Humility

Sideways ·

2021/10/28

This week we're talking about humility. What is it, how do we get it, and why does it matter.It's also our 100th episode so, as you can imagine, we were partying like you wouldn't believe.So much so in fact that we strayed into the area of hernias, our three favourite pigs, and a lot of other nonsense that we know you've come to expect.Thank you to all of you who listen. We really didn't imagine we'd develop such a great swathe of listeners. We value you more than we

Ego

Sideways ·

2021/09/23

Growth Mindset v Fixed Mindset

Sideways ·

2021/09/09

This week we're talking about the difference it can make to overcoming mental health difficulties when you believe that you can.While trusting the process of change won't be enough on its own for most of us a belief that we are unchangeable will definitely block progress.I have a new box of pencils, and Martin celebrates the completion of a project.We're on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/sideways_podcast/We're on TikTok @landiwellbeingYou can email us at

Sympathy & Empathy

Unrelenting Standards

2021/06/17

This week we're talking about why some of us have a tendency to hold ourselves to impossibly high standards and take responsibility for things that don't work out even when they really have very little to do with us.There's also quite a lot of football chat, most of which is in context rather than indulgent, much of which is also ridiculous.We're on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/sideways_podcast/We're on TikTok @landiwellbeingYou can email us at
