In the United Kingdom there appears to be a roadmap towards the end of lockdown and the world is looking at the end of the pandemic.

In this episode we talk about our personal experience of the different lockdowns in the UK, Portugal and Italy over the course of the last year, with particular emphasis on what they have learned of value to take into life after lockdown.

We explore what we have learned about ourselves, what helped us cope, the difference between lockdown one and two and what's working for us now.

Finally, we discuss our hopes for the new normal, what we are going to leave behind in the old normal, and leave you with some top tips for getting through the rest of lockdown and how to enter post pandemic life in the best possible mindset.

"Self acceptance - be patient and compassionate with yourself, I have experienced so much self-judgement about struggling,  about not being ok. Finding love and compassion for ourselves is so important, it's ok to not be ok. love yourself on your worst days as you can on your best days". Kezra

"I learnt a lot during lockdown , forgiving myself, learning to love myself, to treat myself better and not be as critical of myself as I used to be, the first lockdown was a massively transformative period for me". Ian
