  • Conflicted, Confused, and Ready to Vote - Uncovering the discombobulated thoughts of the great undecided who will sway the election.

    We dive into the hidden forces in our minds that sway our decisions when we don't know how to decide. From Free Will to Confirmation Bias, Appearances and a Turn of Phrase. What doesn't matter and what could make all the difference in a voters mind.

    We cover:

    Where do our preferences come from

    How we shortcut confusing decisions into simple flawed decisions

    The impact of last-minute scandals

    What each side doesn't understand?

    The irrational nature of sensible people

    Who has been overlooked by politics and what are they thinking


    The 60th US election coming on November 5th between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump has been on the news non stop for a year. Finally, it will all be over and we can move on with our lives.

    13% of people remain undecided but with their vote being crucially important in an otherwise 50:50 race, the nuanced factors that sway their thinking have never been more important.

    Tune in to uncover the psychology of last-minute voters and the hidden mind games controlling the election.

  • We celebrate 'hard work" but forget to consider the benefits of thinking "hard thoughts".

    This episode teaches how to navigate uncertainty without taking easy options by building a capacity for complexity.

    Allow doubt to improve our decisions

    Understand multiple causes behind outcomes

    Reduce judgement of others

    Improve your field of vision

    Weight statistics properly

    Take ownership of forming opinion without using others

    Accept lower confidence and greater accuracy


    The mind is full of complexity and it relentlessly tries to optimise and take shortcuts. This serves is well in many aspects but cultivating a practice of taking the harder path in our thinking allows us to see hidden truths behind out assumptions.

    To arrive at better decisions we need to learn to balance uncertainty with statistics and see beyond our limited field of view. It isn't easy but the benefits can greatly improve your outcomes and your mindsets.

  • A lot of the self-improvement industry and advice is backwards. The more books we read the further away from our goals we become.

    Ultimately we want to be happier yet we are accruing more and more things to fix before we are happy with ourselves.

    In this episode, we explore the biggest paradoxes where the work we do can make us more brittle and breakable:


    Effortlessness Paradox - The harder we try the harder we make it

    Happiness Paradox - Pursuing Happiness instead chases it away

    Validation paradox - Seeking external validation prevents internal validation

    Emotions paradox - Suppressing emotions makes them overwhelm us

    The Shadow - Rejecting our flaws makes them worse

    Planning Paradox - Overplanning reduces adaptability

    Self-Improvement Paradox - The more things you find to fix the more broken you feel


    Searching and finding can be different things.

    We learn a more subtle approach to self-improvement that spends more time building wisdom and focusing on smaller immediately actionable steps with less chasing and running in circles.

    We find answers to the question "How do we balance the art of wanting to improve whilst also wanting to live in contentment in the present?"

  • The anti-hustle guide to finding a balance that maximises happiness through intention and wisdom.

    Optimising every second of your calendar to the nth degree isn't a recipe for dreamlike productivity, it's a collision course for anxiety-riddled burnout. In our era of ever more time demands what are we to do?

    Oliver Burkman in his book 4,000 week presents a guide to living as a human being in a messy and demanding environment that allows you to prioritise what's essential in a calm and rational manner. The key is to not forget what else is important in a life well lived besides productive output.
    We can't be everywhere and do everything but anything we do commit to takes from the things we don't. Growing old and missing out on a bunch of important non-urgent life goals is not where you want to end up.

    This episode discusses the 7 best lessons of wisdom from Oliver Burkmen's book along with some advice from Psychology and Sam's own experiences.

  • Stop Chasing the Self-Improvement Treadmill - Learn to focus on making the world a better place.

    We are drowning in self-improvement content to make us wealthier, wiser, more productive sexier versions of ourselves. Yet at the same time, it seems like humanity is going backwards.

    What gives?

    In the modern-day obsession with ourselves, we are missing out on the bigger picture of how to lead an impactful life that genuinely touches those around us. Yet if we want to be the most impactful version of ourselves that requires us to improve those around us.

    This episode zooms into lessons from our cell biology and how we are wired to learn and connect and zooms out to how human organisations and societies operate. By building a deeper understanding of reality through looking at the micro and macro, we find the fundamental lessons we need.

  • Conscious experience is a result of our awareness, but how do we take back our free will from external drivers?

    This episode explores the links between the conscious experience and what Free will really is. Building on that we explore how the body deals with pain and negative emotions and how we can learn to carve free will, awareness and control into our day-to-day lives.

    Dr Stephen Porges is the father of Polyvagal Theory and how the body perceives threat and safety. His lessons are crucial for how humans connect, learn and exist and build the fundamental concepts to understand emotional intelligence.

  • Let's talk about Power Moves - Lethal Combinations of traits that can unlock your full potential

    Most of us have strengths and with each strength is a corresponding weakness.
    Says who?

    History has shown time and time again that embodying seemingly contradictory traits can result in outsized success.

    We look at the weaknesses we accept and how to overcome the fixed mindset, break out of our natural blockers, and become a spikey, unbalanced individual with additive strengths.

    Balancing lessons from history and psychology we go on a tour of the most common and powerful opposing strengths that can be turned into an unstoppable combination when harnessed correctly. We also explore:

    How to identify your ideal strength combination

    Tools to work on weaknesses from different angles

    How neurodiversity and personality disorders can be harnessed as strengths

    Embracing instead of fighting your weaknesses

  • A masterclass on our hidden mindsets and diagnosing the real problems behind our internal blockers.

    Your mind lies to you about what you can and can't do and creates infinitely logical reasons to hide your real fears.

    To overcome the real blockers in achieving our goals, we need to spend less time diagnosing external problems and more time understanding what's happening inside us. Humans are ultimately driven by underlying fear and desire, coming up with reasons that ignore this is hiding the truth.

    We explore the 4 core fears behind our everyday decisions and actions so we can unburden ourselves from limitations:

    Fear of Failure - Operating in survival mode

    Fear of Uncertainty - The silent killer of dreams

    Fear of Embarrassment - Appearance problems

    Fear of Success - The unexpected fear


    Webster explores how these fears are deeply entrenched in a fixed mindset, making them appear more rational than they are. Learn practical strategies to convert these fears into opportunities for growth, transform your mindset, and take bold steps toward your true potential.

    In summary, a powerful and practical guide to overcoming the psychological barriers that hold you back.

  • Anxiety is built into all our brains, examining the role of trauma in building fear responses helps us understand how to combat fear. We can also learn how trauma manifests in General Anxiety Disorder, Borderline (BPD), Narcissism (NPD) and ADHD.

    By studying the neuroscience of how fear and anxiety work in the brain we understand how life events and trauma shape our perceptions. To overcome the different fears we can learn from strategies required for individuals with specific disorders relating to fear to reduce their emotional reactions.

    Fear is controlled by 4 main areas in the brain, the Amygdala, the hippocampus, the Pre-Frontal Cortex and the Hypothalamus. They can keep us healthy, alive, and functioning normally. But different life events can cause them to become impaired or over-active in subtle ways causing much greater levels of fear and irrational behaviours.

    The episode explores how fears hold us back and the specific chemistry and biology to creates it and techniques we can learn to rebalance our brain towards more rational thinking and level responses.

    Tune in to learn how understanding fear can help you master your own mind and improve your life.

    Many people hate time, it is a constant enemy we fight against. Yet it is simply a continuous element of the Universe that we can't change.

    This episode expands on several psychological phenomena to help you build a better relationship with time:

    Live a life that feels longer, richer and deeper

    Reframe feelings of anxiety

    Build your ability to focus, be productive, and do your best work
