Who is really speaking when we think, feel, analyse, or hold back?

In this episode, I explore four parts of myself: the Thinker, the Feeler, the Therapist, and the Shy Part. Together, they reveal different ways of navigating the world... through logic, emotion, understanding, and self-protection.

Drawing on personal reflection, lived experience, and gentle psychological curiosity, this conversation explores what happens when we stop seeing ourselves as one fixed person and start listening to the different voices within us.

If you’ve ever felt torn between what you think, what you feel, and what you show to others, this episode might resonate.

I would also like to hear about it.

Thank you for listening.

What if you're not just one version of yourself? In this episode, Psychotherapist Kane Howarth (me) explores internal parts, self-reflection, ADHD, identity and the different internal voices that shape who we are.

Join the conversation by reflecting on your own inner world, and follow the podcast for future episodes exploring psychology, queerness, neurodivergence, relationships, and what it means to be human.

In the first episode, I'm exploring the different parts of myself that show up in everyday life.

The part that wants to be seen.

The part that wants to stay hidden.

The part that overthinks, protects, criticises, avoids, hoes and dreams.

As a psychotherapist, I spend hours sitting with other people and listening to their exploration of the inner world. Here, I am turning that lens inward and beginning a conversation with my own.

So, why not come along for the ride.

Pride Special | Visibility, Safety & Becoming

In this Pride special of In Conversation With Myself, psychotherapist Kane Howarth reflects on what Pride has come to mean beyond parades and celebrations.

Through the lens of lived experience, Kane explores growing up under Section 28, coming out, internalised messages about being queer, and the different parts of ourselves that learn to hide, protect, adapt, and eventually step into the light.

This is a conversation about visibility, safety, identity, and the lifelong process of becoming. It’s about recognising that the parts of us that once kept us safe still deserve compassion, even as we begin to live more openly.

Kane explores lived experiences of needing to hide his queer identity in different environments as a way of self preservation.

Whether you’re part of the LGBTQ+ community, questioning your identity, or simply interested in understanding the different parts of yourself, this episode invites you to reflect on what it means to be seen and what it takes to feel safe enough to be yourself.

Topics include: Pride, LGBTQ+, queer identity, mental health, psychotherapy, self-reflection, internalised shame, visibility, self-acceptance, identity, parts of self, and becoming.
