Nikki Morrison is an Exercise Scientist, Registered Nurse, Oncology Specialist, End of Life Doula, Pastoral Carer and Earth Angel. In this chat, we discuss our individual challenges (hers and mine) with eating issues, body image issues, body dysmorphia and obsessive food, lifestyle and exercise habits, which derailed big slabs of our (respective) lives. We also explore some of the underlying emotional, social and psychological drivers of our seemingly-crazy behaviours.

#1365 Obsessed, Irrational & Insecure - Nikki Morrison

At some stage of the TYP evolution, shy, introverted and courageous listener Kelly Smith somehow wrangled her way from one side of the microphone (off air) to the other side. And we're glad she did. Kelly brings a level of vulnerability, genuine curiosity and self-awareness to the conversation that's not always present on Planet Podcast. Enjoy.

#2111 When Does a Good Habit Become a Bad Obsession? - Kel Smith

Yes, it is. No, it's not. Sometimes. Depends. To whom? What's the context? Did they ask for it? Are you qualified to give it? Could your "good advice" be bad for them? What "works" for me, might be a catastrophe for you. Or vice-versa. What's your reason for giving the advice? Could it create more problems than solutions? Do they want it... or are you just supplying it? Is it welcomed or resented? Giving advice (and receiving it, for that matter) ain't that simple or straight forward - especially when we're talking about an exchange between two people who don't think alike, who live in different realities (subjective or objective) and look at things through a different lens. Good intentions are not enough. "But it's for their own good", is a terrible starting (and often, finishing) point. This was an interesting exploration into a very common - but perhaps misunderstood - part of the human experience.

#2110 Is Giving Advice a Good Idea? - Bobby Cappuccio

This probably won't win any awards for podcasting excellence or educational mastery, but Tiff and I had fun chatting about how and why choosing pain, discomfort and uncertainty can lead to more comfort, confidence and calm, and less anxiety, overthinking and internal chaos. Enjoy.
