Small is Beautiful - updates from The Friday Towards Move Club

Small is Beautiful - updates from The Friday Towards Move Club

Author: People Soup March 4, 2026 Duration: 5:27

Hi there and a very warm welcome to Season 6 Episode 46 of People Soup, it's Ross McIntosh here.

This week it’s a cuppa soup - a short episode and I’m going to update you on our new free club - that anyone can join - it’s called The Friday Towards Move Club.

The Friday Towards Move Club is beautifully simple.

Each Friday, we make one small move towards something that matters to us.

  1. Not a grand transformation.
  2. Not a productivity hack.
  3. Not a life overhaul.

Just one small, intentional step in the direction of our values.

It might take two minutes.

It might take five.

It might feel tiny from the outside.

But psychologically? It’s powerful.

Because every towards move is a vote for the kind of person we want to be.

For those of you who are new to People Soup - welcome - it's great to have you here - I aim to provide you with ingredients for a better work life from behavioural science and beyond. For those of you who are regular P Soupers - thanks for tuning in - we love it that you're part of our community.

There is a transcript for each episode. There is a caveat - this transcript is largely generated by Artificial Intelligence, I have corrected many errors but I won't have captured them all! You can also find the shownotes by clicking on notes then keep scrolling for all the useful links.

Ever wonder why we do the things we do, especially at work or when trying to lead others? People Soup digs into that question, but it doesn’t stop at theory. Each episode is built on a foundation of behavioural science, which means you’ll get more than just interesting stories-you’ll get a clearer understanding of the human ingredients that make up our daily interactions. The conversations here feel real and unscripted, often touching on the messy, rewarding, and sometimes frustrating experience of simply being human. You’ll find that this podcast operates at the intersection of our professional ambitions and our personal well-being, exploring how they influence each other in ways we might not immediately see. It’s for anyone who has left a meeting baffled by a colleague’s reaction, struggled to motivate a team, or just wanted to navigate their own goals with a bit more clarity and less friction. The ideas discussed are deliberately practical, designed to be used almost immediately, whether you’re looking to improve a process, a relationship, or your own mindset. Tune in for a blend of thoughtful analysis and actionable insight that aims to make the complex recipe of human behaviour a little easier to understand and work with.
