Tiger Therapy

“We are all stuck in a web. Every one of us is conditioned and caught up in a system that we cannot see.” I first learned about Elise in early 2020 when The Goop Lab came out on Netflix. There she was, side-by-side with Gwyneth Paltrow, discussing innovative health experiments they would all be trying as part of the show. I remember thinking “Chief Content Officer at Goop… what a cool job.” Fast forward and I’ve now been following Elise for a few years, I’ve seen her transition from Goop to being an incredible podcaster and author - FIVE of her books have been New York Times bestsellers.So now I think she has an even cooler job.Her latest book - ‘On Our Best Behavior: The Price Women Pay to Be Good’, an analysis of how history and culture have shaped how women see themselves, was an instant NYT bestseller. As Tiger Therapy is all about the ways we hold ourselves back - through self-doubt and limiting beliefs, so much of the book struck a chord. When you listen you’ll understand why. By the way, this conversation isn’t just for women. I truly encourage everyone to listen as it will really make you think about how our upbringing and society systems condition us all. Thank you so much Elise for coming on Tiger Therapy. _______Social media: Pippa Woodhead | @pippa.woodheadTigerhall Elise Loehnen

A good friend of mine has worked in a particular sector for most of her career. From the outside she’s one of those people who’s life looks perfect. But more recently over a series of honest talks, she’s confided in me that she hates her job. Has done for years. Naturally I’ve asked, “why don’t you do something else?” She explained that there were a couple of big things keeping her stuck. Firstly, she doesn’t know what she wants to do instead. (Kind of a problem).The other big thing is that she’s overwhelmed with self-doubt at the idea of making a big change. She’s been doing what she’s been doing for so long, that at least she knows she’s good at it. It feels terrifying to walk away from.This week on Tiger Therapy, I’m speaking to world authority on career transitions, who has been named one of the most influential business thinkers in the world.Herminia Ibarra is Professor of Organisational Behaviour at London Business School. She also spent years teaching at INSEAD and Harvard Business School. Her career has been spent researching leadership, women’s advancement, and career transitions. Her latest book Working Identity: Unconventional Strategies for Reinventing Your Career, explores why so many people get stuck, why career-pivots feel so hard, and what to do about it.If you’ve ever dreamed of starting again - this one’s for you. Thanks so much, Herminia for coming on Tiger Therapy!_______You can learn more about Herminia and buy her book here. _______Social media: Pippa Woodhead | @pippa.woodheadTigerhall Herminia Ibarra

If you knew what to say and how to act in every scenario - how would this make a difference to how confident you feel?If you knew you could always make a good first impression, would you doubt yourself less, would you feel braver to put yourself out there and try new things? Today I’m speaking to someone who always knows!Sara Jane Ho is the most famous etiquette expert I can think of. She’s the founder of China’s first finishing school - Institute Sarita - which was recognised as one of the "World's Most Innovative 50 Companies" by Fast Company Magazine. She’s the host of the Netflix show Mind Your Manners - which was nominated for an Emmy.

“It's how we respond to change that separates winners from losers.”Jim Keyes’ ability to adapt to change is what’s seen him through not one, but two Fortune 500 CEO tenures - the first at 7-Eleven, where he successfully restructured and led the company to be the behemoth it is today. The second, at Blockbuster, which… well…. we all think we know what happened here, right? He’s now authored a book "Education is Freedom" where he delves into the power of building knowledge and lifelong learning, and how this serves us as individuals but also a society as a whole. In this episode of Tiger Therapy, we cover: Why the Blockbuster story we think we know isn’t what really happened What growing up in poverty taught James about the power of mindset The advice James would have given himself as a 20 year old Jim’s trick for avoiding self-doubt and imposter syndrome How knowledge is everything - and especially crucial in times of change, crisis and fearThank you SO MUCH Jim for coming on Tiger Therapy, I loved our conversation and resonate so much with what you say!_______Education is Freedom is out now, order here.

For many of us, annual leave is the highlight of our year - the chance to get away from our normal lives and escape to somewhere new and exciting. Ash Bhardwaj has managed to make getting away his career. As a travel writer, journalist, broadcaster and author, Ash has travelled all over the globe - as a backpacker, a soldier, on expedition, as part of newspaper commissions and for TV shows. On his journeys he’s met everyone from prime ministers to the Dalai Lama. His travel writing has appeared in publications such as The Daily Telegraph, The Times, Huffington Post, and he’s produced TV programmes for the BBC, Channel 4 and Animal Planet.In this episode of Tiger Therapy, we explore the emotional side of travel - including travel for healing, the power of sabbaticals, and of course (because this is Tiger Therapy) travel for overcoming self doubt and limiting beliefs.Ash’s new book - Why We Travel - is out now.Thanks so much Ash for coming on Tiger Therapy!_______Social media: Pippa Woodhead | @pippa.woodheadTigerhall Ash Bhardwaj | @ashbhardwaj

Until recently, Rob Pierre was CEO of Jellyfish, the major digital media agency he co-founded over 18 years ago - a role which made him one of the UK’s most successful media leaders. In 2021 he was voted Media Week's Media Leader of the Year to recognise his achievements. Now, having stepped down, we reflect on life without the CEO title, leadership, confidence and his tool for avoiding self doubt. If you’ve listened to Tiger Therapy before, you’ll know that at the end of each episode, I ask guests to nominate something they think is brilliant to come on the podcast. Joanna Flint, Chief Commercial Officer at Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group, suggested Rob. Here’s what she said about him: “What I love about Rob is his storytelling, his authenticity and his belief. He’s a really interesting individual with a global perspective to talk about how to build an incredibly successful business through grit, determination, and being a really good man.”We couldn’t agree more. Thanks so much Rob for coming on Tiger Therapy - I loved our conversation!_______Social media: Tigerhall Pippa Woodhead | @pippa.woodheadRob Pierre

We're back for Season 3 of Tiger Therapy!!! I am beyond excited for the conversations and speakers we're bringing to you over the next few weeks.______How does a psychotherapist handle grief, anxiety and self doubt? After a series of family tragedies, psychotherapist Amy Morin started studying what it is that makes someone mentally strong. She turned this research into blog post entitled ’13 Things Mentally Strong People Don’t Do,’ which she expected only a handful of people would read.Much to her surprise, it went viral (as in, 50 million people viral!)This set Amy down the path of bestselling author and worldwide authority on mental strength. She's since sold over a million copies of her books, and they've been translated into 40 languages.In this conversation Amy and I (naturally) discussed mental strength, and of course I wanted to get her expert psychotherapist take on self doubt, limiting beliefs, and her advice for all of us. I found this conversation incredibly useful and Amy shared some brilliant tools to try - thank you so much Amy for coming on Tiger Therapy!_______Social media: Pippa Woodhead | @pippa.woodheadTigerhall Amy Morin
