S6: E6 From Roller Rinks To 11 Thinking Traps
Episode 6
Monday, 9 March, 2026
A roller rink decal sparks a cascade of memories... backward skating for Greg and arcades for Mark... before we steer into a surprisingly timely question: what stories from the 80s still shape how we think today?Then we flip the mirror. Using the 11 cognitive distortions as a roadmap, we unpack the thinking traps that quietly bend reality: all-or-nothing thinking, mind reading, mental filtering, discounting the positive, magnification and minimization, emotional reasoning, catastrophizing, and personalization. We connect these patterns to our built-in negativity bias, explain why they feel so credible in the moment, and show how they sabotage performance, parenting, and leadership. If you enjoyed the ride, follow the show, share it with a friend who loves 80s deep cuts, and leave a quick review to help more listeners find us. What’s your most quotable 80s line.. and which thinking trap do you want to retire this week?Send us a text and let us know how we're doing. In the meantime, make it a great day & innovate the USA!Check out all episodes of Lead On with Greg & Mark on your favorite podcast platform!
