124. EXPERT – Psychologist Suzy Reading – tending to self - why mums fantasise about a hospital stay – toxic resilience - not expecting others to intuit our needs

Ask me a Q

Hello Bright Minds, my chat with Suzy was deeply engaging for me as a fellow psychologist – and therapeutic at times - and I think it’s a great big, warm, virtual hug for anyone who is wrung out from taking care of children, partners, direct reports and all the other people who you give to in your life.

We talk about themes connected to Suzy’s latest book, How to be selfish, which is about vocalising your needs and your wishes and tending to yourself. You can get more of Suzy on Instagram @suzyreading.

I hope you take some learning from it.
