In this episode of your third favourite above average but infinitely curious podcast DIMED OUT...



Following my diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis I have decided to undergo HSCT (Hematopoietic stem cell transplantation).



I'll be receiving treatment at Clinica Ruiz in Puebla, Mexico. In the first of two parts, I'm detailing what HSCT is and why I've decided to go for it.



For professional info on HSCT and Clinica Ruiz, I suggest you head here.

In this episode of your third favourite above average but infinitely curious podcast DIMED OUT…I unravel a stressful and concerning chain of events that ends in a stint in the hospital and a surprising diagnosis.



And yes...I am being deliberately vague with this description.

In this episode of your third favourite above average but infinitely curious podcast DIMED OUT...we're entering a world of pure imagination.



From the Irish heir to a garden empire, who may or may not have killed his father on St Patrick's Day, to a Doctor entangled in the time travelling shenanigans of Abraham Van Helsing's ghost...this episode takes a look at how for the first time in almost 20 years I returned to acting.

In this episode of your third favourite above average but infinitely curious podcast DIMED OUT…we're looking at Performance.



Acting the part you think other people want to see.

Embodying the character we believe we need to be.

The various masks we wear for those around us.



We're also looking at the productive and destructive qualities of Perfectionism.

What it is, how it manifests, when it starts and when it should stop.



Outside of detailing my own experiences with perfectionism, in this episode I dive into two seperate, but equally fantastic conversations.



The first is with Jess Parente, trauma informed coach and founder of 'It Ends With You' - a mental health service specialising in codependency.



IT ENDS WITH YOU

In this episode of your third favourite above average but infinitely curious podcast DIMED OUT…



I'm digging into isolation and detachment, earnest intentions, and significant changes.

Changes that I need to make for my own sake.

Changes that can help break me out of an insular way of life.

And changes that I find myself navigating, like a new job...in public radio.

TW: THIS EPISODE FOCUSES ON DIETING, BODY ISSUES AND MENTAL HEALTH.



It's about chuffing time! The 5th Season of your 3rd favourite above average but infinitely curious podcast, DIMED OUT, is finally here.

With all good intentions I tried to piece together an interesting, different, iteration of the show. One that was partly intended to help me let go of perfectionistic traits and cause less work...yet this one has probably been the most laborious. Having said that, at the end of the day, it is a labour of love.

In this first episode I dig into my original plans, their implosion, my failed (mostly) fitness journey, and the uncertain nature of what is to come.
