Double D's Episode 23: Judge Judy, The Loner & A Whole Lot of Truth

Double D's Episode 23: Judge Judy, The Loner & A Whole Lot of Truth

Episode 23 of Double D’s Live Podcast marked the start of a different chapter—and what a way to kick it off! This week, Muireann was joined by her first guest co-host, the brilliant Sonya (aka The Loner / Pigeon), for a conversation that was equal parts hilarious, honest, and surprisingly relatable.

If this is what the new co-host era looks like, we are all in!


⚖️ Work-Life Balance… Or Something Like It

This week’s theme centred around the ever-elusive concept of work-life balance—or more accurately, the messy pursuit of it.

Muireann (Judge Judy) and Sonya shared how they’re each trying (and sometimes failing) to put boundaries in place, define success on their own terms, and figure out what “balance” actually means in real life—not just in glossy motivational quotes.

The question was simple but powerful:
Can you sit with your thoughts for five minutes and feel comfortable?
Not as easy as it sounds…


🔁 Life Shifts & Not-So-Scary Change

Sonya opened up in a truly honest segment about what it means to change direction in life—whether by choice, chance, or necessity.

From letting go of old routines to challenging what we think we “should” be doing, her reflections were refreshingly real. Change doesn’t have to be terrifying—it can be the very thing that sets you free.


😂 Giggles, Truths & Tomato Sauce?!

No Double D’s episode is complete without a bit of chaos, and this one delivered.

We wrapped up with our quick-fire questions segment, which revealed some truly surprising answers—including an unexpected fear of tomato sauce. (We’re still not over it.)
