S02 E03 Iso-Diaries: "I'm bored out of my f***ing brain"

Harness is back! Welcome to isolation... we are exploring how people are harnessing this unique time of COVID-19 and whether (or not) they are coping. In this episode, we bring our usual 'good and bad' news items to the table and hear from friends and followers of the podcast about how they're finding lockdown. We also chat to Annaliese Dent (podcaster, writer and Rafiki Mwema ambassador) who gives a funny and honest account of how extroverts all around the world right now are STRUGGLING. If you want to get in touch, please email us at projectharness@gmail.com, feel free to send over a voice note with how you are passing the time (a template for this is available on our Instagram if you are stuck). You can follow Annaliese at @annaliesedent. Annaliese has been doing regular Instagram live interviews with psychologists covering a range of topics and offering helpful advice to get you through this odd time. Divorce Story is Annaliese's latest podcast, which she co-hosts with Cass Thorburn. Divorce story is about re-launching your life after divorce and is available now on the Apple podcast app, or wherever you usually listen.
