Hi there and a very warm welcome to Season 5 Episode 57 of People Soup – it’s Ross McIntosh here. P Soupers - it's part 3B of our mini series - my new collaboration with Dr Richard MacKinnon from WorkLifePsych - where we delve into all things related to psychological flexibility and ACT. We're aiming to show you how relevant it is - not only to your work life, but your whole life. In part 3B we get practical with cognitive defusion sharing techniques and insights - and we cover factory conveyor belts, sushi restaurants, tiresome cousins, being a bus driver and talking about the role of the caution calculator. We share really practical techniques and skills to allow you to relate differently to your thoughts, freeing up you energy and attention to enable you to move towards what matters in life. People Soup is an award winning podcast where we share evidence based behavioural science, in a way that’s practical, accessible and fun. We're all about sharing the ingredients for a better work life from behavioural science and beyond. There is a transcript for each episode . There is a caveat - this transcript is largely generated by Artificial Intelligence, I have corrected many errors but I won't have captured them all!
