Life has a habit of interrupting your plans — sometimes quietly, sometimes all at once. And you don’t always want advice or answers, you just want to know you’re not the only one trying to make sense of it.
Life Happens* is a weekly lifestyle podcast built around honest conversation. Psychology student Michelle R Williams and media veteran Nick Hirst come together from two very different generations to talk about modern life as it’s actually lived — with uncertainty, confusion, hopes and ambitions along the way.
With warmth, banter, humanity and insight, they don’t pretend to have it all figured out, instead they explore how it feels when life doesn’t go as planned.
Because life happens*
*but you can too!
