《一個人練習》是一個分享故事，也記錄自己一路成長的地方。那些生活裡看似平凡的時刻，我想重新看看當時的自己，也記錄現在的我，如何理解那些曾經發生過的事。有些故事有了答案，有些依然沒有。沒關係。我只想好好地把它們說出來，也許在我的故事裡，你也會想起自己的。 Spotify / Apple Podcasts 首頁再精簡一點，我甚至更喜歡這版： Short Version Practicing Being Me is where I share the stories that shaped me, reflect on who I’m becoming, and maybe remind you of your own along the way. No perfect answers. Just stories, reflection, and the practice of growing into myself. Maybe somewhere in my stories, you’ll find a little space for your own, too. Every story brings me a little closer to myself.

    Road Trip Stories | EP06 | I Didn't Understand What the Trip Left Behind Until It Ended

    Some journeys end. Some relationships are only just beginning. In this episode, Mandy reflects on what travel truly leaves behind. Not only photographs, souvenirs or thousands of unsorted images, but people: someone thinking of you while driving, hearing a song and remembering you, retelling the stories you missed, or carrying a passing joke all the way home. Perhaps belonging is not simply having someone physically beside us. It is knowing that even in our absence, someone remembers us and keeps our place. Why Mandy had to leave Australia before the rest of the group How a group chat kept her present in a journey she could no longer physically join Why a Spotify playlist became part of what she left behind in the car How one lamb-hotpot dinner restored the stories she had missed The tenderness hidden inside a 1.5-litre bottle of Australian water Why the value of travel extends beyond destinations, photographs and souvenirs How Mandy’s support-work experience shaped her understanding of belonging Why “I thought of you” can be one of the quietest forms of connection Think of someone who recently came to mind when you saw something and thought, “They would love this.” Send it to them and say: “I saw this and thought of you.” In this episodeThis week's practice Belonging is not only having someone beside you. It is being remembered even when you are not there.

    公路旅行故事｜ep06｜旅行結束後，我才知道留下的是什麼

    有些旅行結束了，有些關係才剛開始。 這一集，Mandy 想談的不是旅行去了哪裡，而是旅行結束後留下了誰。有人聽見一首歌時想到你，有人願意重新講一次你錯過的故事，也有人把你隨口說的一句話放在心上。 或許，Belonging 並不只是有人在身邊。真正的歸屬感是：即使你不在現場，仍然有人記得你，並替你保留一個位置。 為什麼 Mandy 必須比其他人更早離開澳洲 一個旅行群組如何讓離開的人繼續留在旅程裡 為什麼一份 Spotify 歌單成了 Mandy 留在車上的痕跡 朋友如何用一頓羊肉爐補回她錯過的旅程 一瓶 1.5 公升澳洲水背後的溫柔 旅行的價值為什麼不只在景點、照片與紀念品 Support Worker 經驗如何讓 Mandy 重新理解 Belonging 「我想到你」為什麼是一段關係最安靜的證明 想一想，最近是否有一個人讓你看見某樣東西時，立刻覺得：「他一定會喜歡。」 如果有，傳給他，並告訴他：「我看到這個的時候，想到你。」 Belonging，不只是有人陪；而是即使你不在現場，大家還是記得你。

    Road Trip Stories | EP05 | Freedom Needs Boundaries

    Mature freedom is not merely the freedom to have fun. It is the willingness to stop when someone says, “Please stop.” n this episode, Mandy reflects on intention, impact and personal boundaries. Charlie's intentions were not malicious, but good intentions do not guarantee that everyone will enjoy the same interaction. Respecting a boundary does not restrict freedom. It creates enough safety for everyone to be themselves. A mature relationship is not one in which we never misjudge a boundary. It is one in which we are willing to stop, listen and understand each other again when a boundary becomes visible. How Charlie transformed a quiet creek visit into an energetic water game The subtle moment when Little Ken's laughter became discomfort How a four-year-old crossed a language barrier to say “Please stop” Why Kitty did not immediately solve the problem for her child The simple logic behind “Does Uncle not have any friends?” Why harmless intentions do not automatically create a harmless impact How expressing and respecting a boundary can allow a relationship to continue Why mature freedom includes the ability to stop Think about a recent interaction. Did another person's expression, tone or words already communicate, “I don't like this” or “I need to stop”? Did you notice?

    公路旅行故事｜ep05｜自由，也需要界線

    真正成熟的自由，不是只有自己玩得開心，而是當別人說「Please stop」時，你願意停下來。 這一集，Mandy 想談談意圖、影響與界線。沒有惡意，不代表每個人都會喜歡相同的互動方式；尊重別人的界線，也不是限制自由，而是讓每一個人都能安全、自在地做自己。 真正成熟的關係，不是永遠不會踩到彼此的界線，而是當界線出現時，我們願意停下來，重新理解彼此。 Charli如何把安靜的溪邊變成一場水花遊戲 小 Ken的笑容為什麼慢慢消失 四歲孩子如何跨越語言說出「Please stop」 Kitty 為什麼沒有立刻替孩子解決問題 「叔叔是不是沒有朋友」背後單純卻深刻的邏輯 沒有惡意，為什麼不等於沒有造成不舒服 表達界線與尊重界線，如何讓關係繼續 真正成熟的自由，為什麼也包含願意停下來 回想最近一次與別人的互動。對方是否曾經透過表情、語氣或一句話告訴你：「我不喜歡」或「我想停一下」？ 當時的你，有沒有注意到？

    Road Trip Stories | EP04 | Welcome to Woop Woop

    Happiness does not always resemble the life we once imagined. In this episode, I reflect on one-bucket showers, apparently absent kangaroos, and evenings without Wi-Fi—and reconsider whether happiness comes from accumulating greater convenience or from feeling at home in the life we already have. I might not choose Charlie's life. But I began to understand that happiness has no standard appearance. The real question is not whether we live in the city or the countryside, in a large house or a small one. It is: what kind of life allows us to feel most like ourselves? What Australians mean when they say “Woop Woop” The kangaroos that seemed to take three days off Whether a ten-minute walk still counts as “right outside” The unexpected stress of taking a one-bucket shower Why convenience and happiness are not always the same How to recognise a life that genuinely fits the person living it What remains when we stop comparing our lives with other people's Set aside other people's definitions of success and happiness for a moment, and ask: What kind of life allows me to feel most like myself? Happiness may be the ability to wake each day and wholeheartedly inhabit the life in front of you. Tell me: If you did not have to meet anyone else's expectations, what would your ideal ordinary day look like?

    公路旅行故事 | ep04 | Welcome to Woop Woop

    幸福，不一定長得像我們想像的樣子。 這一集，我們從請假的袋鼠、一桶水的洗澡方式和沒有 Wi-Fi 的夜晚，重新思考幸福究竟是擁有更多便利，還是少一點比較與追趕，多一點對現在生活的喜歡。 Mandy 不一定會選擇查理的生活，但她開始明白：幸福沒有標準外型。重要的不是住在城市或鄉下，也不是房子大或小，而是哪一種生活，讓你最像自己。 澳洲人說的 Woop Woop 到底是什麼地方 查理家門口「請假三天」的野生袋鼠 走十分鐘，還能不能算家門口 一桶熱水洗澡帶來的文化與生活衝擊 便利是否真的等於幸福 不模仿別人，也能喜歡自己的生活 哪一種日子，會讓你活得最像自己 先暫時放下別人對成功與幸福的定義，問問自己： 哪一種生活，讓我最像自己？ 幸福，是每天醒來的時候，你願意過今天的生活。 留言告訴我：如果不需要符合任何人的期待，你理想的一天會怎麼度過？

    Life Stories | EP03 | I Took a Five-Year-Old to His First Movie—and Ended Up Seeing the Adult World

    What moves us is rarely only the story. It is the place within us that the story happens to touch. I took a five-year-old to his first cinema experience expecting the children to cry. Instead, I was the one who became emotional. Through one children’s film, I found myself thinking about disability representation, teenagers being honest about what they love, livestreaming emergencies, and the complicated line between protection and intervention. This episode asks what stories teach children about the world—and what our strongest reactions reveal about us. In This Episode Taking a five-year-old to his first cinema experience Why I expected a room full of children to become chaotic What teenagers taught me about being honest about what we love Natural representation of disability in children’s stories Why two adults cried at different moments in the same scene What livestreaming an emergency may quietly normalise The difference between protection and intervention How media helps children understand the world Why our strongest reactions often reveal something personal The Backstreet Boys surprise waiting in the soundtrack

    人生軌跡 | ep03｜陪五歲孩子看人生第一場電影，我反而看見了大人的世界

    我們真正被打中的，從來不只是故事，而是故事剛好碰到了心裡的某一塊地方 我開始思考：當孩子仍在理解「正常的人遇到危機會怎麼做」，故事如何呈現旁觀、拍攝與幫助？當我們遇見陌生的世界，第一個反應應該是進入、研究和改變，還是先問：「他們真的需要我們嗎？」 這不是要求每一部兒童電影都完美，也不是把一部娛樂作品當成人類學紀錄片。只是當一群孩子專心看著螢幕時，我突然更理解：媒體不只在說故事，也在悄悄回答——這個世界怎麼運作？誰值得尊重？什麼叫成長？面對差異與危機時，我們可以怎麼選擇？ 而電影散場後，五歲孩子開開心心地走出去，我則立刻去查原聲帶，才發現主題曲是 Backstreet Boys 的新歌。 難怪。粉絲濾鏡瞬間開到最大。 這一集，你會聽見 ● Mandy 陪五歲孩子第一次進電影院前，做了哪些錯誤預測 ● 為什麼中文版場次裡出現了意外多的青少年 ● 一部兒童電影如何讓兩個大人在不同地方落淚 ● 身心障礙角色如何自然地存在於故事之中 ● 為什麼同一段成長故事，會碰到每個人不同的內在經驗 ● 危機現場的直播情節，為何讓 Mandy 感到不舒服 ● 「研究與保護」何時可能悄悄變成介入與控制 ● 兒童媒體如何參與孩子世界觀的形成 ● Backstreet Boys 如何成為這場觀影最後的驚喜
