Unfortunately, most people will be in the middle of the bell curve for most things in their life. At the same time (and perhaps because of) we’re afraid to express ourselves. In this week’s episode, Adam and Zac discuss making peace with the idea of not being ‘remarkable’ and becoming comfortable with being a little silly sometimes. Life is too short to take it completely seriously all of the time, it’s time to have a bit of fun!

The episode 43: Mediocrity & Self-Expression from the podcast Anyone's Guide to Wellbeing has a duration of 20:51. It was first published 22 Sep 20:30. The cover art and the content belong to their respective owners.

52.1: The Future of Mental Health and Wellbeing

The next two episodes of Anyone's Guide to Wellbeing cover a momentous occasion as Zac and Adam have now been recording the show for an entire year, and what a year it's been. There's been a lot of growth, change and work that's gone into the podcast, and there is a lot more to come, so that's why we have a two part episode on the future of mental health and wellbeing, and we hope you'll join us on this journey for many years to come.

51: Lying to Yourself

Confidence can be a difficult thing. It's good to be confident, but what if it comes from the wrong place? Sometimes it can be easy lie to yourself about your situation rather than face up to the things you need to change, and - without knowing it - you build your personality based on who you think you should be rather than who you are. Take back your confidence and allow yourself to be genuine; this episode should help you to rediscover what makes you, you. There are also plenty of batman references...

50: Deriding Others

It’s easy to find ourselves thinking that we’re better than others. Sometimes, we end up being derisive of other people publically. In this week’s episode, Adam and Zac discuss how deriding others is not only harmful, but is often in response to some underlying issues with our own self-worth. If you’re finding yourself being overly critical of others, perhaps it’s better to first look at whether you are ignoring some of your own flaws. This episode will help you work through how to be critical of others in a constructive way and avoid being derisive.

49: Overthinking

It can be hard to ‘turn your brain off’, going around in circles repeating scenarios, both past and future, that have no consequence outside of the mind. In this week’s episode, Adam and Zac discuss how thinking things through can help you prepare or process but how that can drift into the realms of ‘overthinking’. They highlight how this can have negative effects on your life and suggest ways you can respond when you find your brain is on overdrive. Time to switch your brain off for a bit and let Anyone’s Guide to Wellbeing do the thinking for you.
