The You Project

This episode is all about body awareness, mind awareness (metacognition), creating a personal operating system, the space between discipline and obsession, self-regulation and self-actualisation (becoming who and how we want to be), owning up to our BS without the self-condemnation and lots more. Enjoy.

We’ve done a few Q&A sessions before, but this might just be my favourite. We explored vast territory with a lot of great and diverse questions from you, our listeners. A quick snapshot of what we covered.. If my self-perception changed doing a PhD. Music and emotions. My advice on supporting our much-loved oldies. Voluntary assisted dying. My diet. Dealing with dad‘s death. Self talk. Asymmetrical bodies. Who inspires me. What shapes us to be who we are. Nervous system regulation. And lots more. And yes, this is a two part-er.

This time around, Dr Bill and I discuss ancient wisdom that is as relevant and powerful today as it was millennia ago. We talk about some of the core ideas, messages, stories and lessons taught by the Stoics before the apostles were playing beach volleyball and how they (the Stoics) were the psychologists, sociologists and human behaviour experts, of the day. It appears the world has changed a lot, but we have not. Many of the same issues, challenges and problems remain. That is, all the human stuff. Enjoy.

Well, it’s been a while but I’m back in the TYP Studio to get the wheels turning again. A little two week unplanned sabbatical for very grown-up reasons, but I’m excited about what’s coming up over the next thousand episodes (LOL). In this episode, I explore the idea of chasing things that we want, but don’t necessarily need, and the psychology behind this endless pursuit of things that we convince ourselves are super important. In many ways, it’s me thinking out loud about the interesting beliefs we have about what will make us feel calm, content, happy, satisfied, safe and successful.
