    When Staying Silent Isn't a option

    18/2/2026 | 27 mins.
    This week on It Is What It Is, things get very real.

    Aisling, known to her 140k plus followers as the girl who never entertains
    negativity, finally speaks about something she has stayed silent on for a long time.
    After becoming the subject of a major discussion on Tattle Life, she felt she had no
    choice but to address it. She opens up about how damaging these forums can be,
    the rumours that were circulating, and how it actually feels to see your name
    picked apart online.

    Katie shares her perspective on how harsh and damning these spaces can be for
    this generation. As someone nearing 40, she admits she finds the fake pages and
    anonymous discussions hard to process, and questions how a teenager is
    expected to cope with that level of scrutiny.

    The conversation goes deeper into the psychology behind fake accounts on
    TikTok, why people feel the need to hide in order to criticise or tear someone
    down, and what that says about online culture today.
    Most importantly, Katie and Aisling offer honest advice on how to navigate being
    talked about online, how to protect your mental health, and how to stay grounded
    when your name is being discussed by strangers.

    It is open, reflective, uncomfortable at times, but necessary.

    Lets Talk About Sex

    11/2/2026 | 33 mins.
    Katie and Aisling are back with episode six of It Is What It Is and this one starts with a listener’s message that opens a much bigger conversation.

    What begins with a chat about orgasms quickly turns into an honest, funny and at times eye opening discussion about sex, relationships and the things we were never really taught growing up. Along the way, the girls share some of their own personal stories, the awkward bits included.

    They touch on pleasure, communication and the lasting impact of growing up in a Catholic era where sex was often surrounded by shame and silence. There are laughs, a few surprises and some seriously interesting stats thrown into the mix too.

    You might laugh, you might cringe, but you might also take a lot from today’s episode.

    As always, it is real, relatable and unfiltered.

    Story Time

    04/2/2026 | 35 mins.
    Katie and Aisling are back with a brand new episode of It Is What It Is.

    In this week’s episode, the girls get chatting about psychic mediums and the experiences that left them questioning what is real and what is coincidence. They each share very different stories from their past, and from those stories the conversation naturally turns into advice and reflections on what has worked for them through different stages of life.

    As always, the chat is honest, open, blending personal experiences with practical takeaways and real talk.

    Pay Attention To Actions Not Words

    28/1/2026 | 45 mins.
    Episode 4 begins with a message from a listener struggling in her relationship.

    Katie and Aisling open up about relationships in all their forms. The healthy ones, the difficult but fixable ones, and the ones that slowly become toxic. They touch on gaslighting, coercive control, breadcrumbing, and the moments where self doubt creeps in.

    They also share parts of their own past relationships, talk about what children witness in unhealthy dynamics, and why learning to be alone can be powerful. Heavy at times, honest throughout, and balanced with plenty of laughs.

    If you’ve ever questioned your relationship, this episode is for you.

    A Listener's Message

    21/1/2026 | 40 mins.
    In Episode 3 of It Is What It Is, Katie and Aisling return with another honest conversation shaped by a message from one of their listeners.

    That message opens the door to discussions around taking the break you need, breaking the cycle, and questioning the expectations placed on us. Aisling shares a deeply emotional reflection on how far she has come, and what it means to choose a different path after being told she never would.

    Different topics, real emotion, and conversations that stay with you. If you are liking or loving It Is What It Is, do not forget to rate, review, and subscribe.
