Christmas can be magical — but it can also be complicated. In this special holiday episode, Linh and Lara talk about what the Christmas season really brings up for them: joy and nostalgia, but also pressure, expectations, guilt, loneliness, and the quiet moments in between.

They reflect on childhood memories, family dynamics, traditions that still feel comforting (and the ones that don’t), and how their relationship with Christmas has changed over the years. From navigating time with family to creating new rituals that actually feel good, this episode is an honest conversation about honoring your needs during the holidays.

Whether you love Christmas, struggle with it, or feel a bit of both — this episode is a reminder that there’s no “right” way to do the holidays. You’re allowed to slow down, set boundaries, and make space for whatever you’re feeling.

Guilt sneaks into our lives in so many subtle ways — from saying no, to resting, to not meeting expectations (our own or everyone else’s). In this episode, Linh and Lara get honest about the different kinds of guilt they carry: guilt for taking breaks, guilt for putting themselves first, guilt for not being “enough,” and even guilt rooted in childhood and family dynamics.

They explore why guilt shows up so quickly, how it’s tied to identity and belonging, and why so many of us feel responsible for things that were never ours to carry. Together, they unpack people-pleasing, overthinking, boundary-setting, and the stories we tell ourselves when we think we’re letting someone down.

This episode is a gentle reminder that guilt is human — but it doesn’t have to run your life.

If you’ve ever felt guilty for simply being who you are, this one’s for you.

Season 2 starts with a confession: this summer did not go the way we planned.

Some things were beautiful, some were weirdly emotional, and some were “this is all too much” moments.

In this episode, we talk about:

* The plot twists we didn’t see coming

* The small moments that changed us

* Why summer can feel both freeing and overwhelming

* What we’re bringing with us into the new season (and what we’re leaving behind)

If your summer wasn’t all sunsets and Aperol — same.

Let’s debrief together. ✨

It’s a wrap on season one! In this final episode, Linh and Lara reflect on the past few months of creating the Full Of It podcast—what it’s taught them, how it’s stretched them, and the unexpected moments of connection along the way. They share their original intentions behind the podcast, what they’ve learned through each conversation, and why they’ve decided to take a summer break. With honesty and love, they talk about the importance of rest, distance, and space to grow—and what might come next after some time to breathe.

What even is fun anymore—and why does it feel so hard to access as an adult? In this episode, Linh and Lara explore their evolving relationship with fun: how they define it now, why it doesn’t come as naturally as it did in childhood, and what actually brings them joy today. They talk about the pressures that make fun feel like a luxury instead of a necessity, the role of choice in creating joyful moments, and what they'd do just for fun if time and money weren’t an issue. It’s a refreshing, honest convo that might just remind you to take life a little less seriously.

What does it really mean to age as a woman in a world obsessed with youth? In this episode, Linh and Lara unpack the beauty standards and cultural messages that shape how we experience getting older—from the meaning behind compliments like “you look so young” to what it actually means to age well. They talk about how taking care of yourself now can shape your future health, the role healing plays in how we feel in our bodies over time, and how seeing their mums grow older has influenced their own perspective on aging. It's a real, thoughtful conversation about beauty, self-worth, and why aging is—truly—a privilege.

Some lessons hit you like a brick, others sneak in quietly and change everything. In this episode, Linh and Lara look back on the life lessons that shaped them—both the beautiful and the brutal. From the patterns that keep repeating to the truths they had to unlearn, they dive into what growth actually looks like when you're in it. Expect honest stories, a few laughs, and the kind of reflections that make you go, “Oof... same.” Whether you’re in the middle of a lesson or just coming out the other side, this one’s for you.

What does it actually mean to be healthy—and who taught us that? In this episode, Linh and Lara dive into their personal definitions of good and bad health, from green juices to comforting habits that don’t always fit the “wellness” mold. They share their own routines (the helpful and the not-so-helpful ones) and unpack how much their upbringing shaped the way they care for themselves today. It’s an honest, thoughtful conversation about unlearning, relearning, and finding your own version of what feeling good really looks like.
