In today’s Wildr Wellness podcast, Laura sits down with Samantha Tomkinson, performance and organisational psychologist, facilitator and coach.
Samantha is all about getting to understand that crazy thing we call our ~ mind ~ 🧠She works with groups and with people one-to-one to improve their emotional intelligence and build resilience.
If you’re interested in understanding your mind, then this podcast will not only help you with that - but also Samantha provides some great, easy, practical strategies and tools for building emotional intelligence and finding peace in this crazy world (as I am constantly reminding myself - the only thing we truly have control over is our internal landscape… And our own actions).
We chat about ->
- Samantha’s journey - how did she first become interested in psychology?.
- Pyschometrics (psychological measuring tools) can be a great ‘entry route’ for people beginning to do the emotional work but the step beyond that Samantha recommends, is REALLY getting to know yourself.
- She defines thoughts, feelings and emotions and distinguishes the difference between them
- HOW to move out of the ‘thinking mind’ into ‘feeling’
- Resilience - why ‘pushing through’ isn’t actually showing true resilience - it’s tough mindedness.
- Emotional Intelligence - what is it and why is it useful? How we can improve our emotional intelligence via the thinking, feeling, energetic doorways.
- Personal Values - what are they and where to start with building them for yourself - and how can they be useful?!
- Samantha’s incredible and profound learning from her relationship with her mother
- Where to start!? Samantha provides three simple and practical tools to get started on your journey.
