Pathologically Honest

When we say "people from all walks of life," we mean it. INTRODUCING our Not Strangers series.For this new format, we leave the studio and meet people the old-fashioned way, by walking up and saying hello.Jason, Mila, Marotetini, Dominic, and Mukesh. Five chance encounters that show just how quickly someone can stop feeling like a stranger.These episodes are recorded exactly as they happen, so you'll hear traffic, footsteps and all the little moments that come with being out in the real world. We're working towards minimising background noise moving forward, but wanted to test this first go without restriction.As always, this episode is also available as a YouTube video, where you can see all the action.One of today's beautiful interviewees was so insightful, we invited them to the studio for a full episode. You'll hear that full conversation next week.Catch you out and about xSHOWNOTES:Get amongst it:Instagram: @pathologicallyhonestTikTok: @pathologicallyhonestYouTube: Pathologically HonestGeorgia: @god_worthy on all the thingsWant to get Pathologically EVEN MORE Honest?Join us on Patreon for bonus unfiltered episodes, exclusive content, behind-the-scenes spirals, and community chats.

In this episode, she shares her powerful story, and gives us incredible insight into the realities of surviving in an abusive relationship.We get honest about:• How the relationship began, escalated, and ultimately led to Australia's first coercive control conviction in NSW• Why victims often return to abusive relationships, even when they know they should leave• Trauma bonds, how they form, and what it takes to break them• What family and friends saw from the outside, and how much was happening behind closed doors• Financial and sexual coercion, and why these forms of abuse are so often misunderstood• The difference between a healthy relationship and a coercively controlling one, even when the behaviours can look similar• Red flags to watch for in your own relationships and those around youEverything the relationship stole (and continues to steal) from her• Sam's reflections, and looking forwardMENTIONS: Listen to Hannah's Story here: https://open.spotify.com/show/2O1apWsHd8nGSYPeOuGg4x?si=oXifyrzYR4KI89Svk_OjPASUPPORT RESOURCES:Victims services counselling https://www.nsw.gov.au/legal-and-justice/information-for-victims-of-crime/victims-support-scheme/counsellingEscaping violence payment About the Programleavingviolenceprogram.org.auRent Choice Start safely NSW (search for your state's rental support)https://www.nsw.gov.au/departments-and-agencies/homes-nsw/social-housing-resources/rent-choice-start-safely1800 RESPECT | Counselling and information service for people affected by domestic, family, and sexual violenceLIFELINE | 13 11 14 | 24-hour telephone crisis support service in AustraliaBEYOND BLUE | 1300 22 4636SHOWNOTES:Get amongst it:Instagram: @pathologicallyhonestTikTok: @pathologicallyhonestYouTube: Pathologically HonestGeorgia: @god_worthy on all the thingsSammie: @sammieejade0Want to get Pathologically EVEN MORE Honest?Join us on Patreon for bonus unfiltered episodes, exclusive content, behind-the-scenes spirals, and community chats.

This week, we're throwing format out the window. Join Georgia and her forever best friend (talented AUSTRALIAN artist), Holly Greenwood, for a severely unstructured and chaotic trip down memory lane. They go over some of their most rogue times, including the time Holly was violently ill in a 16-person hostel room, while Georgia was out with Steve Aoki and Justin Bieber's 'friend' ;).We chat:High school and fashionGrowing up togetherOverseas story-timeMoments of chaosSpecial friendship chat SHOWNOTESGet amongst it:Instagram: @pathologicallyhonestTikTok: @pathologicallyhonestYouTube: Pathologically HonestGeorgia: @god_worthy on all the thingsBreathe With Sandy: @BreatheWithSandy on YouTubeWant to get Pathologically EVEN MORE Honest?Join us on Patreon for bonus unfiltered episodes, exclusive content, behind-the-scenes spirals, and community chats.

This week, Georgia is our guest, victim, and cautionary tale.In this solo episode Georgia tells the story of how she got scammed out of her inheritance (every cent she had), by a breath work guru who promised to fix basically everything. Addiction? Breath work. Mental health issues? Breath work. Trauma? More breath work.What started as a last-ditch attempt for healing turned into a masterclass in manipulation, and what happens when someone says they have all the answers, while you're vulnerable enough to believe them.SHOWNOTESGet amongst it:Instagram: @pathologicallyhonestTikTok: @pathologicallyhonestYouTube: Pathologically HonestGeorgia: @god_worthy on all the thingsBreathe With Sandy: @BreatheWithSandy on YouTubeWant to get Pathologically EVEN MORE Honest?Join us on Patreon for bonus unfiltered episodes, exclusive content, behind-the-scenes spirals, and community chats.

It's always who you least expect. Georgia was worried she'd been oversharing her woo-woo ways with her driving instructor, Mark. Little did she know, he sees dead people, and has had the most goose-bump-inducing spiritual experiences. This is the PERFECT example of how pathological honesty leads to untapped human connection.In this episode, Mark shares decades of encounters with spirits, psychic experiences, messages from loved ones who have passed and the moment he was told he could choose whether to stay or leave.We chat:Family story and abilitiesMark's early experiencesNot looking too hard for signsNear-death experiencesChoosing to stay or goThe crazy prediction that came trueSpiritual storiesSHOWNOTES:Get amongst it:Instagram: @pathologicallyhonestTikTok: @pathologicallyhonestYouTube: Pathologically HonestGeorgia: @god_worthy on all the thingsWant to get Pathologically EVEN MORE Honest?Join us on Patreon for bonus unfiltered episodes, exclusive content, behind-the-scenes spirals, and community chats.
