| 19 Jul 2021 | S1E1: COVID "Normal" Is Anything But Normal | 00:43:16 | |
Welcome to You're Doing Great Sweetie, the podcast that's like an audio hug. For our first episode, we're talking COVID. The virus that upended our world and changed everything. Now we're adjusting to it - what is COVID "Normal"? As parts of Australia enter another major lockdown, life is anything but consistent. We talk mental health, that weird pressure to do EVERYTHING in a period of mental exhaustion, and feeling claustrophobic in a borders-closed country. Join our community, sweetie!

| 19 Jul 2021 | S1E2: Sustainability, Meet Our Online Shopping Obsession | 00:54:00 | |
We're big on sustainability - this planet needs our help, and over-consumption is a huge factor when it comes to adding more crap to landfill. But... we can't stop buying clothes. In this episode, we chat online shopping, the unhealthy connection of mood and adding to cart, decisions we've made to curb our consumerism, buying 20 pairs of trackpants because they're being discontinued, and Josie's hack for avoiding stupid spending.

| 19 Jul 2021 | S1E3: When Your Libido Goes AWOL | 00:41:11 | |
Oh my god, we're already at a sex episode! This ep, we're chatting all things libido - normalising the ebbs and flows, the weird pressure we put on ourselves to be having sex all the time, how a bowl of buttery mash potato and a new season on Bridgerton is kinda better than (most) sex anyway, and getting back in the sack after pushing a child out of your uterus.

| 26 Jul 2021 | S1E4: A Love/Hate Relationship With Booze | 00:38:45 | |
In lockdown it feels like everyone is either a) attempting to do it sober or b) drinking more to get through it, so in this ep we chat about our own changing relationships with alcohol over the years, changes we've made to our habits during locky d, and reflect on Australian drinking culture as a whole (and how it can be tough to cut out booze completely).

| 02 Aug 2021 | S1E5: Give Us A Vax For Comparison-itis | 00:50:58 | |
Nothing is more contagious than comparison syndrome (or as Mel calls it in this ep, comparison-itis) - you basically catch it every time you go on Instagram. Mel and Josie chat about the type of content that sees them falling deep into the comparison trap and share some methods they use to snap out of it. Join our community, sweetie!

| 09 Aug 2021 | S1E6: How To Make Friends When You're A Grown-Up | 00:55:57 | |
When you're a kid, making new friends is easy. It's usually whoever sits next to you in class, maybe also whoever isn't being the school bully. But once you hit adulthood, it's SERIOUSLY tough. This ep, we discuss our own attempts at making adult friends (we've had to do it a LOT), can you Instagram DM your way to friendship, and how to even meet new people in the first place.

| 22 Aug 2021 | S1E7: Postponed Weddings & Lockdown Flatness with Laura Henshaw | 00:47:45 | |
Our first guest! For this episode we invited all-round angel and co-founder of health & fitness app Keep It Cleaner, Laura Henshaw, on for a chat. From that flat feeling extended lockdowns have brought many Australians to "COVID disappointments" like postponing your wedding five times, Laura breaks down what's helped her get through some tough times over the past couple of years - and we chat about how it's okay to be upset about the trivial stuff, even if you're thankful about the bigger stuff. Plus she used to be a DJ so we of course discussed the best/worst tracks of the 00s. Check out Keep It Cleaner here. Join our community, sweetie!

| 05 Sep 2021 | S1E9: Life Is Just Cooking Dinner Every Night Until You Die | 00:35:19 | |
If there's one task that makes life feel tedious (besides cleaning the toot), it's making dinner. From finding ways to jazz up tired recipes, to cooking on a budget, it's just an exhausting, frustrating process that we're frankly over, big time. But unless you're J.Lo and can afford a private chef (please, god) it's a huge part of life - and annoyingly, still kind of falls to the women a lot of the time. This ep is basically just us whinging about cooking, cleaning up after cooking, kids that hate our cooking and us begging you for new recipes. Join our community, sweetie!

In the second part of our solo sesh's, Mel's talking about her ten years as a Pentecostal Christian - worship leader, youth leader, and an entire life that revolved around God, but also church and the church community. How do you extricate yourself from what's become your entire life? And where does that faith go? Join our community, sweetie!

| 28 Jan 2022 | S2E2: Love Bombing And The Chaos Of Dating Right Now | 00:45:25 | |
Love bombing has been the dating term of 2022 thanks to the now-viral 'The Movie Star & Me' Medium story by Domenica Feraud. But what does love bombing look like in general dating culture? We argue that it's not always a conscious manipulation tactic - but it still sucks to be on the receiving end. Also, fake tattoos! Corn chip obsession! Talking incessantly about someone who burned you over a year ago on multiple podcast platforms! Mel is basically Taylor Swift (podcast version). Hosted on Acast.

But in 2022, they've lost interest - and they're wondering why. Expect chats about the ethics of watching people get totally humiliated on national TV, to whether Insta-fame has ruined the "realness" of these shows (or contributed to their success?)
