Today in conversation with #worldrenowned Australian #psychologist - Peter Quarry. Peter has over 30 years experience in the industry and is a sought after #speaker and trainer with 50 major #internationalawards for his training videos for some of the biggest companies around the world. His #book titled, If I Were You - A psychologist puts himself on the couch has released, it describes why you should regularly #review your #life, and gives a series of easy to follow instructions. Then, to demonstrate, he proceeds to deconstruct his own sometimes messy, colorful and interesting life.
With a format that is wholly unique in that it consists of a self-to-self conversation between 'Pete', the wild child who never grew up but now wants to take stock of his life, and his alter ego 'PQ', the world-renowned psychologist who directs and guides the process.
Essentially the book is about Peter (the psychologist) putting himself on the couch and providing readers with a toolkit to confront the curveballs inevitably heading their way. It throws light on #positive effects of aging and coming to terms with getting old. Creatively managing one's career with a retrospective view once in a while. And paths to discover the benefits of diving deep into inner self to finding the true you!
