Episode Synopsis

Splitting a bill is an inevitable occurrence when out socialising, so why can it feel so awkward and transactional? 
In this episode, we dive into Christabel Mintah-Galloway's thought provoking post titled Is splitting the lunch bill down to the cent keeping us from real connection? We unpack how our own money stories - from childhood influences to cultural cues - and explore how they shape the way we navigate shared costs. We also reflect on how the rise of social media has raised the stakes of socialising, and why creating low pressure environments might be the key to feel truly connected again.
