Ep 30 - How To Handle Change

Season 1, Ep. 30

In this episode, I look at the thing that is the only constant in this world - change.

Now, many people don't like change. It's hard, it's uncomfortable, and all round, they think it's not great. But what if that change is forced upon you? Death? Job Loss? Someone breaks into your house or crashes into your car? Then what?


We often don't prepare for the hard changes in life but with this episode, you'll have at least some of the tools and understanding you need to go through it in a healthy way.

  • 26. Ep 26 - Brown Fathers, Masculinity, and Vulnerability

    19:53||Season 1, Ep. 26
    Ah the stoic Brown father. The old school masculine type who faces any hardship without saying a word. The right way to go about things? Probably not. I'm looking at how stoic fathers can shape family dynamics and how we can use vulnerability to create better relationships for some of our father figures or male role models in our lives.
