Peppery conversations between Chartered Psychologist Serena Simmons and Clinical Hypnotherapist Sally Garozzo about what it really takes to make changes.
Living optimally as a human will inevitably require some modifications to our behaviour.
Maybe your doctor has told you that intermittent fasting will help your pre-diabetis?
Maybe your therapist has said it will be helpful for you to turn off all screen at 10pm?
Or maybe your partner has asked you to communicate with them more clearly?
That’s all well and good but HOW do you do that?
Lucky for you, behaviour change is a skill that we can learn and Serena and Sally are here to guide you through the ins and outs.
This podcast is for you if you’re a person wanting to change anything about your life, a ‘life athlete’ wanting to optimise your life, or a healthcare professional working with people who’s lives depend on making changes.
