740. How Good Facilitation Changes Everything - With Myriam Hadnes 10/28/2025

740. How Good Facilitation Changes Everything - With Myriam Hadnes I talk with Myriam Hadnes about what good facilitation actually looks like, and why it matters now more than ever. We cut through the jargon and compare facilitation, coaching and training, then get practical about how you create learning that sticks. Myriam and I dig into nervous system overload, psychological safety, and why embodied practices outperform information-only approaches. We also cover difficult conversations, holding space for emotion, boundary-setting, and what facilitative training looks like in an era of AI and endless content. If you run groups, teach, or coach, this conversation offers concrete ways to help people learn deeper, stay regulated, and actually change their behaviour.

737. How To Build A Business That Actually Helps People - With Carlos Saba 10/07/2025

737. How To Build A Business That Actually Helps People - With Carlos Saba I sit down with Carlos to unpack a question every founder hears but few answer well: can a business genuinely do good and still be profitable? We map the Venn diagram of purpose and profit, talk about the kinds of people who join this game, and name the bad actors who make the whole idea look naïve. Carlos explains how scalable businesses can stay grounded in meaningful value, why shareholder-first thinking often fails culture and customers, and what practical signs tell you a company is truly doing good rather than selling a story. Expect concrete examples, a critique of easy metrics, and a few rules for building a startup that lasts.

732. What We Lose When We Stop Moving – with Erwan Le Corre I had the chance to sit down with Erwan Le Corre, one of the leading voices in natural movement. We dug into why movement matters far beyond fitness, how our bodies are designed for adaptability, and what we lose when we stop moving the way humans evolved to. Erwan also shares his passion for breath work, including his own record-breaking breath-hold training, and why breathing is just as fundamental as movement for resilience and health. We explore the difference between training for show and training for life, and how reconnecting with simple, natural practices can change the way you feel and perform every day. This was a rich, practical, and inspiring conversation for anyone interested in movement, breath, and living more fully in their body.

718. How To Rewire the Brain for Growth With Tiny Experiments – With Anne-Laure Le Cunff What if the key to personal growth wasn’t radical transformation—but tiny, consistent experiments? In this full-spectrum conversation, neuroscientist and Ness Labs founder Anne-Laure Le Cunff joins me to explore how to rewire our brains for curiosity, resilience, and sustainable growth. We talk about how our brains are hardwired for safety (and why that gets in the way of change), why embracing uncertainty is a learnable skill, and how to overcome the “insight trap” - where we understand a concept but still fail to apply it. Anne-Laure shares tools from her book Tiny Experiments, including how to approach daily life more scientifically, balance structure with flexibility, and develop an identity rooted in exploration - not perfection. We also touch on creativity, burnout, goal-setting, and the neuroscience behind procrastination and decision-making. Read more about Anne-Laure's work here: ----------------------------------------------- Dr Anne-Laure Le Cunff is the founder of Ness Labs and a neuroscientist at the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience, where she studies ADHD and the evolutionary neuroscience of curiosity.
