Humans Discuss Being

Sandra from Family Personalities joins me for podcast chats all about personality typing and its benefits for you personally as well as for understanding others and relating to others in better and more effective ways.

Sandra talks about the Myers-Briggs method of typing personality types as well as the Enneagram.

Tips on how to acquire the elusive delight that is a securely attached attachment style! :)

Enjoy the learning! :)

Pure clickbait title there, I have no idea how your relationship is going - only you know that! :) 

In this episode I talk about attachment styles: what are they, when they are formed and how they impact us in our intimate relationships as adults. It's not as depressing as it sounds! :) 

Give it a listen and achieve enlightenment.

This week's episode I talk about a recent virtual 'Death Cafe' experience I had, the ponderings related to that and the existential perspective on anxiety.

Topics discussed in this week's episode:

- feeling shit

- don't know what to say or who to talk to

- how to open up / talk to someone

- how to listen & 'hold the space'

- depression, eating disorder: personal piece

- suggestions for what might help

In this 'Therapy Special' episode, I talk about: 

- Flight into Health (a phenomenon that can occur before / during therapy) 

- Why you think your therapist is an idiot who doesn't know what they're doing 

- Signs of a bad therapist (cause your therapist MIGHT be shite!) 

- Window of Tolerance 

- Grounding Techniques

This week Emma Matthews joins me to tell me all about a new initiative entitled 'Minding Creative Minds' which provides mental health and other supports for people in the creative industries. It's a very informative chat and might be especially useful for any of you creative folk out there! :)

Happy listening :)

This week's podcast is a continuation on the topic of therapy. In this episode, I talk about the general phases of therapy, as well as the stages of therapy and the process of change.

I hope it's helpful.

Humans Discuss Being is slightly different this week. There is no interview with a fellow human. Instead, I am speaking for a short amount of time (less than 20 minutes, hurray!) about therapy: what it is and how to get it.

January is typically a time of year where people consider engaging with therapy. I know from experience this can be a daunting and scary prospect. In this podcast episode I impart whatever little whippets of wisdom I have acquired about what therapy is and how to go about getting a therapist, what usually happens in the first session etc.

I hope it's helpful.

Please contact me @evedarcy1 on Twitter or Insta or email me: [email protected] if you have any further questions or would like me to cover any other psychotherapy/ psychology - related topics on future podcasts.

Regular 'Humans Discuss Being' where I interview a guest will also be returning... this is just some information on therapy I wanted to share in the hope it helps someone :)

Gordo Brennan joins me for podcast chats this week. In the episode Gordo kindly and generously shares with us his experience of living with bi-polar disorder. He tells us about the journey of self-discovery he has been on, what he finds helpful, what he doesn't.

We also talk about emotional intelligence, masculinity and how our society does a grave disservice to boys and men when it comes to self-care and emotional wellbeing.
