  • Episode Zero: So… Where Have I Been?

    Episode Zero: So… Where Have I Been?
    Aug 13 2025
    Before we kick into the official first episode, I wanted to catch you up on where I’ve been for the past eight months, why I left The Edge after nearly two decades, and what’s been going on in my life — the good, the bad, and the flu. From finding my feet without a daily radio show to learning te reo, dealing with loss, and MORE… It’s been a ride. Think of this as Episode Zero — a little life update, a little bit of honesty, and a whole lot of ‘escaping the shit show’ together.

    Anxiety with Sir John Kirwan
    Nov 10 2024
    One of the bucket list guests I had for the season was Sir John Kirwin. Sir JK has done incredible things through sharing his mental health journey, he’s helped so many people including myself. In this episode, my goal was not to cry like the other 2 times but also to talk to Sir JK about anxiety, his journey with it, his advice, tips, tricks and it’s one of the most beneficial conversations I’ve ever had (I was also so nervous I sweated ALOT hahaha) HELPFUL LINKS:Find us on social media @bettermehopefullypodcast Find Sharyn on social media @sharyncasey Learn more about your ad choices.
