This week has been horrible, it really has.

I'm sorry, but we have more sad news to share. Thank you for being here and letting us talk about it.

We also share the difficulties of being able to rest. I for one, struggle to differentiate between work and rest, and as I made this episode, I realised that I might be using the excuse of "but I LOVE to create" to distract myself from grief. 

Either that or I'm a workaholic.

The truth is, I'm scared of dropping the balls that I've spent years learning to juggle. If this sounds like you, I think you'll enjoy this episode.

This is such a fascinating topic, and I intend to write about it in-depth (obviously not when I'm supposed to be resting with Brian...) for my private newsletter readers.

You can sign up for that newsletter here.

For now, please enjoy this episode and thank you again for being you. I love and appreciate you.

You might think from the title It's a Drama Podcast that you're in for some heavy theatrics, but it's actually the opposite. Hosted by world traveller and best-selling comedy author Liz Deacle alongside her husband Brian, this is a space for the gloriously unfiltered and often hilarious conversations that happen between two people sharing a life and a suitcase. Each episode feels like pulling up a chair at their kitchen table, where the topics roam freely from travel mishaps and cultural observations to the everyday dramas of family, food, and navigating the second half of life with a sense of humor. Liz and Brian’s candid dynamic is the heart of the podcast, offering a blend of laughter and genuine honesty that makes the personal feel universal. You’ll find yourself in the middle of stories that are both frank and funny, often accompanied by the clink of a wine glass and the admission that adulthood isn't always a dignified affair. It’s less about destination and more about the messy, joyful, and relatable journey, making this a uniquely comforting listen for anyone who appreciates real conversation served with a generous side of comedy.
