A New Way of Being

Take Perspective From History: Professor Suzannah Lipscomb


Listen Later

What can reflecting on history teach us about living well now? In this episode we are talking about learning lessons from history, particularly perspective and empathy. We also question what impact the suppression of the 'feminine principle', as has happened over the last two thousand years, has had. In the first half we talk about getting in flow, digital minimalism, tapping into creativity, the importance of making complex concepts understandable, the perennial problem of tribalism and much more besides.


Professor Suzzanah Lipscomb is an award-winning historian, author and broadcaster. She hosts the 'Not Just the Tudors' podcast, produced by History Hit. She has presented numerous TV programmes including The Royals: A History of Scandals; has written and edited seven books, most recently, What is History, Now? with Helen Carr; is Professor Emerita at the University of Roehampton; Senior Member at St Cross College, Oxford; and a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society and the Society of Antiquaries; she was formerly Research Curator at Hampton Court Palace and has won multiple awards throughout her career.

My debut book - Champion Thinking: How To Find Success Without Losing Yourself - is available for pre-order now. Drawing on some of my favourite interviews from this podcast over the last five years, I want to challenge our ideas about 'success', and where peace, joy and fulfilment are truly to be found. Flow is a fundamental theme.
