my book: Yes I Canhttps://www.amazon.com/Yes-Can-Learn-power-self-efficacy/dp/1999794346/

I'm on a podcast! It's all about YES and the psychology behind self-efficacy, metacognition, and goals.... living everyday life one foot in front of the next in a positive way. (and I wrote a book about it!)

It was recorded live and is unedited, for all 43 mins ! It makes a good listen.

On a train to London and just seen something I’ve never seen before – two dear lying down in a field, looking so very peaceful. I don’t think I’ve ever seen dear lying down like that before.
