Are we really just “talking about our feelings” instead of doing the work?
In this episode of Can I Be Candid? Podcast, hosts Tracey Raye and Dilly Kular dive deep into why so many of us stay stuck in the loop of discussion instead of transformation, and how your past doesn’t have to define you, think of it more like your origin story (yes, like Batman’s).

The one thing Dilly & Tracey have learnt is to ask "What did I learn from this?"

🔬 We look at fascinating research on mindset, including the recent study “Associations of meditation with telomere dynamics: a case–control study in healthy adults” (published in Frontiers in Psychology) showing how long‑term meditation is linked with favourable changes to telomeres and cellular ageing.

🧠 In this candid conversation, we cover:

• Why talking about your feelings can feel safe, but doesn’t always mean you’re changing
• How your childhood, trauma or story can be your superpower instead of your prison
• What telomeres are, how they relate to stress, mindset and ageing
• Why mindset isn’t just fluff, it’s biological (yes, even at the cellular level)
• Real‑world tips to shift from “just speaking” to truly doing and becoming

Whether you’re a parent juggling life, a wellness‑curious soul, or someone who’s done with surface‑level change, this episode gives you depth, insights, humour and actionable takeaways.

💡 Let’s move beyond the talk. Time to reshape your mindset, reclaim your story and change how you are in the world.

Think you’re getting enough vitamin D just from the sun? Think again.

In this myth-busting episode, we dive into the most common misconceptions about vitamin D, from sunscreen blocking absorption to whether Vitamin D supplements really work and if sun exposure is enough (spoiler: it usually isn’t).

Learn the truth behind vitamin D metabolism, the impact of UVB rays, and why timing your sun exposure matters more than you think. We also cover why vitamin D has a short half-life, what kind of supplements actually work, and why even multivitamins might not be cutting it.

🧠 In this video, we answer:
- Can you get enough vitamin D from the sun?
- Does sunscreen block vitamin D production?
- Do tanning beds help with vitamin D?
- Are all vitamin D supplements effective?
- Do you only need vitamin D in winter?
- Why does vitamin D affect more than just your bones?

🔍 Featuring insights like Professor Emilian Moan’s findings on UV exposure and melanoma risk, and critical facts on vitamin D’s half-life, this is your go-to video for understanding the real science behind vitamin D.
