Send us a Text Message. Well, firstly an apology is in order! It's not great when life gets in the way of working on this Podcast, and we are sorry that there has been an unintended week's gap. But what are you in for with this episode?

Send us a Text Message. Social media has long been cited as a contributor to negative mental health but just how much are we taking this on board? Even if we're not dealing with cyber bullying or detrimental comparisons to others, just the amount of time we spend scrolling each week could be taking us away from the much-needed place of just 'being'. In this episode, Maz and Beck share their experiences of being tied to their phones and widen the discussion to other habits that have formed over time that negatively impact the journey of reaching their full potential.  Listen now! #soci ..read more

Send us a Text Message. Do you know what's lurking under the covers of a peaceful society?  That's bubbling away for a person who presents themselves as the epitome of calm? Apparently there is a roaring rage that's driving us all to distraction - and rage rooms! According to Le Monde, we are all becoming more angry.  Maz and Beck discuss why this might be, their personal experiences and their thoughts on the increasing trend to break someone else's things.  Listen now! #rageroom #balance #serenity #introvert #fullpotential #wellbeingpodcast #mentalhealthpodcast #selfgrowth ..read more

How much do you value (consensual) touch?  Do you shy away from it? Find it awkward?  Or is it an integral part of your relationship with others?  In this episode Maz and Beck start by updating everyone on their week; sharing their progress and thoughts on diet, exercise, therapy and forward-planning... And then discuss a recent compilation of over 250 studies on the importance of touch. From newborns to adults how can we all benefit?  Touch has been largely underrated - especially with the strong emphasis on talk therapy, and Covid preventing close contact in recent yea ..read more

Weeeee're Baaaack! And a huge apology is in order if you've been waiting patiently for the new series to begin! Now, how much is your past dictating your actions today? And how do you make sure you really focus on the things that underpin you having a strong and happy future?  In this episode we, Maz and Beck cover what we've been up to and share our approach to the above. We thought we'd only need a week or so and can't believe just how much time has passed! (sorry again!) And have you noticed we're now on series two? So, what can you expect from the next series? (spoiler alert, it's ..read more

What do you do on a grey day? Or when others are bloody miserable but you don't want to be? This episode was recorded on a really rainy day, which sparked Maz and Beck to discuss what they do not to be brought down.  Nothing fancy! But perhaps you're able to relate - if you do (or don't!), let us know!  Listen now! Oh, and we will be taking a break next week to do some future planning. If this leaks into the week after please bear with us. It's important to us that we're of value.  And if you have any suggestions to help us be this - get in touch (details below)  #feel ..read more

We have a confession and apology to make Maz and Beck let planning and life admin take over last week, resulting in the loss of time to record a podcast episode. Sorry! But what have Maz and Beck been focusing on?  In this episode we discuss our approach to putting elements of our collective and individual lives under the microscope - sharing the why, the what and the how.  Listen now! #lifeadmin #homelifematters #fullpotential #wellbeingpodcast #selfgrowth #oddonesoutpod #oddoneout #mindexpansion #spotifypodcast #applepodcast #newepisode  ------ Listen to all podcast epi ..read more

Music.  What role does it play in your life?  Does it ease your stress?  Lift your mood? Speak for your heart? Calm your soul? Is it for you only? A contributor towards you feeling like an Odd one Out? Or does it bring you together with others in a way you couldn't experience otherwise? For Maz and Beck it sits alongside food, water and air as a fundamental part of their lives.  And so it's about time we covered its importance in an episode... Listen now! #music #musicislife #musicismedicine #fullpotential #wellbeingpodcast #selfgrowth #oddonesoutpod #oddoneout #mindex ..read more

Let's talk about nutrition... At time of recording it's January, we're still thinking about new year's resolutions, and if we're looking at reaching our full potential we can't really ignore the role of nutrition on mental and physical health.  In some ways even what we eat and the diet/s we choose to follow can contribute to being an odd one out.  In this episode Maz and Beck share their thoughts on nutrition, their experiences and beliefs, and how it all contributes to their overall wellbeing.
