Unwind with Poppy Jamie

On today's podcast, I am joined by Dr Meg Arroll, the author of Tiny Traumas, which is a book that explores all the small cuts and scrapes that occur to our psyche that can actually have a huge impact on how we feel and how we understand ourselves. But often these small things we don't even recognise because they can cause us so much emotional hurt. But we shrug them off because they seem too small to think about. We often will gaslight ourselves for caring about such small incidences, but actually, over time, these small events can build up and really have an impact on how we feel. So instead of pushing down these feelings, Dr. Meg shows us a way to embrace them and become more psychologically healthy in the process.Dr. Meg is a chartered psychologist, a chartered scientist, an associate fellow of the British Psychological Society and has a Ph.D. in psychology. As Dr. Meg explains in her brilliant new book, life doesn't have to be full of tiny traumas weighing us down and there are tools and steps that can help us heal and thrive.Find Dr Meg: Website: https://www.drmegarroll.com/Books: https://www.drmegarroll.com/booksInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/drmegarroll/Please follow @poppyjamie and let me know your thoughts about the episode!

On today's podcast, I have a fascinating guest. I am interviewing Scott Walker, one of the world's most experienced kidnap negotiators. Scott Walker has resolved more than 300 cases using his negotiation skills. And for the first time, he's able to share his techniques. Scott spent 16 years as a Scotland Yard detective, engaged in covert counter-terrorism and kidnapping operations. He has written a fantastic book, a Sunday Times best selling author called Order Out of Chaos that contains his well thought through, tried and tested tips about how to be better at negotiating. It shares a new approach to succeeding when failure is not an option. And it's brilliant.I'm excited for you to have this interview because he really gives such practical takeaways and things that we can all use in our daily lives.Find Scott Walker:Website: https://scottwalkercoaching.com/Book: https://amzn.eu/d/1IEAEfuPlease follow @poppyjamie and let me know your thoughts about the episode!

On this week's Unwind, I'm speaking to the bestselling author, international speaker and psychotherapist Nedra Glover Tawwab. She is an incredible woman who has written books like Set Boundaries, Find Peace. And her latest book explores family relationships and how they impact mental health. Her book is called Drama Free, and it's a guide to managing unhealthy family relationships. I thought this subject is fascinating because there's often a lot of guilt that surrounds difficult family relationships because we feel like we should have harmonious ones. And so when they aren't harmonious, I think a lot of confusion can arise. And if you're someone who has experienced emotional neglect, absent parents, mental health struggles with siblings or other relatives, then I think you'll find this book really helpful because Nedra talks about these difficult issues in a compassionate way and gives practical advice and how you can take control of your own life.Find Nedra:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nedratawwab/?hl=enWebsite: https://www.nedratawwab.com/Buy Drama Free: https://www.nedratawwab.com/drama-freePlease follow @poppyjamie and let me know your thoughts about the episode!

On today's Unwind with Wisdom, we are relaxing with Dr. Tara Swart, who is one of my favorite neuroscientists and the bestselling author of The Source, a book that breaks down the science behind manifestation. Dr. Tara researches and teaches thousands of people around the world on how to achieve mental resilience and peak brain performance. Today we are talking about the power of rest and how it's an essential component in supporting our brain, our dreams, and helping us live the life that we want to that rest to something that we often feel so guilty about.

She is a best selling author multiple times over and she is one of the world's leading motivational coaches. in this episode, she teaches us what it means to have motivation and the tools to get that.

Every time I talk to Mel or listen to her content, I leave feeling more revived, rejuvenated, and just more excited for life.Follow Mel Robbins:Website: https://melrobbins.com/Twitter: https://twitter.com/melrobbinsFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/melrobbins/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/melrobbins/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/melrobbins Hosted on Acast.
