Hi there and a very warm welcome to Season 5 Episode 59 of People Soup.P Soupers - Compassion is a theme that's been on my mind over the last few weeks, what with travel, preparing proposals, catching up on business admin and curating the podcast, I realise that I haven't always adopting a stance of kindness and compassion towards myself, I've been feeling a bit pooped.With that in mind we're revisiting part two of my chat with Dr Stan Steindl today.

Hi there and a very warm welcome to Season 5 Episode 58 of People Soup.P Soupers - what were you doing on 28 November 2020. I can tell you what I was doing in the late afternoon - I was chatting to Dr Eric Goodman - anxiety specialist and author - about his book - Your Anxiety Beast and You: A Compassionate Guide to Living in an Increasingly Anxious World - recorded in an echoey room in our rented apartment in Malaga. We're revisiting part two of that conversation today. Partly because Eric speaks about anxiety in such a human and relatable way, so it's useful for us all to check in with his wisdom. And also because Eric has written another book - called The Mindful Freak-out: A rescue manual for being at your best when life is at it's worst." And well be having him back on the show to talk about that book over the next couple of months.We start with my review, find out what the toughest animal on the planet is and talk about the human superpower of mental time travel. You also find out how we can teach our anxiety, which often has a better safe than sorry mentality. We finish with an insight in to the illustrations in the book - by dear and much missed friend of the show - Louise Gardner, your ACT Auntie. It's a joy to hear Eric reflect on the process of working with Lou.People Soup is an award winning podcast where we share evidence based behavioural science, in a way that’s practical, accessible and fun.

Hi there and a very warm welcome to Season 5 Episode 39 of People Soup – it’s Ross McIntosh here.  P Soupers - I'm continuing my chat with Dr Ben Askew - he's an acting teacher, writer and director. If you haven't listened to Part one - where we find out more about Ben and some pivotal moments in his life - I'd recommend you pause and go and have a listen. In this episode you'll hear more about the ways Ben uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy or ACT in a theatrical environment - breaking it down into three parts - people, plays and process. We also chat about his paper - called "Towards or Not Towards: Using the Act Matrix as a psychological tool in the analysis and interpretation of dramatic texts and characters." How does Hamlet help us explore the human condition through the ACT lens?And...there's a cracking takeaway.

Hi there and a very warm welcome to Season 5 Episode 37 of People Soup – it’s Ross McIntosh here.  For the Festive Season - we're looking back at some of our fabulous expert guests. Our first People Soup Rewind - is with Dr Kevin Teoh. In my Spotify wrapped for podcasters this year - this was the most popular episode - so it definitely deserves another airing.Kevin is a Senior Lecturer and the Programme Director for the MSc in Organizational Psychology at Birkbeck, University of London. If you haven't listened to Part One you can catch it here He's also the Executive Officer, European Academy of Occupational Health Psychology. In part two of our chat we focus on Kevin's research and his thoughts on how workplaces are designed, organised and managed, what's known as the psychosocial context or the psychosocial working conditions - and what we're really trying to develop is a healthy workplace.. Such is Kevin's generosity in sharing his thoughts that this whole episode is like a takeaway banquet. To hear Kevin speak is really thought provoking and you'll hear him talk about his consulting approach, the workplace themes he's noticing, how organisations can sometimes see well-being as a tick box exercise and his simple recommendations for a step by step approach to organisational health.
