Need a few more reasons why to learn how to conquer your mind?
OUR WHY + YOUR WHY
We do what we do because we care about empowering you to not only cope with life, but thrive in life.
-
Coping
Conquer your mind to cope with life.
Life is a rollercoaster. The reality is challenges and stress are inevitable, but a healthy mind is a resilient mind.
Would you like your ride to be smoother and to bounce back faster from the bumps, twists and turns?
-
Thriving
Conquer your mind to thrive in life.
Thriving means you can feel your best, be your best and do your best - both for yourself and for those you care about.
Would you like to go beyond surviving to really thriving?
Conquer your mind . Conquer your life.
This doesn't mean life will be free from challenges.
It does mean you'll be equipped to cope and thrive, because your mind is your ultimate resource.
Life is exhilarating then exhausting, mundane then miraculous, overwhelming then exciting, laughter then tears, pain then pleasure, joy then sorrow, high then low, crazy then calm, conflict then harmony, fun then frenzy... This is the nature of life and we can learn to embrace it all, feel it all, learn from it all, see the beauty in it all.
Where do you sit?
Where would you like to be?
Traditional psychology is about what's wrong with us and how to fix it. It aims to get people to a zero (just ok). Positive Psychology, founded in western society in the late 90's, focuses on what's right with us and how we enhance that. It aims to move people higher up the scale towards thriving.
At PEPTALK we believe there is so much more to life than just being ok, or just coping. We are all about getting you as far along this continuum towards +10 and helping you stay there.
When you're thriving, you feel your best and are able to be your best for yourself and others; but thriving also means your resilience is higher. The further along the right side of the scale you sit, the less likely you are to slip down into the negatives (mental distress) when life's inevitable challenges come along.
Your mind is your greatest asset. It is the most incredible tool you carry around with you every day. Your mind is the basis for how you think, feel, and act. It is at the centre of every decision you make and every conversation you have. Your mind is literally the control centre of your life. Many of us don't know how important our mind is and how to harness it.
TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR
HAPPINESS
Science has taken happiness from a fluffy concept to a legitimate and worthwhile goal.
Did you know that research shows that 40% of our happiness is determined by the way we think and our intentional actions?
Many people put a lot of energy and effort into changing their circumstances because they feel this will lead to greater levels of happiness. But this often leads to frustration, because our circumstances in life only equate to 10% of our happiness.
PEPTALK teaches you evidence-based mental strategies and skills that will help you to harness your 40% zone of power to conquer your mind, and increase happiness and life satisfaction.

MORE SCIENCE-BASED REASONS
TO THRIVE
My personal why
By PEPTALK founder Nadine Hickman
Hi I’m Nadine. My own walk from mental illness to mental wellness taught me many lessons about how (both) powerfully destructive and powerfully constructive the mind can be. Along the way, I learned the skills to use my mind in positive ways and help myself be and stay mentally well.
A few years ago, as the media began to report regularly about a global mental health crisis, I felt frustrated that there seemed to be a focus on treatment services, with little resources going towards teaching people the skills to help themselves psychologically thrive. I sensed a growing culture of dependency in our society.
I then discovered the science of wellbeing. Inspired by my own experiences and knowing that over two decades of research shows that the skills for thriving are teachable and learnable, I felt determined to present these skills in a way that engaged others and inspired them to put them into practice. I used my prior experience as a magazine editor, and love of designing and creating, to bring to life PEPTALK's print and digital resources and realise my dream of empowering others to thrive.
