January 15, 2026 25: Inner Work or Inner Gaslighting
In this episode of the Walking Session Podcast, I unpack the difference between genuine inner work and what she calls inner gaslighting; the subtle way we can end up blaming ourselves for everything under the banner of self-awareness, positivity, or “doing the work.”
I gently challenge ideas like “you attract what you think,” sharing how these beliefs can increase anxiety, perfectionism, and self-doubt rather than healing, especially for people shaped by trauma or a strong need for control.
Through honest reflection and psychological insight, I invite you to choose a more compassionate middle ground: taking healthy responsibility without self-blame, allowing negative thoughts to exist without fear, and recognising that sometimes things simply happen. The episode is a reminder that acceptance, self-trust, and peace matter more than constant self-fixing; and that being human is not something you need to outgrow!

November 03, 202522: Need vs “Needy”: Why Cutting People Off Isn’t the Answer
Hello hello — it’s Maz. Not in my usual studio today (post-breakthrough vibes), just walking through a messy, honest chat about connection, isolation, and that viral advice to “just let them.” I share why oversimplified takes about “other people being your biggest stress” miss the mark for so many of us facing real-world pressure — think illness, money stress, grief, big life changes, or straight-up loneliness.

I read a listener Q&A about feeling like a burden when asking for support, and we unpack the difference between having needs and being “needy,” why our worlds shrink when we’re overwhelmed, and how to rebuild a village that’s give-and-take — not guilt and tally-keeping. If you’ve been white-knuckling self-reliance, this one’s your gentle nudge to take up space, speak up, and reconnect (in your way, at your pace).

You’ll hear:
Why “remove yourself” isn’t always realistic — or kind — when family, kids, culture, or care are involved
The real reasons we isolate (and how to notice when “relief” turns into disconnection)
Simple scripts to ask for help without apologising for existing
A reframe: what if needing people isn’t a flaw — it’s the most human thing about you?

October 27, 2025 21: How the Overcorrected Diva turned into Pick Me
In this episode of The Walking Session Podcast, I’m diving into what I call the “overcorrected diva” — that part of us that’s tried so hard not to be too much that we’ve ended up silencing our needs altogether. You know the one — when you say “it’s fine” instead of speaking up, when you apologise for wanting help, or when you downplay what you truly need just to stay likeable.

Together, we’ll unpack how we got here — from being praised for being “easygoing” to fearing we’ll be seen as “high maintenance” — and how that quiet self-editing slowly leads to burnout and resentment. I’ll talk about why setting boundaries gets labelled as “bitchy,” how we can redefine what self-care really looks like, and how to give ourselves permission to have needs that don’t have to be justified.

Whether you’ve lost touch with what fills your cup or you’re ready to stop earning your rest, this episode will help you reconnect with your unapologetic, fully expressed self.

🎧 Grab your headphones, your shoes, and maybe your coffee — let’s walk it out.

October 20, 2025 20: What Got You Here Won’t Get You There aka the Breakthrough (Part 2)
In this unedited follow-up to part 1 where I quite literally fell through my seat mid-recording—and somehow, it becomes the perfect metaphor for the topic: breakthrough.

In Part 2, we dive deeper into how old habits, even the helpful ones, can start to hold us back. Whether it’s overworking, saying yes to everyone, or clinging to outdated routines, this episode explores how to soften what once protected us and reshape it into something that serves where we’re going.

I share small, realistic steps you can take to move forward—like shifting one daily habit at a time—so that growth feels doable, not overwhelming.

🎧 Join me as we laugh, reflect, and get real about what it takes to keep evolving—one small step (and one coconut coffee) at a time.

October 20, 2025 19: What Got You Here Won’t Get You There aka the Breakthrough (Part 1)
Sometimes what once worked beautifully for us—whether in our career, relationships, or daily routines—stops working altogether. In this episode, I share a raw story from my early days as a psychologist and the lesson my supervisor taught me long before I was ready to hear it: you can’t sprint through every season of life.

From working multiple jobs in my twenties to juggling motherhood, business, and study later on, I’ve learned (the hard way) that burnout often disguises itself as productivity. This conversation is an invitation to pause, reflect, and ask: what parts of me need to evolve to grow into my next chapter?

🎧 Tune in, walk it out, and start noticing where life is nudging you to change.

P.S. listen all the way to the end of the episode for a literal breakthrough!!

October 13, 202518: No One Has Their Sh*t Together (and That’s Okay)
No one has their sh*t together — not your boss, not the perfect mum at school pick-up, and definitely not this psychologist with a podcast.

In this episode, I talk about why we all fall into the trap of thinking everyone else is doing better, how comparison steals our peace, and what it actually means to be “together enough.” I also share a study (Jordan et al., 2011, Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin) that shows we consistently underestimate how often other people feel negative emotions — which is why it can look like they’ve got it all figured out when they really don’t.

I’ll walk you through:
Why chasing perfection won’t make you safer or happier.
How to work with your natural rhythms instead of against them.
The small, practical things that really help when life feels messy.
This one’s for you if you’ve ever looked around and thought, “Is it just me?” — it’s not. Nobody has their sh*t together all the time, and you don’t need to either.

🎧 Tune in while you walk, breathe, or just take a minute for yourself.

October 06, 202517: Improve your Confidence and Stop Overthinking Things
Do you ever lie awake at night replaying conversations, worrying about what you said, or second-guessing yourself? Or maybe one small mistake at work spirals into a whole day of self-doubt. If so—you’re not alone.

In this episode of the Walking Session Podcast, I answer two listener dilemmas that many of us can relate to:
Overthinking at night: Why our brains won’t switch off and how to calm the spiral before bed.
Confidence knock at work: How to bounce back from small mistakes instead of letting them define your whole week.
You’ll learn:
How to use a worry diary to give your brain permission to rest.
Why scheduling “worry time” can stop rumination from taking over.
Simple sleep strategies to break the overthinking cycle.
How confidence is built (and rebuilt) through action and perspective.
Journaling prompts and affirmations to remind yourself of your strengths.
This episode is your reminder that you’re not defined by a typo, a slip-up, or a moment of self-doubt. Confidence isn’t about being perfect—it’s about trusting yourself, learning, and continuing forward.

September 29, 202516: Strong, but Tired: Why We Struggle to Ask for Help
Do you ever feel like you have to do everything on your own? Like asking for help means you’re weak, needy, or a burden? That’s hyper-independence—and while it can make us look “strong” on the outside, it often leaves us exhausted and disconnected on the inside.

In this episode, I unpack:
What hyper-independence really is (and how it’s different from healthy independence)

The hidden reasons so many of us fall into this pattern

How it shows up in our relationships, work, and everyday life

Gentle steps to start letting support in without losing your sense of self

You don’t have to keep carrying it all alone. By the end of this walk, you’ll feel seen—and maybe even ready to share a little of the load.
