Here’s the truth no one wants to admit: The people you love most often disappoint you the deepest - not because you’ve done anything wrong, but because you’re finally growing beyond the version of you they were comfortable with. This episode is for the moment you’re done pretending, done making excuses, and done shrinking yourself just to keep the peace. In this raw, unfiltered conversation, I break down: 🔥 Why the people you help the most can hurt you the hardest 🔥 Why friends disappear when you start healing or rising 🔥 Why family isn’t always your loudest supporter 🔥 The difference between someone who BENEFITS from you vs. BELIEVES in you 🔥 The subtle betrayals and silent exits no one talks about 🔥 And the one realisation that finally sets you free No sugar-coating. No fluff. Just truth. Losing people isn’t failure - it’s feedback. Proof you’re rising… and not everyone is meant to rise with you. If you’re growing or stepping into a stronger version of yourself, this episode will feel like a light switching on. Hit play. This one hits deep.

In this episode, I take you on a journey back to the moments that wake us up - the glances, the collisions, the sparks, the truths we try to outrun. “Someday Soon” is a story about connection in all its forms: the person who shakes your soul, the moment that cracks you open, the feeling that reminds you that you’re still alive. From the quiet shifts to the world-shattering ones, this episode dives into what happens when something or someone arrives in your life and rearranges everything you thought you knew. Love, longing, healing, purpose, presence… it’s all here. You’ll explore the difference between breathing and living, what it means to rebuild yourself piece by piece, and how powerful it is to be truly seen. You’ll sit with the truths we don’t say out loud - the ache, the tenderness, the awakening and the hope that follows. At its heart, “Someday Soon” is about finding the thing that pulls you forward again. The spark. The connection. The future you couldn’t picture until now. If you’ve ever felt the world fall away in someone’s presence… if you’ve ever been brought back to life by love, passion, purpose, or a single unexpected moment… if you’re ready to believe that your story is still unfolding. This episode is for you. Settle in. Breathe. Feel every word. Your “someday soon” is on its way.

You’re not stuck. You’re addicted - to the same patterns, the same people, the same pain, and the same story you keep repeating to yourself. This episode pulls back the curtain on why you stay in places you’ve outgrown, why comfort feels safer than change, and why you keep choosing the familiar even when it hurts. And listen… If you’re easily offended, this episode might not be for you. Or maybe - just maybe - it’s exactly the one you need. Because this isn’t gentle. It’s honest. It’s confronting. And it will hit you in all the places you’ve been avoiding. If you’re ready to stop calling it “stuck” and start calling it what it really is, press play. It’s time to break the cycle and choose the version of yourself you’ve been running from

Standing at a crossroads - overwhelmed, foggy, unsure what comes next? This episode is your reminder that you’re not stuck… you’re shifting. We dive into the weight of uncertainty, the whisper of intuition, the power of small steps, and the truth that a crossroads isn’t a dead end - it’s an invitation. Take a breath, listen in, and step into the version of you that’s ready for something new. Your next chapter starts here.

In this episode, I share a grounded, honest reflection drawn from my own experiences with truth, manipulation, and the powerful way karma has a habit of revealing what’s real. If you’ve ever had someone twist your story, misrepresent your truth, or try to control the narrative of your life, this episode is your reminder YOUR truth doesn’t need defending - it only needs time. With calm, heartfelt storytelling and gentle music transitions, I explore: ✨ Why people distort the truth when they lose control ✨ How manipulation stems from fear, not strength ✨ What karma actually is (and isn’t) ✨ Why staying grounded in your truth outweighs fighting lies ✨ How integrity becomes its own quiet form of protection This short, meditative episode offers clarity and calm for anyone reclaiming their voice, stepping out of old narratives, or rising into a more authentic version of themselves. Let life do the heavy lifting. You just keep walking in your truth. If it resonates, share it with someone who needs the reminder that karma always restores balance — and truth always comes home.

Let’s get honest - most people aren’t stuck. They’re just choosing everything except themselves. In this episode, I’m taking you straight into the heart of real self-growth: your choices, your standards, your boundaries, your power. This isn’t theory, it’s lived experience - the bruises, the breakthroughs, the resets, the rebuilding. If you’re tired of carrying everyone else’s expectations, sick of shrinking, or done settling for emotional scraps, this conversation will hit you exactly where you need it. We talk resilience, boundaries, emotional healing, self-respect, transformation, and what actually happens when you stop performing for approval and start living for purpose. This episode is for people who are ready - truly ready — to choose themselves again. Hit play. It’s time.

Your energy is sacred - it’s the foundation of how you show up in the world. Yet too often, we give it away to people, habits, and situations that drain us. In this episode, I dive deep into the importance of protecting your energy - not out of fear or selfishness, but out of self-respect. I explore what it really means to set boundaries, to walk away from chaos, and to choose peace over pleasing others. This is a reminder that your light deserves to shine without being dimmed by the noise around you. It’s time to reclaim your calm, your clarity, and your power. ✨ Listen now and remember: protecting your energy isn’t about building walls - it’s about honouring your worth.

For years, many of us believe home is a place - a building, a town, a set of familiar walls. But what happens when that place no longer feels safe, when the walls start to echo with versions of who we used to be? In this deeply personal episode, I unpack the true meaning of home - beyond bricks and memories. I share my journey of letting go of old definitions, finding belonging in connection, and realising that home isn’t somewhere you find but it’s something you feel. This is a story of rediscovery, healing, and reclaiming your sense of self. It’s an invitation to stop searching outside yourself and start coming home to who you are. ✨ Listen now and remember: home isn’t a place — it’s a feeling.

There comes a point in everyone’s life when something inside you says — enough. Enough pretending. Enough shrinking. Enough carrying the weight of what no longer serves you. In this episode, I get real about reaching that breaking point - not as a moment of weakness, but as a moment of power. I share how choosing yourself, setting boundaries, and walking away from what drains you can be the most courageous act of self-love there is. This is for anyone who’s tired of settling, tired of hiding, and ready to reclaim their energy, their worth, and their voice. It’s raw. It’s honest. And it might just be the reminder you’ve been waiting for. ✨ Listen now and remember: you don’t have to carry it all anymore. Enough really is enough.

Some endings don’t break you - they free you. In this episode, I explore how letting go of people, roles, and relationships that no longer fit can open space for peace, growth, and self-discovery. Because sometimes what feels like loss is really life clearing space for what’s true. ✨ Not everyone you lose is a loss - some are lessons that lead you home.

Following on from Part 1, The Illusion of “Good Vibes Only,” I dive deeper into what happens after we stop pretending everything’s fine. This episode explores how to move from forced positivity to real, grounded peace - where healing comes from honesty, not performance. ✨ Because peace isn’t found by avoiding the dark - it’s found by learning to breathe within it.

We’ve all heard it — “Stay positive.” “Keep your vibes high.” “Just focus on the good.” But what happens when positivity becomes a mask? When the pressure to stay “in the light” makes us disconnect from what’s real?   In this episode, I unpack the hidden cost of forced positivity -  how “good vibes only” can silence real emotions and block true healing. Through personal reflection and a guided moment, I invite you to slow down, feel deeply, and remember that it’s okay not to be okay.   Because peace isn’t found in pretending everything’s fine - it’s found in accepting what is.   ✨ Real strength isn’t in avoiding the dark, but in learning to walk through it.   Stay tuned for Part 2, where I dive deeper into how to move from forced light to genuine peace — and how to build a grounded, honest kind of positivity that lasts.

You’ve walked through storms that should’ve broken you—and yet, here you are. This episode is for the part of you that’s tired but still trying. This episode will remind you that real strength isn’t about never falling - it’s about rising again. You always did. And you always will.

This might be one of the most important truths you’ll ever hear - your life changes the moment you start believing in yourself. Not halfway. Not when things are perfect. But now as you are. In this episode, I talk about what it really means to romanticise your life not in a fantasy sense, but in a way that helps you see the value in your own story. It’s about taking ownership, trusting your gut, and stepping into the main role instead of watching from the sidelines. If you’ve been holding back because of fear, doubt, or the opinions of others, this one’s for you. Because nothing changes until you decide to back yourself. This isn’t a pep talk. It’s a reminder. You’ve got one life, so make it count

In this heartfelt and empowering episode of Why So Glum Chum, I explore one of life’s most profound truths — that real acceptance can’t be earned. Through calm reflection and soulful insight, I remind is that our worth isn’t defined by others’ approval, but by our willingness to be authentic and true to ourselves. Denis delves into the pain of seeking acceptance from family, friends, and society — and the freedom that comes when we stop trying to fit into someone else’s idea of who we should be. This episode is a gentle but powerful reminder that we are already enough, just as we are.

🎙️ Episode 1: 27,375 In this first episode of Why So Glum, Chum?, I explore the idea that the average human life lasts around 27,375 days — and ask the question: how are we spending them? Through honest reflection, humour, and heart, I dive into the weight of everyday life, the beauty in small moments, and the importance of noticing what truly matters. It’s a reminder that even on the heavy days, there’s still light to be found — and that every single day is another chance to begin again.
