Shireen Z
You've Zoom-called 9 of your friends, done 3 Instagram workouts and worked your way through the entire back catalogue of Netflix. Now you're bored and looking for something new to distract yourself with. Luckily, Shireen has taken it into her hands to make the podcast literally no one asked for.
Shoestring is a zero-budget (does the name make sense now?) podcast of people in their 20s talking about what it's like to be in your 20s. Featuring my favourite pals.
Confined space, isolation, freezer meals. Is social distancing the perfect training for becoming an astronaut? This week I am joined by Rahul to discuss Baby Yoda, the best celebrity space buddies and whether or not it's worth bringing a piano to the moon.
Unless you're one of the Hadids, you've probably had at least one negative thought about your appearance in your life. In the age of Instagram beauty standards, how can we feel good about ourselves and the way we look? This week I am joined by my pal Esther to discuss social media stress, high school trauma and finding motivation to exercise that extends beyond a waffle-iron set of abs. Featuring more weird transition music! Love that for me.
Welcome to the first episode of Shoestring! I am joined by my good pal Martina to discuss her experience as a Third Culture Kid or international student who has lived 3+ different cultures. From moving to the UK and learning English while at school, to the best aspects of Italian life and the sheer joy that is IKEA, we cover it all.
