Talk About It

How often do you give one tiny interaction the power to ruin your entire day? In this episode of Through Scarlett’s Eyes , we talk about why we let other people’s moods, opinions and behaviour affect us long after the moment has passed, and how to stop giving them that power. But it’s not just about the negative. We can become just as dependent on other people’s attention, approval and validation....

In this episode of Through Scarlett’s Eyes , I’m joined by my uni friend for a relaxed conversation where we put our opinions (and each other) to the test. Through two segments, “What Would You Do If…?” and “Who’s More Likely To?” , we tackle a mix of hypothetical situations and questions that reveal how differently (or similarly) we see things. Along the way, we challenge each other’s assumptions...

In today's episode, I share with you a simple list I created to help me feel more motivated, improve my mood, and take better care of my overall health and wellbeing. This list came after several months of spending far too much time bed rotting and doomscrolling. I reached a point where I realised I wanted more for myself. I didn't need a complete life overhaul or an unrealistic routine, I...

In this episode, we are revisiting my craziest stories from semester one of university. I’ve only lived here for a few months and have already witnessed some bizarre things.

Welcome to Through Scarlett's Eyes.

Perfectionism is exhausting, to tell you the truth. I mean, being goal-driven to do everything to the best of your ability is a great quality to have, but it becomes unhealthy when being an overachiever starts to drain you and makes you feel burnt out for no good reason. And so in this episode I am going to tell you all about what perfectionism even is, my experiences as a perfectionist, and how I...

Today we are talking about that confusing and kinda soul-crushing moment when someone disappears without a word or explanation. And we call this Ghosting. We are unpacking the initial feelings and response to getting ghosted, why people do it, and how to cope. A lack of emotional maturity and the inability to communicate is a reflection of who the "ghoster" is.

This week, I’m recording from a whole new environment… literally. I travelled 5 hours to my university campus, swapped my laptop screen for a real-life classroom, met my lecturers and peers in person, and followed a set schedule. It was a total shift from my usual online routine. In this episode, I’m reflecting on the differences between online and on-campus university life. What works, what doesn...

Join me for a light-hearted talk about breakups and how to process every...

It could be risky to talk about this topic, but it's one I've been thinking about for a while now. Cheaters. We hear the word cheater and immediately think so little of the person at fault. But today's episode is a lesson for not only you, but also myself, which is to not be so quick to judge when you hear someone has cheated. As a society, we need to dive deeper, and think about whether the act w...

Professional bonds are necessary for productivity in the workplace (in my opinion), but not everyone, including my past self, understands that you do not have to be best friends with your coworkers. There is a difference between being friends and being "friendly".

19 is an extremely pivotal time in your life where you experience newfound independence and make crucial life choices.  Who we are vs who people want us to be: Our independent journey is inevitably complex.

This episode slightly diverts from the serious content that we usually hear. Instead, I am embracing my current feelings of bitterness and irritation to complain about all of my biggest pet peeves, so that I can leave these feelings behind. If you click on this episode, prepare to feel just as annoyed as I do when I talk about slow walkers, loud slurpers, flaky friends, people who are constantly n...
