About This Podcast

Join Fiona Murden psychologist and award-winning author on the Dot to Dot Life podcast . Real conversations about what makes us human. On Dot to Dot, we sit down with leading psychologists, thinkers, and everyday people to explore the threads that shape our lives, from self-awareness and resilience to relationships, creativity, and belonging. This is psychology you can feel in your own life - how we connect, how we cope, how we thrive. If you’ve ever wondered why some people seem grounded under pressure, or how we can build lives that feel as good inside as they look outside this is for you.
