    Have you ever felt like everything in your late twenties is suddenly up for grabs - your relationships, your career, even who you thought you were?

  • 342. The psychology of dissociation
    Have you ever felt like the world around you isn’t quite real, or like you’re watching your life from the outside? Have you ever driven somewhere and suddenly wondered how you got there? It might be dissociation - a surprisingly common psychological experience that can be both protective and, at times, unsettling. In this episode we look at the psychology behind dissociation – what is going on in our bodies and brains during this state, what triggers us and how it interacts with wider factors in our lives. We explore:• The science of why we freeze in this state• How it can help us cope, and when it becomes maladaptive• Interactions with ADHD, trauma and survival mode• Why it feels so unsettling• Strategies to pull you back in• Reminders for when we don’t feel real If you’ve ever felt like you were living on autopilot, this episode is for you.

  • 341. The 5 types of toxic friendships
    Friendships should be a source of joy – people who just make life lighter. But not all friendships feel that way. Some leave us drained, insecure, or questioning our worth. And it can be hard to admit when a friendship has become toxic. Learning to recognise when a friendship is no longer healthy, and how to navigate that shift, is a crucial part of protecting your well-being and building a life that feels aligned.In this episode, we unpack the psychology of toxic friendships: why we hold onto them, what they cost us, and how to create relationships that support rather than drain us. We explore: • Why good friendships are so crucial in our 20s• The 5 types of toxic friendships• Warning signs of toxicity• How to recognise positive friendship dynamics• Why we stay in toxic friendships• How to manage friendship breakups and the emotional fallout If you’ve ever felt trapped in a friendship that leaves you more exhausted than supported, this episode is for you.
