Well Being

Ep. 085 - Insecurity Guards: Facing Doubts & Finding Strength

This week, the crew takes a deep dive into the world of insecurities—how they creep into our work, relationships, and self-image. From imposter syndrome to body dysmorphia, we unpack the emotional weight we carry and how it shapes our daily lives. But it’s not all heavy! Sparks of inspiration bring us indie filmmaking victories, Daredevil critiques, and the wild world of Blender-powered Oscar winners. Plus, in the campaign, the team stumbles into a neon-lit underground city, meets fish-headed locals, and discovers a greasy diner that just might hold more than a good meal. Grab a seat at the bar, because this episode gets real.

Ep. 084 - The Genius of Dumb: Unlocking Creativity with David Carson

What if thinking dumber actually made you smarter? This week, Theo, Andy, and Kel sit down with David Carson, author of the Dumbify newsletter, to explore how embracing “dumb thinking” can lead to creativity, problem-solving, and even scientific breakthroughs. From the origins of Liquid Death to the unexpected genius of potato chips, they discuss the power of letting go of the need to be “smart” all the time. Plus, the gang shares their own stories of happy accidents, DIY filmmaking mishaps, and how dumb ideas sometimes lead to the best results.
 
No campaign session this week, but plenty of laughs, insights, and inspiration to shake up your mindset. Be sure to check out David’s work and, in the spirit of Dumbify, embrace a little bit of foolishness in your life.

Ep. 083 - Denial… or Something Like That

The gang is back with sparks of inspiration, from revisiting Severance to diving into Absolute Batman. But this week’s shadow work takes a deep dive into denial—how we mask emotions, push things aside, and convince ourselves that everything is fine. From childhood experiences to relationships, the crew unpacks what it means to sit with discomfort without forcing a silver lining. Meanwhile, in the campaign, the team navigates sewers, encounters slimes, and makes some high-stakes rollerblade repairs. Join us for another episode of Well Being—where facing the shadow is part of the adventure.

Ep. 82 - Let’s Try Balance (For Once?)

Ah, balance—the ever-elusive unicorn of life. This week, Theo, Andy, and Kel attempt to wrangle their inner chaos and find some kind of harmony between their shadow traits and, you know, actually functioning humans. Will they succeed? Probably not, but hey, it’s the effort that counts!
 
Sparks of Inspiration this week include Lego-building therapy, the dangers of puzzles (too many pieces, not enough patience), and why AppleCare might just be Kel’s new best friend. Meanwhile, in the campaign, our heroes finally stop running and start fighting… with mixed results. Some epic rolls, some epic failures, and one poor rat who gets viciously mocked into oblivion.
 
Join us as we fumble through shadow work, dodge existential crises, and try (keyword: try) to find balance.

Ep. 081 - Roots and Reflections: Unpacking Family Origins

This week, Theo, Andy, and Kel dive deep into the foundation of identity—our families of origin. Sparks of Inspiration ignite the episode with everything from Super Bowl performances to impulse purchases, new tech, and a long-overdue therapy appointment. But the real journey begins when the crew explores how childhood environments shape financial habits, relationships, and personal growth. From generational cycles to unexpected self-discoveries, this episode is a heartfelt, hilarious, and sometimes heavy reflection on where we come from and where we’re headed. Plus, the campaign continues—fear, teleportation, and glowing rats included.

Ep. 080 - Conflict and the Shadow

The crew is back, and this time they’re diving deep into the murky waters of conflict. From personal clashes to shadow work revelations, Theo, Andy, and Kel explore how conflict shapes our lives, where we feel it in our bodies, and how we can start addressing it instead of running from it. With some sparks of inspiration (including the Fantastic Four and Severance), they gear up for a powerful discussion on self-awareness, past wounds, and the weight of unresolved tension.
 
Meanwhile, in the campaign, the gang faces their first real fight—some better prepared than others. Acidic ooze, desperate attacks, and unexpected fear set the stage for a chaotic battle that leaves scars both physical and emotional. Will they overcome their fears and find their strength, or will conflict consume them?
 
Buckle up for an episode that blends introspection, laughter, and some good ol’ dice rolling chaos.

Ep. 079 - Attachment Style Theory

Are we anxiously attached? Avoidantly detached? Securely thriving? Or just chaotically winging it? This week, the Well Being crew is diving deep into Attachment Style Theory—because understanding how we connect (or avoid connecting) can be a total game-changer. But don’t worry, it’s not just theory talk; Theo, Andy, and Kel get real about their own attachment styles, childhood influences, and those sneaky patterns that creep into relationships.
Of course, no episode is complete without some Sparks of Inspiration to kick things off, plus a campaign session that delivers pure chaos—rollerblades, bear traps, and a bag of holding? It’s all fair game when prepping for an underground mission. Grab your emotional support snack and settle in for an episode packed with laughs, deep dives, and maybe even a revelation or two.

Ep. 078 - How's Your Disappointment?

Buckle up—this week, we’re diving deep into disappointment (but don’t worry, we keep it fun). The trio is back to share Sparks of Inspiration that spark some joy before tackling the tough topic of reacting to disappointment, courtesy of the Shadow Work Workbook. From awkward dinners and dashed job hopes to family letdowns, Theo, Andy, and Kel get real about how disappointment manifests and how they’ve learned to navigate those moments (or not).
And, of course, the campaign chaos continues! This week, clown lawyers get weird, paperwork gets signed, and special demands turn into comedic gold as the team preps for their next mission. Who needs space pesos, anyway?
Grab a cup of tea (or a stiff drink), and join us for laughs, insights, and a whole lot of healing.

Ep. 076 - New Year for Love and Hate

New year, same Well Being energy—but with a fresh twist! We’re kicking off 2025 with Sparks of Inspiration to reignite those creative fires and sharing our New Year’s resolutions (spoiler: some are ambitious, some… not so much). Then, we dive into shadow work, peeling back the layers on the complicated relationship between love and hate. Are they two sides of the same coin? We’re figuring it out.
Finally, it’s campaign time! Xolo’s interrogation comes to a close, but things really heat up as the four unite—much to Kelliot’s dismay. It’s a mix of resolution-making, emotional reflection, and narrative chaos to start your year off right. Don’t miss it!
