Deep insights. Simply put
Carefully curated. Deeply researched. Free of ads and shackles.
There are brilliant content producers with the finger on the pulse. So we won’t regurgitate the news just to keep up with the crowd, except if the news needs an urgent second opinion. And this is not a rarity. We take our time to see through commercial biases, and noodle on the nuances behind the headlines. Always in an easily digestible form. An individual human may be pear-shaped but is never bell-shaped - meaning, statistical evidence for whole populations may not fit well with you if you’re an edge case or working in extremes. Like many of our patients. While on the programme or alumni membership we’ll take the topics you ask us about and tailor what it means to those like you. And while we use AI tools to help us search and type faster, rest assured, we don’t rely on anyone except the experts.

Go big or go home, all or nothing, now or never thinking are also a recipe for failure. Behavioural change is not just about willpower and motivation - they don’t work and that has been proven by multiple studies.
Successful behavioural change centres around making small, consistent and achievable changes and then ensuring that we fully celebrate the win. Creating positive emotions around changes leads to better success. It may sound silly to celebrate our wins but that link to positivity leads us to want to continually recreate that winning formula.
And because change is hard, we need to make new habits easy.
What about reframing and adding in new habits or changes instead of depriving yourself or taking away your pleasures?
Here are a few ideas…
