Fumbling Forward

E24 - Toxic relationships, a friends funeral, Spotify wrapped, executive dysfunction & Imposter Syndrome


Listen Later

Hello hello, we're starting to see a shift! (Filmed Dec 24) I'm sure you can see it too form the first ep! Yup that’s right - another death! Grief seems to be all around at the moment, uncles, friends and colleagues, but weirdly I seem to be managing it ok.


A good friend died, she will be very dearly missed - what an incredible woman she was. To her, kindness and glamour. Come listen to how wonderful she was, and what I’ve been thinking that’s been getting me through the overload of grief I’ve had recently.


There is still a lot of laughter and joy in this episode, which really goes to show more than one emotion can exist at the same time. Grief and loss is not all there is, and it’s important to remind yourself of this when you’re surrounded by it.


I’ve also decided I'm starting to not take life as seriously anymore, and consequently, I’m starting to be funny again!


Here’s some things I’ve learned in this episode:

  • It doesn’t matter how much time has passed, you can still reach out to people.

  • How you think other people perceive you, is NOT accurate!

  • Being authentic is a NEED!

  • You can be authentic and then put it to the side too to still enjoy life. It’s not all there is.

  • You DO have all the answers - you don't need to be rescued, if you're reliant on others, you'll always need them, is that why we do it?


We also discuss the skill of repeating back what people say, and how it unlocks their minds.


There is an update on the noisy neighbours...


I've experimented with not caring about what others think, AND I go through my journal with you to share the lessons I learned in each day.


This part always blows my mind,

the part where we see how many of you are here:
