The Wingwoman 2.10 Happy hug week, tutti fruity nail polish and the dangerous rise of post-pandemic diet pressure
This week Charlie gets back on the IRL dating scene and Frankie has a panicky yoga class while wondering whether her sudden passion for tie dye and pastel nail polish is signalling an early midlife crisis.
We examine the rise of toxic post-pandemic diet culture and discuss whether the government's plan to put calorie counts on restaurant menus will do more harm than good. Plus we share the articles, TV shows and virtual festivals that have caught our attention.
