The You Project

This somewhat verbose edition of the show has been divided in two, for your own good. I don't want you consuming to much sugar in one sitting. You're welcome. This chat really covers a lot of territory, moving from Patrick's dating life, his pasty vegan complexion and his curious habit of watching scrolling works of art on his TV, to earth-ending asteroids, losing muscle in space, stand-up desks, shitty posture, fitness app obsession and out-of-warranty fridges. Enjoy. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hi Team, I am tied up with PhD commitments today, so we’re revisiting my favourite episode with Dr. Marc. See you tomorrow with a new ep. *Dr. Marc Cohen prescribes cuddling, laughing, lying on the floor with your dog, yoga, dancing, barefoot walking, writing poetry, sunshine and every now and then, if there’s no other option, he prescribes a drug. Marc is a registered medical practitioner with degrees in western medicine, physiology and psychological medicine along with PhDs in Chinese medicine and biomedical engineering. He’s a doctor three times over. Literally. In 2002 he became Australia’s first Professor of Complementary Medicine and Head of the Department of Complementary Medicine at RMIT University, which was by far the largest such department in the country with around 100 staff and 1000 students. He has spent more than 30 years practicing and researching holistic health and published more than 100 peer-reviewed scientific papers and many books and technical texts on wellness and natural medicine. He is one of Australia’s pioneers of integrative and holistic medicine and has made significant impacts on education, research, clinical practice and policy.

Sometimes it’s a good idea to put our habits, behaviours, decisions, daily rituals and outcomes under the metaphoric microscope, in order to identify what’s working for us, and what’s not. This episode is a chat about that.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dr. Cam McDonald is back and this was hands-down my favourite chat with him. You know when you get in that space (flow state) where time bends (seemingly) and you look up and an hour has just evaporated in what felt like, ten minutes? Well this conversation was that, for me. *BIO: Dr Cam is a leader, educator, PhD scholar and internationally recognised speaker on personalised and precision health. As a key executive and education leader at Precision Health Alliance - his mission is to eliminate chronic disease and pain by 2050, and having 'healthy' and ‘resilient' as the norm. Dr Cam is an exercise physiologist, accredited practising dietitian, PhD Scholar, a Fellow of the Australasian Society of Lifestyle Medicine, an experienced clinician and is an international leader in the application of personalised health, epigenetics. Other than that, he's a dud. Enjoy. shae.group/dr-cam-mcdonaldSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hi Team. I’m under the pump with work, so today is a re-share of one of my favourite interviews, with Dr. Beau Lotto. This was a fascinating and informative chat and here’s the original blurb. *Dr. Beau Lotto is a neuroscientist and world-renowned expert in perception. His research explores the ways in which we experience the world through our own versions of reality. As Beau says, "the brain never sees the world as it actually is, only the world that is useful to see." By illuminating these principles of perception he has helped individuals and companies transform their approach to creativity and innovation. Beau is also the founder of the world’s first neuro-design studio, Lab of Misfits. Part lab, part creative studio, Lab of Misfits takes a disruptive approach to research, partnering with brands to blend science, art and performance to explore pivotal principles in current culture. Their "experiential experiments" invite consumers to engage with brands and offer brands science-backed insights that foster innovation. beaulotto.comSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The bloke who hates (the field of) Psychology but (curiously) keeps talking about human behaviour is back, and this time Gillespo and I chat about the science of first impressions, the dangers of making hasty decisions, who we should trust and how slowly, psychopath-proofing our decisions, when snap judgements are okay, how psychopaths are (surprisingly) good at understanding how others think and feel (they just don't care), and lots more.
