🎙 A Little History of Psychology with Dr. Nikki Hayes
Ready to dive into the fascinating world of psychology? In this episode, we chat with Dr. Nikki Hayes, a rockstar in the field of psychology and the author of the brilliant book A Little History of Psychology. She's written 25+ books, and she's here to share her knowledge with us on the wild, weird, and wonderful journey of psychology through the ages.
💡 What You’ll Learn:
- Why psychology didn’t start with Freud (sorry, Sigmund).
- The crazy story of Phineas Gage—a guy who survived a rod going through his brain and lived to tell the tale.
- How ancient Greek ideas still mislead us today (spoiler: you have more than 5 senses).
- The secret power of Japanese psychology and what Western psych got wrong about "achievement."
- Women in psychology: the unsung heroines behind groundbreaking experiments.
🧠 Key Takeaways:
- Psychology is a team sport—no single “founding father” here! Freud, William James, Wilhelm Wundt, and others all played their part.
- Phineas Gage taught us that personality and brain function are deeply linked, despite all the myths about his post-accident life.
- Global psychology is the future: From Japan to Africa, diverse perspectives are shaking up Western-centric ideas.
📚 About Dr. Nikki Hayes:
- Dr. Hayes is not just an author; she’s a truth-teller. Her work highlights forgotten pioneers and busts myths about psychology’s history. And she doesn’t shy away from tough topics like colonialism, sexism, and ethics (we see you, shady CIA experiments!).
✨ Fun Facts:
- Did you know Japanese industry is a powerhouse of psychological principles? Mind-blowing, right?
🎧 Why Listen?
- If you love history and psychology—and want to impress your friends with cool facts about why you have 40+ senses—this episode is for you. Plus, Dr. Hayes' playful anecdotes will leave you pondering the quirks of the human mind.
