I Don't Like Thinking About Death
I Don't Like Thinking About Death Oct 14, 2026 294 Have you ever noticed how quickly you try to change the subject, even in your own mind, when death comes up? During her nursing training, Dora cared for a man who was nearing the end of his life, with no friends or family coming to visit. She couldn't shake the feeling of a whole life reaching its end without anyone there to bear witness to it. Why is something that touches every one of us so diff
Who Are You Becoming?
Who Are You Becoming? Oct 12, 2026 347 Think about who you were ten years ago. What mattered to you? What did you believe about yourself? And how much of that still feels true today? Dora invites us to look at the versions of ourselves we've already outgrown, not with judgment, but with gratitude.

You Don't Have To Solve The Unknown
You Don't Have To Solve The Unknown Oct 9, 2026 484 Not every question has an answer you can find right now. And yet when we're uncomfortable with uncertainty, how often do we treat the unknown like a problem that needs to be solved? Dora reflects on what happens when we stop trying to think our way out of the moment and come back to the body instead. The question may still be there, but you may find you're able to meet it differently. Learn more a
Imagine Without Predicting
Imagine Without Predicting Oct 7, 2026 353 When your mind starts running through everything that could happen, it can be hard to remember that you're here, in this moment, and not inside the future you're imagining. Dora offers a different way to relate to uncertainty, one that doesn't ask you to stop caring about what comes next. Instead, it's about finding your way back to the present, where you can choose what deserves your attention an
Learning To Live With Uncertainty
Learning To Live With Uncertainty Oct 5, 2026 369 Dora found herself late at night reading strangers' stories online, even while knowing that the search wasn't making her feel better. Maybe you've had that experience too: knowing exactly what you're doing and doing it anyway. Sometimes the gap between knowing and doing isn't a failure of mindfulness. It's simply part of being human. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Why We're So Afraid Of Endings
Why We're So Afraid Of Endings Oct 2, 2026 274 We know intellectually that nothing lasts forever. Still, when our relationship ends, our circumstances change, or our chapter closes, impermanence suddenly feels a lot harder to accept. Dora looks at why we struggle against something we encounter every day, and how accepting life's changing nature might loosen some of our fear around what comes next.

Learning To Be Alone
Learning To Be Alone Sep 30, 2026 317 Dora used to worry about what people might think if they saw her doing something alone. Then came solo movie dates, time spent with herself, and eventually a trip to Mallorca. Somewhere along the way, being alone stopped feeling like something to explain. What if solitude isn't evidence that something is missing, but a chance to discover what's already there? Learn more about your ad choices. Visi
Knowing When To Let Go
Knowing When To Let Go Sep 28, 2026 294 Sometimes letting go isn't difficult because we still want something. It's difficult because we remember everything it took to get here. Dora explores the sunk cost fallacy and how mindfulness can help us stop making today's decisions based solely on yesterday's investment. Learn more about your ad choices.

Make Your World Feel A Little Wider
Make Your World Feel A Little Wider Sep 25, 2026 364 When everything starts to feel too close, sometimes you don't need another solution. You just need a little more room. A walk, a drive, a few quiet minutes where nothing is being asked of you can create enough distance to hear yourself again. What if taking space isn't about escaping your life, but giving yourself the room to return to it more present? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megap
Silence Can Become A Habit
Silence Can Become A Habit Sep 23, 2026 397 Have you ever known exactly what you wanted to say, then immediately started talking yourself out of saying it? Maybe it isn't worth bringing up. Maybe you're overreacting. Maybe speaking up will only make things worse. Rosie looks at how the lessons we learn about expressing emotion can follow us long after we've left the rooms where we learned them. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaph
The Illusion Of Control
The Illusion Of Control Sep 21, 2026 361 Anxiety makes a compelling promise: Get everything under control and then you'll feel better. So we plan more, predict more, and prepare for possibilities that haven't happened. But certainty keeps moving further away. The harder we grip, the more tension we can create around the uncertainty that was already there. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
How Do You Know What To Believe?
How Do You Know What To Believe? Sep 18, 2026 391 We're surrounded by people explaining the world to us, often in a few confident sentences. So how do you tell the difference between something that sounds right and something you actually understand? Maybe discernment begins not with immediately deciding yes or no, but becoming comfortable enough to say, I'm not sure yet. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
