My Pocket Psych

‘My Pocket Psych’ is our regular podcast all about the psychology of the workplace.

Hosted by Dr. Richard MacKinnon, and featuring a range of expert guests, each episode sees us taking an evidence-based look at an important aspect of work, translating it into everyday language and sharing practical insights for our listeners.

In the last 200 episodes, we’ve explored various aspects of workplace wellbeing, careers, change, leadership, sustainable productivity, management and interpersonal effectiveness. We’ve done deep dives into coaching psychology, psychological flexibility and sustainable leadership. We’ve explained how to prioritise self-care and self-compassion. And we’ve addressed the challenges of loneliness and disconnection.

We love to hear from our listeners, so please get in touch with your suggestions for topics we can cover, questions about what we’ve covered and feedback on how we’re doing it!
