Dr. Bill Sullivan (Author of 'Pleased to Meet Me') is back chatting to us about the challenge of being truly open-minded and curious when it comes to ideas and beliefs that don't reflect our own, whether or not we're teachable, the skill of 'unlearning', a thing called 'the knowledge illusion', the concept of evidenced-based decision making and living, using science in our everyday lives (even if we're not scientists) and what can happen when our beliefs and ideas become our identity. Enjoy.

OMG (as the kids say), I loved this chat with Dr. Alex; maybe my favourite so far. We did a deep dive on how consciousness is ‘switched off' under general anaesthetic, how to remove a large benign brain tumour (just in case you need to), the amazing hi-tech tools surgeons get to play (work) with, creating the perfect environment for a surgeon to perform optimally (it's complicated), how our brain floats in salt water (and why), why colours aren't 'real', why laughter might actually be a stress response and lots more. Enjoy. @dralexkoefman

On this episode of TYP, Patrick shows how easily someone can 'steal our voice' and misrepresent us, using Al to 'say things' that we've never said (if you know what I mean). Unknown to me, he showed up to our chat with a bunch of pre-recorded, Al-generated statements using my voice, that he proceeded to wheel out through the course of our 'actual' conversation. Even though it was all in fun, it's also kind of terrifying to realise that with just a 30-second audio sample of my voice (or yours), people with bad intentions can potentially create havoc. Even more terrifying when you consider the fact that this technology is improving exponentially and pretty soon, it will be almost impossible to know what audio (and video) is and isn't authentic.

He is predictably unpredictable. Once again I walked through the Geoff door to a wonderland of random thoughts, seemingly unrelated concepts, high-performance coaching, a few new theories, laughter, and in general terms, Geoff-speak. I dunno what else to tell you. Enjoy.

As part of Dr Lucas Dixon's PhD research, he conducted three studies (collective N = 1,023), exploring the psychology of people who believe in manifestation; the ability to cosmically attract success in life through positive self-talk, visualization, and symbolic actions. I recently stumbled across one of his papers about his research exploring 'the psychology of belief in manifestation' and decided to reach out and see if he would chat with me about his work. He said yes! Enjoy.

According to Nikki Morrison (our resident Nurse, Death Doula and Angel), Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD) is a medical condition similar to Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) but it's a kind-of, ‘on steroids’ version. PMDD causes severe (sometimes extreme) irritability, depression, pain and/or anxiety in the week or two before a period starts. For Nikki, extreme PMDD led her to question her sanity, her future, her ability to keep working, to have relationships and even, to leave the house. For me, this was an eye-opener on a range of levels. Enjoy.
