‘Hey… you up?’.

On this week’s episode of Girls With Goals, we’re delving into the murky world of modern romance and finding out a few terrifying things we never knew about emojis (the devastating truth about the ‘ok’ symbol happens at 13.01).

2FM DJ and author Ciara King, and interior designer and author Caroline Foran join Niamh Maher on the panel this week as they also tackle catcalling, anxiety and they’re even opening the pages of their personal teenage diaries.

Ciara King opens up about her struggles with online dating saying she’s missed the Tinder and Plenty of Fish boat. Ciara admits that she’s dabbled, but a particularly brutal ghosting episode has left her cautious,

“This year I’ve dated three guys one I really really really liked and I thought this was it and then he ghosted me, after six months, and I’ve never heard from him since. I wish that he’d said I’m seeing someone else, I’m not into you”.

 

Caroline Foran talks us through her plans for her new book after the success of ‘Owning It: Your Bullshit Free Guide to Living With Anxiety‘ and our athlete of the week is champion kickboxer Caradh O’Donovan, who had an uphill battle after being diagnosed with Crohn’s disease.
