The Fraser Morgan Podcast Fraser Morgan

My most honest and vulnerable podcast episode yet. I start off by discussing and breaking down love, dating and sex, and end up unintentionally pouring my heart out about my own life and loves, as well as my fears, hopes and dreams for the future, in the form of a type of letter to my future self.
 
To future Fraser: I love ya bud. No matter where you are, mid-20s Fraser would be proud of you. I'm sure of it x 

This week I wanted to do a podcast on therapy; debunking the myths, removing the stigma, and just having a generally mature and compassionate conversation about it, drawing from my active 5 year experience with it and how it's helped me. I also have an appointment to discuss a potential ADHD diagnosis next week, so I thought I'd discuss my brain and how it can sometimes hinder, but also help me.

Been a while, innit? This week I have a cuppa fruity tea and explore the importance of self-reflection and checking in on yourself. I also discuss dating, and my views on love and relationships (both of which no one asked for from a single man, you’re welcome anyway.)

This week I lay on my bed, drink some vanilla tea, and discuss how hurt people, hurt people, and that although we can’t control how people treat us, it is however our sole responsibility to instead of run from and try to fill any pain and hurt we might have with relationships, escapes, addictions etc, we instead take the time to healthily process, heal and deal with it all, before we inevitably end up passing our unresolved pain and hurt onto the next person; thus putting an end to the cycle.
 
I also share my thoughts on relationships, and what I believe are the right/wrong reasons for getting into one, and what I also believe they are in their simplest form.
 
Yeah, it’s a juicy one, buckle-up cowboys and cowgirls, Fraser’s taking you for a spin.

This week I give you an insight into my brain and what skills and thought patterns I use to try and maintain a positive mental health.
 
I'm not a mental health professional, but I am a professional of my own experiences, and so this isn't advice, these are just things that work for me personally.
 
I also answer your questions that you've asked me on social media.
 
 

I've realised how much I love my hometown Colchester, so as part of a new series I'm starting on here called "Support Local", I'm interviewing local businesses and people who contribute to Colchester and it's charm.
To kickstart this series we have Steve Hurdle, one of the owners of Bestdays Vintage which is a local, independent, vintage shop that also has a cafe, puts gigs on and promotes mental health.
