210 - Jumbo Chats, Naked Reflections & Doing More of What You Love
Ever found yourself obsessively checking your Strava splits, overthinking your to-do list, and wondering when life got so... serious?
Strap in, Fitties! This one’s a jumbo episode because, well… we got a bit carried away chatting all things health, mindset, and the madness of modern life!
We dive into how social media and over-reliance on our phones are frying our brains, and how stepping away - even for 36 hours - can offer huge perspective.
We talk about the importance of environments that support focus and mindfulness, and why creativity, play, and even doing things badly (hello sewing machines and pottery classes) are vital for emotional health.
Plus tips on reprogramming the reactive mind, learning to sit with discomfort rather than distracting from it, and recognising that overwhelm often stems from unmet emotional needs, not a lack of productivity hacks.
Whether it’s making space for language lessons, finding joy in nature, or reflecting with compassion instead of criticism, we hope this conversation helps you identify one thing you can put into action this week to support your health, happiness, and sanity.
Plus... why Matt confessed to checking himself out naked in the mirror (purely scientific, obviously 👀)
