The Better Humans Project

A series of Podcasts that look at aspects of life on The Pale Blue Dot (aka our planet Earth). Thoughtful and thought-provoking, always looking to stimulate thought and to start a conversation. Stories and experiences from my life mixed with observations on life. Sometimes dark sometimes uncomfortable, often raw and honest. Questions are posed but not always answered. Much is looked at though the lens of the concept of our planet being just a Pale Blue Dot in space. This concept was originated by Author and Astronomer, the late Carl Sagan, and is based on a picture taken by the Voyager 1 Spacecraft that showed our planet as just a tiny pale blue dot caught in a ray of light. It highlighted the insignificance of us on a universal scale, and is a way of putting some of our behaviours into a perspective of our true place in the Universe. Lessons learned and lessons not learned, personal experiences, life observations. Hoping to make people reach out, start a conversation and to think a bit more about themselves and their behaviours.

  Episode #45 - Was it a Life Worth Living? Talking about measuring "success".

  Aug 15, 202633 minS0

  <p>What would make your life feel genuinely worthwhile — not impressive, not successful by someone else's measure, but truly worthwhile?</p> <p>It's one of the oldest questions a person can ask. And most of us are answering it with a scorecard we never consciously chose.</p> <p>In this episode of The Better Humans Project, Greg Pfeiffer takes that question seriously. We look at where our life yardsticks actually come from — family, culture, advertising, social media — and whether they have anything to do with what we genuinely value. We explore the psychological dangers of life assessment: the distortion of consta...

  Jul 19, 202631 minS0

  <p>What if the most radical thing you could do for your wellbeing isn't another habit, another goal, or another optimisation — but simply slowing down?</p> <p>In this episode of The Better Humans Project, Greg Pfeiffer explores the art and science of living at a slower pace. We go into the psychology of why we're all rushing, what it's doing to our brains and bodies, and what genuine slowness can give us back.</p> <p>We cover the neuroscience of chronic urgency, the busyness-as-status trap, the warning signals of depletion, the physical and social benefits of a slower life, th...

  Jul 4, 202627 minS0

  <p>What if the most important kind of intelligence has nothing to do with IQ?</p> <p>In this episode of The Better Humans Project, Greg Pfeiffer goes deep on Emotional Intelligence — what it really is, why the science says it matters more than almost anything else for your relationships, your career, and your mental health, and how you can actually develop it.</p> <p>We cover:</p> <p>→ The real definition of EI (and why it's not just about being nice)</p> <p>→ The neuroscience of the amygdala hijack — and how to interrupt it</p> <p>→ The three major psychologi...

  Episode #42 - The Pursuit of Happiness, Part 4 - The Personal and Individual Perspective

  Jun 20, 202637 minS0

  <p >We made it. The final chapter.</p> <p >Across this series we've explored happiness through the lens of psychology, spirituality, and biology. Today, in Part Four, we bring it all home — through the most important lens of all: you.</p> <p >Because no framework, no tradition, and no neuroscientist can tell you what happiness looks like for your specific, individual, irreplaceable life. That part is yours to discover. And that is exactly what today is about.</p> <p >Host Greg Pfeiffer explores your happiness story — the moments you've had it, lost it, and searched for it. The things that make...

  Episode #41 - The Pursuit of Happiness, Part 3 - The Medical and Biological Perspective

  Jun 13, 202643 minS0

  <p >Your happiness has a chemistry. A biology. A physiology that is measurable, mappable — and to a significant degree, influenceable.</p> <p >In Part Three of The Pursuit of Happiness series, host Greg Pfeiffer takes us into the science of what is actually happening inside your body and brain when you feel joy, connection, purpose, and peace — and what happens when those systems go wrong.</p> <p >We explore the six key neurochemicals of happiness — dopamine, serotonin, oxytocin, endorphins, GABA, and cortisol — and the extraordinary discovery that your gut produces 90 to 95 percent of your body's serotonin. We look honestly at what hap...
