Mel Bampton Presents...How Human
This podcast is all about exploring what it means to be human. What traits, qualities and experiences we share, no matter how different we are and in searching for and celebrating our differences, finding our similarities.
Do you ever find yourself plagued with uncertainty? Paralysed by self-doubt? Are you ever confused about what to do, how to behave, what to say or even what to feel? Being human is weird. It comes with no instruction manual, it’s riddled with contradictions and as we age we seem to get less and more wise, just when we think we’ve figured something out, everything changes, again.
This podcast is that missing handbook - in which we go deeper than just the details of the stories and by looking through different lenses, we find the things that truly make us…human.
My name is Mel Bampton, I’m a presenter, a speaker, an author and a therapist and in this series I’m bringing all those things together to help you agonise a little less by understanding a little more the things that are fundamentals, not flaws, of what it means to be one of this bizarre and curious species.
This is the podcast where you learn to become a little kinder to yourself by first and foremost understanding what you fundamentally are.

How To Break-Up Well with Nikki Parkinson
Is there any more difficult terrain to navigate as a human being, than heartbreak? That wretched feeling when you know something has to end, it’s crushing, you feel your whole world tilting sideways and you know that things will never be the same – whether that’s because of an event, someone has crossed a line that there’s no going back from or because of the slow corrosion of a relationship dying over time.
How good would you say you are at breaking up? What feelings does the very thought of a breakup initiate in your body? Are you in the pain of separation right now – at the start, the thick heavy going middle or the time of grief that comes with the spaciousness of the definitive end? How are you holding up? Are you separating as well as you'd like?
In this episode of How Human, we’re looking at How To Break Up Well.
Nikki Parkinson is a Divorce and Separation Doula, Coach, Strategist, Parenting Coordinator, with 30 years of experience in Family Law, she’s spoken at TEDx on these topics but her biggest learning curve was her own divorce. Nikki. During one of the hardest times of our lives, can we go into it - despite all of the hurt - with the goal of doing it well and achieve a wonderful outcome?
