  • 95: The Mental Trap That Will Ruin Your 2026
    Jan 13 2026

    There's a 99% chance you've been in this trap.

    In the three years I've been supporting people heal from chronic skin picking, hair pulling, and nail biting, I have yet to meet someone who hasn't struggled with this too.

    I did for years, and I still catch myself slipping into this self-sabotaging and degrading way of thinking.

    If you want to feel more content, present, and fulfilled in your day-to-day life, make sure you listen to this because navigating this mental trap is a MUST!

  • 94: How NOT to Heal From Chronic Skin Picking & Hair Pulling
    Jan 6 2026

    This is what really works.

    And it's got nothing to do with willpower or expensive therapeutic treatment.

    I discovered this at one of the lowest moments in my healing journey and, to this day, it continues to change my life for the better.

    Because the truth is, you're not struggling with chronic skin picking, hair pulling, or nail biting - you're struggling with shame.

    And I guarantee, the skin picking became a problem because you needed help coping with the shame (and stress and overwhelm), NOT the other way round.

    To truly heal - feel better in ourselves and finally be able to relax and just "be" - we need to approach healing differently.

    What I share with you in this episode is the approach that makes all the difference.

    I can't wait for you to gain this invaluable tool!

    Questions from this episode to save in your phone:
    - What do I need right now?

    - What is this moment trying to teach me?

    - Is there anything I'm avoiding doing or saying in my life right now?

    - Is there a hard conversation I know I need to have?

    - Is there a boundary I'm not setting that my heart is telling me I need, but I'm afraid to act on?

    - Where am I putting too much pressure on myself?

  • 93: Plan How You'll Heal From Chronic Skin Picking in 2026 (Science Based)
    Dec 30 2025

    Most people set really crappy goals for the new year and wonder why, by mid-March, they seem to be no further than they were on January 1st.

    I personally don't love the idea of New Year's resolutions, but I absolutely love goal setting and teaching others how to do it effectively because goal setting is a skill that will genuinely transform your life!

    In this episode, I share with you:

    1. The top 3 areas you need to focus on to heal from chronic skin picking, hair pulling, and nail biting in 2026.
    2. How to turn them into personalised goals
    3. And the absolutely vital components of goal setting you must learn to ensure you follow through, stay consistent, and actually create the change you wish to see.

    Everything I share with you in this episode is science-based methods and skills that I'm constantly using in my day-to-day life.

    Without them, I wouldn't be who I am today, and my clients wouldn't be getting the incredible results that they do.

    Listen in to set yourself up for real change in 2026!

  • 92: 3 Ways to Help a Loved One With Chronic Skin Picking or Hair Pulling
    Dec 23 2025

    Trying to get them to “just stop” isn’t working. In fact, it’s probably making things worse.

    There is a right way and a wrong way to support someone with a chronic body-focused repetitive behaviour (BFRB). Unfortunately, there isn’t much information out there explaining what the right way actually is. That’s why I created this episode.

    It’s short, because supporting your loved one effectively is much simpler than you might think.

    You may even discover a thing or two about yourself while listening!

  • 90: The Habit That Drains Your Joy
    Dec 9 2025

    You'll be surprised how this is also making you pick, pull, and bite at your body...

    Somewhere between childhood and adulthood, we lost that zest for life. Rather than waking up looking forward to the day, we wake up not wanting to get out of bed, dreading what the day might bring, or feeling an underlying sense of urgency, like we're already behind.

    Here's what the solution is not...

    It's not doing more and trying harder, or quitting your job, selling all your belongings, and moving to a cabin in the woods.

    The solution is not so drastic or dramatic.

    In truth, it lies in learning how to slow down despite the never-ending to-do list.

    It's easier said than done, but when you learn the simple yet powerful practice inside this episode, it will feel so much more achievable than ever before.

    Oh, and it will help you to reduce picking, pulling and biting.

    Listen in to find out how and why!

  • 89: A hidden behaviour that's keeping you stuck in picking & pulling
    Dec 2 2025

    When you STOP venting, you'll take huge steps towards accessing freedom from chronic skin picking and hair pulling.

    And when I say "venting", I mean the cathartic act of complaining or offloading about your problems onto a loving and listening ear.

    We've all done it/do it. Don't even try to deny it!

    I struggled with chronic skin picking for 15 years, and venting was one of those hidden behaviours that was holding me back.

    Is it doing to you what it did to me?

    Find out in this episode what venting really is, how it might be affecting you in BIG ways, and how to transform this cathartic yet limiting behaviour into healthy communication, wholesome emotional regulation, and powerful growth.

    While you may not be able to "just stop" picking and pulling right now. Many other areas of growth are within your control. This is one of them!

    Listen in to heal 💛.

  • 88: You could be missing this vital piece to inner freedom
    Nov 25 2025

    Skin picking, hair pulling, and nail biting won't stop without this vital piece.

    I've spoken to hundreds of people like you in this community, and they all want the same thing: relief, a break, the space to be themselves without this behaviour constantly getting in their way, like a shackle around their legs or a thorn in their side.

    What I've noticed is that this "vital piece" holds the key to their chains, and yet almost every person I speak to is missing it, OR they're not as connected to it as they could be.

    What I'm about to share with you completely transformed my life at 15 years old and has continued to guide me ever since.

    Listen in to find out what it is and be guided through a powerful exercise to help you access it for yourself today!
