shut off the noise
go quiet

we're hopeful
that change is good
we try to be understood
the meaning that's left behind
can find us in its sweet time

though oceans apart
we sing with one heart
to the language 🎶

we wrestle with our doubts
and wonder what it's all about

we try x again to run

and you roam and you roll, etc., etc.
you know how it goes

2nd time around
you got your feet on the ground
as you return to you

you find you
the stripped down you

you're under duress
you're feeling the rest of it
and you get down to the truth
you cast aside
you can try to hide it

it suits you well
the truth

yep, get by with a little help from me friends :)

Avoidance, Resistance & Procrastination BE GONE!

This podcast concerns a First-tier Tribunal Tax Chamber decision regarding an appeal against a Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) assessment. The appeal concerned a mass-marketed SDLT avoidance scheme promoted by Cornerstone Tax, which utilized a subsale of an equitable interest in a property. The Tribunal Judge found the scheme lacked technical merit and was a tax avoidance arrangement, ultimately striking out the appeal due to a lack of reasonable prospects of success. The decision hinged on interpretations of several sections within the Finance Act 2003, particularly regarding pre-completion transaction relief and anti-avoidance provisions. The Tribunal's judgment emphasizes a purposive approach to statutory construction, rejecting the appellants' arguments.

"Overwhelm, Not Laziness: Understanding and Overcoming Shutdown" explores the crucial difference between laziness and being overwhelmed. The podcast explains how overwhelming stress causes our executive function to shut down as a protective mechanism, creating a cycle of inaction and self-criticism. It provides a practical four-step plan to break free from overwhelm, including self-compassion techniques, stress identification strategies, brain first aid methods, and nervous system reboot practices. Additionally, it offers preventative measures like daily emotion check-ins, stress release routines focused on movement, nature, creativity, and connection, as well as boundary-setting skills to build resilience against future overwhelm. Throughout, the podcast emphasizes that overwhelm is a universal experience and encourages readers to approach themselves with kindness rather than judgment.

Overwhelm, Not Laziness: Understanding and Overcoming Shutdown

This episode is a raw, honest exploration of the journey from deep emotional pain to personal power. We dive into the shame that keeps us silent, the trauma stored in the body, and the unmet needs we’ve been conditioned to ignore. Through courageous truth-telling, somatic healing, and the radical act of asking for help, we begin to unlock the parts of ourselves we’ve hidden away. If you’ve ever felt unworthy, unseen, or stuck in cycles of addiction, avoidance, or burnout—this conversation is your permission slip to reclaim your worth, speak your needs, and step fully into who you’re here to be.

EP 16 - From Pain to Power:  Heal Shame, Own Needs & Find Self with Drew Wild

Lezly Kaye shares a raw and transformative journey of learning to thrive in business, motherhood, and love without sacrificing any of them. After building multimillion-dollar businesses and chasing external success to compensate for childhood wounds, she reached a breaking point that led to a spiritual awakening, deep self-reflection, and a radical reevaluation of her life. Through her experiences, she discovered that true fulfilment comes from integrating all aspects of life—relationships, motherhood, personal growth, and business—rather than compartmentalising them. Lezley emphasises the importance of self-awareness, conscious communication, and creating safe feedback loops in relationships, where both partners hold space for vulnerability, emotion, and reflection. By learning to self-source safety, navigate triggers, and embrace both her power and her desire to be held, she illustrates how it’s possible to build deep connection and love while still achieving professional success.

EP 33 - Thriving in Business, Motherhood & Love Without Sacrifice with Lezly Kaye

Dr. Reedy discusses the difference between therapy and a podcast. He explains that ultimately, we must face what is presenting itself to us in our lives. We must go in and through the pain and difficulty to discover news resources that lie within all of us. He talks about how we avoid parts of ourselves and repress feelings, characteristics, or traits in order to fit in and how the problems that bring us to therapy are a call to the hero’s adventure.

Responsibility and Acceptance - Ep 690

Why we seek approval and follow rules - even when they don’t serve us. Dominic and Ash explore Approval, Conventional, Dependent and Avoidance styles, their payoffs and costs, and the Constructive alternatives that work better.

'One of the most incredible and moving books that we've read, ever.' The High Performance Podcast 

 Sitting in the prison classroom each morning, reading the pages in my book, listening to the teacher, I could feel myself slowing down. I had achieved greatness. I had won three Wimbledon titles, two Aussie Opens, the US Open, two Davis Cups, an Olympic gold medal.

But where was I now?

Either I was some strange exception, a great man surrounded by lesser men, or I was not an exception at all. I fitted right in. And if I did, why was that?

Wimbledon champion at 17, six-time Grand Slam winner and former world number one – Boris Becker achieved unparalleled success, fame and wealth throughout his tennis career. But in April 2022, everything changed when he was sentenced to 30 months in prison over bankruptcy charges.

Inside offers a raw and unflinching account of Becker’s life behind bars, detailing the brutal realities of surviving two of the UK’s toughest prisons and the unexpected lessons in resilience that kept him going. Stripped of fame and fortune, Becker faced an entirely new world as inmate A2923EV, where nothing came easy.

More than a story of survival, Inside is about profound transformation. With brutal honesty, Becker reflects on the choices that led him to prison, confronting his mistakes and the price of fame. Through new relationships, hard-learned survival skills and the philosophy of Stoicism, he embarks on the difficult journey of rebuilding his life and shattered reputation.

This is the story of a legend who lost it all – how he survived, started again and found light in life’s darkest moments.

'It's a memoir, it's a thriller, it's a confessional, it's therapy. This book is unbelievable, [and] beautifully written. It couldn't be a crazier story…it's so gripping, I could not put it down.' Chris Evans
