Micah is a South London-born actor and the writer of One Brother — a moving short film that sheds light on mental health, poverty, family, and the pressures that can lead young people into crime. In this episode, Micah shares his personal story of growing up with a father who has schizophrenia, the impact of his environment, and why he believes in telling stories that humanise instead of stereotype.

We speak about:

• Why One Brother was created and the message behind it

• Life after prison and the struggle to rebuild

• The stigma surrounding mental health in Black communities

• What it means to be a role model when you didn’t have one growing up

• The power of changing your perspective when you're stuck

  
  

Micah also reflects on what he’d say to anyone feeling trapped by their environment or mental health struggles — and it’s something we all need to hear.

In this solo episode, I open up about a recent job interview experience that reminded me of just how far I’ve come.

I talk about trusting my intuition, not settling for less than I deserve, and how hard it can be to hold your ground when the world labels you as “too sensitive.”

What does it really mean to be in your 20s? In this episode, I’m joined by the incredible Jemma Sbeg — host of The Psychology of Your 20s — for a raw and relatable chat about all the chaos that comes with this decade.

Still single in your 20s and wondering if you're the only one?

In this solo episode, I dive into what it really feels like to be single in your 20s — especially when everyone around you seems to be moving in, getting engaged, or posting soft launches on Instagram.

We talk about the pressure to “keep up,” being the last single friend, comparison, dating burnout, and that quiet fear that maybe you’ve missed your window.

But we also explore the beauty of this season — the growth, freedom, and deep self-discovery that can only happen when you're on your own.

If you've ever felt like you're behind, unlovable, or just over it… this one's for you.

Because being single isn’t a waiting room — it’s a powerful chapter all on its own.
