Worldwide DJs Shopping at Woolworths w/ Carl Cox + Kayla Wilson | Finding the Middle Ep. 4
Finding the Middle
08/06/23 • 37 min
Welcome to the fourth episode of 'Finding the Middle' with my good friend Kayla Wilson and world-renowned DJ - Carl Cox.
The aim of this episode was to have an extremely famous individual share what they believe to be important and Carl rightfully mentions the pertinence of: connection, following your passion and trying to do what you love wherever possible.
I included this excerpt from an old project as Carl not only shared his time and insights with us for free, he is also a shining example of someone who has found his centre. He addresses that he still wouldn't be kicking around if he didn't have a fiery passion for getting behind the decks, especially in the music/events industry.
It was an absolute pleasure to get the opportunity to speak with him and he has left such a lasting impression on me three years on, so hopefully he can do the same for you.
Any feedback is greatly appreciated and it would also be amazing if you could please share this episode. If you think that someone else could benefit from 'Finding the Middle', every share helps my mission grow.

Wanking, Worry & Wealth | Finding the Middle Ep. 7
Finding the Middle
07/23/24 • 56 min
Welcome to the seventh episode of 'Finding the Middle' with Raff's thoughts on vulnerable, brave responses sent in anonymously!
The aim of this episode was for listeners to have the opportunity to share something they are struggling with behind closed doors and break through the various barriers that may be stopping them from seeking out a mental health professional.
Finances, stigma/shame, time and a variety of other difficulties make it impossible for some to access the help they need and with this medium, Finding the Middle hopes to create a big enough shift for listeners to do that.
Please take in what was shared by these responses and I hope a perspective resonates with you.

It was an absolute pleasure to sit down with him again and yes, I don't keep my glasses in a case.

Forgiveness, Love & Compassion w/ David Titeu + Tyler Palmer | Finding the Middle Ep. 3
Finding the Middle
07/18/23 • 101 min
Welcome to the third episode of 'Finding the Middle' with two of my close friends, David Titeu + Tyler Palmer.
The aim of this episode was to help you deepen your own understanding of forgiveness, love and compassion within your life through rich insights from two very self-aware individuals.
Both Tyler + David have played a huge part in my mental health journey, who both possess astounding qualities that are worth way more than their extensive collection of accolades.
These topics are not often discussed between groups of mates and I invite you to lean further into the discomfort, as that is where some real learning begins.

Happy Being Imperfect w/ Lyndon Medina | Finding the Middle Ep. 2
Finding the Middle
04/10/23 • 84 min
Welcome to the second episode of 'Finding the Middle' and first guest episode with Counselling Psychologist, Lyndon Medina!
The aim of this episode was to help you get to know Lyndon's story, insight into various forms of therapy and alternatives that shocked even myself.
The title of the podcast is 'Happy Being Imperfect' because as I was leaving the RMIT car park, I asked Lyndon if he would like to listen to the episode before going live and he replied, "don't stress Raff, I'm happy being imperfect".
I'm very lucky to call Lyndon a friend and the reflections shared in this episode can hopefully assist you in whatever stage of life you are in at the moment.
Any feedback is greatly appreciated and it would also be amazing if you could please leave a review. If you think that someone else could benefit from 'Finding the Middle', every share helps my mission grow.

What is 'Finding the Middle'? | Ep. 1
Finding the Middle
03/12/23 • 21 min
Welcome to the very first episode of 'Finding the Middle' and I'm very excited to be able to finally share this with you!
The aim of this first episode was to explain what I'm aiming to do with this podcast and provide some background about why I started Balanced Blokes.
I delve into research and stories about urinating on myself, relationship breakdowns and a brave year 11 boy who really impacted me with what he was able to share.
Every episode will be designed to impact you and the content will be aimed to help you reflect on what your definition of middle is. The goal is not to tell you what to do but as a guide if you are feeling unsure of your pathway. I still feel lost and lack motivation at the best of times but what I’m trying to accept are the beautiful natural abilities that I possess - vulnerability, sensitivity and empathy. I hope this podcast can help you accept whatever you are struggling with.
Any feedback is greatly appreciated and it would also be amazing if you could please leave a review. If you also think that someone else could benefit from 'Finding the Middle', every share helps my mission grow.
