The Toastmasters Podcast with Greg Gazin
The Toastmasters Podcast is like a radio talk show featuring interviews with Toastmasters usually featured in the Toastmaster magazine. The purpose of the podcast is to amplify the magazine - to dig deeper or to put a voice to a face or written wordBut unlike a radio show, a podcast is on the Internet, and available, for free, to anyone in the world with an Internet connection, and a connected device capable of playing audio. 250+ episodes are at ToastmastersPodcast.comThe Toastmasters Podcast is co-produced by Toastmasters International and Archieboy Holdings, LLC, for our global audience of Toastmasters and those interested in public speaking and leadership.
[30:35] At the start of the year, many of us reflect on how we can improve and become the best versions of ourselves. In this episode, we speak with Toastmasters Podcast co-host Ryan Levesque about his recent article entitled - 'Meet Your Future Self - Today! New research in psychology can help you design your future and achieve your goals,' which appears in the January 2023 edition of the Toastmaster.
A student of the topic, Ryan shares his thoughts and favorite insights from the emerging field of future-self science, citing psychological researchers and other experts. Some of the experts referenced in Ryan's article include, organizational psychologist Benjamin Hardy, Ph.D; Dan Gilbert, Ph.D., of Harvard University; Hal Herschrielf, Ph.D. from UCLA; German academic and psychologist, Gabriele Oettingen, Ph.D ; and Austrian psychiatrist and author, the late Victor Frankl, MD, Ph.D.
Today's episode offers practical suggestions for applying these concepts and concrete steps we can take today to help us realize our potential.
