A hundred years ago (feels like) I read Stephen Covey's 'The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People.' Habit 5 is the title of this episode and over the years this directive (to understand others) has proven to be one of the most powerful, relevant and helpful ideas across a broad range of situations, contexts and roles (for me). Not only has it been invaluable in my capacity as a Coach, Professional Speaker, Exercise Scientist, Business Owner, Author, and Podcaster, but also, it is the cornerstone of my PhD research; understanding ‘The You Experience' (for others). Keep in mind that 'to understand' does not mean to agree, align or condone; no, it just means to have (some) insight into the thoughts, feelings, drivers and actions of others. Enjoy.

Like myself and many of you, Ash Millo (and her body) have had a pretty interesting journey. Losing the best part of 70kgs, changing her thinking, habits, behaviours and lifestyle, undergoing surgery to remove loose skin, learning how to socialise without compromising her new health habits, building a different relationship with her body, recognising and changing destructive patterns and behaviours, the ever-present challenge of not allowing her body to become her identity and creating a personal operating that will work for her over the long term. This was a fun chat and I believe for some people, it will be helpful and insightful. Enjoy. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

#1518 Inside-Out Transformation - Ashleigh Millo

Good old Gillespo is back challenging convention, reminding me that psychology is BS, rocking the research boat and positing a new and fascinating theory on the most devastating of eating disorders; Anorexia Nervosa. Enjoy. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

#1517 Addiction in Reverse: The Link Between Anorexia and Reward Deficiency - David Gillespie

A few weeks ago, TYP regulars Brad and Carly Cunningham had their amazing Training Centre (The Fit Shop in Cheltenham) burn to the ground, losing their business and the amazing ‘third space' they had created for their members. This episode is a quick catch-up with Brad to see where things are at now and let's just say that their story is one of resilience, resourcefulness and the amazing kindness and generosity of awesome people ready to role up their sleeves, open their hearts and help a young family when they need it the most. Enjoy.

#1516 Out Of The Ashes - Brad Cunningham

I was recently on The Paul Taylor Podcast, chatting about my PhD research in the areas of metacognition, theory of mind, meta-perception and meta-accuracy, and as always, it was an interesting, intellectual and fun conversation. This episode is a co-share. Enjoy. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

#1515 A Snapshot Of My Research - Paul Taylor

This is the episode I that really didn't want to record because, no matter the intention, the science, the data or the reason for the conversation, it seems that we live in a culture where some people will find a way to get offended, angry or hateful, no matter what. As an exercise scientist, educator, one-time morbidly obese child (teenager and adult), former gym owner and fitness professional who has trained thousands of people and dealt with his own body (and emotional) issues for decades, I have endeavoured to explore this topic through a lens of love, compassion, practicality and clinical research.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
