Instagram | Diet Prada
Having worked in fashion for the majority of my career, Diet Prada is a great source of fashion news and entertainment. A light hearted spin and authentic (albeit behind the scenes) approach to the reality of the creative industry.

Netflix | Gilmore Girls
If you've never seen it, Gilmore Girls is a guilty pleasure dramedy centering around the relationship between a thirtysomething single mother and her teen daughter living in Stars Hollow, Connecticut. Their lives are filled with banter, unique town characters, and the ups and downs of navigating life and relationships. Binge all 7 seasons on Netflix!

Sometimes DEI conversations can be intimidating to approach, and Better Allies provides bitesize tips and educational snippets to help everyone on their personal DEI journey. I find it to be a really useful resource! Follow @BetterAllies on Instagram, Threads, Medium, or X/Twitter

Prime Video | The Handmaid's Tale
Multi-Emmy-winning US drama series set in a dystopian society that treats women as property of the state, forcing many into sexual servitude to repopulate a devastated world. Season 6 is set to be released in 2025 so if, like Safia, you're currently bracing yourself to watch season 5, take this as your reminder!
