A short intro into an all too often said phrase and one that (potentially controversial) is inaccurate. In this episode I look to challenge the perspective of ‘I don’t have time’ by asking a few simple questions. Also included is info on my upcoming productivity specials...

An often proposed option for making a decision is to ask ‘what would (insert name of trusted/respected/knowledgable person) do?’. In this short episode I briefly cover why that might not be the best question to ask and ok course suggest a more effective alternative...

In this 2 part episode I cover why we might be feeling more tired than usual and what we can do about it as well as a couple of approaches that might help those struggling to sleep due to minds racing!! They are generic due to the nature of a podcast and if you have a situation that you think I can help with then get in touch.

Habits are conscious decisions that have been made so often that they become unconscious. Which, if it’s a good habit, is great as it takes very little brain power to do it! In this episode I share a couple of ideas on how you can help stick to habits and how using the same approaches in your organisation can increase the likelihood of staff following procedure and protocols.

The subject of not being valued or appreciated by people comes up quite often when I’m talking to people that are unhappy or un-motivated at work. In this episode I share a few different ways in which to view the situation in the hope that they might allow you to think and therefore feel differently (better) about not being valued. This can of course be applied out side the work place too...

If a creature that has evolved over millennia to its environment can screw up then we sure can as well... However, having an off day, week or even month doesn’t define you as inept, useless or a failure. In this episode I share a recent experience where I ‘fell out of my tree’ along with some important lessons that resulted.

For some the assessments that are part and parcel of a career in the outdoors are a source of great stress. Being nervous and apprehensive is natural but it can lead to people focusing on the wrong things and actually contributing or causing that which they were focused on avoiding - deferment or failure. In this special episode I cover a host of tactics, concepts and approaches aimed to help you be at your natural beat at assessment. To gain, regain or maintain control during times of pressure and focused attention. I’ve set this episode out into sections to make it easy to access topics that you might want to re visit. Have a listen and get in touch with any questions!

Assessment stress, burnout, deferral, getting in your own way, marginal losses - many lessons and takeaways in this for anyone preparing for an assessment.

Heads up - I swear in this one but only a little bit! Today I talk tiredness and the effects of it on our ability to function. We all know this but how many do anything about it?

In this episode I share some lessons and key takeaways from 2 different experiences I had over the summer. In particular around biases, expectation vs reality and what is professional conduct.
