It's that time of the year when we all start making promises to ourselves that we'll probably break by February. Yep, it's New Year's resolution season...

In this episode, I engage in a rather unsual (sometimes uncomfortable), but always integrous conversation with my ex, Jayson Greeff, exploring his journey of coming out. Jay and I dated for about a year together during my matric year, he was my first "real" boyfriend and it was years later that he bravely revealed his truth as a gay man. Our discussion delves into his experiences during...

Sheesh, typing this title was hard, and weird to look at. Please let it be known that I'm not claiming I have an eating disorder and I'm in no way trying to be insensitive to anyone who is genuinely struggling with this. But I am saying that I think some of my eating habits are disordered, and not the healthiest. This is an honest conversation on body image and my relationship with food. B...

In this episode, I delve into past experiences that shaped my money mindset, explo...

We've all had a toxic person in our lives, but have you ever considered if you're the toxic person in someone else life? Maybe you're even the toxic person in your own life... Ouch.

We all, at some point, deviate from the truth. Whether it's to dodge embarrassment, conceal mistakes, embellish achievements, or make over-optimistic promises, dishonesty sometimes seems to be hardwired into our interactions. We craft these narratives to shield ourselves or others from discomfort. But if deceit is so intertwined with our daily lives, should we simply accept it? Book reference:...

This week with Dr Michele Vanzaghi, we chat about life with one testicle and the transformative impact of overcoming cancer.

As per ushe this poddy delivers way more than the title. This week with Mathew Neilson, our dear sweet Methuselah. We dive head first into a conversation on the nervous system, our coping mechanisms, the benefits of somatic release (neurogenic tremoring) and also a sidebar convo on how forgiveness can be overrated and boredom is good for us! A disclaimer - there were some sound issues that resulte...

Alright. I could have worked on this episode for a year straight before ever feeling like I did it justice. Instead, I've mashed all my thoughts into a longer-than-usual solo episode discussing why I want my partner to pay me one million rand for every baby I pop out. It's a standpoint dripping in privilege, but more than that, I'm hoping it'll offer a different way of seeing thing...

Let's be honest, ketamine has become synonymous with dancefloor at this point. In this episode, I look at K and try to evaluate how we're treating this substance (and ourselves). And when I say "headache" at some point near the middle, I just mean I referred to like 40-50 articles to try and double-check the information that I came across, so I was ready to move onto the chat/opi...

My lovely friend Gia tells us why she ditched the Copper-T and drops some knowledge regarding the new contraceptive route she's decided to take – the 'Fertility Awareness Method'.

In this episode, I take a look at "What Happened To You?" by Dr Bruce Perry & Oprah Winfrey. The book takes a look at trauma through a Scientific lens, and honestly, it's blown me and continues to blow me out of the water. It's personally helped me cultivate understanding, empathy and tenderness for myself and the deep-rooted, self-sabotaging worldview that formed way back wh...
