My Top Five Toxic Relationship Traits

In this episode, I chat about some of my behaviours that contributed to making my relationships toxic. At the time, I did not realise how toxic these behaviours were. But with the benefit of hindsight, I am able to embark on a full reflection and analysis in this episode. Enjoy!

Season 1

Episode 10: Anxiety the Feeling vs Anxiety the Disorder

In this episode I chat about the difference between feeling anxiety and having an anxiety disorder. I share some of my experiences living with Generalized Anxiety Disorder.

Episode 9 (On Depression)

In this episode I talk about how I came to the realisation that I was exhibiting depressive symptoms and how it led me to seek help. I discuss how the depressive symptoms manifested themselves in and impacted on my life. Disclaimer: Please don't use my story to diagnose yourself. Instead, if you feel like you are not okay, go see a mental health professional.

Episode 8 (On Distress Tolerance: Dealing With Difficult Emotions in a Non-Toxic Way)

In this rather long episode Kat and I discuss how you can deal with distressing moments in a way that you won't regret down the line. I'm sure many of us have often turned to unhealthy coping mechanisms when we were not feeling great. We have a look at what alternative mechanisms you can employ to ensure that you respond appropriately to whatever is distressing you. Enjoy!

Episode 7 (On Relationships: Just Because You Can, Doesn't Mean You Should)

Join me in this really fun and funny episode where I share five lessons I learnt from my previous relationship whilst trying to paint a picture I found on the internet.

Episode 6 (What's Love Got to do With it?)

We tried out the 36 Questions to Fall in Love (plus 4 minutes of staring intensely into each others eyes) and it was quite the experience. I definitely know my bestie better. But whether or not I'm in love with him now is something I'll have to think a little more about. Enjoy!

Episode 5 Part 2 (...Love, Love, Love)

We continue our chat on co-dependency and briefly discuss physical intimacy and what it takes to make a relationship last.

Episode 5 Part 1 (To be Young and in Love)

Thato and Nakisa have been together for four years. That's a really long time in my books. Hence, I decided to sit down with them to find out what their secret is. The result is a funny, warm, and heart-felt episode that will leave you wanting to be in love too. Enjoy!

Episode 4 (A Friendship Dilemma: Would You Rather?)

My sister and I consider some friendship dilemma scenarios and what we would do in each case.

Episode 3 (It's Not You. It's Me: On Breakups)

Whether you do the breaking up or are the one being broken up with, it sucks either way. In this episode I chat about some of the breakups I've dealt with and how they have impacted me.
