Head Noise: My Partner Trauma Dumps, I Feel Like a Fraud at Work, and I Freeze in Conflict

In this Head Noise episode, we unpack three listener dilemmas that all come down to boundaries, self-perception, and finding your voice when things feel overwhelming.

We talk about:


Whether to stay with a partner who constantly trauma dumps — and how to figure out if the relationship is actually sustainable long-term


What imposter syndrome really is at a new job, and how to rewrite your self-talk so it becomes realistic and empowering instead of self-sabotaging


Why some people freeze during confrontation, and how to start responding instead of shutting down

This episode covers:


Emotional compatibility vs emotional exhaustion in relationships


Determining if your needs are being met — not just if you care about someone


Reframing “I’m a fraud” thinking into grounded, self-supportive internal dialogue


The psychology behind conflict freeze responses


How to make decisions that protect your energy and long-term wellbeing

If you’ve ever felt drained by someone you love, doubted your place at work, or struggled to speak up when it matters, this one will resonate.

As always, Head Noise is about cutting through emotional overwhelm so you can make clearer, calmer decisions.

How to Reclaim Your Power Without Controlling Anyone

In this episode, I break down the psychology behind control. Why we try to manage other people’s behaviour, emotions, and choices, and how that quietly drains our power, peace, and sense of self.

We talk about:


Why trying to control others makes you feel more powerless, not less


How victim mentality keeps you dependent on other people’s energy and validation


The ways control shows up as guilt, emotional pressure, or “needs”


Why boundaries are about your behaviour and not changing someone else’s


How letting go of control reduces anxiety and emotional exhaustion


Why focusing only on yourself feels uncomfortable but creates real change


How to stop feeling guilty, indebted, or responsible for other people’s emotions


The mindset shift that helps you reclaim your power without force, manipulation, or emotional labour

This episode is for anyone who feels drained by relationships, stuck in cycles of guilt or resentment, or exhausted from trying to hold everything together.

You don’t need more control.
You need your power back.

Why does competition creep into friendships, relationships, work, and social media… even when you know it’s making you feel worse?

In this episode, I break down the psychology of comparison and competition. Why your brain gets stuck in it, why some situations trigger you more than others, and how to end the comparison cycle permanently, not just “manage” it.

We talk about:


Why comparison isn’t the problem, loss of self-trust is


How triggers reveal where you’ve outsourced your worth


The difference between healthy ambition and toxic competition


Why comparing yourself to friends and siblings hurts the most


How social media intensifies insecurity without you realising


The psychology behind competing for validation, attention, and approval


How to stop competing in friendships, dating, and everyday life


The mindset shift that makes comparison lose its power for good

This episode is for anyone who feels behind, constantly measures themselves against others, or is exhausted by the quiet mental competition they can’t seem to turn off.

If comparison is draining your confidence, affecting your relationships, or keeping you stuck, this episode will help you understand why it happens and exactly how to step out of it for good.
