In this episode of Real Talk Podcast, hosts Pippa, Hayley, Lorraine, and Siobhan dive deep into the emotional, practical, and spiritual sides of what it means to live with intention and make your life count.
Titled around the popular but often shallowly used acronym YOLO (You Only Live Once), this discussion turns the phrase on its head, offering soul-stirring reflections on mortality, purpose, and the uncomfortable truth that time waits for no one. Through personal stories, health scares, lifestyle audits, and wake-up calls, the ladies unpack how to break free from autopilot living, realign with your values, and pursue the life you truly desire.
Whether you're feeling stuck in survival mode, disconnected from your purpose, or simply craving more meaning in your days, this episode will challenge you to reclaim your time, prioritise joy, and start taking action today.
