Unhinged with Phoebe Parsons

Thou shalt remember, to discard everything in life that no longer brings you joy  Whether it's old clothes, toxic relationships or the biggest of all, the bathroom cupboards, that are generally packed to the rafters with 347 half empty fake tan bottles - nothing feels better than spring cleaning your life of the things that no longer serve a purpose. While these kinds of culls are usually res...

Hello and welcome back to fast fire Friday... Yes, that's right slay kings and kweens, for those of you who missed the news, from now on I'll be releasing not one, but two episodes every single week. In addition to Train Wreck Tuesdays, you'll now also be getting Fast Fire Fridays (FFF for short) because what's better than one episode a week? Two episodes a week... duh!   This week, I chatted...

Thou shalt remember, that what doesn't kill you, gives you content    When it comes to careers, each of us possess a very specific skills set that complements our chosen profession. For some, like lawyers, it's negotiation and persuasion. For others, like doctors, it's practical skill and ability to work under pressure. And then for us... creative broadcasters and content creators, it's...

Ola and welcome to the very first fast fire Friday... Yes, that's right slay kings and kweens, from now on I'll be releasing not one, but two episodes every single week. In addition to Train Wreck Tuesdays, you'll now also be getting Fast Fire Fridays (FFF for short) because what's better than one episode a week? Two episodes a week... duh!  The Functional Nurse:  https://www.instagram.c...

Thou Shalt remember that glowing skin is always in When it comes to skincare, I'm definitely not the same girl I was 12-months ago... and might I just say, a freakin' men.   The Functional Nurse:  https://www.instagram.com/the_functional_nurse/?hl=en https://www.thefunctionalnurse.blog/

Thou shalt remember, treat 'em mean, keep 'em keen  When it comes to self-help books, there are very few proverbial stones I've left unturned. On my quest to try and rerail the life I've spent the last 29 years derailing, I've turned to help from the literary likes of The Secret, The Barefoot Investor, The Subtle Art of not Giving a...., The Life Changing Magic of Not Giving a...... (it's low...

RECORDED LIVE at Melbourne Comedy Festival 2019 Thou shalt remember, that if you're going to suffer the guilt, make sure you enjoy the pleasure. When it comes to pleasures, I've come to realise that we tend separate them into two very distinct categories. Our pleasures, and our guilty pleasures. Our pleasures are those things we talk about openly and passionately, in a boarder line brag-worthy way...

**DISCLAIMER** This episode contains content around food and restriction, that may be triggering. When it comes to diets, I've never met one I haven't dabbled in. From Paleo, Keto and Atkins, right through to Lemon Detox, Celebrity Slim and Skinny Teas, I've been there, done that, worn the consequences. Like, I was so committed to that diet life, that I even made up my own as I revealed wayyy back...

Thou shalt remember, that in the world where everyone is overexposed, the coolest thing you can do is maintain an air of mystery. If that really is true, then I'm officially the most uncool person in Australia... if not the entire universe. I've literally made a living off overexposing the trials and tribulations faced by the twenty something, but you know what? I'm not mad about it. But in an eff...

Thou shalt remember, money talks... but all mine ever says is goodbye. If you're like me and stuck somewhere between, god I really need to save some money and you only live once, don't worry, you're the opposite of alone. I'm the girl who'll spend $80 on pre-workout, but cancel an online order because it incurred a $5 shopping fee. The girl who'll spend $26 on a salad for lunch, but will buy my bi...

Thou shalt remember, that great things don't happen by accident... they happen by appointment. When it comes to schedules, I understand more than most, the perils of trying to fit everything in. I'm the girl who severely overcommits, eternally double books, and consequently, often find my rescheduling or rain checking... But in the last 12 months, there are a few things - 5 to be exact - that I wi...

Thou Shalt Remember, that first impressions don't get second chances  Three of the most important lessons my mum ever taught me were... don't wear black and navy together, never chase after a bus, train or a man, and don't judge a book by it's cover. Admittedly, I've made a few questionable fashion choices and chased more than a few buses and boys in my time - cringe. But I can honestly say t...

Thou Shalt Remember to eat, sleep, slay, repeat. According to the dictionary... well like, the urban dictionary, a slay kween is "Someone who is full of confidence and fire, and stands out from the crowd. Yasssss kweeeeen, slayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. You guys know, that slay kween is probably one of my most used phrases... it's pretty up there with plot twist, and the infamous... okay so. So this week,...

Thou shalt remember, that when women support other women, incredible things happen.  When it comes to friends, I hit the girl gang jackpot.  I'm the first to admit, that signing up to a friendship with me is definitely not for the faint hearted. If you don't like drama, you need not apply.  I'm not the easiest, calmest or most low maintenance girl in the gang (sorry squad). But thro...

Thou shalt remember, that a man is not a financial plan . When it comes to finances, I'm not exactly the thriftiest penny in the piggy bank.  But prepare to be shooketh, because I'm about to give you an economic education, PP style. That's right queens, new year, new bank account... who dis?

Thou shalt remember, that the key to a woman's heart, is hidden in her playlist   It's far from a secret that I love a good playlist. You guys already know, that in an attempt to turn my life into the musical I so desperately wish it was, I have a carefully curated playlist for any and every mood. But none, and I mean none, even slightly measure up to my new favourite playlist of all time.&nb...

Thou shalt remember, there is no breakthrough, without a breakdown.    Guys, I've decided to kick season 7 off with an impromptu pop quiz. What do me and Demi Lovato have in common? I mean truth be told, it would probably be a whole lot quicker to talk about what we don't have in common (hint - it's our salaries). Yes we both have daddy issues, yes we both have a passion for performing a...

Thou shalt remember that time flies when you're being a trainwreck If 2018 was a person, she'd be Felicia... Byeeeee Felicia.  There was heart break, iTunes chart break, spring break and big career breaks... so I decided that my Christmas gift to you, is to take a look back at the funniest, craziest and most train wreckiest moments of 2018...

Thou shalt remember that some things fall apart, so that better things can come together  I mean, that's what I've been telling myself - but not even positive affirmations are enough to make my current situation any easier.

Thou shalt remember, to always surround yourself with people who know you better than you know yourself.    If Paris and Nicole taught us anything, it's the significance of a BFF. The ones who will deliver you acai bowls in bed when you're too hungover to move, the ones who will adopt you on Christmas when you've been orphaned by your family and the ones who will sit on stage with you at...

Thou shalt remember, that the best lessons in life, are the ones you haven't learnt yet...   In my life, I can confidently say I've learnt plenty of lessons. Some I've learnt myself...  Some I've learnt from others... And some, I've learnt from the professionals... And those are the ones I'm going to pass onto you today...

Thou shalt remember that gratitude is the best attitude    Just like activated charcoal, turmeric and oil pulling, gratitude is a practice that's currently trending in the wellness world. But unlike swishing coconut oil in my mouth for 20 minutes, or massaging charcoal onto my face, this is a trend I think I can actually get on board with. But I'm not doing it alone, obviously. Hey Meg,...

Thou shalt remember, that your best teacher is your last mistake... unless you make it again If mistakes were like martial arts, I'd have a black belt. They say when you make a mistake, there are three things you should do about it. Admit it, learn from it, and don't repeat it. I've got the admission part down pat - heck, I should change the name of this podcast to confessions of an unashamed mist...

Thou shalt remember that my advice, is never to listen to my advice... Okay, that was a bit harsh, but here's a analogy I prepared earlier. My advice is best served like tequila... take it with a grain of salt. Despite very publicly confessing my biggest shortcomings week after week, I'm 90% flattered and 10% flabbergasted that you guys still slide into my DM's to seek my inexpert advice. Honestly...

Thou shalt remember, that the S in PMS stands for satan, not syndrome.    While I'm no doctor, there are a few basic medical rules I have pretty down pat. Feed a fever, starve a cold, and give PMS whatever the hell it wants. And just to be on the safe side, probably make sure that it's also dipped in chocolate.
