p.s. psychologically speaking
Welcome to psychologically speaking, I use the same name for my blog and podcast, the blog features real life stories and short reflections explaining how our complex and beautiful brains work.
Take a peek behind the curtain of human behaviour and dissect the fascinating mechanisms that make us tick. The main blog is hosted over on substack, or click through on subject headings below, you don’t need to pay to access my writing but when you susbcribe you’ll be notified about new posts through substack. I try to write a new blog each month, but it does really depend on my research schedule and how up to date I am with reading all of the interesting articles in my saved folder! perhaps you can relate?
You’ll find links to all of my blog writing below and I cover topics like first impressions to the psychology of being moved to tears by art!, most of the articles have a voiceover option if you prefer to listen.
I’m on a learning journey with psychology, so dive in and share your thoughts and questions directly in the comments section. I can't wait to get curious with you!
Deeper dive on Imposter Phenomenon: My Imposter research looked at the experiences of entrepreneurs, it’s available in podcast format, with special guests. This podcast is for anyone who has ever wanted the ground to swallow them up whole or felt like they’ve blagged their way into a piece of work. If you want to understand why those experiences happen, and how we can use them to our advantage in our work then this podcast is for you.
Leaving things to the last minute
Moderate procrastination is good for creativity, but too much procrastination leads to a short blog. This week’s blog is a reminder that planned procrastination (it’s a thing!) is risky business.
