S4 E5: Reframing Pain...

Welcome to the first episode of a revamped TNS. No longer The Naked Student, this is The Next Stage.  My first guest is Suki Sandhu - an absolute honour to have on the pod.  Our convo starts at 4:00 and we talk about all manner of things: growing up in a religious family, coming out as gay, establishing your own business and much more. A wonderful chat to be a part of! Find the all new insta page: @thenextstagepod. 

Welcome to the second episode of series 5. Today, I'm joined by Xavi Bull, who co-founded the charity Band Together. We chat about mental health, the challenges of covid for charities and some helpful tips moving forward. A great chat to be a part of. Find us on insta: thenakedstudent_ and remember to leave a nice review on Apple Podcasts!

Welcome to the first episode of Series 5! We return to a more normal form of TNS, where I'm joined by a guest for longer conversations that can be fun, insightful and often poignant.  For this first episode, I'm joined by the wonderful Maria to discuss how she balanced elite level sport, studies and her social life. A cracking convo to be a part of... enjoy! You can find us on Insta: thenakedstudent_ 

Welcome to the final episode of this series on mental health, bitzesized as usual. We have a look at connection and what that can do for our lives.  If you've enjoyed this series then remember to subscribe/follow on Apple Podcasts and Spotify.

Episode 5 in our series tackling mental health. It's only 8 minutes long, so it doesn't take much time out of your day, but hopefully it provides some solace. In this one, Luke examines pain and how it can be the catalyst for positive change.  Find us on Instagram: @thenakedstudent_ and hit up our blog: www.tnsblog.com.

Welcome to episode 4 of our series on mental health. In this episode, Luke examines the concept of toxic positivity or, in other words, not allowing ourselves to feel negative emotions. This one is only 10 minutes long, as all episodes will be in this series. Hopefully it gets you thinking... You can find us on Insta: @thenakedstudent_ and our blog: www.tnsblog.com. 

Welcome to episode 3 of our series on mental health. A shorter episode again to make it nice and easy to find time in the day. Apologies for the slight delay in getting this one out, just had SO much uni work going on (as I'm sure many of you will as well). Hope the episode gets you thinking as per.

Welcome to episode 1 of series 4! This series will consist of short, 10 minute episodes, so that you don't have to take much time out of your day during this Christmas period. I want to tackle the incredibly important topic of mental health and I hope this first episode helps you to remember that you are never alone. Always reach out.  Over the coming episodes, I'll be discussing topics such as authentic happiness, toxic positivity, habits, reframing pain and much more. Christmas can be a very hard time for people. So let's be there for each other whenever we can. You can find us on Insta: @thenakedstudent. Check out our blog: www.tnsblog.com.

Today, I'm joined by Eliza over Zoom for a wonderful conversation. We begin (2:23) by discussing MiC and being a celebrity at university. We then move on to discuss Instagram and Eliza's charity work via the platform. We round off by talking about her plans for the future. Eliza was a wonderful guest - enjoy the episode!
