by the social concept of 'cool'. From aloof antisocial behaviour, perceived social statuses, censoring oneself, to warm and natural connection, we reflect on the liberation of the self and how progress is never made when everyone maintains the status quo.

Under a brilliant blue sky, Ana and I speak about the pins and needles of feeling not good enough. From intentional self-development, anticipating rejection, the self-consciousness of being both not enough and too much, the conflict between personal choices and everyone else, fluctuations in confidence and positive outlook, to remembering perspective over ego, this is the eleventh and final episode of the first season!

With a breathtaking view before us, Bella and I speak about the pins and needles of itching to take action. From how to move out of a rut, comparison with other people's productivity, scepticism towards creative careers, the place of the arts in society, to self-belief and being honest about hopes, this is the tenth constructive conversation of the series.
