Ep. 43: Just talk about it

In the final episode of season 2, this solo episode digs into the simple, psychological experience of taking something out of your brain, and saying it out loud. Unburdening when you hold close to the chest sounds easy, but in practice many of us suck at it (myself included)!

Ep. 42: What are we aiming at?

What is mental health and well-being? The conversations around mental health are often about what's wrong with us, or what is our diagnosis or symptoms, which can be helpful but once we know what's "wrong with us", what do we aim towards? This episode takes a quick look at Tina Payne Bryson's (psychologist and author) definition of mental health as flexibility and flow.

Ep. 41: Acceptance is not approval

Acceptance is a gateway to moving through all the crap life has to throw at us. We often get acceptance mixed up with approval, and that by accepting something hard and painful or even just boring, we're saying "I'm ok with that." This episode takes a quick look at making the distinction between acceptance and approval, and how our lives can become much less exhausting if we practice acceptance.
