The Experiment Mindset #author Tamsin Simounds

The Experiment Mindset: Unlocking the Science of Personal Growth Your next breakthrough starts with one experiment. You've done the courses, listened to the podcasts, made the plans. But you're still stuck in the same patterns. The problem isn't your ambition — it's that you've been trying to think your way into change when you need to experiment your way there. The Experiment Mindset offers a radically different path. Drawing on cutting-edge neuroscience, behavioural psychology and over a decade working with leaders and founders, leadership expert Tamsin Simounds reveals how real transformation happens: not through what worked for someone else, but through discovering what works for your brain, body, and life. Apply the Three Levers of Change (Psychology, Physiology, Environment) to create sustainable growth A science-backed, story-rich guide for ambitious professionals, emerging leaders and anyone tired of fluffy advice. With practical frameworks, real-world examples and actionable experiments you can start today, you’ll learn how to evolve through change — one small, courageous test at a time.

Neighbourhood Watch #author Lauren Williams

The annual Curlew Street scarecrow competition is back, and the residents of Melbourne’s inner north have never seen an entry like it. Shirt bloody, head and arms slumped over a scarecrow crucifix: Victoria’s most conservative Supreme Court Judge, Harry ‘The Pope’ Somerton, is dead. Priyanka Pal, a former psychologist turned homicide detective, is disturbed when her investigation uncovers corruption close to home. Forced to confront the abuses of powerful men – the very reason she left psychology – Priyanka’s faith in the justice system falters.  Emma Bloom is sophisticated, intelligent, and seems to have it all together. But her prickly, estranged sister, Margot, knows the truth. Their attempts at reconciliation spiral into crisis with the death of Emma’s abusive husband, The Pope. As secrets unravel and Priyanka’s investigation cuts close to home, the sisters risk losing what fragile family ties they have left, and Priyanka’s career is on the edge. None of them will ever feel the same way about themselves (or their neighbours) again.  Before turning to fiction writing, author Lauren Williams worked as a lawyer, diplomat, actor, arts journalist and museum communications manager (not all at once).  This is her first novel.

Join the fight.  Tell the story.  Survive the lie. The Writer podcast by Oliver Smuhar is a fictional, serialized audio drama that explores the events of an imagined World War Three.  It follows a young writer drafted into the Foxtrot Unit, a psychological operations team tasked with documenting the war through stories that blend truth with deception. The podcast delves into the nature of truth and the power of propaganda, using a future war as a backdrop to a dialogue about the nature of truth and the power of propaganda.  The series runs weekly from May 12 to August 4, 2026, and contains 13 episodes. It is described as "Full Metal Jacket meets Arcane, with the tension of London Has Fallen," blending character-driven drama, dystopian fiction, and psychological elements to create a cinematic audio experience.  To connect with Oliver ... https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-writer/id1894204580 http://www.oliversmuhar.com/ https://www.instagram.com/oliver.smuhar

Blight #author EJ Johnson

His confession taught me that people are not always what we assume them to be; that we form our views on what we see, not necessarily on what we understand. It’s early 1941, twelve months before the Fall of Singapore, when Australian infantrymen Clarence Roberts and Alexander Campbell disembark to join an imagined heroic campaign to defend British Malaya against the anticipated Japanese invasion. Following the inglorious capitulation of the Allied forces, the men find themselves struggling for their survival, sanity and humanity – first in Changi prison, then in Outram Road gaol. As shameful secrets from their former lives are progressively revealed, the line between right and wrong becomes increasingly blurred. Can disclosure of their past conduct withstand society’s enduring condemnation – or will posterity look upon their behaviour differently? Set against the wilting moral fibre of the British Empire’s colonial beneficiaries in the Far East, Blight is a poignant story of malevolence, revenge, endemic racism and incremental decay, as well as a compelling meditation on the complex and elusive nature of forgiveness.
