Does this holiday season feel heavier than it should? Are emotions feeling closer to the surface, leaving you exhausted, anxious, or unsteady without knowing why? What if this isn't just "holiday stress," but a massive energetic transition that is literally dissolving your past? Michael welcomes back Jim Self, spiritual teacher and co-founder of Mastering Alchemy, to explain exactly what is happening beneath the surface of this overwhelming time. Jim reveals the shocking truth: We are in the middle of a massive transition from a third-dimensional state of reaction and duality into a new state of Wellbeing.  This isn't just about coping; this is about understanding that you cannot take your "baggage" with you where we are going. Discover why linear time is dissolving, how the "monster under the bed" is actually just an old towel, and the specific tools you need to dissolve the shadows before they bite. Key Topics: Moving out of the 3rd dimension (reaction, duality, linear time) and why it feels so "choppy" right now. The Baggage Rule: Why you cannot take your old wounds and beliefs ("baggage") with you into the new frequency. A simple, powerful visualization to instantly explode negative thoughts and remove unfinished emotions from your space. Linear Time vs. Present Time: Why living in the past creates suffering, and how "Present Time" is the only place where wellbeing exists. How we are finally weaving the emotional flow of Mu with the structure of Atlantis to create a new, unbreakable "Golden Thread" of love and intelligence. The 2026 & 2027 Acceleration: Jim's prediction on why the next two years will dissolve the memory of "not being okay" and lead to a spectacular expansion of consciousness. Why asking "What's wrong with me?" attracts more pain, and how to shift your attention to dissolve it instantly. If you are ready to stop arguing for your limitations and start remembering who you truly are, this message will help you find the excitement in the unknown. Join the Inspire Nation Soul Family!

In this episode of the HR Leaders Podcast, we sit down with Michael Burgess, Chief People Officer at Amey, to unpack what it really takes to build credibility, influence, and impact in HR when you don't start with privilege, pedigree, or permission.Michael shares his journey from leaving school at 16 and working as a farm labourer, to becoming a CPO responsible for people, culture, safety, and operations at scale. Along the way, he explains why hard work consistently beats talent, and why enjoying the work itself is the most underrated driver of long-term performance.Most importantly, he breaks down a deeply practical view of modern HR, why getting the basics right earns you the seat at the table, why listening without action destroys trust, and how widening the talent pool through second-chance hiring, apprenticeships, and prison-to-work pathways is not charity, but smart, future-ready leadership.

This meant that Anna was introduced to the industry at a very young age.She has always been a curious person, wanting to know why things are happening, and how they manifest. Anna herself suffers from Inflammatory bowel disease, and she shares how she is one of 1/2 a million with the condition.

Hello and welcome to the final episode of My Pocket Psych for 2025. In this brief episode, I take a look ahead to the benefits of side-stepping unhelpful messages about the New Year, and how small changes, personal experiments and a fresh start might be what we all need instead.  No matter what holiday you're celebrating in December, I hope you get a chance to effectively disconnect from work. I hope you get a chance to engage in whatever traditions bring you a sense of meaning and purpose, and really importantly, get a chance to relax and enjoy yourself. I'll be back in touch in 2026, but until then, I wish you an excellent holiday.

Most of us experience ourselves as solid and unchanging, as if there's a stable “me” at the center of our thoughts, feelings, and actions. But in meditation, when we slow down and look more closely, that sense of solidity begins to soften.In Dissolving the Separate Self, Craig guides a contemplative practice designed to help us look more closely and discover that what we are is not a fixed “self” that is  separate from the world around us, but a fluid, dynamic process that is deeply connected with life as it unfolds.You may want to listen at a time when you can be quiet and unhurried.For a deeper experience of Craig's approach to meditation, consider joining our Awakened Life membership program which offers in-depth guidance, a meditation workshop, and a live online retreat with Craig.

In this episode of the HR Leaders Podcast, we sit down with Jason Bloomfield, Global Head of Talent Acquisition Transformation at Ericsson, to unpack how a 149-year-old company is rebuilding HR by putting people before technology.Jason explains how a failed global HR tool rollout, what he openly calls the “tool of doom,” became the catalyst for a complete reset. Instead of adding more systems, Ericsson built a global feedback loop that turns employee sentiment into action, investment, and prioritised roadmaps.Most importantly, Jason shares why five-year plans no longer work, why the shelf life of strategy is now six months, and how HR, TA, and change leaders must build change agility, skills intelligence, and authentic empathy to stay relevant in an AI-driven world.

I know what you're thinking… surely there's more than 10 things?You'd be correct. But if I really thought about all the things I wish I'd known sooner about living with type 1 diabetes, I'd be here forever. Because trying to wade through the chaos that is managing this ridiculous chronic illness is a constant learning curve. Type 1 diabetes a never-ending game, a quest that is impossible to complete - and one that we're often left to figure out alone. Despite the best of intentions from loved ones, and even if you have access to amazing healthcare teams, 24/7/365, it's us.And we don't know what we don't know - until we're forced to confront it for the first time with critical urgency and a double down arrow…BUT! I have found that are certain things - tools, information, perspectives - that I've gathered in my almost thirty years of living with type 1 diabetes that have helped. A lot. And I'd quite like to go back and give them to my younger self - because she had a tough time of it for a while.So whether you're newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes or you've been doing this for a while, hopefully there's something in here for you.DISCLAIMER Nothing you hear on Type 1 on 1 should be taken as medical advice. Please consult your healthcare team before making any changes to your diabetes or health management.PEOPLE, PLACES AND THINGS MENTIONED14 lessons that have helped me to live with type 1 diabetesThe road to acceptance with type 1 diabetes5 ways I increased my time in range as a person with type 1 diabetesVIDEO: 24 Lessons In 24 Years with Type 1 DiabetesThe psychology of food and type 1 diabetes with nutritional therapist Beth EdwardsJOIN THE TYPE 1 ON 1 COMMUNITY: Come and say hi @studiotype1on1 on Instagram.Visit the Type 1 on 1 website.Subscribe to the Type 1 on 1 newsletter.SPONSOR MESSAGEThis episode of Type 1 on 1 is sponsored by Dexcom.

Members also receive support from me as well as others who are in the same journey. I love my research work and love sharing the information I uncover with others because I believe that knowledge is wonderfully infectious and expands when shared.

"Our default way of being is so strong, and the more depleted we are, the more likely we are to fall back to these default patterns." - Meg Durham In this final episode of The School of Wellbeing, Meg is interviewed by friend and colleague, David Bott, in a warm, honest and often hilarious reflection on the year that was. Together they explore the messy moments, the quiet wins and the stories behind the work. From people-pleasing when depleted, to balcony moments and co-reflection, to advocating as a parent and recognising the crumbs of impact that keep us going. Along the way, Meg shares the phrases that have saved her, and why doing less, but doing it better, matters more than ever. This conversation is a reminder that wellbeing is not about perfection, but about being deliberate, human and connected in the work we do. ---- Chapter Markers: 00:00 Turning the tables and setting the scene 02:18 What changes when Meg becomes the guest 05:40 The wetsuit story and default modes under pressure 10:51 A massage misadventure and people-pleasing when tired 16:02 The omelette incident and learning to pivot 19:27 What these moments teach us about depletion 20:59 Balcony moments, co-reflection and sentence starters 24:50 A real reflection on the year that was 25:42 Parenting, advocacy and uncomfortable conversations 29:38 The phrases that have saved Meg this year 30:59 What “kicking ten” looks like now 32:18 The crumb theory and invisible impact 37:47 Shifting seasons and reclaiming energy 40:25 Ocean swims, perspective and joy 46:48 Moments of pride from 2025 49:28 Looking ahead to 2026 ---- Deliberate Actions: Notice your default patterns of thinking and behaving when you are depleted.

In this episode of the REB Podcast, deputy editor Emilie Lauer sits down with the Rise Initiative's Kylie Davis to unpack why wellbeing has become one of the industry's most urgent issues – and why agents can't afford to ignore it heading into 2026. Davis explains why wellbeing shouldn't feel like just another item on an already overwhelming to-do list, arguing instead for small, sustainable habits that help agents manage stress before it escalates into burnout. Drawing on her own experiences, Davis highlights the emotional toll property transactions can have on buyers and sellers, and why agents often find themselves acting as "first responders" to clients in crisis. The conversation explores how agents can support highly stressed buyers and sellers without absorbing that pressure themselves, why switching off over the holiday period is so difficult in a commission-based industry, and how a gradual wind-down can make all the difference. Davis also challenges agencies and networks to move beyond outdated "harden up" mentalities, outlining their legal and moral responsibility to actively support staff wellbeing. Looking ahead, she discusses the role technology and artificial intelligence (AI) could play in identifying stress patterns early – while warning that human connection remains irreplaceable.

In this special crossover episode with my mate Shelley Johnson from This Is Work, we sat down with printed lists and compared notes on 25 things that 2025 taught us. Along the way, patterns emerged around how we show up, where our energy gets spent, and the ways our work is changing beneath us. Shelley and I discuss: Why energy has become the most useful lens for thinking about performance, focus and resilience How boundaries, rest and creating margin changed the way I worked this year Why embarrassment can be an unexpected teacher and a healthy check on the ego The difference between psychological safety and psychological comfort at work Why connection matters more than charisma when it comes to influence How AI has shifted from being a tool to something closer to a coworker Why deadlines, postmortems and focusing on the problem instead of the person improve team dynamics Small posture and workflow changes that made a big difference to how I felt at work KEY QUOTES “Energy is the new KPI.” “The wins are never as good as you think, and the losses are never as bad as you think.

How can leaders redesign work to boost both engagement and well-being?Why is “fit for purpose” more important than “best practice” when it comes to designing work?My guest in this episode is Rachel Cooke, Founder of Lead Above Noise & Host of the Modern Mentor podcast.

In this episode of the HR Leaders Podcast, we sit down with Kristin Trecker, Chief People Officer at Visteon Corporation, to unpack what it really takes to build talent at the speed of disruption in a 100-year industry going through a 100-year change.Kristin explains why HR has to stop acting like an order taker and start operating like a product line manager, with a clear roadmap, clear customers, and a clear point of view. She shares how Visteon runs a six month product roadmap and pairs it with a capability and capacity plan, so talent decisions keep pace with the business.Most importantly, she breaks down the cultural shift behind it all, from calibrating performance around impact, to out-rewarding star performers, to rewriting HR's role entirely, replacing “business partner” with performance coach, and building a team that can debate, challenge, and drive change without politics.

Fruit baskets don't cure burnout. Neither do yoga apps. Dr. Richard Safeer explains why most wellness programs flop, and how leaders can build cultures of health that actually stick. He shares why well-being belongs in the strategic plan, not the suggestion box, and how six building blocks – peer support, leadership engagement, connection points, norms, values, and social climate – turn good intentions into everyday behaviors. You'll hear stories from Johns Hopkins where small shifts (blood pressure wins, manager training, even better cafeteria choices) stacked up to big cultural change. This isn't about adding another program. It's about making well-being who you are as a company, not what you do once a year.

Dr. Laura welcomes Navin ‘nuvs' Jain, Product Evangelist at Workhuman, to the show to talk about gratitude and recognition. Workhuman focuses on workplace cultures that foster recognition, and Nuvs is deeply committed to spreading the word on the power of thanks and elevating great work happening in organizations. He and Dr. Laura discuss why gratitude can disappear from workplaces and how it can be brought back. There is a tendency at work to think “well that's just their job” when work is done well, but Nuvs outlines the power of saying thanks and how research supports that appreciation for work done elevates employee mental health and productivity. Dr. Laura and Nuvs address how the workplace culture is affected by what's role modeled and that leaders are the ones who need to make the change. A lack of empathy and a rise of toxic bosses has waylaid appreciation, but the impact of offering thanks can't be ignored. This episode explores human connection, gratitude, and how recognition increases workplace wellness. “I've talked about emotion before, and empathy. And that's really what I think is a key difference when someone says thank you. First of all, they're expressing gratitude. They're recognizing something you've done. And that actually makes you feel like, oh, I matter. I'm actually doing something here for the organization. And that drives that sense of belonging.” - Navin ‘nuvs' JainAbout Navin ‘nuvs' Jain:Based in Boston, MA, Navin ‘nuvs' Jain is a Product Evangelist at Workhuman, and previously spent five years developing the core recognition features of the Workhuman Cloud. A Workhuman solutions veteran, Nuvs previously led the effort to bring Service Milestones, Life Events, and Inclusion Advisor to market. He is passionate about creating a culture of recognition and enjoys discussing movies, tech, and politics. Resources:Website: WorkHuman.comLinkedInInstagramLearn more about Dr. Laura on her website: https://drlaura.live“I Wish I'd Quit Sooner:  Pre-orders: Practical Strategies for Navigating and Escaping a Toxic Boss” by Dr. Laura Hambley Lovett - Pre-orders and AmazonFor more resources, look into Dr. Laura's organizations: Canada Career CounsellingSynthesis Psychology Pre-order Dr. Laura's new book today: I Wish I'd Quit Sooner: Practical Strategies for Navigating a Toxic Boss Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Today on the High Performance Mindset, I'm talking with someone who is truly changing the way we think about work and wellbeing. Jen Fisher is a global leader in this space — and honestly, she's just one of those people who makes you feel seen and grounded the moment she starts talking. Jen was Deloitte's first-ever Chief Well-Being Officer, which basically means she helped a massive organization rethink what it really means to support people. Her passion comes from her own journey through burnout and cancer, and she's used those experiences to build a career focused on helping leaders create work cultures where people can actually flourish, not just survive. She's the bestselling author of Work Better Together, the host of The WorkWell Podcast, a TEDx speaker, and the founder of The Wellbeing Team. But what I love most is her belief that hope isn't just a feeling… it's a strategy. And she helps leaders put that strategy into action. In this conversation, Jen and I dive into burnout, the future of work, wellbeing intelligence, and what it really takes to create organizations where people feel energized and valued. You're going to walk away feeling inspired — and maybe rethinking a thing or two about how you work and lead. HIGH PERFORMANCE MINDSET SHOWNOTES FOR THIS EPISODE

Aly Maier Lokuta knows that art and science aren't opposing disciplines. They're a shared language for strengthening public wellbeing.  Her career has long bridged these worlds, from co-founding Rutgers' Arts and Health Research Lab to leading the largest public mural initiative since the WPA era during her time with NYC Health + Hospitals. Now, as AVP of Arts and Well-Being at the New Jersey Performing Arts Center,  she's proving what many leaders in the field are only beginning to articulate: that cultural institutions can be powerful drivers of community health.  In this episode, Aly shares real-world examples of arts-in-health programs and actionable advice for organizations looking to launch or grow their own initiatives.

Journalist and author, Brigid Delaney looked into the ancient philosophy during an assignment from her editor. What she discovered led her to years of study and a brand-new outlook on life that focuses less on happiness and more on meaning and contentment.Brigid is devoted to the Stoics, a philosophy that encourages its followers to focus on what they can control, accepting what happens outside of that sphere of control, and mastering inner peace to have a good life.These ideas have helped Brigid prepare for grief and take the edge off her anxiety by putting it in context.One of the most powerful Stoic ideas is that all the wonderful things and people in our life are “on loan” and can be taken away at any moment.Instead of taking them for granted, the Stoics wanted us to run toward them at full speed, and wring as much fun and juice out of them as we can.Further informationBrigid's new book The Seeker And The Sage, and Reasons Not To Worry: How to be Stoic in chaotic times are both published by Allen & Unwin.The Executive Producer of Conversations is Nicola Harrison.This episode contains references to a buddhist with attitude, Nassim Taleb, stoic week, Nero, improving my life, how to improve my life, how to be content, how to find meaning in life, The Guardian, Brigid Delaney's Diary, newspaper column, newspaper columnist, writer, writing life, author, novel, fable, Circles of Hierocles, meditation, Celeste Barber, Wellmania, netflix and internal happiness.To binge even more great episodes of the Conversations podcast with Richard Fidler and Sarah Kanowski go the ABC listen app (Australia) or wherever you get your podcasts.

Advent E2 — In the second week of Advent, we're reflecting on peace. The word most often translated as “peace” in the Hebrew Bible is shalom, but its meaning goes far beyond the absence of conflict. Shalom is about wholeness, completeness, and everything being as it should be. It describes uncut stones at an altar, honest weights in the marketplace, integrity of the heart, flourishing relationships, and life lived in harmony with God's purposes. In this episode, Jon and Tim trace the deep biblical meaning of peace and show how Advent points to the arrival of Jesus, the Prince of Peace, who reconciles divided people and makes them one.FULL SHOW NOTESFor chapter-by-chapter notes including summaries, referenced Scriptures, biblical words, and reflection questions, check out the full show notes for this episode.CHAPTERSShalom in Stones, Weights, and Hearts—and Also Fulfillment (00:00–15:15)Shalom as Well-Being and the Prince of Shalom  (15:15–29:21)Jesus, Our Peace (29:21–35:38)Reflections on Peace With Allison (35:38-39:42)OFFICIAL EPISODE TRANSCRIPTView this episode's official transcript.REFERENCED RESOURCESShalom / Peace: Though not referenced directly in the episode, this 2017 video explores the same biblical word, shalom.Check out Tim's extensive collection of recommended books here.SHOW MUSIC“Silver N Gold” by  Lofi Sunday & Yoni Charis“Snow Fall” by Lofi Sunday & TBabz “Snowflakes” by AvesBibleProject theme song by TENTS SHOW CREDITSProduction of today's episode is by Lindsey Ponder, producer, and Cooper Peltz, managing producer.
