My name is Shevvy, aka Brian. This podcast is my attempt at mental health & things often left unsaid.Here I explore all sorts of various personal thoughts that many of us probably don't usually feel comfortable talking about.

The Importance of Finding Gratitude when Life Sucks

The Different Personalities We've Got

"Be Who You Really Are" (from the vaults 10/05)

Please YOURSELF More Than Others!
Many individuals could be defined as "People Pleasers." Something in your past...maybe a parental figure...acted towards you in a way that said YOU WEREN'T ENOUGH. So now you spend your precious free time on the attempt to make others happy, sacrificing your own needs. It is OKAY to say no...

A Message - To Millenials, reg. Gen Z

Relationship History & How it Forms Us
Being a solo episode, I rambled on here too much to truly get to the core subject matter...sometimes, we get caught up in our own heads so much, that we can't get to the center. I suppose it can be hard to stay on track with adult ADHD and intoxication. But here it is, my relationship history in…
