January 26, 2026 · 1 h 6 min

Show notes

In Episode 23 of Into Deep, Geoff sits down with Nick Slater — actor and full-time content creator best known for his viral relationship skits and attachment-style characters — for a conversation that moves far beyond social media.

Nick shares his journey from growing up in Brisbane to acting from a young age, landing a US network TV show, chasing Hollywood, and ultimately returning home to rebuild his life. From there, the conversation opens into avoidant attachment, modern dating, self-esteem, and why Nick believes love is not just a feeling — but a daily choice.

Nick also speaks candidly about losing his dad to a brain tumour, the impact of being given time to say goodbye, and the moment that reshaped how he views life, health, and spirituality.

Together, Geoff and Nick explore masculinity during conflict, emotional regulation, meditation, visualisation, and the rituals Nick uses to support his mental and physical health — including sauna, ice baths, and intentional movement. They also unpack the darker side of social media, the importance of curating your algorithm, and why presence in real life matters more than ever.

If you’ve been navigating dating apps, relationship triggers, grief, or the pressure to “make it,” this episode offers grounded insight, reflection, and perspective.
