  • Season 5, Episode 10: Kintsugi
    2024/07/17

    In this episode of your thirteenth favourite, above average, but infinitely curious podcast DIMED OUT…we wrap things up on Season 5.


    Diving into an amateur attempt at Kintsugi, the Japanese art of repairing pottery with gold dusted lacquer, I break a cheap bowl and put it back together with superglue and gold paint. A fun little project and a metaphor of sorts for embracing flaws and imperfections. Something I've been working in in this season.


    I also discuss perspective shifts and the human element of my time in Puebla.

  • Season 5, Episode 3: Performance and Perfectionism
    2024/05/22

    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.
