Welcome to Keep Her Lit!
This month, it’s Rosie’s last recording in Dublin before she packs her bags for a year in Galway. On that note, we’re talking about the work that goes into sustaining a friendship and figuring out how to find the joy amongst all the stressful moments.
Plus a brief flirtation with a keto diet (keto... it’s not me, it’s you), the real meaning of the world “cosy” and why we can’t stop talking about Booksmart.

Welcome to Keep Her Lit! We're Rosie Plunkett and Paula Lyne. We like to talk. A lot. And we hope the things that fill us up will spark something in you too.
This month... when the intention you set is to do things with intention, how does that play itself out IRL? Plus Paula has *questions* about pubic hair grooming, and Rosie's been struggling with sticking to the homework on her mindfulness course (brushing your teeth mindfully is tough, y'all).
Each month, we'll be setting our intention for the month ahead, and bringing you a joyous mix of body talk, book talk, TV talk and everything else talk.
