“I Can Read Your Mind” - Transforming & Breaking Free of Beliefs - Kute Blackson

Dr. Ellen Langer is a legend in the field of psychology. And a legend at Harvard University. She’s the longest-serving professor of psychology at Harvard. She was also the first woman to ever be tenured in psychology at the university. Her 40+ year career has earned her the nicknames “the mother of mindfulness” and “the mother of positive psychology.”Until starting Tiger Therapy, I always thought self-doubt was an enemy to be vanquished. But Dr. Langer is another academic who has shared that self-doubt is important. In fact, she says, if you don’t feel self-doubt, you might be being mindless. Research shows that most of us are mindless most of the time, but Dr. Langer believes that if we can work towards being more mindful it will help us tremendously in almost every facet of life. Her groundbreaking research has found that we can quite literally think ourselves younger, healthier and better - as well as totally changing our relationship with self-doubt. (By the way - mindfulness is NOT to be mistaken for mediation.)This episode is full of the most mind-blowing studies, experiments and stories that have the power to change how you think about how you think. Thank you Dr. Langer for coming on Tiger Therapy!______---- Taking a short (baby related!) break ----This is the last episode in Tiger Therapy Season 4. There have been 34 episodes so far with absolutely brilliant guests - I can't thank them enough for sharing their wisdom and stories about times where self-doubt and limiting beliefs got in the way. And thank you so much to everyone who's been listening along. I'm going on maternity leave, but Tiger Therapy will be back in early 2025. I can't wait!______Dr. Ellen Langer’s latest book The Mindful Body: Thinking Our Way to Chronic Health. ______Social media: Pippa Woodhead | @pippa.woodheadTigerhall Ellen Langer | @ellenjlanger Hosted on Acast.

How do you think you’d handle it if you failed at the one thing you’re supposed to be best at, on live TV, with the whole world watching? Lindsey Jacobellis is the most successful female snowboarder of all time.She is a two-time Olympic Gold medalist, an Olympic Silver medalist, a 31x World Cup Gold Medalist and a 6x World Champion.Despite so much success, something happened in her early career that’s followed her ever since - a split-second mistake made at her first ever Olympics when she was just 20 years old. This defining moment led to public ridicule, a media circus and even hate mail. It’s something that (understandably) shook her confidence and left her full of self-doubt. She’s had to actively fight to not let it define her. I’m so excited to have her on Tiger Therapy to share her story and share what she learned with you. Thank you Lindsey!_______Social media: Pippa Woodhead | @pippa.woodheadTigerhall @Lindseyjacobellis Hosted on Acast.

Me: "Does anyone ever bother lying to you?"Chase Hughes: "You'd be surprised."I was genuinely so excited to speak to Chase Hughes, until about an hour before our interview when my excitement turned to nerves...I don't know about you, but I'm not sure I love the idea that someone can look at my face and know exactly what I'm thinking - which is precisely what Chase can do, being the no.1 behaviour and body language expert in the world. Chase is a neuroscientist, military veteran, bestselling author and star of YouTube's The Behaviour Panel (which if you haven't ever seen - I highly recommend). He used to train CIA operatives on how to negotiate, interrogate, and read people for extreme persuasion. He now teaches the same skills to business people. He will be the first to tell you that getting a handle on your own mind is key to doing this well. If you feel self-doubt, your confidence is shaky or if you feel fear - this will show on your face.Chase has spent over 20 years (and millions of US government money) to develop how best to train someone as quickly as possible how to master their mind and get over limiting beliefs - and he tells us how to do it in this episode of Tiger Therapy. His advice is extraordinary (and something people normally pay him thousands for).Thanks so much Chase for the fascinating conversation - I have a feeling this will be an episode I'll want to listen to again and again! _______Learn more about Chase via his website here._______Social media: Pippa Woodhead | @pippa.woodheadTigerhall @chasehughesofficial Hosted on Acast.

Very few people’s lives are destined to be made into a movie… but I would put money on this real-life rags to riches story finding its way to Hollywood soon enough. From growing up in the slums in the Philippines… to Harvard, Wall Street, Microsoft and now the first female president of Utah Valley University, Astrid Tuminez has lived and worked all over the world, speaks multiple languages and is all in all an extraordinary person.She says “Nobody can stop you from dreaming about where you want to be, and what you want to do with your life.”In this week’s episode Astrid and I discuss the power of the mind, magical thinking, overcoming self-doubt and feeling like an outsider. After our recording I decided she was probably the most impressive person I’ve ever spoken to.

I thought I knew a fair bit about imposter syndrome until I spoke to this week’s guest, Dr. Lisa Orbé-Austin.Lisa is a psychologist and imposter syndrome expert, with two bestselling books to her name (co-written with her husband, Dr. Richard Orbé-Austin). She earned her PhD in Counseling Psychology from Columbia University, she has contributed to academic journals with her research on imposter syndrome, and her views are regularly sought by the media - she has appeared on The Today Show, Good Morning America, NBC News, and in outlets such as Forbes, Huffington Post and Business Insider.If you’ve ever thought to yourself “I’m not good enough”, “Don’t mess up or everyone will think you suck” or ““Everything I’ve ever achieved was through luck,” then this conversation is for you.Lisa takes us through the research, debunks and clarifies common imposter syndrome myths, and (crucially!) explains how you can start getting past feeling this way.I LOVED this conversation - thanks so much Lisa for coming on Tiger Therapy!_______Dr. Lisa Orbé-Austin’s books:Own Your Greatness: Overcome Imposter Syndrome, Beat Self-Doubt, and Succeed in Life Your Unstoppable Greatness: Break Free from Imposter Syndrome, Cultivate Your Agency, and Achieve Your Ultimate Career Goals_______Social media: Pippa Woodhead | @pippa.woodheadTigerhall Dr. Lisa Orbé-Austin | @drorbeaustin  Hosted on Acast.

Have you ever felt like you’re trying to “keep it together” at work? Showing emotions in the office is often seen as taboo. It’s “unprofessional.” But… sleep is the only thing we do in our lives more than work. Isn’t it a shame that we spend so much of our lives pretending? 60% of people are emotionally detached at work. 19% of people are miserable.What gives?This week’s Tiger Therapy guest is Mollie Rogers Jean De Dieu, GM at Longchamp, and author of Emotional Inclusion: A Humanizing Revolution at Work. Mollie argues that ‘Emotional Inclusion’ (a term she coined) is what’s missing from our workplaces. If we focused more on being emotionally inclusive, she argues, it would have a transformative impact on employee wellness and productivity. Thank you Mollie for coming on Tiger Therapy!_______Social media: Pippa Woodhead | @pippa.woodheadTigerhall Mollie Rogers Jean De Dieu Hosted on Acast.

Welcome to Season 4 of Tiger Therapy!!!_____“We are all stuck in a web. Every one of us is conditioned and caught up in a system that we cannot see.” I first learned about Elise in early 2020 when The Goop Lab came out on Netflix. There she was, side-by-side with Gwyneth Paltrow, discussing innovative health experiments they would all be trying as part of the show. I remember thinking “Chief Content Officer at Goop… what a cool job.” Fast forward and I’ve now been following Elise for a few years, I’ve seen her transition from Goop to being an incredible podcaster and author - FIVE of her books have been New York Times bestsellers.So now I think she has an even cooler job.Her latest book - ‘On Our Best Behavior: The Price Women Pay to Be Good’, an analysis of how history and culture have shaped how women see themselves, was an instant NYT bestseller. As Tiger Therapy is all about the ways we hold ourselves back - through self-doubt and limiting beliefs, so much of the book struck a chord. When you listen you’ll understand why. By the way, this conversation isn’t just for women. I truly encourage everyone to listen as it will really make you think about how our upbringing and society systems condition us all. Thank you so much Elise for coming on Tiger Therapy. _______Social media: Pippa Woodhead | @pippa.woodheadTigerhall Elise Loehnen Hosted on Acast.

A good friend of mine has worked in a particular sector for most of her career. From the outside she’s one of those people who’s life looks perfect. But more recently over a series of honest talks, she’s confided in me that she hates her job. Has done for years. Naturally I’ve asked, “why don’t you do something else?” She explained that there were a couple of big things keeping her stuck. Firstly, she doesn’t know what she wants to do instead. (Kind of a problem).The other big thing is that she’s overwhelmed with self-doubt at the idea of making a big change. She’s been doing what she’s been doing for so long, that at least she knows she’s good at it. It feels terrifying to walk away from.This week on Tiger Therapy, I’m speaking to world authority on career transitions, who has been named one of the most influential business thinkers in the world.Herminia Ibarra is Professor of Organisational Behaviour at London Business School. She also spent years teaching at INSEAD and Harvard Business School. Her career has been spent researching leadership, women’s advancement, and career transitions. Her latest book Working Identity: Unconventional Strategies for Reinventing Your Career, explores why so many people get stuck, why career-pivots feel so hard, and what to do about it.If you’ve ever dreamed of starting again - this one’s for you. Thanks so much, Herminia for coming on Tiger Therapy!_______You can learn more about Herminia and buy her book here. _______Social media: Pippa Woodhead | @pippa.woodheadTigerhall Herminia Ibarra  Hosted on Acast.

Kute Blackson says he can read your mind just by looking at your life. Our beliefs, he says, become our reality.
