Unwind with Poppy Jamie

On today's unwind, I'm speaking with Elise Loehnen, who is someone I have admired for years and someone who inspired me to start this podcast three years ago. I first discovered Elise when she was hosting the GOOP podcast, and I absolutely adored her interviewing style, her delicate questions and the way that she mesmerised me by the sheer quantity of books she'd read and the nature of the conversations she held.Elise has been a great teacher of mine, and so when I discovered she'd written her very own book, I couldn't have been happier to invite her on this podcast because she is truly an incredible woman. Elise is now the host of her very own podcast called Pulling the Thread. She has co-written 12 books, five of which were New York Times best sellers and she's now written a brand new book that has had me spellbound for days. The book is called On Our Best Behaviour: The Price Women Pay to Be Good. And the book uncovers and unravels the seven deadly sins that have seeped into our lives, whether we are conscious of it or not. This book would never have been able to see the light of day a few decades ago because Elise investigates oppressive societal norms so many of us accept and others enforced in a way that exposes how toxic and hurtful they are for humanity, especially women.Elise's new book is out on 23rd May in the UK.Find Elise:Website: https://www.eliseloehnen.com/Pre-order her new book: https://amzn.eu/d/0niHcU3Podcast: https://www.eliseloehnen.com/episodesInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/eliseloehnen/?hl=enPlease follow @poppyjamie and let me know your thoughts about the episode!A big thank you to our sponsors:Huel Black Edition is a high protein, nutritionally complete meal in a convenient shake.

Today I am thrilled to be joined by Jonny Wilkinson, a world leading sportsman, author, thought leader and podcast host. You may know him for securing England's Rugby World Cup glory in 2003. Jonny inspired millions and millions of young men in particular, and he was rightfully awarded many accolades, including BBC Sports Personality of the Year, a MBE, an OBE and the holder of the Rugby World Cup Points record.Jonny was the walking poster child of success, but courageously since then he has opened up about how the sparkling lights of those years were a facade in some ways hiding his troublesome mental health. And behind the scenes he suffered from perfectionism. He's been on an inspirational road to recovery and dived into the depths of personal transformation, spirituality and redefining his understanding of human potential and performance.Find Jonny: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jonnywilkinsonofficial/?hl=enI Am Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/i-am-with-jonny-wilkinson/id1610549437A big thank you to our sponsor:Huel Black Edition is a high protein, nutritionally complete meal in a convenient shake.

Today I am interviewing Andre Sólo, who is the author of Sensitive: The Hidden Power of The Highly Sensitive Person in a loud, fast and too much world. He's the co-founder of Sensitive Refuge, the world's largest website for sensitive people and has spoken about sensitive people and sensitive leadership at Google, Amazon and PayPal.As a sensitive person himself, Andre believes that the world needs more of what sensitive people have to offer. I'm so looking forward to interviewing Andre, because I'm gradually beginning to realise that there are many benefits to being sensitive after beating myself up about it for so many years. Andre's brilliant new book provides easy tools to help us navigate sensitivity, whether that be our own or help us manage the sensitivity of others, whether that be family members, friends, or even in the workplace. I hope you enjoy this interview as much as I enjoy this topic!Find Andre:Book: https://a.co/d/0SHkPnYHighly Sensitive Refuge: https://highlysensitiverefuge.com/sensitive-book/ Please follow @poppyjamie and let me know your thoughts about the episode!A big thank you to our sponsors:Huel Black Edition is a high protein, nutritionally complete meal in a convenient shake.

On today's bonus episode of Unwind, we have the inspirational Cyndie Spiegel, who is the bestselling author of The Year of Positive Thinking that sold thousands of copies around the world. Cyndie is a world leading speaker on the subject of positive psychology and has written a new book to brighten our days even more. It's called Microjoys: Finding Hope (especially) When Life is Not Okay. We can all relate to those moments when life just feels overwhelming and finding hope can feel virtually impossible. And so this book is such a gift, every page is like a warm hug, and can help us all find a little bit of joy in everyday life. I'm thrilled to have Cyndie on the show today and can't wait to ask her how we can find genuine joy when rationally we know it's there, but subjectively we can't find it?

On the podcast this week I am speaking with the world renowned scientist and author, Bruce Lipton. Bruce is 78 years old and over his career has challenged the way the world understands the relationship between the mind, body and genetics. In the sixties, he discovered that genes were influenced by the outside environment. He noticed that genes behaved differently depending on what was happening around them. Up until then, it was thought that genes were destiny. This phenomena became known as epigenetics and Bruce has been one of the pioneering researchers and educators in this field for nearly 50 years. He has revolutionised the way er understand what causes our health outcomes and biology.Bruce is also a bestselling author and his books include The Biology of Belief and Spontaneous Evolution. These books have inspired a movement and encouraged people to rethink the way we understand the power of belief and the role in which consciousness shapes our lives.Find Bruce: Website: https://www.brucelipton.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/brucelipton/Books: https://www.brucelipton.com/books/Please follow @poppyjamie and let me know your thoughts about the episode!A big thank you to our sponsors:Huel Black Edition is a high protein, nutritionally complete meal in a convenient shake.
