Hi there and a very warm welcome to Season 6 Episode 5 of People Soup it's Ross McIntosh here.

You've just heard Professor Ross White reading the preface to his book - "The Tree That Bends". In this episode we continue our chat and Ross' People Soup ingredients are thriving, psychological flexibility, tree wisdom, relentlessness, resetting and cultural architects. You'll hear Ross response to my review and how Hooke's Law from our A Level physics lesson can be applied to humans at work. I'm also on a personal mission to see if we can get the #BeMoreTree trending.

For those of you who are new to People Soup - welcome - it's great to have you here - I aim to provide you with ingredients for a better work life from behavioural science and beyond. For those of you who are regular P Soupers - thanks for tuning in - we love it that you're part of our community.


There is a transcript for each episode. There is a caveat - this transcript is largely generated by Artificial Intelligence, I have corrected many errors but I won't have captured them all! You can also find the shownotes by clicking on notes thenkeep scrolling for all the useful links.

Find out more about the Thriving with Psychological Flexibility Course I'll be facilitating with Dr Richard MacKinnon.
