In this episode, Dr. Jay LaGuardia welcomes Michael Reddington, a certified forensic interviewer (CFI) and the author of "The Disciplined Listening Method."

Michael shares his expertise in applying strategic observation and persuasive communication skills to uncover hidden value in high-stakes conversations. Drawing from his experience in investigations and teaching interrogation techniques, Michael explains how leaders, negotiators, sales professionals, and HR personnel can effectively navigate challenging interactions to achieve desired outcomes.

Episode Takeaways:

• The ability to find common ground is crucial for successful communication, regardless of the context or the person you're speaking with.
• Illustrating your understanding of a situation before investigating the problem and seeking accountability can help reduce resistance and encourage open communication.
• Using the word "you" in conversations can be dangerous, as it may trigger defensiveness and hinder progress. Instead, make illustrative statements to demonstrate your understanding without assigning blame.
• When faced with a "brick wall" in a conversation, work with it instead of against it. Avoid arguing rationally against emotional problems, and instead, try to understand the underlying issues and find a way forward together.
• Leaders must consistently provide evidence of their trustworthiness through their actions and follow-through. Failing to do so can lead to a breakdown in trust and a decline in team performance.
• Deciding when to have a "no BS conversation" depends on the context and totality of circumstances. Factors to consider include the clarity of expectations, the resources provided, the magnitude of the issue, and the level of support given.
• Effective communication is a skill set that can be learned and developed, whether in business or personal relationships. Focusing on desired outcomes and putting emotions aside can help generate the results you seek.

Welcome to the Triple P Life Podcast!

In this episode, Dr. Jay LaGuardia welcomes Dr. Bradley Nelson, the author of the bestselling books "The Emotion Code" and "The Body Code," to discuss the often-overlooked emotional component of overall well-being. Dr. Nelson explains how unresolved emotions can become trapped in the body, leading to physical ailments, emotional distress, and hindering the healing process.

They explore the concept of trapped emotions, the "emotional loop," and how the Emotion Code can help individuals identify and release this emotional baggage to improve their physical, emotional, and spiritual health.

Episode Takeaways:

• Emotional well-being is a crucial element of overall health, alongside physical and spiritual aspects. You cannot be truly well if you neglect your emotional state.
• Unresolved emotions can become "trapped" in the body as energy, potentially manifesting as physical pain, disease, or emotional issues like anxiety and depression.
• The "emotional loop" describes the normal processing of emotions, but sometimes this loop gets stuck open, leading to trapped emotions.
• The Emotion Code is a method developed by Dr. Nelson to identify and release these trapped emotional energies using muscle testing and intention.
• Releasing trapped emotions can lead to significant improvements in physical symptoms, emotional well-being, and even the ability to forgive and move on from past hurts.
• Dr. Nelson has found that a vast majority of physical pain and disease processes have an emotional component.
• The Body Code is a more comprehensive system that addresses six categories of imbalances affecting health: energies (including trapped emotions), pathogens, circuits and systems, misalignments, toxins, and nutrition and lifestyle.
• The subconscious mind acts like a powerful computer that can be accessed through muscle testing to identify underlying imbalances.
• Dr. Nelson is releasing a new book called "The Heart Code" focusing specifically on "heart walls," which are emotional energies trapped around the heart that can hinder connection and well-being.
