  • Why don't we talk 'anxiety'??? (EP 1 of 2024)
    Jan 23 2024

    It's been a while.... But finally i'm back... My absence will be explained....


    Do you ever sit down and ask yourself these questions:

    - Why do I have anxiety?

    - Why do I choose to hide my anxiety?

    - Why don't I want too talk about my anxiety?

    - Why can't I put my mind at rest?

    - Why do I find it difficult too drift off too sleep?


    These are all common questions, that at some point of our lives 99.9% of people will encounter. All these questions + more, is what makes up this episode.


    One of the big reasons as too why I stopped podcasting for such a long period, was due too my own personal struggle with anxiety. Throughout this episode, I will unravel my own most recent journey with anxiety. Because if there's one thing i've learnt, normalising struggle, and extracting the negative and toxic thoughts from the mind, is the most powerful tool in better not only yourself, but also helping those around you, that may be struggling as well...

  • Happy Place - A Solo Podcast Episode
    May 3 2023

    It's been a while since I last uploaded a podcast episode. Life got busy. My mental health wasn't in the greatest of places... But i'm back!! And i'm bringing with me some consistently. There's plenty too look forward do, I can assure you;).


    - Have you ever created a 'happy space' for yourself?

    - Do you lack in confidence with it comes too flirting / meeting new people for the first time?

    - How do you overcome an anxiety attack?

    - Finding your perfect person? Where do you start?

    - Do you stop doing something due too addictive nature?

    - Finding comfort within, when hurdles are 'thrown' at us...


    These questions... and MORE, were discussed in detail, in this episode of 'Couching The Mind'...

    Moto of the Podcast (if your a new listener) = —> Clearing the mind one couch talk at a time <— PODCAST UPDATE: This is the new and improved ‘Couching The Mind’. Where majority of episodes going forward, will be conducted in a group like environment. I personally find that by interviewing 2-3 people at once, it creates a certain level of comfortability for interviewees to be able to say exactly how they feel upon certain topics. Plus interviewees can argue back and forward on certain things, which I feel as if it’s a really important perk to have. And one other thing, laughter, laughter, laughter! They’ll be plenty of this as well!


    Main message from the episode: As important as it is too look out for your mates, family, your partner. Don't forget self-care. Putting love back into 'you'. Because without this, you'll only get burnt out, and things may noticeably start to bog you down. We don't need that !:)

  • 'Being the highest bid, for a banana duct taped to a wall' feat, Jeff Woolaston (my father)
    Apr 2 2023

    - Would you believe me if i told you that back in 2019, a banana ducted tape to a wall (what they call a 'piece of art') had been sold for $120,000 at Art Basel (Miami Beach)?

    - Does the explicit language in RNB and Rap music, have a negative effect on people / does it ultimately shape people?

    - Is the Magic Mike movie franchise, a toxic representation of how a 'true man' should look physically?

    - Does the 2023 world, bring forth a sense of repression?

    - Are we doing enough for 'mental health', in 2023. Is there an apparent positive progressional change?
