Martyn's 'Unravelling', Emotional Abuse and Becoming and Ironman
Martyn uses the concept of 'Dark Night of the Soul' to discuss with you the unravelling he encountered following the 'failed' adoption experience he shared in Episode 16. He uses his social media history to recount the experiences of the time. He filled the gap created after deciding to not adopt with a deep dive into yoga, starting to train for the Lakesman (an Ironman distance event), continuing to overwork, seek perfection and consequently becoming extremely vulnerable.
This is part 1 of Episode 17, in part 2 he will explore the dissolution he had to go through, perfectly catalysed by a deeply unfulfilling and emotionally abusive relationship, and shedding so many unhelpful layers of who he knew himself to be. From this empty and dark place the Lakesman training was a constant and brought him out the other side stronger, more resilient, lighter and ready for the next chapter.

Failed Adoption, Toxic Relationships and Exhaustion
Today you have a solo episode with host Martyn talking about the story of his failed attempt at becoming a parent through adoption.
The enthusiasm he felt following his change of career and leaving an unfulfilling 10 year relationship meant he definitely overdid things, entering into several toxic relationships, personally and professionally, which ultimately led to a painful unravelling after deciding to give up on the adoption process. This unravelling will be detailed in Episode 17.
