Understandably, there’s a growing concern that AI could be the beginning of the end for our cognitive function, creativity, and IQ. My opinion is that we shouldn’t worry but we should be cautious and aware. There’s a big distinction between using AI to outsource our thinking and using it as a collaborative tool (one that’s in our control, not the other way round) to improve performance, efficiency and outcomes in different, contexts, tasks and capacities. We explore this and lots more in this instalment TYP.

It seems that people are becoming addicted to more and more things. But are they actual addictions in the context of some of the more recognisable and familiar addictions (drugs, booze, gambling, porn)? Or, are they ‘mere’ obsessions, compulsions or disorders that also lead to poor, and sometimes devastating, personal outcomes? Is there a line? If so, what is it, and where is it? This is a complicated topic and conversation, but at the very least, we had an interesting chat about it. Enjoy.

This episode is all about body awareness, mind awareness (metacognition), creating a personal operating system, the space between discipline and obsession, self-regulation and self-actualisation (becoming who and how we want to be), owning up to our BS without the self-condemnation and lots more. Enjoy.

We’ve done a few Q&A sessions before, but this might just be my favourite. We explored vast territory with a lot of great and diverse questions from you, our listeners. A quick snapshot of what we covered.. If my self-perception changed doing a PhD. Music and emotions. My advice on supporting our much-loved oldies. Voluntary assisted dying. My diet. Dealing with dad‘s death. Self talk. Asymmetrical bodies. Who inspires me. What shapes us to be who we are. Nervous system regulation. And lots more. And yes, this is a two part-er.
