380. A big life update...

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/2e105c9a-40d4-41e8-80fe-b3e200ffd10a/transcript

Living with a chronic illness in your 20s can feel like carrying an invisible weight that nobody else can see. Beyond the hospital appointments, surgeries, medications and diagnoses, there is a hidden psychological burden: the anxiety, grief, uncertainty, identity struggles and resilience required to keep moving forward when your body feels beyond your control.

In this week's episode, I sit down with content creator, advocate and broadcaster Nikki Lilly to discuss what it's really like growing up with a rare medical condition, navigating facial differences, online bullying, and building a meaningful life despite constant uncertainty.

We discuss:
The hidden psychological impact of chronic illness
 Medical trauma, PTSD and the long road to healing
How chronic illness affects your relationship with your body
Online bullying, discrimination and appearance-based judgment
Plus her time at the Oscars and her vision for her future

429. The reality of chronic illness in your 20s ft. Nikki Lilly

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/7610035b-c7e3-4203-93bf-b46a00bcd2ca/transcript

Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs is one of the most famous theories in psychology. We've all seen the pyramid. We've all been told that before we can become our best selves, we need to climb through five levels of human needs, from food and safety all the way to self-actualisation. But what if that's not actually what Maslow believed?

In this bonus episode, as part of our series myth-busting psychology, we're uncovering the surprising truth behind one of psychology's most iconic ideas, including:
Why Maslow never actually drew a pyramid
The forgotten sixth level of the hierarchy
The Indigenous Blackfoot origins of the theory
Whether self-actualisation is really the highest human goal
Why the hierarchy isn't as rigid as we've been taught
What modern psychology says about the evidence behind Maslow's ideas

428. The truth about Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/0f70adf5-8d8c-4a08-8b99-b46700e79666/transcript

Most of us will spend the majority of our adult lives working. So why does the traditional 9–5 leave so many people feeling exhausted, trapped, unfulfilled, or quietly wondering: is this really it?

In this episode, we explore the psychology behind why the 9–5 can feel so unnatural for some people, why work often becomes the centre of our identity, and what to do when the life you've been told should make you happy simply doesn't.

This includes:
Why the 9–5 often feels so draining
The psychology of role engulfment and losing yourself to work
The personality traits that predict whether you'll enjoy traditional employment
The importance of hobbies, purpose, novelty, and community
When it's time to consider a different path
Practical advice for anyone dreaming of working for themselves
