The Nutters Club, began its 2026 season with an inspiring episode on creating plans to support mental well-being throughout the year. ​

The episode centred on the challenges of New Year’s resolutions, which often feel burdensome or lead to feelings of failure. ​ Instead, the hosts encouraged listeners to reframe their goals in a way that motivates and supports mental health. ​ They emphasised the importance of flexibility in planning, noting that plans should evolve and adapt over time. ​

Listeners shared their personal stories and strategies for overcoming challenges and improving their mental health. Donna, a caller, spoke about her goal of overcoming agoraphobia and building confidence to enjoy walks on the beach near her home. ​ Another caller, Matt, shared his journey of finding a job after a health scare and being promoted to a health and safety role within three months. ​ He expressed his desire to meet someone new after seven years of being divorced, with encouragement from his children. ​

Judy, a caller married for 51 years, shared her and her husband’s decision to downsize to a boarding house for senior citizens as he battles terminal kidney cancer. Their courageous choice to plan for the future and ensure Judy’s safety and comfort after his passing resonated deeply with listeners, who sent messages of love and support.

The show also highlighted the importance of finding one’s “why” when setting goals. ​Boris shared his personal story of overcoming challenges and finding motivation in making his late mother proud. ​ He emphasised the value of setting small, achievable milestones and stepping out of one’s comfort zone to grow. ​

Listeners were encouraged to share their own plans and motivations for the year ahead. ​ Joy, an 82-year-old listener, inspired the audience with her decision to travel to the UK alone to visit a family member she recently reconnected with. ​

The Nutters Club continues to provide a platform for open conversations about mental health, offering support and inspiration to its audience.
