During our youth, traits are hammered into us by parents, teachers, and the media — traits that ultimately harm us in adulthood. Be a nice guy. Be agreeable. Don't rock the boat. By now, you've probably realized that being the nice guy doesn't get you women, doesn't land you the job you want, and essentially turns you into a doormat. That ends today. In this episode, you'll learn how to tap into your inherent, unapologetic masculine traits and become the badass you were always meant to be.

Welcome to the Leading Edge in Emotionally Focused Therapy, hosted by Drs. James Hawkins, Ph.D., LPC, and Ryan Rana, Ph.D., LMFT, LPC—Renowned ICEEFT Therapists, Supervisors, and Trainers. We're thrilled to have you with us. We believe this podcast, a valuable resource, will empower you to push the boundaries in your work, helping individuals and couples connect more deeply with themselves and each other. In this episode, we address resistant client presentations, emphasizing capturing moments and containing reactivity. Techniques discussed included understanding the zone of resistance, organizing reactivity within the relational frame, and the metaphor of a combination lock to illustrate the process of unlocking client resistance. We highlighted the need for therapists to be assertive and attuned to clients' emotional states. Outline Upcoming Training Events and Externships Ryan announces three core skill series training sessions in Huntington, West Virginia, from August 21 to 23, 2025, and January 15 to 17, 2026. Ryan mentions two externships: one in Indianapolis, Indiana, from July 9 to 12, 2025, and another in Northwest Arkansas from July 29 to August 1, 2025. James discusses an externship in Bend, Oregon, from October 15 to 18, 2025, and the SV Focus Lab in Northwest Arkansas from September 11 to 13, 2025. James highlights the hybrid nature of the SV Focus Lab, allowing both in-person and online attendance. Introduction to Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) Ryan shares a positive experience with the Minnesota EFT center, praising their leadership and intentionality in learning the model. James reflects on the vibrant learning environment at the Minnesota EFT center, mentioning various leaders and their contributions. To the resistant client series topic, focusing on containing space and getting in front of the resistant client dynamic. Understanding the Zone of Resistance The concept of finding the zone of resistance, where clients are stuck between hope and longing, and the importance of leaning into vulnerability. There is a need to contain reactivity within the relational frame to prevent it from taking over the session. An episode from the past (episode 64) about getting out ahead of resistance and shares a story to illustrate the point. A session where George Fowler intervenes to prevent a pursuer's reactivity from escalating, emphasizing the importance of capturing the moment. Capturing the Moment in EFT The importance of capturing the moment in EFT, noting that missing key moments can lead to more escalation. A personal anecdote about his early EFT training and the importance of creating a safe place for clients to process. The concept of "78 harm," where seeing the same harmful move in the cycle multiple times indicates a need for a treatment plan. The metaphor of a combination lock to describe the process of unlocking the client's resistance and creating a shift. Strategies for Managing Resistance A Rubric for managing resistance, including capturing the moment, unlocking the block, and repetitively mirroring the client's behavior. The importance of not overdoing the lock metaphor and the need for attunement and assertiveness in EFT. A story about a consultation with an experienced EFT therapist who was feeling demoralized due to a lack of progress with a resistant client. The importance of capturing moments and creating a mental treatment plan to address the client's resistance. The Role of Reflection in EFT The importance of reflection in EFT, using Sue Johnson's phrase, "Can I try on what I think I'm seeing?" A personal anecdote about the need for external validation to see one's reactivity. The importance of not letting reactivity take over the session and the need for therapists to step in and address it. The importance of capturing the moment and organizing reactivity within the relational frame. Addressing Resistance in Therapy The importance of addressing resistance in therapy, noting that ignoring it can lead to ineffective treatment. A story about a consultation with a therapist who was struggling with a resistant client and the importance of capturing moments. The need for therapists to be attuned to the client's resistance and to address it in a humanistic and compassionate way. The importance of not skipping over reactivity and the need to privilege it to access underlying emotions. The Importance of Clarity and Kindness The importance of clarity and kindness in therapy, noting that it is better to take the chance of a rupture to help the client see their resistance. There is a need for therapists to be assertive and to capture moments lovingly but unapologetically. A story about a consultation with a therapist who was feeling demoralized due to a lack of progress with a resistant client. The importance of capturing moments and creating a mental treatment plan to address the client's resistance. The Role of Assertiveness in EFT The importance of assertiveness in EFT, using the metaphor of a road trip to illustrate the need to address resistance. The importance of not giving up on the model and the need to work with resistance instead of avoiding it. On the importance of capturing the moment and organizing reactivity within the relational frame. The importance of addressing resistance in a humanistic and compassionate way to help clients make progress. Series Overview We are excited to announce the beginning of a new series focused on practical help when a client's nervous system becomes entrenched and cannot open to their experience, their partner's experience, or the clinical process. We want to help you with a clear frame of nuance and intentionality in this clinical experience.

In this episode of *Optica*, Dr. Gabriel Salguero discusses how to effectively handle difficult people, a challenge everyone faces at some point. He shares key strategies to navigate these interactions while maintaining professionalism and respect. *Key Takeaways:*1. **Maintain Composure** – Stay calm, professional, and respectful, even when provoked. Difficult people often try to trigger emotional reactions, so staying composed helps prevent escalation. 2. **Listen Actively** – Give full attention and seek to understand rather than just waiting to respond. Active listening can shift the tone of the conversation. 3. **Practice Empathy** – Try to understand the other person's perspective, even if you disagree. Empathy doesn't mean tolerating disrespect but rather seeking to comprehend the emotions behind their actions. 4. **Set Boundaries** – Clearly communicate acceptable and unacceptable behaviors. Many difficult people push limits, so standing firm on non-negotiables is crucial. 5. **Don't Take It Personally** – Recognize that their behavior often stems from their own issues, not a reflection of you. 6. **Be Assertive, Not Aggressive** – Clearly express your thoughts and needs while respecting the other person's viewpoint. Assertiveness is about confidence, not confrontation. 7. **Focus on Solutions** – Avoid getting caught up in emotional back-and-forth. Instead, seek common ground and work toward resolutions where possible. 8. **Know When to Walk Away** – If the interaction becomes harmful or unproductive, disengage. Sometimes, involving a neutral third party is the best option. The episode emphasizes that with the right mindset and tools, dealing with difficult people can lead to unexpected alliances or friendships.

Or maybe you've been labeled "too aggressive" at work when being direct about your boundaries, expectations, or needs. The line between assertive and aggressive is often blurry for women in BJJ and beyond. It's time for a mindset shift. Assertiveness isn't aggression; it's clarity, confidence, and control. Let's reframe how we go after what we want, on and off the mats, without forcing anger or being unfairly labeled.   Chapters Certainly! Here is the sequence of topics covered in the transcript, now with timestamps: (00:00) Calling out hate speech (05:19) Why your BJJ gym needs to feel safe and supportive (07:11)  Mindset shift to reframe aggressiveness as assertiveness (09:16) When your coach tells you to be more aggressive (11:01) Being full of NO (14:18) The role of aggressiveness in Martial Arts (16:45) Learning to be proactive instead of reactive (17:45) Assertiveness vs. Aggression off the mat   If you Love the Podcast, Share it with a Friend!
