I went to a Catholic all-boys high school run by the Christian Brothers, a teaching order founded by St. John the Baptist De La Salle. I will give them credit for giving me great preparation for future academic success, and even maybe this podcast. So at the foundation of Experience by Design are the Christian Brothers. But that wasn't my first brush with Catholicism. I did a fair number of the sacraments growing up and into adulthood, a process which included learning about the tenets and history of such central figures like Jesus. One of the things I recall learning about was the Sermon on the Mount and the Beatitudes. I also preferred the Beatitudes to things like the Ten Commandments. In a way the Commandments can read like the rules of a HOA of all the things you can't do. It is important to remember things like “Thou shall not kill” and not to “covet thy neighbor's wife.” But I liked the Beatitudes because they gave props to people already doing good things.A really good one is “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.”Regardless of your religious or spiritual beliefs, I think we can all get behind that, especially at a time when there is so much conflict. The Armed Conflict Location and Event Data global monitor organization states, “Recent levels of violence have been unprecedentedly high, with several ‘record-breaking' months in the past year.” But this just doesn't mean armed conflict on the international stage. Things are tense all over with all kinds of conflict everyday.Which is why we have Josh Gordon as a guest on Experience by Design. I've known Josh for a long time, but primarily in the capacity of a fellow runner and training partner. Josh also is a faculty member at the University of Oregon, a leader in the area of sports mediation, and the founder of the Sports Conflict Institute. In his career, Josh has done work with FIFA, Major League Baseball, Court of Arbitration for Sport, and others. We talk about fairness and equity in sports, and why emphasizing the opportunities provided by sports are meaningful and should not be derailed. We explore how we can build inclusive cultures through sports. He takes us into his work at the collegiate level, and how setting expectations ahead of time can produce greater satisfaction and happiness with ensuing experiences. We also talk about the difference between ‘distress' and ‘eustress', and why a little bit of friction can be essential to growth. Finally we explore how we can create equitable organizational cultures, and why the perception of fairness can be more important that the presence of outcome.Sports Conflict Institute: https://sportsconflict.orgJosh Gordon: https://www.linkedin.com/in/joshuagordonSports Conflict Institute TV: https://sportsconflict.org/sci-tv/

In Gaza, a fragile ceasefire comes with great uncertainty for the future. In Yemen, the Houthis are abducting humanitarian workers and journalists in a witch hunt for alleged spies. And in Syria, a new and unstable political landscape could go either way. “It's not easy to build peace. It's much easier to stop a war,” says Martin Griffiths, executive director of Mediation Group International. The former under secretary general for humanitarian affairs at the UN speaks to The National's editor-in-chief Mina Al-Oraibi in this special episode of Beyond the Headlines. They discuss the instrumental role of mediation, not only to resolve conflicts in the Middle East, but to ensure peace will follow. Mr Griffiths draws insights from his decades-long career in the humanitarian field to reflect on current events in the region. He talks about the diplomacy model set by Gulf countries and about opportunities to reform a UN in crisis.

If you would like more information about the resources Mona provides through Neurodiverse Love you can check out her website at neurodiverselove.com——————————————————————————During this session from the 2025 Neurodiverse Love Conference Nicole Knowlton, MA, MDR, JD   shares information about neurodiverse mediation. Neurodiverse Mediation focuses on resolving conflicts involving neurodivergent individuals, such as those who are autistic, or have ADHD, PTSD or a combination. It addresses challenges like communication differences, emotional dysregulation, and sensory needs, particularly in divorce, parenting, and estate disputes. Specialized mediators help create customized solutions and ensure fairness while managing the unique difficulties neurodivergent people face under stress. An additional part of understanding neurodivergence vulnerabilities includes a closer look at hormonal changes related to premenstrual syndrome (PMS), Premenstrual Dysphoria Disorder (PMDD), and menopause. These changes may have a significant impact on emotional regulation, medication efficacy, and relationship dynamics. By understanding these factors, mediators can foster more compassionate and effective conflict resolution. Nicole would describe herself as a neurodivergent specialist. She has personal and family experience with autism, ADHD, PTSD and PMDD. Her education and training includes a focus on ASD and ADHD assessments, marriage and family therapy, family law, and conflict resolution among neurodivergent individuals, couples and families. Personally, she was diagnosed with ASD and ADHD late in life. It was thanks to her children that she obtained the correct diagnosis. Nicole is divorced after a 13-year neurodiverse relationship and was initially drawn into this area to do her part to spread awareness, help identify other untreated or undiagnosed autistics, and help families and couples separate with a long-term plan of success. Nicole had a very messy divorce and if she had the right information, everyone would have suffered so much less. She is so grateful when families opt to mediate divorce when there are children involved. You can contact Nicole at the link below:NICOLE KNOWLTON | Neurodiverse Couples

To infer means to guess or use reasoning. Another definition is to conclude or judge from premises or evidence.To imply means to suggest indirectly or to indicate something without actually stating it. I, the listener or reader, need to try to figure out the message that you, the speaker or writer, are sending. And I might guess wrong. Not only am I interpreting what I hear and read through my personal filter. I am also trying to read through the lines to understand what you are trying to tell me.Double the trouble? Exponentially harder?I don't know. I do know that we can be careful about what we imply, and we can try to avoid creating unnecessary problems. And we can be aware of our filter and consider when it might be doing us more harm than good. Do you have comments or suggestions about a topic or guest?

Practical Guidance for Managers When it comes to managing workplace issues, prevention is always better than cure. In this episode 253 of the Employment Law & HR Podcast, we dive into why early action matters, how to spot the signs of trouble, and practical steps you can take to stop minor issues from escalating into costly legal problems.    In this episode, we cover: Why early action is often avoided by employers and managers. The real cost of delaying action on workplace concerns. Spotting the early warning signs that something isn't right. How to have effective “fix it” conversations with employees. When to use mediation as a tool to rebuild trust. How recent legal developments under the Employment Rights Act 2025 increase the need to act early.   “The best employers set their teams up for success by addressing concerns before they become conflicts.”      Why This Matters Too often, organisations wait too long to address performance or behaviour concerns—leading to grievances, resignations, or tribunal claims. Early, fair, and well-documented action not only reduces legal risk but builds trust and stronger workplace cultures.    Common Scenarios Where Early Action Makes a Difference A small clash over workload expectations turns into a bullying allegation. Personality clashes that go unchecked end in formal grievances. Persistent lateness leads to dismissal and an unfair dismissal claim. Failure to address wellbeing concerns leads to long-term sickness absence.      Practical Tips from the Episode Use simple, open language: “I've noticed a change — is everything okay?” “Let's talk about how we can resolve this early.” Document informal conversations. Consider mediation early to prevent escalation. Escalate when the issue involves serious allegations or risks.      Key Takeaways Act early — don't wait for issues to grow. Communicate openly, calmly, and empathetically. Keep records of informal actions and discussions. Mediation can save relationships and reduce conflict. Seek professional advice when in doubt.   If you would like support to understand if you may have a claim for constructive unfair dismissal please do not hesitate to contact our office on 01983 897003 for a free no obligation discussion.

"We're 100% Divine and 100% human. It's in that shared common connection between the two of those that real magic happens." Drew Horning Hoffman teacher, coach, and podcast host, Drew Horning, sits in the guest chair today to share about his time in the Process and so much more. Drew originally came to the Process in 2013 for support with marital relationship issues, having heard about Hoffman from someone in his men's group. Looking back, Drew says Hoffman was one of the most profound experiences of his life. Just a year later, in 2014, he began his training to become a Hoffman teacher. Drew shares two vulnerable moments from his week. He shares about the profound student-teacher relationship he experienced with his teacher, Raz. More like a mentor or coach than a teacher, Drew knew Raz had his back all the way through the Process. Drew, age 4 The deeper story here, though, is how the Process opens the way for us to experience the full range of being human. Drew sees the Process as an exploration into what it means to be human, both the light and the dark within us. In one experiential exercise, Drew says he "touched this part, this base part of being human," and it "caused him to recoil." In the very next moment, he and his group were led directly into a compassion exercise. And what transpired was the transformation so key to the Hoffman Process. Moments after he touched into this darkness, he found himself held in love. Love is always embracing us, even in our darkest moments as human beings. Here we witness Drew's vulnerability and wisdom as a human being and a Hoffman teacher. He holds the human heart with gentleness, dignity, and respect. We hope you enjoy this conversation. More about Drew Horning: A former licensed private practice psychotherapist, Drew has a Master's degree in clinical work from the University of Michigan. He is trained in EMDR, Mediation and Dispute Resolution, Gottman Couples Counseling, and Brené Brown's Daring Way. He hosts his own podcast on relationships. Drew has also coached high school basketball. Drew published his book, Grappling: White Men's Journey from Fragile to Agile, in May 2021. He is currently a manager of the faculty as a core faculty member of the Hoffman Institute. Drew is on the board of his extended family's real estate business. He is committed to his own family, his two adult children, and his wife of nearly 25 years. Drew is committed to his own personal growth work and supporting others on their own journey towards wellness. Healing requires incredible courage and a commitment to kindness.

My most recent guest, Gerry O'Sullivan, talked with me about her process, The Journey of Inference. As she puts it succinctly: “Our Journey of Inference interprets the world of observable data according to our unique perspective or paradigm.”It's clear from Gerry's process and our conversation that our inferences can get us into trouble, precisely because we each carry a unique perspective or paradigm.Dictionary definitions of infer are, if not quite unique, not fully consistent.For example, one says infer means to conclude through reasoning. Another than infer means to guess or use reasoning. And yet another statesInfer can mean “to derive by reasoning; conclude or judge from premises or evidence.”It's that guessing, those premises, that can wreak havoc.  Do you have comments or suggestions about a topic or guest?

Navigating Grandparent Roles in High Conflict DivorcesThis episode of "It's All Your Fault" features Bill Eddy and Megan Hunter addressing two distinct listener questions. The first explores the challenging position grandparents face when their adult children experience contentious divorces. The second examines complex co-parenting dynamics involving an ex-spouse demonstrating high conflict behavior and a new spouse seeking involvement.Understanding Family Dynamics in High Conflict SituationsThe hosts examine how family members can effectively navigate these challenging situations while maintaining appropriate boundaries. They discuss practical strategies for managing communication, setting limits, and fostering healthy relationships during custody disputes and co-parenting arrangements.First Listener Question: Grandparent Support During DivorceHow can grandparents maintain supportive relationships with both parents?What strategies help when grandchildren show signs of alienation?How should grandparents respond to concerning statements from grandchildren?When should grandparents intervene versus step back?What approaches help maintain healthy boundaries while supporting the family?Second Listener Question: Co-Parenting with Ex-Spouse and New WifeHow to manage communication with an ex-spouse showing high conflict behavior?What boundaries make sense when dealing with military-related trauma?Should you engage with the new wife's attempts at relationship building?How to maintain BIFF communication effectively?When is parallel parenting more appropriate than attempted collaboration?Throughout the episode, the hosts emphasize several key approaches for managing these complex situations. They stress the importance of setting clear, matter-of-fact limits to maintain healthy relationships and recommend using the "four big skills" framework when teaching children appropriate behaviors. The discussion highlights how parallel parenting often proves more sustainable than forced closeness, and emphasizes the value of building trust gradually rather than rushing relationships. The hosts also underscore the importance of maintaining healthy skepticism while remaining open to positive developments in these challenging family dynamics.The episode provides valuable insights for grandparents, divorced parents, and new spouses navigating complex family dynamics. While recognizing the challenges of these situations, the hosts offer practical approaches that prioritize children's wellbeing while maintaining appropriate boundaries.Additional ResourcesExpert Publications⇨ Book (pre-orders - publishing November 2025):  SLIC Solutions for Conflict: Setting Limits & Imposing Consequences in 2 1/2 Steps⇨ Book: BIFF for CoParent Communication (Appendix B mentioned in podcast)⇨ Book: Don't Alienate the KidsPersonal Transformation Solutions⇨ Conflict Influencer® 6-week class (Zoom) for everyone⇨ New Ways for Families® Co-parenting Without Court Online Class (with optional coaching - mentioned in podcast)⇨ 1:1 Coaching & Consultation (For Your Legal Case w/ Bill Eddy; For Other Situations w/ Megan Hunter)Professional Development⇨ Bill Eddy's Signature New Ways Training (for mediators; for counselors and divorce coaches; for workplace coaches; for workplace leaders)Connect With Us⇨ Visit High Conflict Institute: highconflictinstitute.com⇨ Submit questions for Bill and Megan⇨ Browse our complete collection of books and resources in our online store—available in print and e-book formats⇨ Find these show notes and all past episode notes on our websiteWatch this episode on YouTube!Important NoticeOur discussions focus on behavioral patterns rather than diagnoses.

In this in-depth episode, Rebecca Zung dive into the ultimate guide for handling narcissists in mediation, divorce, and custody battles. You'll learn exactly how to prepare, protect yourself, and win against manipulative tactics used by narcissists in court. From legal leverage to emotional boundaries and self-empowerment, this masterclass breaks down every stage of the fight — and how to reclaim your power with clarity, strategy, and strength. What You'll Learn How to Handle Narcissists in Mediation and Legal Battles — preparation, strategy, leverage, and negotiation psychology. How narcissists distort communication — twisting words, gaslighting, and manipulating evidence to gain control. Essential leverage techniques that force narcissists to settle or comply without giving in to emotional games. Why emotional control and confidence are your greatest weapons during mediation or court. What to do when narcissists violate court orders or ignore agreements — effective legal steps that hold them accountable. Understanding narcissistic supply and how to cut it off to regain your power. Why early mediation, collaborative law, or “being nice” doesn't work with narcissists. Documentation mastery — the exact kind of evidence judges believe and how to build your case strategically. Rebecca Zung's SLAY Method — Strategy, Leverage, Anticipate, and focusing on YOU to turn the tables on narcissists. The truth about the family court system — how to recognize bias, expose manipulation, and fight smartly for your rights. Real success stories and tactical steps to outsmart narcissists legally and emotionally. Key Takeaways Mediation with narcissists isn't about fairness — it's about leverage and boundaries. The courtroom is a psychological battlefield — preparation and emotional neutrality win. Narcissists will delay, obstruct, and twist facts — but documentation, calm strategy, and a strong legal team turn the tables. Your recovery and mindset are just as vital as your legal approach — clarity equals power. #RebeccaZung #DrRamani #NarcissistDivorce #NarcissisticAbuseRecovery #NarcissistMediation #HighConflictDivorce #FamilyCourt #CustodyBattle #NarcissistLaw #NarcissisticParent #LegalStrategy #SLAYProgram #NarcissistLeverage #DivorceRecovery #TraumaBond #NarcissisticAbuse #NarcissismAwareness #EmotionalAbuse #PsychologicalAbuse #Boundaries #CovertNarcissist #OvertNarcissist #NarcissistSurvivor

Send Us a Message (include your contact info if you'd like a reply)What happens when a country makes mediation free for every separating family—but removes the preparation that makes it work? We dig into New Zealand's bold FDR shift with Mediator and Divorce Coach Nikki Bould, unpacking the real-world impact of funding cuts, waitlists, and the shortage of child inclusion specialists. From the outside, “free” looks like progress; inside the system, parents are queued up, dysregulated, and often walking into high-stakes conversations without the skills or context to succeed.We walk through the practical trade-offs: why even a short prep window can change outcomes, what child-inclusive practice adds to parent decision-making, and how coaching complements therapy by building forward-focused skills when emotions run hot. Nikki shares on-the-ground insights from mediators and family lawyers, highlighting where families stall, why some head straight to court after a failed mediation, and how a coaching-led approach can reduce escalation and make every professional's job easier. We also explore a Kiwi-specific vision for parenting coordination—interdisciplinary, culturally aligned, and designed to keep agreements durable and kids at the center.If you care about child well-being, equitable access to justice, and practical tools that actually move families forward, this conversation offers clear next steps. Learn how early coaching can stabilize parents, how to translate a child's voice into better plans, and what advocates can do to build bridges across law, mediation, and mental health.

Is there such a thing as a universal human experience of the divine, or are all encounters shaped by culture, language, and power? In this video, we explore the classic debate between perennialism and constructivism, from William James and Mircea Eliade to Steven Katz, Talal Asad, and beyond. Drawing on philosophy, anthropology, psychology, and neuroscience, we look at how claims of universality are entangled with history and how particular traditions cultivate what we call “religious experience.”CONNECT & SUPPORT

In the story of the Angry Man, the Buddha illustrates how to disarm criticism based or anger or rudeness. A young man came to insult the Buddha, but the Buddha did not become angry or insulted. Instead, he calmly asked the man a question: "If someone offers you a gift and you decline to accept it, to whom does it belong?". The young man replied that the gift would belong to the person who offered it. The Buddha then calmly responded: The young man replied that the gift would belong to the person who offered it. The Buddha then calmly responded: "And it is exactly the same with your anger. If you become angry with me and I do not get insulted, then the anger falls back on you. You are then the only one who becomes unhappy, not me". Although we may be less calm, and might be wise to say nothing, the lesson remains: we don't have to accept everything that is thrown at us.Do you have comments or suggestions about a topic or guest?

In this our next listener's questions episode, High Conflict Institute co-founders Megan Hunter and Bill Eddy address three complex scenarios involving challenging relationship dynamics, boundary setting, and family conflicts.Mike seeks advice about an ex-girlfriend who refuses to leave his home despite receiving money to do so, using suicide threats as leverage. The hosts discuss implementing their new SLIC method (Setting Limits, Imposing Consequences) and the importance of following through with consequences while having appropriate support systems in place. They emphasize that enabling behavior rarely leads to positive change.Leonard from Sweden asks about common response patterns when high-conflict people face criticism. Bill explains typical reactions including denial, blame-shifting, playing victim, and counter-accusations. The hosts emphasize avoiding criticism in favor of future-focused communication and setting clear boundaries with consequences.A couple dealing with high-conflict aging parents seeks strategies for managing necessary family relationships. The hosts discuss balancing caregiving responsibilities with boundary setting, offering practical approaches for limiting problematic behaviors while maintaining connections. They emphasize matter-of-fact communication and consistent enforcement of stated consequences.Throughout these scenarios, common themes emerge: the importance of preparing for predictable reactions, maintaining firm but respectful boundaries, and avoiding the trap of criticism. The episode demonstrates how similar principles can help navigate different types of high-conflict situations, whether with ex-partners, aging parents, or other family members who exhibit challenging behaviors.Additional ResourcesPersonal GrowthNew Ways for Families ® Online ClassConflict Influencer® Class (6 weeks on Zoom)BooksSLIC Solutions for Conflict (pre-order)It's All Your FaultOur New World of Adult BulliesConsultationsBook us for a consultation about your high-conflict situation or legal caseTrainingInquire about having us train your organizationConnect With UsVisit High Conflict Institute: highconflictinstitute.comSubmit questions for Bill and MeganBrowse our complete collection of books and resources in our online store—available in print and e-book formatsFind these show notes and all past episode notes on our websiteWatch this episode on YouTube!Important NoticeOur discussions focus on behavioral patterns rather than diagnoses.

 If you're new to meditation, this episode is perfect for you because I'm going to teach you my unique approach from the ground up. And if you're already meditating using my advanced techniques, today we're diving deep into why this practice is so much more powerful than what most teachers will tell you. Now, why am I so confident that meditation is a portal? Because I've experienced it myself, and I've guided hundreds of thousands of you through this same journey. Today, I'm going to teach you my style of meditation—the style that's transformed my life and the lives of so many in our community. Your mind isn't something to suppress—it's the most powerful reality-creation tool in the universe. And meditation? It's how you learn to pilot that tool with precision. Every night when you dream, your consciousness travels to other realities. You experience full sensory environments, interact with beings, live entire storylines. Your brain doesn't know the difference between what you're experiencing in the dream and what you call "real life."  

Mediation can make one of life's hardest transitions less overwhelming for families with kids who need extra care. That's what divorce mediator, Joe Dillon, conveyed when he joined me to talk about what happens when families with complicated kids go through divorce. Joe shares how his own childhood experience shaped his work, why mediation can be a healthier alternative to litigation, and how things like parenting plans, child support, and property division become even more complex when children have developmental or medical needs. We also discuss the importance of stability, creative problem-solving, and putting kids' needs first, even in the midst of major life changes.

My guest is Dr. David DeSteno, PhD, a professor of psychology at Northeastern University. We discuss science, God and religion, including what science can and can't reveal about the existence of God and where religious faith and science do and do not align. We also discuss why questions about life's origins, miracles and the afterlife have persisted across time. Dr. DeSteno explains how religious rituals cause meaningful improvements in mental and physical health and how prayer and gratitude can markedly reduce stress, increase honesty and compassion and buffer against loneliness and despair. Finally, we explore what distinguishes religions and mission-based communities from cults, and we discuss the role that communities such as 12-step and Burning Man play in modern life.
