Podcasts about mental wellbeing

Lasting change begins with a shift in both mindset and behavior. Many people remain stuck in self-defeating patterns because of unconscious narratives, emotional triggers, and a disconnection from their body's inner wisdom. Change isn't just about willpower or information—it's about learning to rewire the brain through small, intentional actions that generate powerful emotional feedback loops. Identity transformation happens not through repetition, but through experiences that create a sense of success. In a world flooded with conflicting advice and manipulative marketing, reclaiming agency requires tuning into your own signals, building self-trust, and recognizing that behavior change is a design challenge—not a character flaw. Empowerment comes from realizing that the ability to change is built into who we are as humans. In this episode, I speak with Tom Bilyeu, Dr. Rangan Chatterjee, and Dr. BJ Fogg about cracking the nut of behavior change. Tom Bilyeu is a filmmaker and serial entrepreneur best known as the co-founder of Quest Nutrition, a billion-dollar company built to combat metabolic disease through value-driven innovation. After nearly a decade of chasing financial success and feeling unfulfilled, he realized the importance of loving the struggle itself. This insight led him and his partners to shift focus from profit to purpose. Quest quickly became the second fastest-growing company in North America, according to Inc. Magazine. After achieving significant personal wealth, Tom turned to the other global crisis he saw—disempowering mindsets. To address this, he co-founded Impact Theory, a media studio with his wife, Lisa Bilyeu. Their mission is to scale mindset transformation by producing empowering content that shifts the cultural subconscious. Just as Disney built the most magical place on Earth, the Bilyeus aim to build the most empowering one. Dr. Rangan Chatterjee is regarded as one of the most influential doctors in the UK. A practicing GP for the last two decades, Dr. Chatterjee wants to inspire people to transform their health by making small, sustainable changes to their lifestyles. Host of the #1 Apple podcast, Feel Better, Live More, and presenter of BBC 1's Doctor in the House, Dr. Chatterjee is the author of 5 Sunday Times bestselling books and his TED Talk, “How to Make Diseases Disappear,” has now been viewed over 4.8 million times. His newest book is Happy Mind, Happy Life: The New Science of Mental Well-Being. Dr. BJ Fogg is a behavior scientist, author, and founder of the Behavior Design Lab at Stanford University, where he has researched human behavior since 1998. He developed the groundbreaking “Behavior Design” system, which explains how behavior works and how to design it effectively. Over the past decade, his lab has focused on practical applications—from helping people navigate coronavirus-related challenges to training climate change professionals in behavior change strategies. BJ is also the creator of the “Tiny Habits” method, a simple, science-backed approach to habit formation that has helped over 40,000 people make lasting life changes. His work empowers individuals and organizations to design behavior that benefits both people and the planet. He shares his insights in the New York Times best-selling book, Tiny Habits: The Small Changes That Change Everything. This episode is brought to you by BIOptimizers.

This week's episode of Leadership is Feminine is a little different. Kris Plachy offers a compelling call to action for team members everywhere to take ownership of their well-being and personal power in the workplace. Rather than placing full trust in employers to manage our financial, mental, or emotional health, Kris invites listeners to reexamine what it means to be self-led, informed, and intentional about their lives and careers. This episode is a powerful reminder that relying solely on an employer for your sense of security can be a risky trade. Kris shares her own journey—from getting her first job at 14—to explore the historical and cultural shifts that shaped the modern workplace. She breaks down why the system evolved the way it did and challenges the long-standing belief that employers should be the primary caretakers of their people's lives outside of work. Kris advocates for reclaiming agency and reminds us, “You were born as this capable human who is infinitely more powerful than she or he may believe... and I just want to invite you to consider that there might be another way to think about who you are, and how you accept personal responsibility for the results you get in your life.” Through honest reflection and practical insight, she urges listeners to invest in their own financial, mental, and emotional literacy. It's not about rejecting work—it's about refusing to outsource your power. If you're ready to shift from dependency to empowerment, this episode offers the mindset reset you didn't know you needed. Tune in and discover what it means to truly lead yourself first. Key Takeaways From This Episode Personal Agency in Employment: Importance of not placing well-being in the hands of an employer. Evolution of Employment Benefits: Critique of societal beliefs about employer responsibilities. Impact of Societal Beliefs About Employers: Relinquishing personal agency and a drop in financial literacy. Call for a New Perspective and Responsibility in Employment: Encouragement to manage personal health, financial, and emotional well-being Contact Information and Recommended Resources Join Kris to help impact 20 Million Women across the Globe!

Navigating Anxiety Caused by Social Media: Finding Faith and Resilience Social media can be considered both a blessing and a curse. For many people, especially the younger generation, anxiety caused by social media has become a growing issue. To figure out how to find balance in interacting with social media, you need to turn to your faith. The Impact of Social Media on Mental Health Though designed to connect us, social media often does the opposite. The constant comparison to others' highlight reels can easily lead to anxiety and feelings of inadequacy. When you scroll through endless feeds, turning off your brain, you absorb content without truly processing it. In this state, you're not filtering what is true and what is false. Without mindful engagement, social media can become a source of stress rather than a tool for connection. Faith as a Source of Strength Leaning into your faith can be so helpful in combating anxiety caused by social media. Reading scripture and immersing ourselves in God's word provides true comfort. Scripture reminds us that our worth is not defined by likes or followers but by our relationship with God. Strategies to Limit Anxiety Caused by Social Media For those who want to engage more responsibly with social media, follow these strategies: Curate Your Feed: Follow accounts that inspire positivity and align with your values. Unfollow accounts that evoke feelings of inadequacy or negativity. Engage with Faith-Based Content Do Devotions: Start or end the day with a devotional or scripture reading. This practice can help center your thoughts and provide a faith-driven perspective on daily challenges. Seeking Professional Help Faith is a powerful tool, but sometimes, it's necessary to seek additional support. If the anxiety feels overwhelming, reaching out to a mental health professional can provide you with valuable guidance. Therapy, counseling, or even medication may be necessary to restore emotional balance and ensure you're on a healthy path.

As I approached my milestone birthday (50), I found myself reflecting on what it truly means to live a well-lived life. Would I trade spontaneity for meticulously curated longevity? This episode dives into the balance between living fully and striving for longevity, drawing insights from *The Wealth That Money Can't Buy* by Robin Sharma and *Outlive* by Peter Attia. We explore themes of health, aging, and personal growth, sharing personal stories of knee troubles and family loss while emphasizing the importance of emotional well-being. Discussing healthspan versus lifespan, we highlight small, sustainable habits from *How Not to Age* by Michael Greger that can lead to profound results. Writing, from journaling to blogging, emerges as a powerful tool for self-reflection and personal growth. We also touch on the importance of mindful morning routines and creative ways to capture spontaneous ideas. In a world of societal divides, we emphasize unity, understanding, and the ongoing journey of balancing love and frustration with the world around us.--------- EPISODE CHAPTERS ---------(0:00:01) - Warrior Mindset and Book Exchange(0:04:30) - Health and Aging Perspectives(0:17:51) - Wealth, Health, and Human Connection(0:22:40) - Immortality, Journaling, and Resource Management(0:26:59) - Daily Five(0:37:51) - Implementing Growth Mindset and Healthy Habits(0:46:54) - Morning Rituals and Traditions(0:51:16) - Unity Amidst DivideSend us a text

When was the last time you felt awe? Perhaps it's an emotion you notice often, evoked by the trees, clouds, or people around you. Or maybe it's something you associate with more dramatic, less frequent experiences.   Today's guest, Dr Dacher Keltner, has written a sublime book on the subject of awe. It's called Awe: The New Science of Everyday Wonder and How It Can Transform Your Life and in it he proposes that awe is an emotion that's all around us, waiting to be discovered – and in doing so, we can transform our health and lives for the better.   Dacher is one of the world's foremost emotion scientists and Professor of Psychology at the University of California. He's also Director of the Greater Good Science Center, which studies the psychology, sociology, and neuroscience of happiness and wellbeing. He has spent decades studying the science of happiness and believes that across the world, we are collectively having a moment of reflection and looking for more meaning.   In this conversation, Dacher defines awe as our response to powerful things that are obscure, vast, and mysterious. They're beyond our frame of reference, making us feel small and filling us with wonder. But you don't have to go to the Grand Canyon or see the Northern Lights to find them. Having studied people's understanding and experience of awe in 26 different countries, he's found eight types which are common – and easily available – to us all.   They include nature, music, moral beauty (noticing others' kindness), birth and death, and one of my favourites, ‘collective effervescence'. This is that feeling of coming together with others, moving as one, and sharing the same consciousness – and you may have experienced it in a sports stadium, at a music concert, on a dancefloor, in worship, in a choir, or even at parkrun.    As to the benefits of awe, from calming inflammation to activating the vagus nerve; deactivating our brain's stress centre, to reducing pain perception, these awe experiences are buffers for many modern health conditions that we can't afford to miss.   We spoke in depth about how birth and death are strong triggers for awe, sharing our own painful yet precious experiences of watching close relatives die. We also considered how awe reduces the ego and makes you humble. And how having a regular practice of contemplation, like meditation or breathwork, can open us up to easily noticing and benefitting from everyday awe.   I truly believe that Dacher's work can help all of us find greater meaning and greater health. He's done a fantastic job of finding the science to support his words, but I think we also know intuitively that what he's saying makes perfect sense. This was a wonderful and deeply profound conversation that contains science, storytelling, raw emotion and so much more. I hope you enjoy listening.   Support the podcast and enjoy Ad-Free episodes.

In a time when news cycles feel nonstop, we'll share strategies for curating reliable sources, consuming information mindfully, and staying engaged without burnout.

In this episode of the Good Humans Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Matthew Iasiello, a leading mental wellbeing scientist whose research is transforming how we measure and promote positive mental health.Matt's work centers around the dual-continua model of mental health, which challenges the idea that mental illness and mental wellbeing are simply opposite ends of the same spectrum. Instead, his research shows they are distinct but interconnected, leading to new approaches in mental health treatment, prevention, and recovery.One of Matt's key areas of focus is languishing—a mental state where people aren't necessarily experiencing mental illness but also aren't thriving. Many of us live in this “stuck in the middle” space, feeling uninspired, unmotivated, and disconnected. Matt and his team at Be Well Co recently conducted a major study examining languishing in Australia, uncovering its impact on individuals and society.In this insightful conversation, we explore:✅ What is languishing? How to identify when you're stuck in this state✅ The science behind mental wellbeing and its link to mental illness✅ How we can use the dual-continua model to rethink mental health strategies✅ Findings from Be Well Co's recent research on mental wellbeing in Australia✅ Practical, evidence-based tools to shift from languishing to thrivingThis episode will challenge the way you think about mental health and provide powerful, research-backed insights on how to move from simply surviving to truly thriving.

Episode 3438 Ryan Frederick highlights how our environment can serve as a powerful life hack, influencing longevity, health, and financial well-being. By choosing or modifying our place - whether through social connections, active lifestyles, or financial decisions - we can create habits that yield exponential benefits over time. Small tweaks to our surroundings can significantly enhance our quality of life. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://www.here.life/blog/place-as-a-life-hack Quotes to ponder: "Place has both direct and indirect impacts on a person's life. The best place elevates the elements of well-being, including purpose, social connection, physical well-being, and financial well-being." "What starts as a small win or a minor setback accumulates into something much more." "It may be that the biggest life hack is hidden in plain sight, it's your home."
