Welcome to episode 89 of the podcast, I appreciate the ongoing support and love! In this episode I go deep and personal as I describe the build up to my first panic attack, what it was like to have one, and restarting a new therapy journey with CBT. I hope you get some value from this episode and it is able to give you some insight if a loved one has panic attacks, or helps you understand more about yourself if you have them too :)

Internally in my own head I’ve been pessimistic and negative until the last 12 months ago where I really started to shift my perspective in life towards positivity. Up until that point I was tired of platitudes and bumper sticker remarks about positivity until I realised there is some practicality and concreteness to positivity. So this episode is me sharing my life before changing my mindset and the principles that I think anyone can pick up and adopt into their own lives to help them everyday! I hope you enjoy the episode and please hit me up on Twitter @knowyourselfpod with any feedback :)

It’s finally recorded, and posted! A lot of you have been asking me for a while how to start your own podcast, this always makes my day when people ask me because I’m able to give back and introduce people to such a wonderful medium of content! Podcasting can be intimidating, people use a lot of big words, and it can seem like an insiders club if you know what you are doing. Here’s the secret though, I don’t know what I’m doing. What I will tell you in this podcast episode though is everything I have learnt to date. I will teach you which podcasting platform to start on, I will teach you how to market your podcast, I will teach you where to podcast artwork made, I will teach you how pillars of content work, and how you can use your podcast to make a blog and much much more! I literally share all the goodies! It meant a lot to me doing this episode and I’m really passionate about what I’ve done so if you get any value out of this podcast episode please refer onto a friend or family member as it would mean

I have done what I think is my favourite EVER solo podcast episode, I was in the zone for some reason tonight and dropped some major gems about self care and journaling that I wanted to share with you all, I got a little bit excited I’m not going to lie and wanted to release the episode tonight!

Know Yourself - Episode 84 - Anxiety & Panic Attacks - I chat a little bit about my experience with Anxiety and PTSD to advise on some of my techniques to combat and help myself when an anxiety or panic attack hits

Can you believe it guys? It’s been a year today since I started Know Yourself in my Kitchen!!! I want to say a massive thank you to everyone who has listened religiously to the podcast and has been so supportive it means a lot. If you haven’t already, hit me up on twitter at @knowyourselfpod or Instagram @dudale92 to say hello so I can thank you

I had the distinct pleasure and opportunity last year in November to go to a Time To Change event in Redditch where I got to speak with one of the Mental health champions on stage in front of a live audience! The interview is around 20 minutes and we cover off vulnerability with men, Burning out, and sharing stories about both of our backgrounds. After 20 mins we open up the floor for Q&A and take some questions from the audience which was really cool. I hope you enjoy this episode and thank you so much for listening

Hi guys! Thanks for checking out this episode, it’s in response to some feedback I got in the comments section of Instagram asking if I could do another video on conditions of worth, I stripped the audio from that episode to make this podcast episode so I hope you enjoy, any questions hit me up on twitter @knowyourselfpod or @dudale92 on Instagram

Know Yourself Episode 80 - This is a pretty cool throwback episode to when I appeared on the Mental Health Book Club podcast. If you are new to the podcast this is a pretty good episode to catch my story with my mental health and emotional development journey and to see what I’m about

Hey Hey, What’s up Lovely people??? I’ve got such a special podcast episode for you on Know Yourself! This lady I had the pleasure of interviewing is 26 and is an author, CEO of Das Media Group, Global influencer, HuffPost contributor, Speaker, advocate for Equality, and much much more. . Shinjini Das is not a person to overlook, her energy and charisma of having a Go-Getter attitude is quite something to reflect on, and I implore you if you haven’t listened to the podcast before or are a little bit curious that now is the time to check it out. There have been so many great guests recently and with Shinjini joining us on Episode 79 there is lots of awesome content to give yourself a treat with! . Shinjini talks quite candidly about ambition, learning to fall in love with yourself, coming from an immigrant background, making it in the media from 0 followers to have over 100K, Entrepreneurship, authenticity, and empowering men and women. What was so refreshing was how we chopped it up about pushing away from t

Woop woop! It’s Thursday which means a brand new podcast episode for Know Yourself

Good evening lovely people! If you want a real guide on navigating self-care, mindfulness, and figuring out who you are then look no further! I interviewed Emma who founded not for profit ECBC Manchester for Episode 76

Good evening lovely people, I’ve got some great news which is that a new shiny podcast episode is now available on Know Yourself! I loved the interview Alicia and I did together, after talking I genuinely went away and looked at my life at lot differently than I had before. I realised that authenticity is a large part of being accepting with yourself and happy with yourself. . These are lovely words but what do they mean? Alicia talks about eating candy bars in the morning, piled up clothes where the washing basket used to be, mouldy bread in the fridge. Sometimes we don’t have it all together, and that’s ok. I got such comfort out of hearing that, it’s not an excuse to brush things off, rather a way of living that accepts sometimes there are more important things and that sometimes we might not always have our stuff together! ☺️ . It’s funny because authenticity allows our true selves to shine through too, how awesome would it be for example if you met the love of your life and you could be your quirky, geek

Robson Lindberg is awesome. Let’s just say that from the beginning. He’s a speaker, mental coach, podcaster, and the worlds TBI patient. What’s TBI? Traumatic Brain Injury. During an ice hockey game Robson was checked or to any folk who aren’t familiar with Ice Hockey terms was tackled. Robson’s was hit the ice so hard that he was out cold for over 2 minutes. That injury would go onto result in memory loss, degraded motor function, and mental health issues. . Robson was a great guest on the show because of the vulnerability, honesty, and level of detail he goes to about his rehab towards a life that enables his freedom and independence again

It’s Monday which means another brand new sparkly podcast episode! This interview like all of the others that have come before this, is important. In this episode I chat with Laura Barton who is an author of a book series called project Dermatillomania, Laura also works in communications for Canada BFRB which is a non-profit that looks at Body Focused Repetitive Behaviours such as skin picking. . For as long as I can remember I have picked my skin on my fingers, sometimes until they bleed. I do not like doing it, sometimes I don’t even know that I am doing it. I think because it’s been with me for so long I’ve not given it any attention and even hidden it from myself. I didn’t have any awareness about it until seeing Liz Atkin’s TedX talk called “Re-imagining Compulsive Skin Picking: Art for Recovery”. Then Laura reached out to me. . Talking to Laura on the podcast was the first time I had spoken about this in public with anyone but Laura’s knowledge on the subject and her own experience with Dermatillomani

Happy Thursday! I hope you are having the best day! I have a new podcast episode for you today with a lovely lady called Heidi Light all the way from Canada. Heidi is an author, counsellor, Reiki Master, Medium, and knowledge seeker on alternative methods of therapy. . This was an interesting episode for me because whilst I don’t have any knowledge about these practices and methodologies, I have my own opinions that were formed from a lack of knowledge on my part and also because traditional therapy has been able to help me. I’m open minded enough to understand that some people are helped in other ways which is why it was such a pleasure to have Heidi on the show. . Heidi walks us through what a Medium, Reiki Master, and energy healer does. Heidi chats about her book which explains in detail the ethical implications of working in the field of alternative medicine and therapies. We also talk about what to avoid when looking for mediums and Reiki Masters. I just found the whole conversation fascinating really

Hey what’s up you lovely people? I took a break from podcasting and posting over the weekend which topped up my tanks so that I can have the pleasure of letting you know that Episode 71 of the Know Yourself Podcast has now dropped which is an interview with Poet and author Dan Burton @danburton10
