  • Putting up walls to protect yourself is costing you (Episode 357)

    Putting up walls to protect yourself is costing you (Episode 357)
    Oct 25 2026
    Why does putting up walls feel like the safest way to protect yourself from getting hurt, when it can quietly cost you so much? Most walls go up for very good reasons, which is exactly why so few people ever question them. And the more protected you feel the smaller life can become, so gradually that there's rarely ever a particular moment that tells you it's happening. It's easy to miss, too, because everything can look perfectly fine from the outside. So where does healthy self-protection end and hiding from your own life begin? In this week’s episode of the Let's Talk About Mental Health podcast, I'm talking about where that line sits, why walls tend to grow rather than shrink, and how to lower them without feeling reckless or exposed. You'll walk away knowing whether your self-protection is really protecting you, and with a realistic way to start lowering your walls. 👉 Ready to discover how to protect yourself without shutting life out, even when putting up walls might feel safer? Then let's talk!💡 TL;DR: Putting up walls and healthy self-protection can look identical from the inside… so how do you tell which one you're doing? ℹ️ Let's Talk About Mental Health with Jeremy Godwin is about practical mental health advice for real life; each week I help you understand and improve your mental wellbeing with simple mental health tips that actually work, drawing on my professional expertise as a counsellor and my personal experience living with anxiety and depression.

  • Why is letting go of control so hard? (Episode 356)

    Why is letting go of control so hard? (Episode 356)
    Oct 18 2026

    Why can't you let go of control, even when you know you can't change a thing? It's not stubbornness, and the real reason is more interesting than you'd expect. You've heard "accept what you can't control" a hundred times, and it's genuinely good advice. So why does it so rarely work when it matters? In this week's episode of the Let's Talk About Mental Health podcast, I'm exploring why letting go of control is so much harder than it sounds and what the advice leaves out. You'll come away understanding what's really going on, with practical ways to loosen your grip that don't involve just pretending you don't care.


    👉 Ready to discover how to let go of control, even when it feels impossible? Then let's talk!


    💡 TL;DR: Everyone says, “Just let go!”… but why is letting go so much harder the more something matters to you?

  • Why does navigating uncertainty feel so difficult? (Episode 355)

    Why does navigating uncertainty feel so difficult? (Episode 355)
    Oct 11 2026

    Navigating uncertainty can feel hard even when nothing is actually wrong, and the link between uncertainty and anxiety runs much deeper than most people realise. Whether it's a big life question or something as small as waiting on a reply, not knowing has a way of taking up far more space in your head than it logically should… and the harder you try to think your way out of it, the more stressful uncertainty seems to feel. The real reason for that is probably not what you'd expect… and once you see it, the fear of the unknown stops being so confusing and becomes something you can actually work with. This week on the Let's Talk About Mental Health podcast, I'm getting into what's really going on when uncertainty gets under your skin, along with practical and realistic ways of living with uncertainty that don't require you to have every answer first.


    👉 Ready to discover how to navigate uncertainty, even when it feels impossible? Then let's talk!


    💡 TL;DR: Uncertainty isn't hard because you're bad at coping; it's tough for a reason that's far older than you'd think, and understanding it changes how you handle not knowing.
