Itâs hard to move on social media these days without bumping into a post on gratitude. If youâre wondering what all the fuss is about, this weekâs classic interview with Chester Elton, âthe apostle of appreciationâ, is for you.
According to Chester, gratitude cuts to the heart of who we really are. Gratitude exists at an emotional level and is about WHO is in our lives, WHAT we find meaningful and HOW we live. If we make time for gratitude, we can find a way to live that makes everything less stressful.
Chester and Andrew also discuss the ways we can build gratitude into everyday life, adding meaning and lightness to our daily routines.
Chester Elton has carried out extensive research into how gratitude can help us lead in the workplace. His books, co-authored with Adrian Gostick, include Leading With Gratitude and All In: How the Best Managers Create a Culture of Belief and Drive Big Results.

Do we need a complete rethink of the rituals we use to mark the end of life? This week Andrew talks to undertaker and author RU CALLENDER about what heâs learnt over the course of his career.
Ru Callender became an undertaker in order to offer people a more honest experience than the stilted formality of traditional âVictorianâ funerals. Driven by raw emotion and the unresolved grief of losing his own parents, Ru brought an outsider, âDIYâ ethos to the business of death.
Ru has carried coffins across windswept beaches, sat in pubs with caskets on beer-stained tables, helped children fire flaming arrows into their fatherâs funeral pyre, turned modern occult rituals into performance art and, with the band members of the KLF, is building the Peopleâs Pyramid of bony bricks in Liverpool â all in the name of creating truly authentic experiences that celebrate those who are no longer here and those who remain.

Matthew Fray is the author of the viral article âMy Wife Divorced Me Because I Left the Dishes By the Sinkâ. His divorce left him emotionally crushed: struggling not to cry all the time, and finding it hard even to breathe.
In this reissued classic episode, Andrew and Matthew talk about the lessons of Matthewâs failed marriage, and about how Matthew is using his own experiences in his coaching work with men experiencing relationship difficulties.
According to Matthew, âthe things that destroy our relationships work like cancerâŠby the time we detect the problem, itâs already too lateâ. His work is based around helping men to see the problems earlier, and to build the emotional toolkit so many of them are missing.
Matthew Fray works as a relationship coach and writer. He blogs at On the Rocks, and his latest book is This is How Your Marriage Ends: A Hopeful Approach to Saving Relationships.

âMidlife is when those dreams we had when we were young but put aside to earn a living or raise a family can finally be revisited; itâs never too late to be what you wanted to beâ.
This is the philosophy of Noon, a community for women in midlife created by Eleanor Mills. Eleanor experienced her own reckoning with midlife after leaving her job with the Sunday Times, confronting an empty nest and dealing with Covid. She embarked on a journey to explore new ways of living and find her ânext actâ.
In this classic episode, Eleanor and Andrew discuss shifting your perspective on midlife and seeing it as a space without a map. Unlike your twenties, thirties and even forties, there are few expectations around family and career, meaning you can chart your own way and be what youâve always wanted to be.
If youâre feeling lost or alone after decades of putting other people first, or are exhausted dealing with midlife stresses like divorce, bereavement, redundancy, difficult teens, elderly parents or health problems, then this is the episode for you.
Eleanor Mills is a British journalist who has worked for titles including The Sunday Times and The Times. She was the editorial director of The Sunday Times and editor of its magazine until March 2020. Eleanor is also the founder of https://www.noon.org.uk and inherspace.co.uk

Is there an uncomfortable gap between your life goals and the way you are actually living? Do you tell yourself what you want is financial security, but then rack up big online shopping debts? Or perhaps a solid, connected relationship is your goal, but instead you're prioritising work and ignoring your partnerâs needs.
This week, counselor and author Thais Gibson joins me to talk about SELF-SABOTAGE. According to Thais, self-sabotage arises from your subconscious, which wants something very different than your conscious mind is telling you. To move forward, youâll need to uncover and challenge the patterns that are keeping you stuck.
Thais Gibson is a counsellor, best-selling author and co-founder of The Personal Development School. She has a Ph.D. and over 13 certifications in modalities ranging from CBT, NLP, somatic experiencing, internal family systems, to shadow work and hypnosis. Thais had nearly a decade of experience running a successful private practice and founded The Personal Development School, an online learning platform, to provide a more accessible, authentic way for clients to transform their lives.

In this classic episode, Andrew speaks with coach and teacher Dena Justice about the work she does with women experiencing burnout in their careers and relationships.
Despite loving her career, Dena hit a point where she felt empty - she was a classic case of a high performer and leader hitting burnout. That led her to choose a powerful pivot out of conventional employment and into her own business.
At the same time, Dena also consciously decided to up-level ALL of her relationships, including spending 3 years intentionally single so she could identify and change the patterns she was repeating that were contributing to relationship dissatisfaction.
Combining all of her experience, Dena now helps other women who are high performers hitting burnout and are scared to admit theyâve hit a plateau or a wall. She helps them get out of their own way and move to the next level to increase their impact so they feel fulfilled and inspired again, as well as helping them create the relationships they want in their lives.
Dena Justice is a coach, mentor and teacher. She is the creator of The Ecstatic Collective. Denaâs lifelong interest in mentoring and coaching began at age seven, when she took her first social-emotional training program. At 15, she taught her first personal development course. She has undertaken years of training in conflict management and mediation, leadership, communication, facilitation, and has two Masterâs degrees.

Can the ancient teachings of Zen Buddhism help us engage with the challenges work, family and relationships throw our way? Teacher, author and Zen Buddhist priest Peter Coyote believes that they can: his new book, Zen in the Vernacular: Things As It Is, argues that Zen can be both a creative problem-solving mechanism and a moral guide; ideal for the stresses and problems we face day-to-day.
Andrew and Peter discuss:
How Peter found Buddhism and became a Zen Buddhist priest. Why Buddhism ISNâT about turning away from the world.Why we need more than just âself-helpâ.How Zen Buddhism helps us engage with the suffering we see in the world.The importance of meditation.The usefulness of Buddhist teachings like The Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path.Peter Coyote is an award-winning actor, narrator, and Zen teacher. He is recognized for his acting in 160 films including E.T., Outrageous Fortune, Bitter Moon and Cross Creek, and his narration work in over 140 documentaries. He narrated the PBS series The Pacific Century, winning an Emmy Award, as well as fourteen Ken Burns documentaries, including The Roosevelts, for which he won a second Emmy. In 2011 he was ordained as a Zen Buddhist priest and in 2015 received âtransmissionâ from his teacher, making him an independent Zen teacher who has ordained his own priests. His latest book is Zen in the Vernacular: Things As It Is, and he is also the author of several volumes of poetry.

Many couples come to me complaining of a dissatisfying love life: some are in a low-sex or no-sex relationship, while others experience sex as boring and mechanical. In this episode, Diana Richardson shares her âSlow Sexâ program, and suggests how you can create a more loving sexual partnership, well into old age.
We discuss:
Tantric sex, love and sexual fulfilment.How to make sex a conscious decision, not an accidental encounter How slowness increases sensitivity and awakens the bodyâs innate mechanism for ecstasy The healing spiritual power of slow sex.Diana Richardson is considered one of todayâs leading authorities on human sexuality, and she is known as the pioneer of Slow Sex. She has written eight books on how a person can experience a more fulfilling sex and love life.
Born in South Africa in 1954, she first qualified as a lawyer and then trained as a massage therapist in the UK. Her interest in the body and healing prompted an intense personal exploration into the union of sex and meditation - the essence of Tantra. Since 1993, together with her partner, Michael, she has been sharing her insights and experiences with couples who travel from many different parts of the world to participate in their informative and life changing âMaking Loveâ Retreats in Switzerland.

In this classic episode, Tim and Andrew discuss the layers that go into a joke. What exactly is it that weâre doing when we laugh at ourselves and our own life? Humour can be about storytelling, making sense of the past, finding honesty and creating meaning. It can be a defence mechanism, and a form of self-protection for the intensely shy.
Timâs readers have watched him move from the chaos of working and parenting younger children to a different stage of midlife. The column has changed, and so has everyone featured in it. Andrew and Tim discuss new hobbies, the relaxation that can come with being older, and the boundaries that need to go up when writing about family for so long.

As children we were probably taught that being selfish was a great evil, to be avoided at all costs. Jungian analyst and author Bud Harris, however, feels that âsacred selfishnessâ can be a path to genuine self-love, forgiveness and the wholeness we crave.
In this episode, Andrew and Bud discuss
How to value ourselves and live meaningful lives we love.How to become authentic humans, who give back vitality and hope to others.How to love others without losing ourselves.What true self-love and self-forgiveness mean.Bud Harris, PhD, is one of the most prolific Jungian authors of our time. He has authored and co-authored over 20 books, and has been in the field of Jungian psychology for more than 40 years. After an early career in business, he experienced a call to become a Jungian analyst, and moved to Zurich, Switzerland, for his training. Now in his 80s, he lives and practices in North Carolina.

Some of us try our best never to think about death, while some of us âlive in deathâs basementâ. Composer, academic and psychoanalyst Paul Attinello lived through the suffering and loss of the AIDS epidemic of the 1980s. After testing positive for HIV/AIDS, he built a creative and achievement-filled life, over which death nevertheless always loomed.
Then, the advent of lifesaving medications changed everything. Paul had to define a whole new relationship with mortality, as well as experiencing a profound sense of loss for what life might have been like without the spectre of HIV/AIDS.
In this reissued classic episode, Andrew and Paul discuss music, psychoanalysis, and the different ways humans live with the knowledge of their own mortality.
Paul Attinello is an academic and psychoanalyst based in Newcastle Universityâs International Centre for Music Studies. He also taught at the University of Hong Kong and UCLA, living and working on four continents in the past three decades.
