In this episode of your thirteenth favourite, above average, but infinitely curious podcast DIMED OUT…we wrap things up on Season 5.
Diving into an amateur attempt at Kintsugi, the Japanese art of repairing pottery with gold dusted lacquer, I break a cheap bowl and put it back together with superglue and gold paint. A fun little project and a metaphor of sorts for embracing flaws and imperfections. Something I've been working in in this season.
I also discuss perspective shifts and the human element of my time in Puebla.

I finally find myself at Clinica Ruiz in Puebla, Mexico to undergo my HSCT treatment.

In this episode of your third favourite above average but infinitely curious podcast DIMED OUT...we're entering a world of pure imagination.
From the Irish heir to a garden empire, who may or may not have killed his father on St Patrick's Day, to a Doctor entangled in the time travelling shenanigans of Abraham Van Helsing's ghost...this episode takes a look at how for the first time in almost 20 years I returned to acting.
In this episode of your third favourite above average but infinitely curious podcast DIMED OUT…we're looking at Performance.
Acting the part you think other people want to see.
Embodying the character we believe we need to be.
The various masks we wear for those around us.
We're also looking at the productive and destructive qualities of Perfectionism.
What it is, how it manifests, when it starts and when it should stop.
Outside of detailing my own experiences with perfectionism, in this episode I dive into two seperate, but equally fantastic conversations.
The first is with Jess Parente, trauma informed coach and founder of 'It Ends With You' - a mental health service specialising in codependency.
IT ENDS WITH YOU

DIMED OUT
In this episode of your third favourite above average but infinitely curious podcast DIMED OUT…
I'm digging into isolation and detachment, earnest intentions, and significant changes.
Changes that I need to make for my own sake.
Changes that can help break me out of an insular way of life.
And changes that I find myself navigating, like a new job...in public radio.
