Description

If you’ve ever felt like you’re living a double life
looking strong, successful, and sorted on the outside,
but secretly falling apart behind closed doors,
this episode is for you.

Rob gets brutally honest about what it’s like to be the one who always has it together, while silently carrying emotional eating, burnout, shame, and high-functioning anxiety underneath it all.

Inside this episode:

  • Why “strong” doesn’t mean “safe”
  • How people-pleasing and perfectionism become emotional masks
  • What no one tells you about the guilt that comes up when you finally start healing
  • Why being honest about your pain doesn’t make you a victim, it makes you free
  • The link between emotional suppression, binge behaviour, and identity loss

This episode isn’t about blaming anyone.
 It’s about finally telling the truth about how f*cking exhausting it is to keep pretending.
