No Deep Dives by FlexMami

Babes, welcome to No Deep Dives, where we journey through life’s biggest (and smallest) questions with just enough depth to inspire—without the analysis paralysis. I’m Flex, best-selling author and decade-long internet thinker, here to unpack the things we all wonder about but don’t always have answers for. This is where intuition meets intention, blending philosophy, psychology, astrology, self-discovery, and those cosmic nudges that help you decode the art of living mindfully. For ruminators, seekers, and anyone ready to embrace life’s synchronicities, this podcast won’t solve everything—but it’ll help you see the magic in each moment. Think of it as your personal GPS for navigating life’s twists with purpose.

    the death of hydration, jehovah's witness and neighbourly love (feat. Aurelia St Clair)

    Phones that can’t make calls. Apps that don’t work. Food that somehow rots faster than it should. Why does everything feel like it's not quite right? This episode dives headfirst into the absurdity of right now—tech fails, overpriced produce, and Australia’s quiet luxury obsession (spoiler: it’s just capitalism with better PR). We're unpacking why “convenience” is really just chaos, why nothing feels built to last, and how we’re all trying to hold it together in a world that’s falling apart. Plus, I’m talking about community (or the lack of it), the hidden costs of progress, and why it’s time to stop waiting for systems to change and just fix what’s right in front of us. I'm talking to my friend Aurelia Sinclair (@aureliadotcom) a comedian, podcaster, and writer based in Narm (Melbourne). Co-host of Pop Gay.  IMPORTANT LINKS✨ For birth chart readings, 1:1 and group mentoring– visit my website.✨ For deeper dives into the practical magic of astrology, personal stories, and metaphysics– visit Patreon.

    your timeline is fake (but so is everyone else’s)

    WARP SPEED! HYPERREALITY! WE’RE SLOWING DOWN TO SPEED UP!!!! A stroll near my home in nipaluna turns into a much needed debrief about time (yes, time), cultural identity, and Baudrillard’s whole thing about simulacra. As a beautiful-sweet-boss-baby-princess-daughter of an immigrant who’s been in Australia for FOURTY YEARS, I’ve been thinking a lot about what it means to keep your culture alive in a world that’s obsessed with stuff. Throw in Western ideas of time being all straight lines and clocks, compared to the Aboriginal Australian understanding of time as a CYCLE (everything, everywhere, all at once!) and suddenly I’m in philosopher mode. If you’ve ever felt like you’re juggling a million versions of yourself—or just trying to make sense of it all—this one’s for you. It’s called No Deep Dives, but, uh… we might’ve gotten a little deep. If you like seeing me inject more personal musings, or perhaps you want to learn more about astrology, esotericism, metaphysics and witchcraft, find me on Patreon @moreflexmami You can also watch this episode on YouTube!!!   Timestamps 00:00 is this … a guided meditation? 02:46 (simulacra) do you even know what’s real anymore. 10.38 role playing culture 24:59 time is not linear 43:23 I’m off to get hypnotised, bye!   Resources/Links SIMULARA DISSECTING AUSTRALIA'S BIRTH CHART Editing Flex Note: If you came here looking for the video I referenced about Australia having no culture so the immigrants are lost … I’ve lost the link!

    dump your inner loser (shame spiral)

    The time has come to take my 45th consecutive leap of faith. Reminding myself that every waking moment is more time to recommit to the version of life I want to be living. Which is audacious at the minimum. After some serious debriefs with my fear and anxiety, I’ve decided to record a video podcast episode. While this may not seem like a big deal to you, it’s huge to me. My life is a movie, and it’s strange not to be documenting it as such. Talking about the irony (and shame spiralling) of finding out from the internet that being my regular self is perceived as being taboo, controversial and hectic. AND WHAT IT FEELS AND FELT LIKE TO LIVE WITH THAT BURDEN.  With upcoming travels to Morocco, Ghana, and Mexico on the horizon, I’m sharing my thoughts on being brave, making intentional choices, and embracing the freedom to express yourself in any environment. I’m chatting astrology AND more specifically the birth chart of this baby of mine, No Deep Dives (yes, you can cast a birth chart for a business, so why wouldn’t I)🌟   If you’re interested in learning more about astrology and interpreting your own chart, join my Patreon @moreflexmami You can now watch this episode on YouTube!!!   Timestamps 00:00 I’m getting tingles 00:44 see me in 2D ie.

    people pleasing has mutated in a big way

    I don’t know if you can ever really prepare for a significant perspective shift in a way that self-indulgent self development  makes it feel. The whole time you’re working towards being better, remembering what it’s like to be in a body you’ve never left.  I love when an online scroll bears fruit. I saw a video from a TikTok creator called Beyond Codependant who shares their matrix of people pleasing. WHICH INVOLVES MORE ARCHETYPES OF PEOPLE PLEASERS. SO COOL.  There’s the people manager, the caretaker, the matcher, and of course, the classic people pleaser. In exploring how these roles show up in relationships, it’s reminding me why it’s important to get to know your faves deeply. Not scripting through the relationship. And because you know I love it, I also tie it all into astrology — especially the 11th house — to explain how your sign and modality can influence your social dynamics.  In the spirit of sharing, I’ll also open up about my own experiences with setting boundaries, managing relationships, and the power of being self-aware. It’s like a cosmic roadmap to healthier connections, with a little DIY fashion inspiration thrown in. ✨💫  Listen immediately and tell your friends to tell a friend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If you’re interested in learning more about astrology and interpreting your own chart, join my Patreon @moreflexmami   Timestamps 00:00 mexico flex speaking 00:46 four types of pleaser 01:54 why do you have boundaries 06:39 zodiac vs. society 18:01 the pleaser’s dilemma 32:44 exercise the fast fashion demons 35:19 miss you dearly

    uh oh the glimmers and emotional residue

    In the most dramatic way possible (and without having read the book or watched the movie) i understand the eat, pray, love lady. Seeing new places changes you from the INSIDE OUT.  ALSO IM RECORDING THIS FROM FRIDA KAHLO’s HOME TOWN AHHH!!!! Coyoacán, Mexico City! 🌞✨ There’s really something about those cosmic nudges that keep showing up (hello, synchronicities!), reminding you that there is a magical art to being self aware. Or at least aware of your experiences as you’re experiencing them. Also, who was going to tell me how you can your emotions to MAKE decisions not just a tool to REFLECT on decisions already made???? They’re basically your personal GPS for making better life choices. I’m recognising that paying attention to the small, sparkly moments can actually guide you toward a more intentional, values-driven lifestyle. Ofcourse I’ve imbued this episode with a perfect combination of astrology insights, lived lessons from my own experiments to live with more purpose. It's like a cosmic treasure map, but way more fun. ✨🗺 Until next time!   Timestamps 00:00 im falling in love  02:17 awareness (it’s always been you) 09:08 not “just” angel numbers  14:40 glimmer glee & nudge navigation 22:28 feeling as you feel it 31:34 synchronicities are following me around the world? 35:08 final thoughts until we meet again

    you’re not normal (everybody can tell)

    Normalcy? In 2024? Are you sure? I’m trying to unpack how niche behaviours, trends and belief systems have exploded into the mainstream, making everything feel ‘normal’ and yet totally strange at the same time. Australians online are becoming hyper aware and paranoid of cool in a way that feels uncharacteristically American.  We’ll also dive into the mental gymnastics of trying to be aware of what is popular and important to people (thus cool) and the ever shifting standards. Also!! Didn’t Carl Jung teach us about individuation for a reason. The belief that knowing and celebrating the chosen self is far more important than confirming.    Timestamps 00:00 intro + iphone notes 01:30 the elusive concept of normalcy 02:43 Australian coolness and American takeover 06:09 the sisyphean pursuit of normal and cool 15:32 don’t deny what is happening in the shadows 17:49 light + shadow = individuation 24:02 creative practices and wrapping up   Links Carl Jung Shadow Work

    clock into your internal world please

    Ok, hold on tight because in this episode we’re getting intimate with this sometimes strange concept of ‘doing the work’! Examining through various lenses including philosophy, personal growth & astrology (naturally).    Posing the question - how profound can our daily routines and disciplined efforts be in our lives? We’re getting juicy as we delve into philosophies like Carl Jung’s shadow work, Brene Brown and more!   Dipping into vibes of the Sixth and Tenth Houses in astrology we reflect on how these houses are all about mastering yourself, giving back, and shining in the public eye. We’ll chat about how to juggle your everyday tasks while staying true to your bigger goals, shake off old biases, and break free from what society expects. It’s all about boosting self-awareness and making real, meaningful changes in your life! Timestamps 00:00 it’s me again 00:33 what even is doing the work 04:17 what we do in the shadows; Shadow Work and Self-Examination 07:51 therapeutic and healing work 14:55 perfecting the process; thank you sixth house 21:43 hello tenth house giving us every day maintenance 24:21 the essence of Leo in the sixth house 24:40 is it what’s inside that counts? Balancing validation and internal work 27:00 the natural zodiac and sixth house rulership 28:34 the sixth house is deep 31:57 Mercury's influence on the sixth house 33:29 let’s get to understand the tenth house 35:16 GO TIME: Societal Expectations vs Personal Ambitions 40:44 we love synergising energies in the Birth Chart 41:59 shadow work journal prompts 42:52 you know where to find me

    unpaid interning in my mental prison

    I love being a statistic. Mindfulness and routines are actually working for me. As in, I don’t wake up with a pit in my chestgood  and a looming sense of Iike that later is validated by the horror’s on my timeline.  Who knew that structure can equal freedom, they should teach us this in school , or maybe they did & I wasn’t listening! I’m chatting about some of the things that make up my regular routines, yoga, massages, and morning pages. I’ll break down the sticky, tricky world of discipline and how those vexatious thought loops can hold us back. I’ll also share some thoughts on why traditional talk therapy might not tackle the bigger picture. With a sprinkle of wisdom from the Gita and my counselling studies, I’ll talk about syncing your values with your actions, consciously uncoupling from overthinking, and making choices that help you grow. As always, astrology is linked to EVERYTHING so you can hear all about how the sixth house connects to this discussion. This episode really has it all, listen immediately! Here's my Instagram 🧿 Timestamps 00:00 sweetie pies, it’s me 01:13 talk therapy woes 04:34 neoliberal influence on self-optimisation 07:13 I feel so ME with my somatic and daily routines 14:43 action vs. intellectualising 17:11 soft muscles = emotional growth 21:12 getting out of your mind to get into yourself; breaking intellectual thought loops 23:47 taming perfectionism and self-doubt 25:11 action vs. inaction: lessons from the Gita 28:09 the pleasure of simple mindfulness practices: disrupting the mental loop 31:32 bridging the knowing and the doing through embodied values 32:25 final thoughts and farewell, miss you dearly
