A Cautionary Tale - The Sometimes Unhinged Musings of a Therapised Delight
This isn’t a polished podcast. It’s sometimes raw, messy, and totally me. These are the stories I’ve carried: the funny ones, the heavy ones, and the ones that still ache when I speak them. Some episodes may make you laugh, some may sit heavy in your chest, but beneath the grit the point is connection. The truth is complicated. That’s why some of the most tender or unfiltered pieces stay behind paid doors, where they can be held more carefully. But this podcast will always be a space for honesty, for laughter, for grief, and for remembering that none of us are really alone.

So, this is me channeling my inner 6 year old, and singing my heart out. I remember singing it in tandem with movie, always hoping that it was true. My life is definitely feeling like my hearts dream ...
This episode is the short(ish) version of a much longer story, a vulnerable accounting of why this podcast exists, and what I’m hoping will come out of it.
Spoiler alert, it's… world peace. Just kidding. What I’m really hoping is that by sharing my life, aka A Cautionary Tale, I’ll feel a little less alone in my particular brand of eccentric—and maybe you will too.
Because here’s the thing: across Canada more than 1 in 10 people aged...
TL;DR: Poem | Reflection. Crisis supports & ShelterSafe link in notes. Minimal edit; offered live and with care.
This episode is a poem I wrote in 2021. It’s short — under three minutes — and then I say a few things about what I hear in the poem now: someone trying to figure things out, sometimes getting it wrong, sometimes figuring it out a bit better.
Nothing groundbreaking, just a poem and a human voice you can f...
I recorded this the morning I heard about a recent death by suicide connected to a close friend. I didn’t know the woman, but I have been her.
That’s what this episode is about: the strange intimacy of grief and how tiny practices help me stay with it. This is about company, not spectacle.
What’s inside:
- A short, honest piece of my story: why I make these practices and what suicidal thinking looked like for me. Skip...
