Hand on Heart

Welcome to the Hand on Heart podcast, where we’ll spend the next however-many episodes unpacking ... well, the heart! You, your self, relationships, friendships, work, thinking patterns.... everything that your heart might encounter. Your heavily-therapised host - that's me, Vic - will be touching on themes that you might find useful, if you're a human being alive in 2025. We'll get into how to overcome heartbreak and finally get over your ex, how to let go of self-loathing or raise your self-esteem, and overall how to do our best to become a more self-accepting and (hopefully) well-rounded individual. If you're looking for a validating, healing podcast that makes you feel less alone or weird, then look no further because you've come to the right place. Hosted on Acast.

    Love Your Nervous System to Love Yourself

    In this episode Vic reminds us how important it is to be calm and regulated if we want a successful journey to self-love. To experience calmness we want to work with one specific part of our body: the nervous system! With a dysregulated nervous system, we cannot find the breathing room to respond to life rather than reacting to it, so we keep the same old thought and behaviour patterns. Since all of us here on this self-love journey are about breaking destructive patterns, we need to regulate our nervous systems to do that. Vic gives you tips and tricks for nervous system regulation and encourages you to build your own toolbox for keeping calm and grounded no matter what is going on!

These are things that fill your cup so that you can give to others without depleting your energy too much! Having self-love practices grounds our self-love journey in a physical reality, allows us to truly be present and mindful during joyous moments, and builds a positive feedback loop for feeling good and doing good towards ourselves.

    How to Stop People Pleasing

    Why do we people please? Why do we project expectations and opinions on to others that they might not even have? In this episode, Vic clears all that up and helps you see that your people pleasing tendencies are not as helpful as you might think: they don’t protect you from rejection, but they do block you from authentic connection. If you want to show up more authentically, have deeper connections, and take up more space, this episode is for you. Let’s dive into it.

    How to Accept Yourself as You Are

    Will you ever be enough for yourself? Do you struggle to give yourself the grace you give to others? In this episode, Vic reminds us that we know ourselves more intimately than we know anybody. That means we have to come eye to eye with our flaws, demons and dark side. This can be one reason why we struggle to accept ourselves, give ourselves grace, and find it hard to like or love ourselves. In this episode, you’ll learn why we are conditioned to not accept ourselves, what impact this has on our lives, and how you can go about accepting your flaws and limitations whilst taking responsibility for the things you want (and deserve) to change.

    What is Self-Care and How Do We Do It?

    Self-care is not always comfy and cosy! In this episode, Vic reminds us that self-care is more about living a life that is balanced and harmonised rather than succumbing to the latest trendy workout or beauty subscription box. Caring for ourselves can rarely be as neatly packaged and marketed as we might think, and often it involves doing the things we don’t want to do: booking our appointments, cleaning our living spaces, changing lightbulbs! A life caring for the self is treading the rope between responsibility on the one hand and joy on the other, and Vic is here to help you figure out how to walk that tightrope.

In this ep Vic is here to guide you through how to act more compassionately towards yourself and why it is so important to do so.
