In Our Nature
Why do we feel so overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected and lost...and what does that have to do with what's happening on our planet?
This show explores the hidden connections and deeper patterns that are forming our inner struggles and the wider crises unfolding around us. From mental health to ecological collapse, productivity culture to planetary grief, from burnout to reconnection, join me to poke around in the stories, systems and patterns shaping this extraordinary time...
...and then let's riff on what becomes possible when we stop pretending it’s fine and feel the feels.
Your host is me: Siobhán Friel. I'm a mental health practitioner, a Work That Reconnects facilitator and I was probably a lavender plant in a past life.
This podcast offers a way to make sense of your inner and outer world, especially if you were shaped by capitalism (like me) and not by a lineage of ecological literacy, love and wisdom.
You haven't missed the boat. There are many boats and this is one. Get in.

Should We Try to Manage, Control or Change Our Thoughts? (Part 2)
Hang out with me for the second part of our two-parter on 'thought work' and what we should be doing with this incessant, powerful thought-thingamabob.
Come and explore:
- A round-up from part one where we took a look at what thought is and when it may be helpful or not to poke it and try and change it
- How to tell the difference between helpful or unhelpful 'thought work'
- What to do if you get it wrong (you can't get it wrong!)
- How it looks to me and what I 'do'
- Anxious Alice gives a great example around 'changing beliefs'
