Scenic Route, Social Change and Mental Health Conversations for Perfectionists - Podcast

Scenic Route, Social Change and Mental Health Conversations for Perfectionists

You’ve outgrown perfection, but not your desire to grow.
This is the place where high-functioners, deep feelers, and quiet rebels come home to themselves.

We explore:

  • Mental health wisdom (minus toxic positivity)
  • Social change (that starts from within)
  • System critiques (with actionable solutions)
  • Inner wisdom (over external validation)
  • Mindfulness for minimalists (no crystals required)


Join Jennifer Walter, sociologist (MASoc UCC) and recovering perfectionist, for weekly conversations that blend critical thinking with oh-so-much compassion.

If you’re questioning everything – or just trying to stay grounded in a chaotic world – this space is for you. We make room for your inner critic and collective action. Because personal healing and social change go hand in hand (with a side of potty humour).

New episodes drop every Tuesday.

The longest way round is the shortest way home – and that's exactly why we're taking the Scenic Route.
