  • Why don't we ever feel ready?
    Oct 7 2025

    In this episode, we delve into what it really means to feel ‘ready’. We talk about our own experiences of not being ready to act, and what was holding us back. We explore how things like perfectionism, nerves and putting things off can hold us back, and why waiting for the ‘perfect moment’ often just keeps us stuck.


    Along the way, we touch on relationships, decision-making, and why it helps to explore, and get comfortable with, a bit of uncertainty. Readiness isn’t something you wait for - it’s something you do, with courage and self-awareness


    takeaways

    • We can prevent ourselves from doing things because we don't feel ready.
    • Perfectionism can create barriers to taking action.
    • Anxiety can amplify feelings of unpreparedness.
    • The need for everything to be perfect can hinder progress.
    • Procrastination is often linked to fear of failure.
    • There is no such thing as perfect conditions for starting something new.
    • Waiting for the right time can lead to missed opportunities.
    • Tolerating discomfort is essential for growth and action.
    • Clarity in our intentions can help us move forward.
    • Taking action is more important than waiting to feel ready.

  • Why do we feel the need to fix ourselves?
    Sep 23 2025

    In this episode we discuss that there are two types of ‘fixing’. There’s the wanting to fix ourselves because we believe we are ‘broken’ or ‘damaged’ and the wanting to change the way in which we meet a particular situation in order to manage ourselves in a more helpful manner.


    If we can move away from the idea that we need to be fixed, and turn more to the idea that other ways of engaging with our world might be more supportive – that a behaviour or attitude might benefit from being fixed – then we just might find more peace in our life.

  • Why do we feel responsible for other people's feelings?
    Sep 9 2025

    In this episode we discuss feeling responsible for other people's feelings. Often that means that we can find it hard to stick to our boundaries because we don’t want to upset other people. This can then lead us to feeling that our needs don’t count and we can become frustrated, sad or even angry.


    Of course we don’t like to upset others, however we are all responsible for how we respond to situations. It is possible to take accountability for our own actions, but not how others respond to those actions. And this is important though difficult to remember this when we are faced with the distress of others.


    Generally it’s not an either/or choice, it is possible to take care of our own feelings and the feelings of others.
