What happens when a physiotherapist, a psychologist, and a podcast host walk into a room? You get a candid and insightful conversation, exploring everything from the quirks of friendship dynamics to the complexities of modern technology's grip on our lives. With Toby, a skilled physiotherapist, and Jack, a perceptive psychologist, joining me, we unpack the spontaneity and authenticity that fuel our connections, both personal and professional. Jack shares his newfound drive for creative projects, highlighting the clarity and confidence that come from expressing oneself through writing and speaking.

Screen time—it’s a modern-day conundrum we all grapple with. Yet, how much is too much? In this episode, we swap humorous stories of viral video distractions and confess our screen time habits. We weigh the demands of work against personal discipline and consider the health implications of our digital obsessions. From exploring blue light glasses as potential saviors for our weary eyes to debating head sizes for glasses, we navigate these topics with a blend of humor and mindful reflection.

We also venture into the emotional landscape, exploring the necessity of vulnerability and personal space for high-functioning individuals. Through personal anecdotes and professional insights, we examine how attachment styles and early life experiences shape our relationship dynamics, often leading to self-sabotaging behaviors if left unaddressed. By understanding our emotional triggers and the importance of holistic approaches to mental health, we aim to foster deeper connections and personal growth. Join us as we unravel these themes, offering a mix of levity and profound insight into the human experience.
