Summary Today's conversation is with the Dr of Happiness, Dr Andy Cope. Andy is a wellbeing expert, best-selling author and in his words a recovering academic. He specialises in positive psychology and the science of human flourishing. The reward for grinding out his Loughborough PhD is that he gets to call himself a Dr of Happiness. If you put the cheesy title to one side, Andy believes there has never been a more important time to focus on mental health and wellbeing. He has been described as a ‘wellbeing revolutionary' and his mission is to change the narrative and re-focus psychology away from what's wrong with people to what's right. His messages act as a gentle nudge towards people taking charge of their own mental health. Andy's books are frequently on the best-sellers list. ‘The Art of Being Brilliant', ‘Shine', and ‘Zest' have all topped the personal development charts. ‘The Little Book of Emotional Intelligence' and Leadership: Multiplier Effect' are riding high in the business charts and ‘Happiness Route Map' was nominated as The Independent's best self-help book of the year. Andy also moonlights as a children's author. His ‘Spy Dog' series has sold in excess of a million copies worldwide. In this conversation Andy and I discusses the importance of focusing on wellbeing and happiness, especially during retirement. He explains that traditional psychology has primarily focused on fixing mental health issues rather than promoting wellness. Andy emphasises the need to shift the focus to happiness and flourishing, and shares insights from positive psychology. He highlights the significance of living in the present moment and finding contentment in simple experiences and positive relationships. Andy also challenges the notion of retirement as a destination for happiness and encourages individuals to prioritize their wellbeing throughout their lives. Andy emphasises the need to focus on mental wealth and living one's best life. Andy shares his journey of accidentally stumbling upon the science of living a happier life and the intentional strategies that happy people employ. They also discuss the power of reframing internal and learned beliefs and the challenge of unlearning bad habits. He highlights the importance of saying yes to growth and new experiences, as well as saying no to things that don't bring joy. They also touch on the significance of quality relationships, being present, and the negative impact of social media on happiness. Takeaways Traditional psychology has primarily focused on fixing mental health issues rather than promoting wellness. Positive psychology emphasizes the importance of happiness and flourishing. Finding contentment in simple experiences and positive relationships is key to living a fulfilling life. Retirement should not be seen as the sole destination for happiness; it is important to prioritize wellbeing throughout life. Wellbeing and happiness should be prioritized in retirement, as they contribute to a fulfilling life. Positive psychology can help reframe internal and learned beliefs, leading to a happier mindset. Unlearning bad habits and letting go of negative thoughts and behaviors is essential for personal growth and happiness. Saying yes to growth and new experiences, and saying no to things that don't bring joy, can enhance happiness in retirement. Quality relationships and being present in the moment are key determinants of happiness. The negative impact of social media on happiness should be recognized, and time spent on it should be reduced. Sound Bites "There are people out there with a smile on their face and a spring in their step." "Positive psychology is about equipping people with the knowledge and skills to take care of their own mental health and wellbeing." "The happiest moments in life are often simple experiences with loved ones." "They don't talk about wellbeing in a way that they should absolutely talk about wellbeing." "Living your best life and being your best self wasn't a thing." "The biggest barrier to me feeling amazing was actually me."

Welcome to episode 18. Dr Andy is back this week to talk about flying frogs. Andy is reading one of the pages from the new edition of the Art of Being Brilliant book, the parable of Clarence and Felix. It's a very short story about Clarence, who is trying to get Felix (a frog) to learn to fly... give it a listen, we're certain you'll be able to relate to it!

Welcome to episode 14. We're back with Darrell Woodman, who is celebrating 13 happy years working with The Art of Brilliance. To celebrate, Daz is reflecting on what his life was like before he read the Art of Being Brilliant book (new edition is out now by the way!) and shares with you how a strategy called "Three Good Things" can help you get out of a daily rut.

#046 - How we feel has a direct impact on our creativity and confidence. However, we don't openly talk about our mental health at work. In this episode, I speak to my friend Rob Armes who's a design leader and founder of the UX consultancy, Circular UX. Rob opens up on his mental health struggles, including periods of psychosis and suicidal thoughts. And even after recovering and returning back to work, he experienced severe imposter syndrome. Rob shares how he got back on his feet and took back control of his life and career, which includes starting his own consultancy. Rob also shares his advice on freelancing and growing beyond your comfort zone in your career.ShownotesConnect with Rob Armeshttps://robarmes.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/robarmes/Being Brilliant by Andy CopeNielsen Norman GroupHow you can get into UX contracting and freelancing | by Rob Armes (He/Him) | Nov, 2023 | BootcampMental health support linksOverview - Psychosis - NHSContact Us | SamaritansContact us | MindShow creditsIllustrations by Isa Vicentehttps://www.instagram.com/isadezgz/Music by Brad Porterhttps://prtr.co/Follow Design Feeling on social!

Lucinda talks to Helen Beedham, a specialist in creating work cultures where individuals and teams can flourish and deliver successfully, about time management, and how a new approach may be needed as we move into a new world. KEY TAKEAWAYS Antiquated versions of timekeeping and ensuring patterns are adhered to in terms of time, have never truly produced any kind of data or feedback about productivity itself. We tend to think about time management in relation to the individual. What we don't think about is the interconnectedness between people's time habits and choices. We don't look at the big picture between teams and organisations. Our attention is often hijacked by the immense need to fulfil tasks as soon as they appear so as to appear more productive. This can mean that new tasks are prioritised over existing responsibilities so as to positively skew our efficiency. We must stop thinking of success as a result of time spent on a task, and instead look at the outcomes of tasks as a way of gauging effectiveness. BEST MOMENTS 'When you've accounted for your time in 6 minute increments for the past fifteen years, it's a hard habit to break!' 'The way we think about time and manage time, systemically, is quite broken' 'We have a whole load of social norms around time that affect our assumptions, beliefs and behaviours' 'There's a real battle between what's urgent and what's important' ABOUT THE GUEST Helen Beedham writes, speaks and advises on how to create more inclusive, productive workplaces where everyone can flourish. For the past 25 years, as management consultant then chair of a City-wide professional network. She has led change programmes for FTSE 100 businesses and regularly brought together Heads of HR, Diversity, Inclusion and Wellbeing to exchange market-leading practices. Helen is regularly cited in business and HR publications and was commissioned by the Executive Director of London Business School's Leadership Institute to assist them with selected research studies. Her business book is called 'The Future of Time: How ‘re-working' time'. This can help you boost productivity, diversity and wellbeing'. She is host of 'The Business of Being Brilliant' podcast where she explores the human side of work with business and HR leaders, academics and workplace experts. www.helenbeedham.com www.thefutureoftime.co.uk Helen's Socials: Linked In | Twitter | Instagram | YouTube   VALUABLE RESOURCES The HR Uprising Podcast | Apple | Spotify | Stitcher   The HR Uprising LinkedIn Group How to Prioritise Self-Care (The HR Uprising) How To Be A Change Superhero - by Lucinda Carney HR Uprising Mastermind - https://hruprising.com/mastermind/   www.changesuperhero.com www.hruprising.com         Helen Beedham - https://www.helenbeedham.com ABOUT THE HOST Lucinda Carney is a Business Psychologist with 15 years in Senior Corporate L&D roles and a further 10 as CEO of Actus Software where she worked closely with HR colleagues helping them to solve the same challenges across a huge range of industries.

Coming soon! In ‘The Business of Being Brilliant' which launches in January 2022, I'll be exploring the human side of work. I'll be talking to business leaders, academics, authors, workplace experts and other professionals about when they've worked at their best and when they've floundered. We'll be finding out how to change organisations for the better so that everyone can flourish. I'm your host, Helen Beedham, organisational expert, speaker and author of the forthcoming business book The Future of Time which you can pre-order now. In this first series, my guests and I will be delving into the question of how we manage our time at work, from coping with time pressure to reclaiming time for the things that really matter. Join us in January for a dose of honesty and positivity to help you and your organisation succeed.

Today on the #mensexpleasure podcast, I chat with Bek Antonucci. Bek is an Emotional Wellbeing and Personal Freedom Coach. She supports women to break through ineffective self worth and body image stories, activate their unique voice and live their most radically fulfilled and expressed lives. Through a range of different holistic and intuitive modalities including trauma therapy, somatic response tactics, inner child connection, wounded ego healing and more, Bek supports women to learn to love their vulnerabilities. To take radical self ownership of the thing that they once thought made them unworthy in societies eyes and transform their lives from the inside out. Together we go on a journey of deep inner transformation and come to a place of true self acceptance. Bek is a free thinker, embodied female thought leader, stigma fighter, public speaker, workshop mentor, founder of the online group programs “Being Brilliant” & “True Transformation,” and Perth based Naked Awakening facilitator. We talk about her own personal journey with cheating, herpes, sexual healing and self-love as well as how to navigate the world - both online and IRL - as a confident and sexually empowered woman. Key points: - Bek shares about her personal story - Living with herpes - The stigma of STIs - Normalizing conversations about sexual health - Talking about sex online - Intention vs impact - Sister wounds and brother wounds - “What do men need to know?” - Attention seeking - Advice for being a sexually embodied person on the internet Relevant Links: Bek's Isntagram - @bekantonucci Bek's Facebook - @bek.antonucci

The Two-Percenters: How to Embody Positivity with Andy Cope If you were to write down what you feel at this very moment, you would probably be somewhere in the middle — not depressed but not exactly happy either. For most of us, we are in this middle ground. Knowing someone genuinely happy is entirely unheard of, especially at this time when the world is at its worst. But how can we embody positivity and keep the fire burning in our hearts amid all these? In this episode, Andy Cope relays practical tips on how to have a more positive outlook. He talks about who the two-percenters are and what we can learn from them. Andy also shares his proudest moments and favourite books, which you may also find valuable. If you want to discover different ways of thinking about personal development, this episode is for you. Here are three reasons why you should listen to the full episode: What is the difference between  happiness and positivity? Find out Andy's top tips on how to improve the chances of having more good days.  Discover Andy's secrets to success.  Resources Leading in the New Normal webinar  Visit Angela's website to learn more about her coaching and MeTreat experience!  Shine: Rediscovering Your Energy, Happiness, and Purpose by Andy Cope The Art of Being Brilliant by Andy Cope The Little Book of Being Brilliant  by Andy Cope  A Girl's Guide to Being Fearless: How to Find Your Brave by Andy Cope Diary of a Brilliant Kid by Andy Cope Get a copy of Andy's favourite books: Naked Leader by David Taylor, Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom, and Stillness is the Key by Ryan Holiday Episode Highlights [2:27] The New Normal The ‘new normal' has been around for a while due to the pandemic.  The bad news is nobody knows what it is or how it is going to end. But not knowing gives us a chance to shape our own new normal on a personal level.  Making it up as you go along is the only viable strategy at the moment. [5:16] Leadership and Flourishing Your job as a leader is to be inspired. When you are flourishing, it creates a ripple effect on the people around you.  We know what we need to do to feel great, but we are not doing it. Often, we are busy doing the wrong things.  Psychologists have studied various illnesses and abnormal behaviour but never happy people.  Andy wanted to study happy people: who they are, what they do that makes them feel amazing, and what we can learn from them.  Personal remembering is trying to remind people how to be their best self because most tend to forget. [9:43] Who are the Two-Percenters? For Andy's PhD thesis, he gave out diaries in the workplace and asked people to record their feelings during the working week. He then plotted people on a graph of well being or happiness.  The mood hoovers are those who are not sad nor depressed but stuck in being negative about everything. The two-percenters are near the top of the graph of wellbeing; they are anomalies and reported being genuinely happy.  That 2% manifests on the outside but crucially starts on the inside. It has to do with habits and learned behaviour.  The two-percenters live in the exact external world as everyone else, but the difference lies in how they make sense of it. [14:17] Andy's Three Proudest Moments  First is Andy's PhD, which took him 12 years to finish, but was proud that he stuck at it. He even graduated at the same time and day as his daughter, who finished her master's degree.  He is proud of his two children and how they turned out. Lastly, Andy feels proud whenever he sees his books displayed in bookshops.  [18:44] Happiness versus Positivity Happiness is an emotion. You can open up to it or let it in, but you can't choose it Meanwhile, positivity is an attitude and something you can work on. It's not easy, but you can get better at it.  Two-percenters are a handful of genuinely optimistic and upbeat people.  They do the difficult task of making a conscious and deliberate choice to have a positive attitude.  According to the nudge theory, there is already a brilliant version of you lurking inside.  [20:49] How Two-Percenters Developed Their Positive Thinking Most of them underwent many challenges, trauma, and adversity. These experiences served as a wakeup call that kicked them to become more positive.  Social learning states that for children to be confident and optimistic, their parents must embody it first. [23:43] Top Tips on How People Can Make the Choice of Positivity The Japanese phrase ‘ichi-go ichi-e' relays the uniqueness or rise of the moment. It teaches us to live in the moment a little bit more.  Be your best self wherever you go. Self-care is being conscious now and having an eye on being kind to your future self.  Andy suggests learning the importance of being your self's best mate. Listen to the full podcast to learn more about the content of Andy's books and his three favourite books! [34:31] Andy's Secrets to Success Be good at ordinary things, like being kind, passionate, resilient, and having a positive attitude.  Andy's butterfly metaphor says that the secret to happiness is to stop long enough to be in the moment.  Listen to the full podcast to know the background of Andy's butterfly metaphor! 5 Powerful Quotes from This Episode [03:39] ‘We're all going to have bad days, right? That's fair enough. But you don't have to have a bad life'. [8:25] ‘I just think that when the world's doing its worst, which it is at the moment, then it's even more important that we know how to be at our best'. [20:22] ‘I tell everybody, you already are a superhero, but you pretended to be normal. So stop pretending'. [25:04] ‘When you become this two-percenter, you have to kind of inhabit that personality of being the best you, and it goes everywhere with you'. [38:23] ‘Maybe happiness isn't a pursuit. Maybe if we just stopped for long enough, happiness would have time to catch up with us'. About Andy Cope Andy Cope, also known as ‘Dr of Happiness', is a best-selling author, happiness expert, qualified teacher, and recovering academic. He is a sought-after keynote speaker and a highly-respected figure on employee wellbeing and human flourishing.

Keynote speaker Al Hutchinson, President and CEO of Baltimore Convention & Visitor's Bureau speaks at the Virginia Beach, Virginia branch of the NAACP's Freedom Fund Banquet. He begins his message of social involvement and leading towards excellence by stating that he will focus on Being Bold, Being Brilliant, and finally Being Gone.Al Hutchinson, 57, became Visit Baltimore's new president and CEO in November 2016. Hutchinson brings more than 24 years of experience in the hospitality and destination marketing industry to Baltimore, most recently serving as president and CEO of Visit Mobile, where he was recognized as the 2016 Alabama Restaurant and Hospitality Alliance's ‘Tourism Promoter of the Year.' Under Hutchinson's leadership, Visit Mobile launched a new brand campaign, ‘Born to Celebrate;' saw record visitor attendance; a large increase in visitor inquiries; and an increase in the city's hotel occupancy rate and revenue collection.As president and CEO of Visit Baltimore, Hutchinson will be responsible for leading the growth of the convention and tourism industry in Baltimore, overseeing the day-to-day management of all sales and marketing programs and serving as the hospitality industry's liaison to the business, civic and local community, while demonstrating the impact of tourism on the City and State.“Visit Baltimore is a strong bureau well positioned for growth and I have great confidence that Al is the right leader to build upon recent successes of the organization,” said Frisch. “From hosting a record 30 citywide conventions in 2015 coupled with multiple years of record visitation numbers, to the creation of a separate Visit Baltimore Education & Training Foundation, he is taking over the helm of a very strong organization. I know that the organization, and in turn the City, the region and the State, will benefit from his sales and marketing experience and strong reputation as a collaborative, transparent leader and effective communicator.”Hutchinson takes over from Ron Melton who stepped in to serve as interim president and CEO at Visit Baltimore beginning May 6, 2016. Melton returns to his full time role as chief operating officer. “I would like to extend my gratitude to Ron for stepping into the interim role during this search process and thank him for his leadership during this time of transition,” said Frisch.Prior to joining Visit Mobile, Hutchinson served as the vice president of convention sales and services at the Virginia Beach Convention and Visitors Bureau where, for more than 11 years, he led the convention sales and service team, directed the advertising agency and worked closely with community leaders, industry decision makers, elected officials and tourism partners.Hutchinson has spent a good portion of his professional career in the hospitality industry also serving in leadership positions with the Greater Pittsburgh Convention and Visitors Bureau, the Charlotte Convention Center, the Park Hotel in Charlotte and the Richmond Metropolitan CVB.“I look forward to leading Baltimore's tourism efforts and to working with the Visit Baltimore team, Convention and Tourism Board of Directors, the city's elected officials and the citizens of Baltimore to lead the City to new heights,” said Hutchinson. “I'm excited by the opportunity to take the helm of such a strong organization.” --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/get-on-code/message
