What if your "glow-up" didn't change who you are, but changed how the world treats you? In this episode, I'm unpacking pretty privilege, the psychology behind it, and why being seen differently can feel more unsettling than empowering. We're talking about perception, bias, and the uncomfortable truth behind why opportunities, attention, and respect suddenly shift. This isn't about glow-ups...it's about what they reveal. Are. You.

Are you feeling stressed, scattered, or mentally drained? Science suggests a surprisingly simple way to feel better: spending time in nature. In this episode of Nature Breaking, we explore the growing body of psychological research showing how time spent outdoors improves focus, mood, and overall mental health. Host Seth Larson is joined by Dr. Dennis Stolle, Executive Lead Psychologist for Applied Psychology at the American Psychological Association (APA), to break down what's actually happening in our brains when we step into outside—and why even small doses of nature can make a real difference. It's an important reminder that when we take care of nature, nature takes care of us. This episode was produced as part of a collaboration between WWF and APA in recognition of Mental Health Awareness Month.

NOTE: Apologies for the poor audio quality on Dr. Daniel's microphone. It wasn't discovered until after recording that the wrong mic was in use! In support of our upcoming Symposium on Spiritual Bypassing: Counseling and Support Perspectives, two noted experts sit down with Dr. Daniel to discuss their experiences growing up in high-demand religious communities and their exposure to this method of negative religious coping. Dr. Clint Heacock is the host of The Dismantling Doctrine Podcast. The show is dedicated to raising awareness of the dangers posed by cults and other high-control religious groups; the agenda of the Christian Right and Dominion theology; and providing resources to those suffering from religious trauma syndrome after leaving religion behind. Janice Selbie was born into a charismatic Christian home, attending Pentecostal, Vineyard, and other Evangelical churches and in her 30sbecame ultraconservative, donning a head-covering, homeschooling their children, and rejecting any vestiges of secular life. After breaking free later in life, she began to study the impact of religion and religious trauma sexuality, gender roles and equality, social justice, and more, and went on to earn a Diploma of Applied Psychology and Counselling. She counsels people who struggle with religious trauma, and runs "divorcing religion" workshops throughout the U.S. and Canada.
We're thrilled to welcome back Dr. E. Kevin Kelloway, Professor of Psychology and Management at Saint Mary's University, to The Safety Guru for a powerful conversation on the critical role of work readiness and the simple yet impactful REDI framework for creating safer workplaces. In this insightful episode, Dr. Kelloway introduces the REDI model, a practical, human-centered approach to assessing work readiness through four key factors: Rested, Emotionally Calm, Distracted, and Impatient/In a hurry. When people are not fully ready for the task at hand, the risk of errors and incidents can rise, especially in high-risk environments. Dr. Kelloway explains how each element of the model influences safety outcomes and decision-making. Through real-world examples, he shares how leaders and teams can apply this framework in practice to spark meaningful conversations before risk is introduced. Tune in to explore how organizations can use this straightforward framework to strengthen safety culture, increase awareness, and create safer workplaces by ensuring every team member is truly REDI for the work ahead. About the Guest: Dr. E. Kevin Kelloway is the University Research Professor and Professor of Psychology and Management at Saint Mary's University, Halifax, Nova Scotia. A prolific researcher, he has authored over 200 articles and chapters and has authored/edited 15 books to date. His research focuses on occupational health psychology and, in particular, how leaders affect health and safety within organizations. Kevin has been elected a Fellow of the Association for Psychological Science, the Canadian Psychological Association, the International Association for Applied Psychology, and the Society for Industrial/Organizational Psychology. In 2016, he served as President of the Canadian Psychological Association. Kevin works with both private and public sector clients on issues related to leadership, safety, and HR management, and is a popular speaker at conferences and corporate events.

I am so excited to share this conversation with my wonderful colleague and friend, Dr. Catherine Kleshinski from Indiana University. We've all been there on a random Monday morning when someone asks, "How was your weekend?" and we're dying to share a picture of our new puppy or the chaos of a first birthday party. I used to think these me-search moments were just simple trust builders—and they are! Catherine's latest research in the Journal of Applied Psychology reveals that there is a lot of nuance behind that water cooler talk. It turns out that while sharing the non-work vibes makes us all seem warmer, the way it impacts our reputation actually depends on where we sit in the hierarchy. So, how can we build authentic connections without accidentally triggering the workplace gossip mill? The Warmth Benefit vs. The Distraction Penalty: Everyone who shares positive personal news is perceived as warmer and more caring, but junior or lower-status employees may simultaneously be viewed as less focused on their professional responsibilities. "Everyone gets the warmth benefit, but the work ethic connotation depends on power dynamics." The Gossip Ripple Effect: Reputation isn't just a static feeling; it drives how people talk about you when you aren't in the room, leading to either flattering or unflattering workplace gossip. "If you have this reputation for being a relationship builder, people will engage in positive gossip about you, but if you are somebody with a reputation for being distracted, they'll gossip negatively about you." The Invisible Line of Disclosure: There is a delicate balance between sharing enough to build trust and oversharing details like health issues or intense personal data that can make others uncomfortable. Creating Safe Spaces for Connection: Leaders should focus on creating icebreakers that allow for choose-your-own-adventure levels of vulnerability so that no one feels pressured to share more than they are comfortable with. Actionable Takeaway Audit your icebreakers. If you are a manager, be mindful that vulnerable sharing can unintentionally disadvantage your junior team members. Instead of asking personal questions, try a reciprocity ring where teammates request help with a specific task, or use "Tell Me Something Good" to allow people the choice between sharing a professional win or a personal one.

In this episode, we discuss the problem of miscitation. How often are citations to the scientific literature outright misleading? Do we really need to spell out that people are supposed to read what they cite? What can we learn from other fields? Or should we just live with the fact that a decent percentage of citations in the literature are wrong? Enjoy.

Beth Campbell is an award-winning professor of management and leadership development at the University of Minnesota. Her main research projects focus on the consequences high performers spark for themselves and how high performers affect their peers and their teams. She has published in leading academic journals, including the Academy of Management Journal and the Journal of Applied Psychology, while also serving as Chief Operations Officer of the OB Division of the Academy of Management. She also serves on the editorial boards of the Academy of Management Journal, the Journal of Applied Psychology, and as Associate Editor at Personnel Psychology. Beth holds a Ph.D. in management from the University of Maryland and a B.A. in organizational psychology from the University of Michigan. In this episode we discuss the following: Hiring a star performer seems like an easy win, but Beth's research shows that hiring stars can trigger status conflicts and envy. Research suggests that "star power" hits diminishing returns once a team is composed of more than 20% high performers, as too many "hot shots" can lead to ego clashes rather than collaboration. To avoid these pitfalls, leaders can look for stars who possess humility and high emotional intelligence, as they're more likely to share credit and lift those around them. Success isn't just about chasing the best talent, but being thoughtful about the character traits of stars and the system they'll be working in.
If you ask a parent, they are likely to deny they have a favorite child. But ask a kid, and they will tell you that is not true. And researchers agree. They found that roughly two-thirds of parents have a favorite child, and that golden child retained their status for decades. While being the favorite has some obvious upsides, being the apple of your parent's eye has its pitfalls, and the negative effects of being a non -favored child can last a lifetime. Were you a favorite child? Do you have a favorite child? Guests: Sahaj Kaur Kohli, therapist and founder, Brown Girl Therapy; writer, author of the book "But What Will People Say?

A nurse in Pennsylvania had been on her feet for twelve hours. She was supposed to go home, but the unit was short-staffed, so she stayed. During that overtime, a patient was diagnosed with cancer and needed two chemotherapy doses. She administered the first, placed the second in a drawer, and headed home. She forgot about the second dose. It wasn't discovered until the next day. The patient was fine; they got the treatment in time. But think about what happened. This wasn't a careless nurse. This was a dedicated professional who stayed late to help her team. Her skills didn't fail. Her knowledge didn't fail. Her energy failed, and her judgment went with it. That's the trap. We assume our thinking stays constant, that the brain in hour fourteen is the same brain that showed up in hour one. It's not. Last episode, we tackled deciding under uncertainty. But fatigue does something different. Uncertainty makes you hesitate. Fatigue makes you stop caring. Why Your Brain Makes Worse Decisions by Evening You've probably heard the popular saying: "Making too many decisions wears you out, so by evening your judgment is shot." That idea dominated psychology for twenty years. Researchers believed decision-making drained from a limited mental reserve, like a battery running down. Then, independent labs tried to reproduce those results at scale, and the effect vanished. One study, 23 labs, over 2,000 people, found nothing. A second, 36 labs, 3,500 people, same result. The experience is real, though. People do make worse decisions after a long day of mental effort. What was wrong was the explanation. Your brain doesn't drain like a battery. After sustained effort, it shifts priorities. It starts favoring speed and ease over accuracy. Not because it can't think carefully, but because it decides careful thinking isn't worth the effort. Decision fatigue isn't your brain shutting down. It's your brain quietly lowering its standards without telling you. Decision Fatigue in the Real World That science isn't abstract. It plays out every day. Researchers at Brigham and Women's Hospital tracked over 21,000 patient visits. Doctors prescribed unnecessary antibiotics more frequently as the day went on. Not because afternoon patients were sicker. Because saying "here's a prescription" is easier than explaining why you don't need one. Five percent more patients received antibiotics they didn't need, purely because of timing. The same pattern shows up everywhere. Surgeons make more conservative calls later in the day. Hand hygiene compliance drops across a twelve-hour shift. Financial analysts grow less accurate with each additional stock prediction they make in a single day. The drift always goes in the same direction: toward whatever requires the least effort. That drift explains something we've been exploring across this series. When you're exhausted, someone else's conclusion isn't just tempting, it's a relief. The algorithm's recommendation saves you from having to evaluate. The expert's opinion saves you from forming your own. That's mindjacking, finding the open door. Fatigue doesn't just degrade your thinking. It makes you grateful to hand it over. Your Four Warning Signals Knowing the science is useful. But what matters more is catching fatigue in yourself before it costs you. Here are four signals that your judgment is compromised. Signal 1: The Default Drift. Someone proposes a plan that sounds... fine. Not great, not terrible. Two hours ago, you'd have pushed back, asked harder questions. Now you just nod. You're not agreeing because you're convinced. You're agreeing because disagreeing takes energy you no longer have. Signal 2: The Irritability Spike. A colleague asks a reasonable question, and it feels like an interruption. When your emotional response is out of proportion to the situation, it's not the situation. Your reserves are low. Signal 3: The Shortcut Reflex. A decision that should take twenty minutes takes thirty seconds. You skip the analysis, go with your gut. There's a version of this that sounds like confidence. "I trust my instincts." But late in the day, that phrase is often code for "I'm too tired to think this through." Signal 4: The Surrender. You stop forming conclusions and start borrowing them. Someone says, "I think we should go with Option B" and you feel a wave of relief. Not because Option B is right, but because you no longer have to figure it out. That relief is the signal. When outsourcing, your judgment feels like a gift instead of a loss, you're running on empty. If two or more of these show up at the same time, stop. Your judgment isn't reliable right now. Don't trust it with anything that matters. Four Moves to Protect Your Judgment Those signals tell you something's wrong. Here's what to do about it. Move 1: Postpone it. Move the decision to a high-energy window. For most people, that's morning. Think of those hours like premium real estate. Stop filling them with trivial meetings. Move 2: Shrink it. Instead of "Should we pursue this entire strategy?" ask "What's the one thing I need to decide tonight?" Tired minds handle focused questions better than open-ended ones. Move 3: Add a checkpoint. Make the call, but build in a mandatory review: "Here's my decision. We revisit on Thursday morning." Not indecisiveness. A safety net. Move 4: Pre-commit. Before you're ever exhausted, set rules for your future tired self. "I don't approve expenditures over $10,000 after 6 PM." "I don't respond to emotionally charged emails the same day." "I don't make personnel decisions on Fridays." This is the most powerful move because you're making the decision when you're strong so you don't have to make it when you're weak. Pre-commitment also means structuring the order of your decisions. Researchers studying car buyers found that customers who faced the most complex choices first were significantly more likely to accept defaults on everything that followed. The decisions wore them down. The fix was simple: put simple choices first. Front-load your high-stakes choices the same way. Design your day so that by the time your energy fades, the remaining decisions matter least. Recovery as a Decision-Making Strategy Everything I've just described helps you manage fatigue in the moment. But there's a deeper question: what are you doing to actually replenish? We treat fatigue like it's inevitable. It's not. It's a sign you're spending more than you're recovering. The fix isn't another productivity hack. It's genuine rest. Real time away. Disconnected. Off. I learned this the hard way. Early in my career, I was a workaholic, just like my father. It took years to see the connection between rest and judgment. When I became a CEO, I made recovery a priority. We offer unlimited PTO, but offering it isn't enough. I take it visibly, because if the person at the top doesn't step away, nobody believes they're allowed to. A team that never replenishes is permanently operating in a degraded state. That's slow-motion failure. The triage framework buys you time. Recovery is what actually refills the tank. Your Pre-Commitment Challenge Every framework in this series assumes you'll use it when it counts. But mental fatigue is the silent killer of good frameworks. You can know everything about logical reasoning and second-order effects, and still make a terrible call at 10 PM because your mind decided careful thinking wasn't worth the effort. That's why this isn't just another episode. This is the one that determines whether everything else actually works in your real life. So, before this episode ends, pick one pre-commitment. One rule your strong self creates for your tired self. "I don't approve budgets after 7 PM." "I don't reply to conflict emails the same day." Whatever yours is, write it where you'll see it when you're exhausted. Then tell one person. Not for accountability theater. Because saying it out loud makes it real in a way that thinking it never does. Remember that nurse? She had the knowledge, skills, and dedication to stay late for her team. What she lacked was a system to protect her judgment when her energy failed. Your worst decisions don't happen because you're not smart enough. They happen because you're too tired to use the intelligence you already have. That nurse had all night to realize what she'd missed. But what if she hadn't? What if someone had needed that decision in the next five minutes? That's a different kind of danger. Not fatigue alone, but fatigue with a ticking clock. "We need an answer by the end of the day." "This offer expires at midnight." "The board meets tomorrow." Sometimes those deadlines are real. Sometimes they're manufactured to make you decide before you can think. How do you tell the difference? That's next time. Subscribe so you don't miss it. Before You Go If you haven't written down your pre-commitment yet, do it now. Sticky note, phone, back of your hand — I don't care where. Then tell someone. If mindjacking is a new concept for you, I've got a full episode that breaks down how to spot when your thinking has been hijacked, whether by outside forces or by yourself. Link's below. For those who want to support the work and the team behind these episodes, you can become a paid subscriber on Substack. One question for the comments: What's your pre-commitment? Drop it below. Make it public. Make it real. The best decision you make today might be the one you don't let your exhausted self make tonight.

Learn more about Michael Wenderoth, Executive Coach: www.changwenderoth.com“If you want the social benefits of being authentic, how you feel inside may have very little to do with it.” At work, we like to believe we're evaluated on substance. In reality, we're constantly being judged on how we perform— how authentic we seem, how prepared we appear, and how natural we look like in our role. In this episode of 97% Effective, host Michael Wenderoth speaks with Alexa Samaniego, Presentation Coach and Doctoral Researcher at Stanford University, about how we judge performances and performers — and why those judgments matter far more than most people realize. Drawing from behavioral research, one-on-one presentation coaching, and her background in theater and the performing arts, Alexa challenges some of the most comforting things we believe (“just be yourself,” “don't over-rehearse,” “there's universal best practices for presenting”) and replaces them with a more honest view of how credibility, competence, and connection are actually earned. This is not an episode about becoming fake. But it will get you thinking differently about how you show up at work if you want to better influence outcomes. You'll leave this episode with a much more realistic understanding of how you're really judged — and how to work with that reality, rather than against it.SHOW NOTESAlexa's path from theater and the creative arts to doctoral research and presentation coachingHow her background in performance shapes the research questions she studiesWhat organizational behavior research looks like in practice: an overview of the PhD arcWhy most people under-rehearse presentations — despite clear benefits of repetitionWhy fear of “sounding fake” leads people to underperformAlexa's two distinct definitions of authenticity: authentic to self vs. authentic to roleWhy being perceived as authentic matters more than feeling authenticSpontaneity and consistency as two key drivers of being seen as authenticHow researchers measure authenticity and test perceptions in lab and field settingsThe uncomfortable truth: social benefits depend on how you come across, not how you feelWhy we are always playing roles at work — and why separating intentions from behaviors matters“It only feels inauthentic because it's not habitual yet”Insights from actors on how to step into a role without losing yourselfThe “outside-in” effect: how dress, voice, and physical behavior shape perceptionTradeoffs between authenticity, polish, and competence at workAlexa's third research stream: the double-edged sword of being (and looking) preparedWhen preparation signals competence — and when it backfires as “trying too hard”Why “everything depends”: how Alexa's coaching changed after doing her researchHow universal presentation advice can fail across gender, culture, and contextDrawing from the outside world: how Alexa's theater background differentiates her research lensHorror films, storytelling, and what they reveal about authenticity and self-expressionAlexa's hard truth: research is powerful, but techniques must be practiced before being used in high-stakes settings BIO AND LINKSAlexa Samaniego is a Presentation Coach and a doctoral researcher in Organizational Behavior (Micro) at the Stanford Graduate School of Business. Her research is inspired by her background in theatre and the performing arts, and examines how speakers and audiences judge others. Her research informs her work as a presentation coach in the Stanford Oral Communication Program and with TEDxStanford.

Mike Baer is an award-winning business professor at Arizona State University, where he researches trust, justice, and impression management. Mike has published his research in top academic journals, including the Academy of Management Journal, Journal of Applied Psychology, and Personnel Psychology, and Mike is currently the Editor-in-Chief at one of the field's top journals—Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes. Mike's research has been covered by media outlets such as Harvard Business Review, Financial Times, PBS, NPR, Business Insider, Men's Health, and New York Magazine among others. Prior to joining academia, Mike worked in the construction industry, at Hewlett Packard's Executive Leadership Development group, and in publishing and online education. He earned his undergraduate and graduate degrees from BYU, and his PHD from the University of Georgia. In this episode we discuss the following: Trust is both a gift and a burden. When we trust others, we can increase their pride and opportunities but can also overload them with responsibilities and pressure. Leaders routinely overload their most trusted people without taking anything off their plates, while under-investing in newer employees who could grow with smaller tasks. Trust shapes how we interpret behavior: trusted employees get the benefit of the doubt; less-trusted ones receive harsh judgments for the same mistakes, which can make early impressions disproportionately powerful. When people are forming those early impressions and deciding whether to trust us, they are thinking about three things: Are we competent? Do we care about them? Do we have good values? So if we do our job well and help other people without being asked, we will tend to make a good impression. About 25% of employees don't actually want more trust—they want stability, not responsibility.

Welcome to the Social-Engineer Podcast: The Doctor Is In Series – where we will discuss understandings and developments in the field of psychology. In today's episode, Chris and Dr. Abbie discuss the complexities of ambition, emphasizing its connection to identity and intrinsic motivation. They explore how ambition can be healthy or obsessive, influenced by personality traits and life experiences. Their conversation warns against destructive ambition, which can harm relationships and ethical standards, and stresses the importance of regularly redefining success to maintain a healthy balance.

Many people liken recalling memories to accessing mental filing cabinets, but our memories are actually more disjointed. Memory science defines how memory works as a dynamic form of complex information processing, which relies on active reconstruction rather than simple retrieval. This reality means human recall is intrinsically malleable, making memories susceptible to suggestion, challenging its role in defining personal identity, and underscoring the necessity of protecting against the science of misinformation. To discover ways to use memories to cultivate a happy life, Harvesting Happiness Podcast Host Lisa Cypers Kamen speaks with Dr. Gillian Murphy, leader of the Everyday Cognition Lab at the School of Applied Psychology at University College Cork. Gillian explains how memory works, the science of information processing, recall, and the risks and benefits associated with trauma therapy. Her book, Memory Lane: The Perfectly Imperfect Ways We Remember, describes the malleability and vulnerability of human memory.

A new study by University College Cork is looking to identify and explore the extent to which women are facing delays to have chronic health conditions diagnosed. Joining Ciara to discuss this is Jenny Cooney-Quane, Research Associate in School of Applied Psychology at UCC and co-author of the study.
In the last episode we talked about Maria Montessori, her becoming the first female doctor in Italy and her impact on alternative learning methods. Today I'm talking about Lillian Gilbreth who was the first female to get her psychological doctorate in industrial organizational psychology. Lillian is the original “Cheaper By the Dozen” mom who exemplified what it meant to be a successful working mother. Lillian Gilbreth Lillian married Frank, in Rhode Island, in 1904. While growing their family, Lillian and Frank started a company together called Gilbreth Incorporated. She studied how to make the workplace support their workers. She was able to publish many papers about her findings but they were all under Frank's name due to “the times” and women's rights. And I'm sure we don't have some of her work. She was the first person to link scientific management with psychology after earning her PhD in Applied Psychology. There is a large gap of information and I hope to change that with the research I want to do. Unfortunately Frank passes away when she's 46. Lillian's Ideas After studying how we use our homes, Lillian came up with a kitchen design. Remember this was back when food wasn't so “grab and go” and a lot of people made things from scratch. There was an assigned space for your ingredients like flour and sugar. Lillian came up with the triangle between your refrigerator, stove, and kitchen sink. Lillian discovered the proper counter height, the pedal trash can, and shelves & egg/butter storage in the door of the refrigerator. There is a whole kitchen that Lillian designed and most of it didn't get implemented into homes. Why? It baffles me! Maybe that's my next move? I think it's so critical for me to get my PhD so that I can publish information that will live well beyond my life span, for future generations. Greg often wants to bring up our resale value on our home when I come to him with one of my ideas of how we could modify our home to meet our current phase of life. In all reality I don't see us ever moving but also I want to enjoy my house not just preserve it for resale. I think kids rooms should be larger, there should be command central for household managers like I saw in Greenfield Village, and much bigger laundry rooms. We buy these homes before we have accumulated all the things including kids and all of their things. We need to make homes more functional for less modification and more productivity! If money were no object right now, what would you change about your house? 40's? Just Getting Started Lillian was just 46 when her husband passed away. And she was just getting started. Time and time again, I learn about people being 45 plus when they made their contribution to society. And throughout history I have also seen these people live longer lives. Women's spouses pass, they continue to raise children and run the household AND live in their passion. There is no science to back it up…yet. But I believe because these people were doing what they were uniquely created to do, they lived longer.

At the heart of every organization lies a web of relationships: individual performance is shaped by not only a person's inherent characteristics, but also by their interactions with others within teams, and their teams' interactions with other teams across the system.Within such a complex structure, how can we know how much of ‘deviant behavior' can be explained by poor leadership? What kinds of inter-team conflict—between whom—improve performance, and which kinds undermine it? How do the relational dynamics of team performance create unavoidable challenges during rapid organisational scaling? How can we know if or when the potential benefits of teams will outweigh the ‘team tax'? My guest for this episode is Professor Brad Harris. Brad has dedicated his career to examining these types of questions by examining how social architecture of work shapes behaviour and outcomes.Brad is the Associate Dean of MBA Programs, a Vice Dean for the TRIUM EMBA, and a Professor of Management and Human Resources at HEC Paris. Brad has received multiple teaching awards and was named a top “40 under 40 Business School Professor” by Poets and Quants. He has co-authored two books, Scaling for Success: People Priorities for High-Growth Organizations, and 3D Team Leadership: A New Approach for Complex Teams, and published research papers in leading journals including the Academy of Management Journal, Journal of Applied Psychology, Personnel Psychology, and Journal of Management. Brad's work has been cited in leading popular press outlets, including the Wall Street Journal, New York Times, Harvard Business Review, NBC's The Today Show, Inc.com, and Fast Company.Brad has an amazing ability to translate academic findings into useful information for the leading teams and organisations. Brad brings humour, clarity, and passion to the topic of leadership and team performance—qualities that shine throughout our discussion. Enjoy the conversation!CitationsGrann, D. (2023).

In 2011, Coca-Cola introduced a white version of their Coca-Cola can. The drink inside was identical to original Coca-Cola, but customers drinking from this white can hated the taste. The white can made buyers think the Cola tasted worse. To explain why, I need to delve into the science of sensehacking. With Professor Adrian North, I'll explain why tennis players grunt loudly, why cars smell different when new, how a tablecloth alters our taste, and that music changes what you buy. --- Join the Nudge Vaults waiting list: https://www.nudgepodcast.com/vaults Join the Nudge Unit waiting list: https://maven.com/nudge-unit/course-cohort Sign up for my newsletter: https://www.nudgepodcast.com/mailing-list Connect on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/phill-agnew-22213187/ Watch Nudge on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@nudgepodcast/ --- Today's sources Bschaden, A., Dörsam, A., Cvetko, K., & Stroebele-Benschop, N.

Happy Monday! Anna had this great idea for this summer on the podcast; the idea was to address questions from the Organize 365® community. I asked Anna if she thought we'd get any responses? We did. We got 70 questions in the first 24 hours. So, today we're getting personal answering questions about my family and how I navigate incorporating my business. Family Involvment The question was asked about what I do when my family members don't want to participate in organization. I reiterated many times in this episode that I think my view point now is because of my lived experience up to age 53, that I am now. As women, our roles change a lot depending on the phase of life our family is at. I am out of active parenting years, made it through menopause, and just feel less emotional more matter of fact. In the brain, schemas are organized patterns of knowledge, or mental frameworks, used to interpret and understand the world. It's like a repeated skill that you have mastered. So if you always make the kids lunches, organize the schedule for the family, and get the groceries, you likely have schemas for those tasks. But then you ask your husband (or kids) to step in and he doesn't do it as well as you. He doesn't have the years of schemas built up that you do. You're asking the rookie to do, without training, what the World Series player normally does. What you focus on is what grows. Focus on what your family does right. I mentioned on a side note that being an entrepreneur has afforded me luxuries that Greg doesn't have and that makes him a little jealous. You never know the root of the negativity you get from your family. But I know my boundaries and goals and what it will take to accomplish them. And stop doing so much. Allow your family to assume some tasks like those teenage kids. Let them form schemas. OR I just focus on my areas and what I can do. I have accepted that I am only in control of myself. What I contribute to my organizational success There are 4 things that I can see I incorporated into my systems. Mind you first they were just systems for myself and my clients. From the Franklin Covey Planners I gained the idea of beginning with the end in mind. I liked how the Slob Sisters, who wrote Side Tracked Home Executive, had you write everything down on note cards and then there was a rotation system to keep you on track. Fly Lady had the control journal that I loved. But at the end of the day it was too many tasks eating up my day. I then decided what was the minimum I could get away with doing each day based on what could wait. And lastly, Getting Things Done by David Allen. It was good for executives but I needed something for parenting and a household manager. And for my PhDers out there, I explained all about my organization of papers for my school work and now the dissertation. With all of the things I do, naturally someone asked about me taking down time and getting sick. I have always been a naturally energetic person. I love to be busy with my hands. Down time for me is doing a puzzle while watching tv with Greg. I can't even relax at the beach! And as far as getting sick. Most times, you won't know I‘m sick till I'm back in the saddle. I deny the possibility as long as I can. But I always have peace of mind if I do get sick because I try to be a week or two ahead, in work, to prevent the cascade of everyone else completing their work. Like I've said before “I'm where work comes from.” Always in that ready state of preparedness. And you get to choose how you respond to situations. Your attitude is a choice.

Everyone knows that $19.99 is really $20. And we know that gas sold at $3.49 and 9/10 per gallon is really $3.50. We get it. So why do retailers and gas stations still price things this way? The answer is more interesting than you might think so we begin this episode by explaining what's going on.https://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2015/01/the-psychological-difference-between-1200-and-1167/384993/ Your memory isn't as good as you like to think. You forget a lot of things and your memory distorts a lot of other things so that what you remember to be true – isn't. Given how sophisticated the human brain is, why are our memories so prone to error? That's a fascinating question I explore with Gillian Murphy, an associate professor in the School of Applied Psychology at University College Cork and coauthor of the book Memory Lane: The Perfectly Imperfect Ways We Remember (https://amzn.to/41J9nu1).

In this special episode, Scott is joined by two legendary figures in social psychology: Dr. Elliot Aronson and his son, Dr. Joshua Aronson. At 93, Elliot Aronson remains a towering influence in psychology, known for pioneering the Jigsaw Classroom—a groundbreaking cooperative learning technique that reduces interethnic hostility and enhances learning. He is the only person in American Psychological Association history to receive all three of its major awards for research, teaching, and writing, including the prestigious William James Award for Lifetime Achievement. His son, Dr. Joshua Aronson, is a distinguished social psychologist and Associate Professor of Applied Psychology at NYU. His pioneering research on stereotype threat has reshaped our understanding of learning and performance under stress. As the director of the Mindful Education Lab, he leads efforts to improve psychological resilience and learning environments. Together, Elliot and Joshua co-authored The Social Animal, a seminal textbook in psychology. In this conversation, Scott, Elliot and Joshua explore this groundbreaking work, their personal journeys, and the lasting impact of their research on education, social behavior, and human psychology.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
