This Will Get Messy

Welcome back to This Will Get Messy.
Mars’ moods are up and down at work and she’s willing herself to be patient. Meanwhile, Roberto is encouraging his Dad to be more active and is the latest to join in on the paddle craze.
Today Roberto is centering the conversation around labels and their place in modern society. There are so many labels in today’s world: we are talking, gender, single, married, parent, and the list goes on. Tune in as your hosts talk about the lack of productive discussions from those who think differently, lengthy instagram bios, the ability to be anything you want alongside the chance to knuckle down and focus on one thing, nationality as part of your identity, how we think other people label us, discrimination based on labels, comfort in labels and community, and who are we without our labels.

We hope that you enjoyed listening to this episode! As a new podcast we are reliant on word of mouth to reach new listeners. If you like what you hear, we’d appreciate if you follow us wherever you get your podcasts, review and rate us, share with a friend, and get in touch via our socials.
If you don’t, drop us a DM with your thoughts and maybe we will include you in our own segment of “Mean Tweets”.

See you next Monday!

Self-Worth: Why is our worth so tied to productivity and money?

Welcome back to This Will Get Messy.
Roberto is readjusting to manual driving back home whilst Mars reminisces about driving in Jeju Korea, but mostly they’re just celebrating that their podcast baby has officially gone live!
Today Mars is centring the conversation around the way we’ve been socialised to tie our sense of worth to productivity and making money. We’ve all procrastinated and know how crap it can feel. Tune in as your hosts talk feeling good when busy and bad when idle, hustle culture, investing in yourself and time off, and defining your own success to emancipate from the demands of productivity.

Expectations: Why are we searching for one partner when we have multiple needs?

Welcome back to This Will Get Messy.
This past week Roberto voted for the first time in his life in Venezuela’s recent elections whilst both him and Mars have been getting some inspiration from the incredible athletes competing in the Olympics.
Today your hosts are talking about the unrealistic expectations we tend to place on one person, our romantic partners. We usually don’t fulfil all our social needs through one friend so why do we expect so much from our partner? If our community was stronger would we de-centre romantic relationships more?
