In this episode, Alison sits down with Dr. Kiki Ramsey, a positive psychologist and executive coach, who is also the founder of the Positive Psychology Coaching and Diversity Institute. They delve into the concept of positive psychology, which focuses on understanding what goes right in our lives rather than solely addressing what goes wrong.Dr. Kiki shares her fascinating journey from working as a social worker to founding her own company. Her and Alison explore the essence of positive psychology as a counterbalance to traditional psychology's deficit model, shifting the narrative from problems and ailments to potential and flourishing. Dr. Kiki articulates that positive psychology is about adopting an abundance mindset, allowing individuals not only to envision a better future but to believe that they can achieve it.Throughout their conversation, they touch on the significance of personal choice—how our thoughts shape our reality, and the empowerment one gains from recognizing that we always have a choice, even in difficult situations. They also talk about the vital connection between self-care and effective leadership. Dr. Kiki stresses that taking care of oneself is foundational to being able to serve others effectively. She highlights how many people operate from a place of depletion, pouring from a dry cup. This leads to discussions around maintaining healthy boundaries, prioritizing self-care, and the necessity of nurturing our well-being to show up fully for ourselves and those around us.Dr. Kiki offers practical advice for integrating positive psychology into daily life, including the “Three Good Things” exercise that encourages individuals to reflect on the positive aspects of their day before going to sleep. This simple yet effective practice can significantly improve overall happiness and mindset.HIGHLIGHTS:15:48 Respectful Conversations in Disagreement17:40 Daily Self-Care and Responsibilities23:08 Starting Your Journey in Positive PsychologyCONNECT WITH DR.
