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.

Finding Peace From Those Pesky Intrusive Thoughts
Do you suffer from repetitive, ultra-distressing, shit-feeling thoughts? You're not alone, friend. Today we're talking about those peace-stealing intrusive thoughts. Join me.
Come and explore:
- Why we get intrusive thoughts
- How we innocently keep them in place by adding extra meaning to them (again, innocently)
- How to see intrusive thoughts in a fresh way and find a new freedom
- What a hologram hedge maze and BBQ-fork-wielding murderers have to do with intrusive thoughts
And:
- Massive overshares from me including my intrusive thoughts
- Anxious Alice doesn't listen at all and goes in to a spiral of despair. Oh, Alice.
- The hangout is soon! Head to siobhanfriel.com/hangout to get details and join us if you want to.
