'We’ve lost someone deeply important to us and the way each of us is grieving couldn't be more different. Some of us want to talk constantly. Some of us don’t and it’s becoming harder to coexist without tension. Now we feel towards each other. Small things turn into arguments because underneath it all we're all hurting just in different ways. I find myself thinking, why can't I cope like them? Or why can't they see how hard this is for me? Then I feel guilty for thinking that. I can't stop thinking about my mum who has died. What would she think?'Thank you to the HIA.ie for supporting Better Days this season.

Why do I keep myself small and how can I step out of my comfort zone into the life I dream of?This podcast is brought to you with thanks to HIA.ie

In light of what is happening with the Beckham's, this episode couldn't be more relevant right now. This will help us understand family dynamics and the root cause of this particular problem that many families face. This listener who moved abroad feels conflicted between independence and her parent’s need for control. Despite knowing the behaviour comes from fear and unresolved issues, judgement leaves them doubting themselves. They feel torn and felt compelled to get in touch. Gerry introduces his A–C–E framework (Accept, Change or Exit), offering practical ways to set boundaries, shift emotional patterns and build relationships rooted in compassion rather than resentment.

'I'm in a long term relationship, we have kids and honestly things are fine. We get on, we're good parents, there's no big issue but I can't shake a feeling that sometimes I'm missing something. My relationship with my husband feels comfortable and safe, but sometimes it feels flat. I don't want to blow my life chasing some sort of an electric relationship that might not even be real. And I must admit that sometimes I find myself thinking about my ex...'Gerry and Georgie are back for a deep conversation about the ups and downs of long term relationships, how people can evolve together and how we can dig deep to do the work before giving up. Thank you HIA.ie for the support this season. 

'I’ve been in a deep state of burnout. In April, I went on an amazing trip with a close friend. Everything was good. A few months later, we went out for my birthday with two friends. I thought a night out might lift me, but it actually made me feel worse. I got so overwhelmed that I left without saying goodbye. The next day I sent my friend a message explaining what had happened, but she couldn’t understand where I was coming from. Things spiralled from there and I ended up losing that friendship. More recently, I snapped at my mum. I apologised and she accepted it, but a few days later I texted her explaining how overwhelmed I feel. She read it and didn’t reply. I’ve been under so much pressure. It feels like I’m losing people I count on. I have big emotions and sometimes I react from a place of overwhelm. I don’t want to change who I am, but I can’t help wondering if this is all my fault.' In this episode, Gerry unpacks burnout, emotional overwhelm and the patterns that keep repeating when our nervous system is dysregulated. Together, Georgie and Gerry discuss emotional regulation, the courage it takes to change, and why self-awareness is the key to healthier relationships. This episode is a compassionate but challenging invitation to stop looking outward for answers and begin the real work within, so you can reconnect with yourself and, in turn, the people you love.Thank you to HIA.ie for the support this season.

'My friend is thriving, a new job, new confidence. I love her but instead of feeling happy I feel insecure and jealous. Her success makes me question my own life and when things don't work out for me as they 'should' I feel angry at myself. How do I work through these emotions without feeling angry or pushing her away.'This is the most fascinating episode about manifesting, vision boards, and how to ACTUALLY attract the life you want. MAGIC. Big thanks to The Health Insurance Authority for supporting Better Days this season.

'My husband and I are completely estranged from his entire family, and this time of year makes the loss feel even heavier. I don’t know whether to try to reconnect for peace, or protect myself from reopening a door that only ever brought chaos.'In this episode, Georgie and Gerry explore courage, grief and the cost of living a lukewarm life. From a family break down after loss, they discuss boundaries, reconciliation and why doing the hard thing for 20 seconds can change everything.Big thanks to The Health Insurance Authority for supporting Better Days this season.
