  3. Comparison is the thief of me.

    Season 6, Episode 19

    Show notes

    It all started because of a girl in a kitchen.

    In this week's episode I tell the story about how a passing interaction was a catalyst for comparison, insecurity and envy and how I found power and evolution from it. How can you grow from comparison? How can you evolve in a sustainable way? And what can you learn about yourself in these ugly moments of envy?

    Am I craving love or am I craving distraction?

  11. Date me like we will never have sex.

    Season 6, Episode 12

    Show notes

    Do you want me or my body? After a clip from my podcast became polarising online I thought that I would dedicate an episode to the idea of dating someone like you will never have sex. A concept that really allows you to get to know the person beyond the physical. Is it a possibility within our dating generation? I hope you are able to take something from this episode and gain an understanding of what you want and what your boundaries are.

  16. Becoming an avoidant bitch.

    Season 6, Episode 7

    Show notes

    The quote 'you either die the hero or live long enough to become the villain' springs to mind when I think of my dating life at the moment. Past experiences have formed my current actions while dating and attaching terms like 'avoidant' don't do much other than give it a label.

    So how can I evolve and become the version of myself that believes in love?
