320. Should I break up with my phone? 

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/645a3329-c0ed-4de5-b908-b332006a6e12/transcript

So many of us are coming to the realisation that we don't really know who we are anymore. We spend more time consuming other people's lives and personalities through a screen, than actually living out the person, values and passions that we have. On top of that, long hours, loneliness and the growing pains of our 20s mean many of us have no clear view of who we are. In this episode, we break down 7 tips to get your personality back, including: 
Why your personality is probably frozen, not lost
The value of unproductive goals 
The need for geographical novelty 
The 5 soul needs you need to fulfil weekly 
The journalling exercise we all need to try, today

Listen now if you're also feeling lost and disconnected from your true self.

371. The psychology of success

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/56e1e99d-851a-4db7-b4ef-b3c900cee862/transcript

At the start of every year, I choose a theme - not just goals, but a guiding philosophy. For 2026, that theme is doing less and achieving more.

In this episode, we explore why focus beats busyness, why saying no creates better outcomes, and how choosing depth over overwhelm can actually lead to more success. 

Our discussion includes: 
Why a yearly theme is more powerful than traditional goals
The psychology of intrinsic motivation
The importance of  focused vs. scattered effort
How to choose 1–2 true priorities for the year
The surprising psychology of rest
How to plan a year that feels intentional, not exhausting

Happy listening!
