Description

What is it like to be an astronaut? What does it take to be an astronaut? How do we control risks in high-stress environments?


Today's guest is one of the most prolific American astronauts who was inducted into the US Astronaut Hall of Fame.  


Benoit wanted to be an astronaut or the president of the world. Yes, one of those positions is not real. Now, he explores the space within his clients’ temporal lobes and internal landscapes as a psychotherapist. Close enough, ha!


Jim Wetherbee is a NASA astronaut, former Spaceflight commander, retired US Navy captain, aerospace engineer, and published author.


Jim is a veteran of 6 Space Shuttle missions and is the only American to have commanded 5 spaceflight missions in history. 


Expect to learn about the art of controlling risk, the life of an astronaut, the role of cognitive biases in high-stress environments, effective mental modeling, the importance of organizational culture, what we can learn from disasters, and much more.
