Since his first appearance on Feel Better Live More, way back in 2018, Dr Gabor Maté has become a valued friend, as well as a regular guest. I’m proud to say that he recently joined me in London as a guest speaker on the Prescribing Lifestyle Medicine course that I co-created with Dr Ayan Panja, to teach healthcare professionals the principles of lifestyle medicine. 

We recorded this conversation - Gabor’s 4th appearance on my show - a couple of weeks ago in London the day before that event, and we both agreed that it is perhaps our favourite conversation to date.

For anyone not aware, Gabor is respected the world over as an expert on trauma, stress, addiction and childhood development. He is a physician, speaker and international bestselling author of some truly game-changing books such as When the Body Says No and The Myth of Normal - which has just come out in paperback.

As this is Gabor’s 4th appearance on my podcast, I was keen to explore some new ground and different topics. Gabor has worked as a family doctor as well as in palliative (end of life) care. Back on Episode 383 of this podcast, I had a wonderful conversation with Bronnie Ware, author of the book, The Five Regrets of the Dying and I thought it would be interesting to examine each of these 5 regrets, through the lens of Gabor’s thoughts and work. 

We chat through all five of these regrets and Gabor provides some thought-provoking insights on each of them. He explains why we work so hard to the detriment of time with family and friends. We talk about how disease can be a teacher, why it’s vital children grow up able to express their emotions, and how we wish more doctors were aware of the connection between emotions and physical health.

We discuss happiness and if it’s possible to be happy or seek happiness when there is so much suffering in the world. This leads us on to talk about the nature of forgiveness, curiosity, compassion, and also regret. Gabor says that living life with ‘no regrets’ is about learning and understanding from your perceived mistakes, but not being unkind to who you were then. Instead we should recognise that we did the best we could do at the time.

Like all of my previous episodes with Gabor, this is a powerful conversation full of compassion, knowledge and wisdom. I hope you enjoy listening.

Romantic love isn’t all it’s cracked up to be – at least that’s one way positive psychologist Barbara Fredrickson puts it. Barbara’s decades of research suggest that emotions outside of our narrow definition of love are just as important to our well-being. In this episode, Barbara shares what to look for when we want to broaden our experience of positive emotions, and suggests ways to build the consistent connection and care at the heart of our best relationships.

Welcome back to another episode of The Viall Files: Ask Nick Edition! We’re back to answer your burning questions about the world of dating and relationships. Before getting to our callers, we read an email from a listener who’s ex-boyfriend, now situationship, introduces her to all of his family, but keeps putting their relationship on pause when things start getting serious.

Then, we get to our callers. 

Our first caller’s boyfriend will stay out longer when he’s by himself than when they go out together. She expresses her insecurities and experiences with the quality of their time together. Our second caller’s husband turned off his location during an argument, and is now refusing to turn it back on. She stays home with the kids for days, while he’s constantly at work and with friends late. Our final caller “feels like a single mom with a husband.” As a trucker, he loves the freedom of being on the road, but our caller has to constantly remind him of their crying child and what tasks to do around the house. 

“The fact that he refuses to acknowledge that is not a me problem. It’s a him problem.”

When someone pulls away, it can be difficult to navigate. Often times we feel like we did something wrong to mess the relationship up. It can cause a lot of anxiety if we're not sure where the other person stands or why they're distancing themselves...when everything seemed to be going well. In this episode, I talk about what to do when they pull away from you - and how to handle it like a pro. You'll feel better in no time baby.

In this episode of What Would Leo Do, Leo talks about setting boundaries without losing people, fixing toxic habits, & never feeling like an option again.

Welcome back to The Viall Files! Today we have another special “where are they now” update show where we give you updates from our past callers, to see what’s happened in their situations and relationships since appearing on the show. 

We bring on our first caller who was struggling being the only single person in her work group, and had started having dreams about her ex. We find out how she handled the company holiday party and how shifting her mindset has changed her life. Our second caller was ghosted by a long term friend and wasn’t sure how to reach out or what to text her. Did she reach out, and what did she hear back?  Finally, we get an update from our caller that was debating moving abroad with her boyfriend, and find out if she was willing to take the risk. 

We also have some written updates - our caller who had a situationship with her CrossFit coach and now has to see him at the gym, and our caller who was still crying daily about her ex 10 months after the break up - both write back in to let us know exactly what happened. 

To catch up on all of these callers original questions please see the show numbers:
