About this episode
Have you noticed how certain words just take over?
One minute nobody's saying them, the next minute you can't scroll five posts without tripping over them.
"Kinda Chic" is having a moment right now.
A few years ago it was "authentic," then "curated," then everyone was "manifesting" and living their "high-vibe" life.
Words come in and out of fashion like anything else - and once one catches on, everyone reaches for it, whether it actually fits what they mean or not.
Now, I love words.
Properly love them - it's basically my whole career.
But there are four words that, despite my love affair with language, you will never hear come out of my mouth. Not because I'm precious about grammar, but because I genuinely don't buy into what they represent, and I get a full visceral reaction every time I hear them.
In this episode I'm taking you through my four - and fair warning, one of them might be a bit controversial, so if it annoys you, I actually love that for you.
But this isn't really about my four words. It's about you noticing the word you reach for on repeat, the one that might be quietly letting you off a hook without you even realising it.
