If you’re a user of social media, whether Instagram, Twitter or LinkedIn you’ll have seen the work of today’s guest.

Liz Fosslien is half of Liz and Mollie whose perceptive dissections of contemporary anxieties have won hundreds of thousands of fans. Liz talks through her process of creating these atoms of insight and how the response from viewers inspired them to write a new book about how to cope with the major emotions in our lives.

You can follow Liz and Mollie on social media – or buy their new book Big Feelings here.
