Habit Apps, Adulting Wins, and the Great Chip Spill

We’re back! Lydia and Andy are reunited for the first episode in a little while — two former support workers catching up over a cuppa and trying to navigate adulting… although Andy immediately loses his drink, so we’re starting strong.

In this episode we chat about New Year’s resolutions (yes, it’s March — yes, we’re still doing it), why they can put way too much pressure on us, and why reflection and realistic goals are often a better shout than the classic “new year, new me” panic.

We also hand out Gold Stars for adulting wins — including Lydia’s big move to Paignton, and Andy’s genuinely brilliant solution to losing his inhaler: an AirTag and a bit of Blu Tack. Problem solved. Probably. Unless the AirTag becomes the new thing that goes missing…

A few things we mention in this episode include:

The Hero App : https://tryhero.app/

Finch App (habit + wellbeing support): https://finchcare.com/
(A goal for 2026: use it 90% of the year 👀)

And because it wouldn’t be What’s the Tea? without it… Weird News is back:

• Thousands of bags of chips washing up on a beach near Eastbourne (salted by the sea… served with sand?)

• And the Oxford word of the year: “rage-bait” — content designed to wind people up for clicks
