  • How to Say No Without Guilt & The Secrets to Satisfaction - SYSK Choice

    How to Say No Without Guilt & The Secrets to Satisfaction - SYSK Choice
    Jun 14 2025
    Where is the best place to take a nap? Anyone who has napped in a hammock knows how great it can be. This episode begins by explaining why naps are better in a hammock and why your next nap should be in one. https://www.livescience.com/14680-hammock-rocking-improves-sleep.html It can be hard to say no. After all, you don’t want to let people down or have them think you are not a team player. But think about all the times you have said yes and wish you hadn’t. If you find saying no to be hard, you will be interested in some interesting research that says HOW you do it is what really matters. You can say no to almost anybody and people will generally accept it. Here to explain how you can say no and feel good about it is Professor Vanessa Patrick from the University of Houston and author of the book The Power of Saying No: The New Science of How to Say No That Puts You in Charge of Your Life (https://amzn.to/3MUs6KE). There is a lot of emphasis today on finding happiness. Yet about 40% of people say they are unhappy. Perhaps chasing happiness is the wrong goal. After all, no one is happy all the time. Happiness comes and goes. Maybe instead of a happy life we should be seeking a life of satisfaction. Here to reveal the important distinction between happiness and satisfaction and why a satisfied life is a better goal is Dr Jennifer Guttman. She is psychologist in private practice and author of the book Beyond Happiness: The 6 Secrets of Life Satisfaction (https://amzn.to/43mzyoB). We all know that maintaining eye contact is important when talking with someone. Listen as I discuss how one simple eye contact technique triggers just the right hormones that will make you more intriguing to the person you are looking at. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/26704066 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!!!

  • How Your Family Affects Who You Are & How DNA Affects Your Health

    How Your Family Affects Who You Are & How DNA Affects Your Health
    Jun 12 2025
    A lot of things impact an employer’s decision to hire you or not. But one thing you may not have considered is where you fall in the order of interviewees. Listen as I explain why you want to be the fourth person interviewed. ⁠https://finance.yahoo.com/news/why-always-fourth-during-round-191931348.html⁠ Why did you turn out the way you did? Was it because of your parents, your siblings, your environment or all the above? What about birth order - does that really influence the direction your life takes? What do parents of successful kids tend to do more than other parents? All these questions and more are answered in my discussion with Susan Dominus. She has looked at the research on this and found that a lot of what we believe about how kids turn out is wrong. Susan is a writer for the New York Times and author of a book called ⁠The Family Dynamic: A Journey into the Mystery of Sibling Success (https://amzn.to/3ZgfK6z).⁠ Did you know that compared to many other species, humans have a high rate of genetic diseases. Wouldn’t you think by now that evolution and "survival of the fittest" would’ve weeded those out? What science has recently discovered, about DNA and genetics is astonishing and is helping us understand how genetics work, how diseases are passed on, how genes can mutate and make us sick, why we have such a high rate of genetic diseases and how we may soon be able to fix or prevent some of it. Joining me to discuss this is Lawrence Hurst. He is a professor of evolutionary genetics at the Milner Centre for Evolution at the University of Bath and author of the book, ⁠T⁠he Evolution of Imperfection: The Science of Why We Aren’t and Can’t Be Perfect (https://amzn.to/3ZgOjJS)⁠⁠ There are things in your kitchen you need to get rid of. Over time we bring things into the kitchen that we never need, never use that take up a lot of valuable space. Listen as I offer some suggestions on what you can get rid of right now with no regret whatsoever. ⁠⁠https://www.delish.com/food/a63527523/6-things-you-should-never-keep-on-your-kitchen-counter-according-to-organizational-experts/⁠ PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!!!

The host brings out fascinating topics and outstanding experts, and it should not be 4 stars just because it's hard to understand or because the listener has an excuse such as "Meh I'm korean and I'm so proud that I'm gonna show it off by taking off stars"

Great

The host Mike Carruthers picks interesting topics. I really enjoyed his last week’s podcast that talked about how to hold effective meetings. His podcasts help me choose my next audiobook. Plus the host asks great questions to the presenters and has a pleasant voice that is easy to listen too.
