Between the Covers Podcast

52 - Make Today Better

Let's talk about how we can make to day better. One of the main issues I've been working through in making my days better have been my own expectations of what the day is supposed to be like. There is also the concept by James Clear of improving yourself by 1% than yesterday. If you do this enough, you will be 365% better after a year. Is this true?

51 - Masking

Let's talk about masking. I'm not an expert by any means on this topic, however it is something that I possibly do myself and I've seen in my partner and others in my close circle. In fact, anyone who has some level of neurodivergence likely masks. What is masking? Why do people do it? Let's take a look at this exhausting behavior that helps people blend in.

50 - Hero Study: Spiderman

Let's talk about Spiderman, or Peter Parker, or the Friendly Neighborhood Spiderman. He's probably one of the most popular super heroes since I was a kid in the 80s and 90s, and he's still popular today. After looking into what makes him a superhero, it's not a surprise to see why. Let's explore this hero and what makes him heroic.

49 - Money

Let's talk about one of the challenging topics for people in our modern age. Money is one of those necessary evils today and we have seen how it's influence can bring in incredible philanthropy or corruption. It's one of the three topics that can make or break a romantic relationship, though that was fourteen years ago and maybe there are more topics today that have been added to that list. Regardless, money is something that the majority of people need to live, so how can we have a healthy relationship with it?

48 - You'll Never Please Everyone

Let's talk about pleasing others. Tell me if you've heard this one before: you'll never please everyone. If that sounds familiar, then it makes me wonder why there are so many people I talk with who are so focused on making sure everyone else is happy and pleased. In reality, there is only one person who you can please: yourself! But why is having others happy with us so important? Because we don't want to be socially ostracized from our community and family. We are social animals after all.

47 - What Makes a Strong Relationship

Let's have another talk about relationships. Whether we're talking romantic or not, there are ways we can strengthen our relationships not just through the typical answer of communication, but also through play and respect. Things get a little personal in this one and I'm not afraid to engage in my own mistakes!

46 - Hero Study: Qui-Gon Jinn

Let's talk about my favorite Jedi in the Star Wars universe: Qui-Gon Jinn. He's one of the heroes who, at least in The Phantom Menace, stuck to his morals and beliefs. Courageous to the core, it's a shame I wasn't able to see him in action any more unless you look to comics and books. Let's see what we can learn about being a hero through Qui-Gon Jinn.

45 - Live Strong For Today

I say, "Live strong for today." as the end of every episode of the Between the Covers Podcast and I will continue to say it as long as this podcast runs. Why do I say this sometimes bizarre sequence of four words? Today, let's talk about the origin of what is also my email closing greeting and what the purpose of it is.

44 - Identity

Let's talk about identity today. What makes up your identity? What are the messages that you tell yourself that impact who you think you are? Knowing our identity, or having someone else determine what our identity is, can have a powerful impact on our lives. If we have an unhealthy identity, how can we change that? If you are unhappy of who you think you are, you can change that.

43 - Trust Your Body

Let's talk about how necessary it is to listen to and trust our bodies. Growing up, I was often told by those close to me and who dearly loved me that I couldn't trust my body because it would lie to me or they understood the situation or life better than I did. This created a disconnect between my brain and body where I would avoid the signals everything below my neck was trying to send to me in order to help me survive and avoid people who didn't have the best of intentions for me. Have you ever experienced this? Let's look at how trustworthy our bodies actually are.
