Cut The Fluff

Distinguishing the line between gossip and genuine curiosity, particularly when making new friends. Discussing the expectations we often place on our partners to be everything to us, the lover, the cook, the therapist, the hiking buddy etc? We explore the idea of outsourcing elements of your needs and the importance of having an identity outside of your relationship.

Finding manifestation impossible as of late? Anika and Daniela delve into rediscovering the art of manifestation post lockdown. They discuss their own unique process/formula and uncover their previous experience with manifestation. Asking for signs from the universe and playing around with it.

We also cover the danger of the healing cocoon and getting stuck in a perpetual state of healing. The importance of surrounding yourself with people who will help you keep your vision alive, particularly when you’re finding it difficult to keep the flame alive yourself.

Anika’s encounter with a tick gets us talking about the power of the mind. Exploring the power of the mind, placebo, nocebo. Daniela has experienced numerous health issues since coming off the pill and feels she has exhausted almost every avenue and she can’t help but question whether it’s all in her mind. During the process of healing, it’s important to keep your identity separate to your diagnosis, or health issue. We explore managing panic attacks in the heat of the moment.
