Beschrijving

In this episode of Little Big Stories, we meet William who dared to reinvent himself at 40. After a career in cancer research and years spent teaching, he made the bold decision to return to university to study psychology. In this interview we will come back to his first semester: his doubts, his drive, the mindset that carried him, and the challenges he didn’t expect. A story about starting over, trusting your instincts, and proving it’s never too late to choose a new path. References: * Book: Irvin D.

The Mind That Never Slows Down: Living with ADHD

In this episode of Little Big Stories, we meet Anouk, who opens up about what it means to live with ADHD in everyday life. From being diagnosed at a young age to building systems that help her navigate focus, emotions, and routines, she shares an honest look at a mind that never slows down. Together, we explore the challenges, the misconceptions, and the unexpected strengths that come with thinking differently. A story about understanding your own brain, learning how to work with it rather than against it, and embracing the creativity, intensity, and resilience that come with being unapologetically yourself.

From First Date to Forever: What 20 Years Together Really Looks Like

In this episode of Little Big Stories, we meet Erika, who shares what it really means to build love over time. After nearly 20 years together and 15 years of marriage, she opens up about her journey: from an unexpected beginning to a lasting partnership shaped by trust, compromise, and growth. In this conversation, we explore what makes a relationship endure. The doubts, the challenges, the moments of disconnection, but also the quiet strength of choosing each other, again and again. A story about long-term love, evolving together, and understanding that behind every lasting relationship, there is not just love but work, patience, and intention.
