Books, podcasts, films, docs and music that saved me in 2020

My last blog post of the year 2020 has been written multiple times and deleted just as many. I wasn’t even sure what I wanted to say about the closing of this bizarre year, nothing makes complete and utter sense to me anymore. But lying in bed last night I thought about all the ways I managed the weirdness, insecurity and uncertainty of 2020 and how I somewhat stayed afloat by distracting myself, learning and unlearning, filling my cup with new information, more knowledge and personal stories.

Mixed Tape: My labour playlists

When the time comes, having the right music available and on hand is very important to me so I made two labour playlists.

Mixed Tape // 3

Yes, it’s been ages since my last mixed tape but I promise this one is a good one. Click play and turn up the volume.

If you can’t listen to this playlist it means you’re not on Spotify. It doesn’t take long to sign up for a Spotify account so go ahead and do it. There’s no reason you shouldn’t if you like music because it’s free and there’s no limit to what you can listen to.
