We've got a new bombshell this week on Love Island Australia, with Miss New Zealand AKA Sammi! She seems lovely but a bunch of the girls are immediately rude to her for no reason :( Finishing off week 2 strong with more insecurities, a questionable hook-up, a little bit of gaslighting, but also some fabulous conflict resolution so that's something!

Abbie got up at 6am to catch up on Love Island and although we're not at Real Housewives or MAFS levels of drama, things are starting to heat up!! We've got LYING WEIRD MEN, women tearing each other down and insulting each other's appearance, plus jealousy and emotional suppression! WOOHOO! Also, enjoy some deep epiphanies from Amy and Abbie about how the microcosms of reality TV reflect and accentuate heterosexual societal norms tee heeLINKS:Send us your thoughts, topic suggestions, NMFs and more: https://forms.gle/S5Pf327SmVnnC8CE9Follow It's A Lot on socials (we now have video eps on YouTube!) https://linktr.ee/itsalotpodReview the podcast on Apple Podcasts https://bit.ly/ial-reviewCREDITS Host: Abbie Chatfield @abbiechatfieldExecutive Producer and Editor: Amy Kimball @amy.kimballIt's A Lot Social Media Manager: Julia ToomeySocial Media and Marketing Strategist: Elizabeth Baxter

ABBIE GOT HYPNOTISED!! She gives Amy a play-by-play of what happened, including some very strange side-effects on the woman hypnotising her (that were actually really helpful for unmasking??). Abbie also reflects on why conventional talk therapy has not always worked for her, how the session helped her approach catastrophizing, hypervigilance, and feeling unsafe in a different way.LINKS:Send us your thoughts, topic suggestions, NMFs and more: https://forms.gle/S5Pf327SmVnnC8CE9Follow It's A Lot on socials (video eps now on YouTube!) https://linktr.ee/itsalotpodReview the podcast on Apple Podcasts https://bit.ly/ial-reviewCREDITSHost: Abbie Chatfield @abbiechatfieldExecutive Producer and Editor: Amy Kimball @amy.kimballIt's A Lot Social Media Manager: Julia ToomeySocial Media and Marketing Strategist: Elizabeth BaxterNote: All advice within this podcast is general, and does not take into account your personal situation.

Abbie is joined by friend of the show Harri James discuss the use of Amy Acton’s childhood sexual abuse in a political ad during Ohio’s governor’s race. Drawing on Harry’s own experience as a survivor, they examine the harm caused when trauma is turned into campaign ammunition, the hypocrisy in the reaction from Republicans to the backlash, and the barriers misogynistic abuse creates for women in public life.LINKSBuy Harri's book Transform Your Pain Into Purpose: https://www.simonandschuster.com.au/books/Transform-Your-Pain-into-Purpose/Harrison-James/9781923293892Follow Harri on IG @itsharrijamesFollow It's A Lot on socials (video eps now on YouTube!) https://linktr.ee/itsalotpodCheck out @itsalotpod on IG at https://bit.ly/itsalot-instagram .Review the podcast on Apple Podcasts https://bit.ly/ial-reviewCREDITS Host: Abbie Chatfield @abbiechatfield Guest: Harrison James @itsharrijamesExecutive Producer and Editor: Amy Kimball @amy.kimballIt's A Lot Social Media Manager: Julia ToomeySocial Media and Marketing Strategist: Elizabeth Baxter
