About this listen

 Welcome to ‘Don’t Weight to Change!’ Our original ‘Why Weight to Change?’ podcast, began as an advocacy for mental health issues following my personal 10+ year battle with anorexia. By sharing my story, we aimed to help others struggling with mental health issues, especially young boys and men, creating a safe space for candid discussion and support. Following the phenomenal feedback from our listeners, our podcast has organically expanded into issues that affect mental health such as ‘what it means to be human’. Questions such as ‘what compels us to make the life choices we make? Who determines and influences that? How do we alight upon the opinions and beliefs that we live by that form our sense of identity, and how do we identify, and deselect, certain opinions or beliefs when they no longer prove to serve us and who we want to be? Our podcast now seeks to encourage conversations around how to relinquish the weight of self-doubt, expectation, fear and uncertainty which holds us back and prevents us from changing into who we want to be. We aim to encourage discussion around how to stop seeking external validation and permission to change, what change might look like, and how change benefits our mental wellbeing so that we live out the most beneficial version of ourselves in whatever way we choose!

    Episode 45: Recovery - A year on...
    Dec 24 2025

    Merry Christmas!

    This time of year can feel truly magical for many, yet incredibly challenging for others. After several Christmases shaped and, at times, overshadowed by my eating disorder, Mum and I reflect on what this season has meant to us in the past, and why this year feels so different.

    In this episode, we share an honest update on my recovery, now more than a year on, and discuss how I am approaching Christmas differently this time. We also offer insight and reassurance for anyone who may find this period difficult to navigate.

    Thank you to every single listener who has supported us episode after episode, and helped our podcast reach so many people. We are endlessly grateful.

    We wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a safe, healthy, and flourishing New Year.

    See you in 2026! ❤️
