Tickety Boo - Exploring Mental Health with Care and Compassion

You can know it’s over. Know it’s unhealthy. Know it’s not working. And still find your heart refusing to let go. In this episode of Tickety Boo, Andy, Ian and Iona dive into that strange emotional limbo—when your brain has figured it out, but your heart hasn’t caught up. We talk about the lag between logic and emotion, why self-protection makes us hold on longer than we should, and the grieving process that doesn’t always begin with goodbye. 🔹 Why we revisit people, places, and memories we already know aren’t right 🔹 How emotional attachment lingers long after we “know better” 🔹 Why letting go is less about strength and more about safety 🔹 And what to do when your head is saying move on but your heart still whispers maybe... If you’ve ever felt stuck in that space between knowing and accepting—you’re not alone. This one might land a little deeper.

Ever felt like everyone else has their life together and you’re the only one still figuring it out? In this episode of Tickety Boo, we get brutally honest about the fear that it’s "too late" to change paths, start over, or become who you were always meant to be. Whether it’s a career, relationship, identity, or just the way you live day-to-day there’s often a quiet voice inside that says: “It’s too late now. You’ve missed your chance.” But what if that’s not true? 🎙️ Join Andy, Ian, and Iona as we unpack: * Why society makes us feel like we’re behind * How shame stops us from making bold moves * What “starting again” really looks like in adulthood * The emotional cost of staying stuck out of fear We’ve all had moments where we’ve had to hit reset and this conversation is for anyone standing at the edge of something new, scared to take the leap. It’s not about being fearless. It’s about being ready enough. 🎧 Available now on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and YouTube. ✅ Social Links: Listen to the full episode now, and for more insights, follow us on social media: 📲 Instagram: @pieceofminduk [https://www.instagram.com/pieceofminduk] 📲 Facebook: Piece of Mind UK [https://www.facebook.com/PieceOfMindUK] 🌍 Visit us at: www.piece-of-mind.co.uk/podcast [https://www.piece-of-mind.co.uk/podcast] 🎥 Watch full episodes on our YouTube channel [https://www.youtube.com/@pieceofmindtherapy]

In this unscripted episode of Tickety Boo, we pull a random card that simply asks: “What have you learnt about yourself recently?” No prep. No plan. Just three people reflecting in real time. And what unfolds is honest, sometimes funny, sometimes uncomfortable—but always real. We talk about the stuff you usually figure out at 2am… * What patterns we’re still stuck in * What we’ve finally outgrown * What surprised us about how we actually behave when no one’s watching Sometimes the biggest shifts come from the smallest moments—those quiet realisations that hit you like a brick. If you're in a season of self-reflection, this one might land deeper than you expect. ✅ Social Links for Spotify/YouTube: Listen to the full episode now, and for more insights, follow us on social media: 📲 Instagram: @pieceofminduk [https://www.instagram.com/pieceofminduk] 📲 Facebook: Piece of Mind UK [https://www.facebook.com/PieceOfMindUK] 🌍 Visit us at: www.piece-of-mind.co.uk/podcast [https://www.piece-of-mind.co.uk/podcast] 🎥 Watch full episodes on our YouTube channel [https://www.youtube.com/@pieceofmindtherapy]

Why do we keep asking other people what we already know deep down? In this episode of Tickety Boo, Andy, Ian, and Iona dig into the quiet crisis of self-doubt—when you second-guess your gut, silence your instincts, and hand your decision-making power over to anyone but you. We talk about: * Why we obsessively ask for other people’s opinions * How fear of failure makes us chase permission instead of clarity * What childhood dynamics teach us about trusting (or not trusting) ourselves * Why relying on everyone else’s advice can leave you more confused, not less We’ve all been there scrolling for answers, texting a mate, asking someone to validate the thing we already know. But if you’re constantly looking outside yourself for the answer… maybe it’s because you’ve forgotten how to hear your own voice. Expect raw truths, relatable stories, and one honest reminder: Nobody else knows your path better than you do. ✅ Social Links for Spotify/YouTube: Listen to the full episode now, and for more insights, follow us on social media: 📲 Instagram: @pieceofminduk [https://www.instagram.com/pieceofminduk] 📲 Facebook: Piece of Mind UK [https://www.facebook.com/PieceOfMindUK] 🌍 Visit us at: www.piece-of-mind.co.uk/podcast [https://www.piece-of-mind.co.uk/podcast] 🎥 Watch full episodes on our YouTube channel [https://www.youtube.com/@pieceofmindtherapy]

Are you actually healing? Or just keeping so busy you don’t notice you’re still hurting? In this episode of Tickety Boo, Andy, Ian and Iona ask the question that hits a little too close to home: Are you healed or just distracted? We unpack the difference between real emotional growth… and emotional avoidance dressed up as progress. You know the drill—new goals, new habits, constant noise—but inside? You still feel flat. Or anxious. Or just… off. We explore: * How the brain uses distraction to avoid discomfort * Why productivity and people-pleasing can become coping mechanisms * What real healing feels like (spoiler it’s not always peaceful) * Why stillness is often where the truth shows up If you’ve ever thought, “I should be over this by now,” but something still doesn’t feel right this episode is for you. Expect honesty, a few laughs, and the kind of questions that make you pause.
