In this episode, Doreen and Megan dive into the theme of Belonging with Tayo Rockson, whose life as a global citizen, diplomat's son, writer, and basketball lover has uniquely shaped his perspective on identity, inclusion, and community. Together, they explore how moving across cultures influences our understanding of self, the growing crisis of belonging in a polarized, fast-paced world, and practical tools for cultivating more inclusive communities.Key Topics & Takeaways:Tayo's Global Journey:Raised in five countries across four continents by age 17.Navigating identity as a Nigerian living abroad: Code-switching, language barriers, and the pressure to “fit in”The concept of "lily pad thinking" - that is growth through incremental changes rather than binary leapsBelonging in Today's World:We're experiencing a “crisis of community, identity, and values.”Binary (either/or) thinking and social media are fueling division and reducing our opportunities for true connection.We need to slow down, reflect, and get comfortable with nuance, discomfort, and messiness.Moving from Head to Heart:Practicing basic self-inquiry—What am I feeling? Why? How will I respond?Importance of understanding personal biases, values, and triggers.Ownership over our roles, both as those affected by bias and as people who may perpetuate it unconsciously.Authenticity & Inclusivity:Authenticity starts with asking “Who do I want to show up as?”The power of stating your needs and values, even when it's uncomfortable.Perfectionism and “the invisibility cloak”—how hiding our messiness suppresses humanity and connection.For Leaders:“Don't be afraid to be human.”Admitting mistakes and modeling vulnerability fosters psychological safety and real team connection.Perfection can be oppressive—process and progress matter.Lightning Round Highlights:Synonyms for belonging: Safety, home, appreciation, understanding.Language Tayo would learn: Igbo (Nigerian tribal language).Dream destination: Singapore.Tayo's Motto:“Use your difference to make a difference.”Embrace uniqueness as a superpower. Start with similarity if difference feels challenging.Recommended Resources:Use Your Difference to Make a Difference – Tayo's BookAs Told By Nomads – Tayo's Podcast ArchiveRethinking by Adam Grant (book reference)Paradise Found (film) – For lighter reflections on difference and belongingConnect with Tayo:Website & Socials: tyrockson.com | @tyrockson everywhereClosing Quote:“Real belonging does not require that we change.

Parenting in the digital age can feel overwhelming, but it doesn't have to be. For this episode, Emily brings in the insight of Ash Brandin for a thoughtful conversation about her book, Power On, and what healthy screen use can actually look like for families. With over 15 years of hands-on experience teaching in the classroom, Ash shares a perspective that moves away from fear and guilt, encouraging parents to think about screens with the same balance and neutrality we often bring to food or other everyday choices.By the end, you'll hopefully have a more compassionate lens for thinking about tech and some practical, flexible ideas for creating a calm, balanced approach to screen time that truly fits with your own family's life.Listen and Learn: How viewing kids' screen time with moral neutrality can help parents move past guilt and fear to understand the real purposes screens serve and the deeper systemic issues driving our reliance on themWhy the old “two-hour screen limit” is outdated and oversimplified, and how a personalized family media plan can lead to healthier, more sustainable screen useReframing of screen time and how systemic factors make it unfair to place all the blame or responsibility on individual parents, and why true change requires collective, not individual, solutionsHow self-determination theory explains kids' relationships with screens, not as addiction but as a way to meet core needs for autonomy, competence, and connection, and how parents can stay neutral, understand what needs are being met, and help kids find healthy, varied ways to fulfill themWhy not everything that releases dopamine is addictive, how our relationship to an activity matters more than the activity itself, and why screens aren't “evil dopamine machines”Resources: Power on: Managing Screen Time to Benefit the Whole Family https://bookshop.org/a/30734/9780306836992Ash's Website https://www.thegamereducator.com/Connect with Ashon Social Media: https://www.instagram.com/thegamereducatorhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/ash-brandin025For More on Ash's Work, Subscribe to their Substack https://thegamereducator.substack.com/ About Ash BrandinAsh Brandin, EdS, known online as TheGamerEducator, empowers families to make screen time sustainable, manageable, and beneficial for the whole family.

PresenterドクターDイングリッシュ発音ディレクター Dr. D・英語を「声」から変える発音専門スクール・１万人以上の発音を変えた実績・年間１０００匹くらい魚釣りますAsked Meを滑らかにつなぐ方法ではまず先ほどのフレーズを、どうやって滑らかに発音したのかを解説します！He asked me to take that job.まず一番発音しにくい、「Asked Me」をどうやったら滑らかに発音できるのか？Asked Meが発音しづらい理由これが発音しづらいのは子音が連続するからです。しかも破裂音が多く含まれている。ちょっとこのフレーズの発音記号をご覧ください。/askt-mee/子音が４つも連続していますよね。これは日本語では絶対に起こり得ない発音パターンなんですね。これを素直に全部発音しようとするから、音に詰まってしまって滑らかに発音できないというわけです。特に/k/, /t/が音の詰まりの原因になります。Asked Meを滑らかに言う方法音が詰まりやすい /k/, /t/ は発音しません。しかし、発音しないと言っても、完全に無視するわけじゃありません。完全に無視した場合の発音は、/as-mee/となります。これではおかしい。じゃどうやって発音するかと言うと、/kt/ を弾かなければいいだけです。いちいち全ての子音を弾くから、音に詰まりが生じるわけです。弾かずに子音を発音すると言うのは、音をミュートする感覚です。なので、「それぞれの子音のポジションはちゃんと取るが、音は出さない」といった感覚です。ではちょっとだけ練習してみましょう！/as(kt)-mee/そうすると、完全に/kt/を無視して /as-mee/ と発音するのと違って、ちゃんと /kt/ の間が生まれますよね。この「間」を作ることがすごく大事です。Asked Meの発音を応用では、この音の繋ぎ方を他にも応用できないだろうか。ということで、このAsked Meと同じ発音パターンを紹介します。Talked to me /tah(kt)-tu-mee/He talked to me in class.Helped me /hel(pt)-mee/He helped me out.Exactly /e(g)-za(kt)-lee/That's exactly the same.これらのパターンにはある共通点があるのが分かりますか？そう、「音節尾の破裂音」をミュートして発音することで、次の音節に滑らかに繋いでいるわけです。しかも、これはたった一つのパターンに過ぎませんが、実は英語はこのパターンがすごく多いんです。なので、これを一つ覚えておくだけで、長い文章を読んだ時などでも、かなり発音しやすくなるはずです。文章を滑らかに発音それでは今回の発音パターンを利用して文章を読んでみましょう！出典：TED（The surprising habits of original thinkers | Adam Grant）http://ted.com/dubbing/adam_grant_the_surprising_habits_of_original_thinkers/Seven years ago,/se-vun-yeerz-uh-gou/ a student came to me /uh-stoo-den(t)-keim-tu-mee/and asked me to invest in his company./an(d)-as(kt)-mee-tu-in-ves(t)-in-hiz-kum-puh-nee/He said, "I'm working with three friends,/hi-se(d), aim-wer-kin(g)-wi(th)-three-frendz/and we're going to try to disrupt an industry/an(d)-wer-go-nuh-trai-tu-dis-ru(pt)-an-in-dust-tree/ by selling stuff online." /bai-se-lin(g)-stuf-ahn-lain/And I said, /an(d)-ai-se(d)/"OK, you guys spent the whole summer on this, right?" /ou-kei, yoo-guyz-spen(t)-thuh-houl-suh-mer-ahn-this-rai(t)?/"No, we all took internships just in case it doesn't work out." /nou-wee-too(k)-in-tern-ships-jus(t)-in-keis-i(t) duzn-wer(k)-aut/"All right, but you're going to go in full time once you graduate." /al-rai(t), bu(t)-yer-go-nuh-gou-in-ful-taim-wuns-yoo-gra-due(t)/"Not exactly. /nah(t)-e(g)-za(kt)-lee/We've all lined up backup jobs." /wiv-al-lain(d)-u(p)-ba(k)-u(p)-jahbs/Six months go by, /siks-mun(ths)-gou-bai/it's the day before the company launches, /its-thuh-dei-bi-for-thuh-kum-puh-nee-lahn-chiz/and there is still not a functioning website./an(d)-theirs-stil-nah(t)-uh-fun(k)-shuh-nin(g)-we(b)-sai(t)/"You guys realize, the entire company is a website./yoo-gaiz-ria-laiz, thi-en-tair-kum-puh-nee-iz-uh-we(b)-sai(t)/ That's literally all it is." /tha(ts)-li-der-uh-li-al-i(t)-is/So I obviously declined to invest./sou-ai-ah-vius-lee-di-klain(d)-tu-in-ves(t)/

In this episode of The Practice of Being Human, Marta reflects on the growing role of AI companions and what their rise reveals about our longing for ease, validation, and control.But she reminds us — friction is not a flaw in human connection. It's the fertile ground where growth, understanding, and love take root.Through insights inspired by Adam Grant, Marta invites you to see tension and discomfort as opportunities for expansion — for building the emotional muscles of patience, curiosity, forgiveness, and humility.Because while AI might comfort us, only real relationships can transform us.This conversation is an invitation to stay — to remain tender, awake, and willing to be shaped by the beautiful mess of being human.

What does high performance really demand from the human mind? In this conversation, world-leading organisational psychologist Adam Grant explores how the best performers think, learn, and lead.Adam unpacks why great leaders build challenge networks instead of echo chambers, how to recognise when ego is driving your decisions instead of growth, and why real loyalty means speaking up, not staying silent.This is a practical and profound guide to sustainable success, one that brings clarity, calm, and confidence to anyone striving to perform at their best.

Jeder von uns wurde schon einmal verletzt, betrogen oder belogen. Es gibt Dinge im Leben, die unverzeihlich zu sein scheinen. Die erste Reaktion ist oft Wut, Hass oder sogar der Gedanke an Rache. Doch statt uns in der Hoffnungslosigkeit des Unrechts zu verlieren, gibt es einen heilsamen Weg: Vergebung. Vergebung ist eine kraftvolle Reaktion auf Unrecht – aber welche psychologischen Prozesse stecken dahinter? Wie kann man vergeben, ohne das Unrecht zu vergessen? Vergebung scheint einen Widerspruch zu erfordern: Man muss sich sowohl erinnern als auch loslassen, um zu vergeben. Wie kann das funktionieren? Atze und Leon tauchen in die spannende Psychologie von Vergebung und Erinnerung und entdecken: Erinnern ist kein starres Konstrukt – ich kann meine Erinnerung verändern, so dass ich Frieden finde und es mir am Ende besser damit geht.

In this heartfelt conversation with R. Dr. J.J. Schacter, we explore the way the Halacha defines the commandment to feel joy on Sukkot and by extension on all holidays. How can the Torah command us to feel? What does joy look like in the current moment? Sources mentioned in the episode: R. Amital's essay: https://www.etzion.org.il/en/philosophy/great-thinkers/harav-yehuda-amital/commitment-vs-connecting-current-crisis-our-youth Option B by Sheryl Sandberg and Adam Grant: https://www.amazon.com/Option-Adversity-Building-Resilience-Finding/dp/1524732680 This episode has been dedicated by Debbie Niderberg in memory of her father Barry Morris z"l.

In a time when the headlines are bleak and social feeds are filled with outrage, what does it mean to be deliberately optimistic? In this episode of Gratitude Through Hard Times, host Chris Schembra sits down with returning guest Mattan Griffel, two-time Y Combinator–backed founder, award-winning Columbia Business School professor, and longtime startup coach, to rethink optimism from the inside out.This isn't a conversation about pretending everything is fine. It's a practical, science-backed exploration of how to keep moving forward when the world tries to convince you to freeze. Chris and Mattan unpack the psychology of negativity, including the brain's nine-to-one negative memory bias, nostalgia's hidden trap, and how media algorithms profit from fear, and then turn to the tools that can rewire us toward progress and resilience.Along the way, they revisit some of Mattan's most powerful ideas: the courage of “naive optimism” that makes founders start companies against impossible odds; serendipity bombs, small outward actions that quietly build networks and opportunity; and the truth that being wrong most of the time is the price of doing something original.The conversation is both personal and practical. Chris shares stories of producing a two-man play in Beverly Hills under the threat of a record-breaking El Niño storm, and how standing in the room with committed collaborators fueled hope despite fear. Mattan reflects on early YouTube criticism that almost derailed him, and how understanding our negativity bias changed his response to rejection and failure.Listeners will also hear how positive emotions aren't just nice-to-have; they're powerful mental technology. Chris cites Barbara Fredrickson's “broaden-and-build” research, showing how gratitude, curiosity, and empathy expand our thought–action repertoire, unlock creativity, and make new solutions visible. Together they argue that optimism isn't fluffy, it's a survival skill in an age of AI disruption, social media outrage cycles, and cultural pessimism.By the end of the episode, you'll have practical habits to invite luck and possibility into your own life: connect generously, say yes early and often, ship ideas at 90% instead of chasing perfection, and create rooms where pessimism can't dominate. Most importantly, you'll be reminded that hope is not passive, it's built one intentional step at a time.10 Quotes“Optimism isn't blind faith that everything will be fine, it's the conviction that progress is buildable.” — Mattan“Our brains take in nine bits of negative information for every one bit of positive. That's biology, not failure.” — Chris“Nostalgia can be beautiful, but it's often denial, an inability to process the present.” — Chris“Systems are self-healing if we let them. The line of human progress trends up and to the right, even if it wobbles.” — Mattan“Negativity sells. Each negative word in a headline can boost clicks by 2.3%, but positive words get ignored.” — Chris“You have to be wrong most of the time to create something new. Error tolerance is optimism in action.” — Mattan“The stupid way to be selfish is to seek happiness for yourself alone; the intelligent way is to work for the welfare of others.” — Dalai Lama (quoted by Chris)“Say yes early and often because most conversations won't go anywhere, but the one that does can change your life.” — Mattan“Progress comes from movement, not perfection. Press go at 90%.” — Chris“Positive emotions broaden your thought–action repertoire, gratitude and curiosity literally rewire your brain for resilience.” — Chris (referencing Barbara Fredrickson)10 Big TakeawaysOptimism is a discipline, not a mood. It's about choosing to believe in forward momentum despite uncertainty.Understand your brain's negativity bias. We're wired to remember threats — knowing this can help us reframe and resist doomscrolling.Question nostalgia. Looking back with rose-colored glasses can fuel pessimism about the present.Negativity is profitable — be aware of media incentives. Don't let clickbait headlines distort your worldview.Design serendipity. Small, outward-focused actions (helping others, showing up, connecting dots) compound over time.Practice error tolerance. Innovation and growth require being wrong most of the time; progress lives in mistakes.Generosity drives returns. Investing in other people — time, knowledge, introductions — creates long-term opportunity and resilience.Say yes more (strategically). Especially early in your journey, embrace exploration; one connection can transform everything.Start before you're ready. Perfectionism delays progress; ship at 90% and learn in motion.Positive emotions fuel creativity. Simple acts of gratitude, kindness, and curiosity expand your capacity to see solutions and possibilities.On Negativity Bias & Media OutrageAdam Mastroianni & Daniel Gilbert's Nature paper — The illusion of moral declineSteven Pinker's The Better Angels of Our Nature (book summary)Tobias Rose-Stockwell — The Outrage MachineUpworthy headline negativity study (Columbia Journalism Review)On Positive Emotion & OptimismBarbara Fredrickson's “Broaden-and-Build Theory” explainerDalai Lama quote on “intelligent selfishness”Adam Grant's Give and TakeOn Startup Mindset & SerendipityMattan Griffel's Medium essay: “You Have to Be Wrong”Mattan Griffel on Designing Serendipity (Forbes)How to Build Serendipity in Your Career (Harvard Business Review)On Connection & GenerosityChris Schembra's Rolling Stone column archiveIkigai framework explainerPwC research on ROI of well-being programs

Rufus launched Nerve.com in the late '90s, followed by spin-offs that were culturally significant but financially challenging. Those hard lessons shaped his disciplined approach to Babble, the parenting platform he built with his wife in 2007. Babble tapped into the emerging mom-blogging movement, growing to 10M monthly uniques and a $10M revenue run rate, becoming the leading parenting site of its time. Determined to secure a strong outcome, Rufus identified five likely acquirers early and built trust over years, consistently hitting milestones and proving growth. That strategy paid off when Disney acquired Babble for a reported $40M, after Rufus successfully negotiated a 25% bump over their initial offer and minimized reliance on earnouts. He emphasizes selling on momentum, building relationships with the right stakeholders, and being radically honest about challenges. Today, Rufus runs the Next Big Idea Club with Malcolm Gladwell, Adam Grant, Susan Cain, and Daniel Pink, delivering the most important new ideas to a fast-changing world. -- Rufus Griscom is a serial entrepreneur and media innovator who has founded and scaled multiple influential companies at the intersection of culture and technology.

Hey, Heal Squad! In today's throwback, we're diving into one of life's greatest lessons: how to adapt when everything feels uncertain and the road ahead isn't clear. Maria opens up about navigating change, identity shifts, and the unexpected waves that come with loss and growth. She shares the powerful reminder to “be like water”, flowing around life's roadblocks instead of forcing your way through them. PLUS, we get into the importance of building a “challenge network” (thank you Adam Grant!), the honest voices in your life who call you forward instead of just telling you what you want to hear.

Have you ever found yourself halfway through a concert, dinner party, or even a family gathering and thought, “OK, I'm ready to go now,” even though you're having a good time? You're not alone, and it doesn't mean you're antisocial or ungrateful. In this episode, host Gabe Howard sits down with Jodi Wellman, a positive psychology expert and TEDx speaker, to unpack the surprising psychology behind wanting to leave events early.Together, they explore why both introverts and extroverts can feel this way, introducing concepts like “experience efficiency” and “memory optimization.” Learn how our brains process peak moments, why leaving on a high note can actually enhance our memories, and why you don't have to “get your money's worth” by staying until the very end. Key takeaways: Find out why some people feel “full” on fun faster and don't need to stay until the end to enjoy an event. Reframe early exits as a smart way to manage energy, time, and joy—without guilt. Learn practical language for confidently setting boundaries when you're ready to go, without shame. Discover how even the most outgoing people can feel “peopled out.” If you've ever snuck out of a party, left a holiday dinner before dessert, or wondered why you plan your exit before you even arrive — this episode is for you. “And yes, there is a purpose to the dinner and the tasting menu that goes all the way to the end. And yes, of course, we rationally know that. And yet, those of us who are experience minimalists are still OK to say, I got my fill. I got the appetizer and I had part of the entree. And admittedly, not many of us are kicking back our chairs and leaving halfway through dinner. But metaphorically, this works. When we know we've had our fill and we feel truly good that, wow, I got the songs I needed and wanted or look, I did most of the hike and I don't have to get to the top. I'm cool to go back. I feel good about myself. That's the thing. Are you having a good time and do you want to end on a high? That is, to me, sound judgment about living a life worth living.” ~Jodi Wellman, MAPP Our guest, Jodi Wellman, is the founder of Four Thousand Mondays, a speaker, author, and assistant instructor in the Master of Applied Positive Psychology program at the University of Pennsylvania.

In this powerful episode of the "Communication Lies Leaders Believe" series, Tammy tackles a hidden saboteur in every team: employee baggage. Your team members aren't just bringing their skills to the table; they're bringing their past fears, limiting beliefs, and insecurities. Tammy busts the myth that it's a leader's job to fix this. Instead, she provides a clear, three-step framework to name it, frame it, and lead through it. This isn't about being an "accidental therapist"; it's about setting strong boundaries and creating a culture of accountability where insecurity doesn't become the “pink elephant with purple polka dots” in your room. Key Takeaways for Leaders Baggage Isn't Just Luggage: Your team's past experiences and insecurities are a real force in the workplace. It's your job to lead through it, not fix it. The Insecurity Lie: Don't believe the lie that giving more clarity or reassurance will make their insecurity go away. Insecurity is a story they're telling themselves, often rooted in past wounds, not current reality. Separate the Person from the Problem: Learn to disconnect their identity from their performance. A key phrase to use is: "Your value isn't in question here; your behavior in this role is." Set Boundaries for Growth: Your role is to support someone's growth, not to carry it for them. If they're unwilling to work on their limiting beliefs, it's a performance issue, not a leadership failure. In This Episode, You'll Learn How to identify when a team member's behavior is rooted in insecurity, not incompetence. The three-step process to name, frame, and lead through a team member's baggage. Why staying silent on emotional baggage is more costly than any conflict. The difference between helping a team member and being a "fixer." The questions to ask that will help a team member personally investigate their own limiting beliefs. This is just one of many lies we're busting! We're celebrating our 100th episode next week as we continue this series. Be sure to subscribe so you don't miss it!

On a June night several years ago, Sebastian Junger, bestselling author of The Perfect Storm and co-director of the Oscar-nominated documentary Restrepo, lay on an operating table, dying. An undiagnosed aneurysm in his pancreatic artery had ruptured, flooding his abdominal cavity with blood. His odds of survival were between 10 and 20 percent. "I said, 'Doc, you've got to hurry. You're losing me right now. I'm going.'" This near-death experience inspired him to embark on a scientific, philosophical, and profoundly personal exploration of what happens after we die.

In this season of WorkLife, we're pairing each of our regular episodes with a companion interview to do a deeper dive into the topic. This is the deeper dive for our episode on how to say no. Linda Babcock is a professor emerita of economics at Carnegie Mellon and co-author of “The No Club,” a club of people who help each other set boundaries. Linda and Adam share some of their personal struggles and lessons with around no, discuss Linda's research on why women take on more non-promotable tasks at work, and explore novel strategies for us all to guard our time against people who don't respect it.To listen to our previous episode, "How to Say No," click here!For a chance to give your own TED Talk, fill out the Idea Search Application: ted.com/ideasearch.Interested in learning more about upcoming TED events?

In this episode from 2021, organizational psychologist and bestselling author Adam Grant joins Gwyneth Paltrow to explore what it really takes to change your mind—about your work, your worth, and even your identity.
