ENCORE: Lou Gardner - Our ACT Auntie

Hi there and a very warm welcome to Season 5 Episode 14 of People Soup – it’s Ross McIntosh here.  P-Soupers, this episode is an encore, revisiting a favourite from the People Soup Archives, and it's a classic with lots of personal meaning for me and many others. There's much for us all to learn from Lou, through her personal values and what she role modelled for us. Lou's impact in supporting others through her art continues, even though she's no longer with us. Her light shines brightly.Lou, I miss you. I think of you every time I see a blackbird in our garden, which is pretty darned often.People Soup is an award winning podcast where we share evidence based behavioural science, in a way that’s practical, accessible and fun. We're all about sharing the ingredients for a better work life from behavioural science and beyond.There is a transcript for each episode.
