54. Making Behavioural Ripples: Understanding Your Impact on Others

About this episode

Vic O'Farrell explores how personal values influence behavior and impact on others in everyday situations.

In Episode 54 of It Starts With You , Vic O'Farrell steps behind the mic solo for the very first time and she doesn't hold back. This isn't a Dear Deirdre moment. It's a straight talking dive into what really drives your behaviour at work and at home. Using the metaphor of a Spanish onion, Vic unpacks personality as your steady inner core, while values like respect, autonomy and freedom form the outer layers that shift, clash and sometimes get seriously triggered. From messy supermarket trolleys to questionable parking habits, Vic uses everyday frustrations to reveal a deeper truth. The things that irritate you most often collide with your core values. When that happens, your behaviour changes and so does your impact. This episode challenges you to notice your triggers, understand the ripple effect of your reactions, and pause before passing that energy on. Because whether you realise it or not, behaviour drives behaviour and it always starts with you. "It Starts with You" podcast is available everywhere on Wednesdays every fortnight.
