Join Jayson Blair as he interviews newsmakers, experts and regular people on topics that have to do with psychology in the workplace. We will explore the myths, misconceptions, and truths to help build better leaders and promote fulfillment in this important part of our lives. We'll take a scientific and evidence-based approach and avoid pop-psychology or simplistic views of people in the places they work.

Now, as an executive and mental health coach for the past 15 years, he uses the skills from each of those professions to explore the topics that are important to people and their work.
