Ep.98 Out of the Bubble with human behaviour dating expert Dr.Mairi Macleod

Dr.Mairi Macleod is an evolutionary biologist, speaker, science writer and expert on human behaviour. She's pioneering the use of an understanding of our evolved preferences and motivations to inform how we can change our behaviour to better suit our needs in the modern world. She applies this in relationships and in the workplace, and she has a special interest in helping single, midlife women find a quality partner – having been through this challenging process herself. Mairi now helps individuals to find a quality partner, to understand and improve their romantic and sexual relationships, to achieve greater health and wellbeing, and to find effective strategies to excel at work while achieving the work-life balance they desire. Subjects covered How it all started. Dr.Mairi Macelod researched the mating and reproductive strategies of wild samango monkeys in Kwa-Zulu Natal, South Africa. On returning to the UK she began some reproduction of her own and so changed tack to more family-compatible work by becoming a freelance science writer. After her own life experiences of divorce later in life she was able to use her evolutionary behavioural biologist background to find love again. Which led to Mairi bringing a new and unique perspective to helping women achieve success and satisfaction in all realms of life.
