Jamil Qureshi, Elizabeth Day, Matthew Syed, Anna Hemmings, Steve Peteres, Mo Gawdat, Stephen Bartlett
This session deconstructs the limitations of chasing "finding your passion" while establishing that consistent decision-making and a growth mindset, rather than fleeting emotion, drive long-term success. The dialogue introduces Professor Steve Peters' "Chimp Model" to explain emotional regulation during crisis and defines happiness through the equation of perception versus expectation, urging leaders to foster resilience by praising effort over innate talent. To apply these psychological principles in business and personal life, the host emphasizes shifting from fragile self-esteem to "committed acceptance" of chaos, a theme central to upcoming episodes featuring high-profile guests and practical strategies for sustainable change.

I Won 11 World Titles Because They Said I Couldn't: Anna Hemmings MBE | E65
Anna Hemmings, Stephen Bartlett
Eleven-time champion kayaker Anna Hemmings overcame early physical skepticism and a debilitating 2003 Chronic Fatigue Syndrome diagnosis to return for the Beijing 2008 Olympics by utilizing vulnerability to rebuild human connection. Following her athletic career, she now leads "Beyond the Barriers," a consultancy where she coaches leaders to dismantle limiting beliefs and foster resilient team cultures through "healthy conflict" and growth mindset strategies. Her approach integrates specific mental techniques, such as reverse therapy for emotional recovery and a "bank of memories" for confidence, to help professionals unlock potential in high-stakes environments.
