" Listening is a relational skill. It's not just about I know what you know, so now we can make better decisions. It creates connection to feel heard. It creates trust and safety to know that I actually have heard what you have to say. It has that relational impact in addition to the informational part."Karen & Paul share the importance of listening skills in building effective relationships. They introduce the technique of mirroring, inspired by Imago Relationship Theory, as a key method for improving listening. This involves repeating back what the other person says to ensure understanding and asking follow-up questions like 'Did I get you?' and 'Is there more?'
This episode explores the deep connections between movement, body awareness, identity, and belonging, especially as experienced by people who navigate multiple cultures. The conversation dives into Marcia Bonasso Warren's unique approach to “embodied code switching,” and the role of somatic awareness in feeling at home within our bodies across shifting cultural contexts.Key Topics Discussed:What is Somatic Awareness?Originates from the Greek word for “body” (soma).Goes beyond physical presence—encompasses bodily signals, wisdom, five senses, and cultural body norms.Importance of asking: “What have my cultures told me about my body?” and recognizing how societal norms affect our sense of self.Belonging and the BodyThe sensory cues that signal belonging or otherness, from environmental context to body types reflected around us.Somatic experiences of cultural fit and difference, such as feeling physically at ease or vigilant in certain environments.Embodied Code Switching & The SIA LoopSIA Loop: Sensation → Interpretation → Action. A tool for attuning to both internal body messages and cross-cultural cues, slowing down reactions, and choosing responses intentionally.The cross-cultural transition is often first detected in the body, not the mind.Examples include changing posture, tone, or movement in response to different cultural expectations (e.g., "shrinking" or shifting vocal inflection in Tokyo).The Power of Mirroring and Interpersonal SynchronyMirroring (matching movement, posture, or inflection) naturally helps connect with others and foster belonging - as long as it's authentic, not imitation.Shared rhythms (like dance, group chants, celebrations) create community and signal inclusion even without shared language.Memory, Longing, and Grief in the Globally Mobile LifeBodily memories connect us to places and cultures left behind—there's always a sense of longing (“saudade”) for experiences that cannot fully accompany us home.Creating rituals or writing can help honor these connections and process grief.Advice for Global Nomads and Culturally Fluid IndividualsYou have permission to own your unique, multifaceted identity.Being able to cross cultures with awareness is a superpower—it enhances empathy, flexibility, and compassion.Allow yourself time to know both your hosts and yourself; notice, listen, and include your body in this ongoing conversation.“Home is in my body now, because this is what's taken me to all those places. And I still have me.”“There's always a part of you that can't come with you to the next place, but your body has a memory of those places, and because of that, it stays connected.”“Folks that move in between cultures and with different cultures, with conscious awareness... it's a superpower. And I don't say that lightly.”ResourcesBook: Movement and Identity: Multiculturalism, Somatic Awareness and Embodied Code SwitchingWhere to find Marcia Bonasso Warren: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marcia-bonato-warren/https://www.youtube.com/@MarciaBonatoWarrenhttps://www.facebook.com/MarciaBonatoWarrenConnect With UsIf you enjoyed this episode, subscribSupport the showHome is Where Your Story Crosses Borders!We aim to inspire expat solutions, by helping you navigate global living with ease and grace.
Eric speaks with two former law enforcement officers, Chris and Dave, regarding their experiences with hostage negotiation training and undercover work, particularly on a Vice detail involving arrests for public indecency and the pursuit of pedophiles. They discuss how the principles of negotiation skills, such as active listening, mirroring, and building rapport, are surprisingly transferable to the world of sales and everyday life. The conversation shifts to intense anecdotes from their police careers, including a close-quarters knife fight and the emotionally challenging nature of interviewing suspects like child predators. Finally, they touch upon the challenges of modern law enforcement, including political pressures and issues within their former department, concluding with a discussion of Dave's current local-focused podcast. Key Takeaways: Use active listening, mirroring, and paraphrasing techniques in everyday conversations. Mirroring is a simple technique of repeating a person's words to build rapport and prompt them to elaborate. Deliberately incorporate moments of silence into conversations to allow thoughts to gather and enhance impact. Continually practice negotiation philosophies because skills will degrade if you do not use them regularly. Identify potential verbal triggers beforehand so you know which topics or words to carefully avoid during sensitive discussions.

Signature Style Systems ~ Certified Personal Stylist, Image & Color Consultant, True Colour Expert
What if discovering your personal style could start with something joyful instead of something stressful? In today's episode, I'm sharing the story of how I inverted the traditional style process—putting seeing beauty at the very beginning instead of starting with body type rules and expert formulas. Last week in Episode 107, I shared what my mentor Carla Mathis taught me: what you love aesthetically is what looks like you. This week, I'm telling you how I took that wisdom and created The Aesthetic Mirror—a process that helps women discover their style by seeing beauty in what they're naturally drawn to. In this episode, you'll hear: • The divine epiphany that led me to invert the process • What happened when I tried this approach for the first time • The story of a client who was so excited she told my daughter at the mall • Why seeing beauty through group reflection is so powerful • How The Aesthetic Mirror works and who it's for Core insight: Most people think you need expert analysis before you can trust your style choices, but actually seeing beauty in your own aesthetic preferences is the anchor for authentic style. Ready to experience this yourself? Learn how to gather your friends for a private Aesthetic Mirror party. Let's connect!

Venting can be powerful, it helps us release stress, feel heard, and connect with the people we love. When done well, it's a healthy way to process emotions. But here's the catch: venting can also become addictive. Instead of calming us down, it can spiral into drama, negativity, or constant complaining.In this episode, we'll explore how to guide your kids, and your whole family, in using venting as a healthy tool instead of a destructive habit. You'll learn how to create safe, supportive “venting sessions,” what signs to watch for when things start going off track, and strategies to keep the focus on connection rather than conflict.Venting doesn't have to create chaos. With the right approach, it can bring your family closer and teach your kids lifelong emotional regulation skills.Jennifer's Takeaways:Venting: Its Importance and Potential Pitfalls (00:00)Mirroring as a Healthy Venting Technique (02:36)Addressing Underlying Issues and Modeling Appropriate Behavior (10:45)Setting Boundaries and Promoting Respect (11:08)Meet Jennifer KolariJennifer Kolari is the host of the “Connected Parenting” weekly podcast and the co-host of “The Mental Health Comedy” podcast.

Be ready, stay grounded, and communicate clearly — no matter what's at stake.Communicating under pressure isn't just a useful skill — it can be the difference between escalation and resolution. For Chris Voss, former FBI hostage negotiator and CEO of The Black Swan Group, it's a daily discipline built on empathy, self-regulation, and intentional listening. In this expanded conversation from our Spontaneous Speaking miniseries, Voss offers a rare window into the mindset and methods that helped him show up calm, focused, and adaptable when the pressure is sky-high.“Emotional intelligence is an insane accelerator to outcomes,” Voss shares, explaining how empathy, tone, and timing can shift the direction of any conversation. He breaks down techniques like labeling and mirroring, explores how to use silence and word choice strategically, and explains why overthinking can be just as risky as acting too fast. From gut-level pattern recognition to tactical use of voice, Voss shows how communication becomes more impactful when we're not trying to control — but to connect.In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Voss and host Matt Abrahams dive into how negotiation techniques developed for life-or-death situations can be applied far beyond them — offering powerful takeaways for anyone who needs to think clearly under pressure, stay agile in the moment, and communicate effectively when it matters most.Episode Reference Links:Chris Voss Chris's Book: Never Split the Difference Ep.197 Prep or Perish: Mastering In-the-Moment Communication (1 of 3)Ep.198 Pause and Effect: Mastering In-the-Moment Communication (2 of 3)Ep.199 Blunder Pressure: Mastering In-the-Moment Communication (3 of 3)Ep.203 No Script, No Problem: Final Secrets to Speaking Under Pressure (Bonus) Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:50) - Path to Hostage Negotiation (03:42) - Power of Emotional Intelligence (05:00) - Staying Calm Under Pressure (06:10) - Mental Prep & Mindset (07:18) - Trusting Your Gut (07:58) - Avoiding Overthinking (09:01) - Flexibility in Negotiations (10:15) - Listen More, Talk Less (10:31) - Labeling & Mirroring (12:51) - Tone Shapes Impact (14:06) - The Final Three Questions (19:37) - Conclusion *****Thank you to our sponsors:Strawberry.me.

The judgment on Rosh Hashanah is comprehensive: every single human has his or her moment of judgment before God. Even the dead are judged again each year. The judgment covers not only our behavior with respect to fulfilling our obligations to God, it also covers interpersonal matters. If we are meritorious, we will be forgiven for all our sins on Yom Kippur, but that atones only sins down between man and God. For interpersonal sins, we are not forgiven until we appease our friend and elicit their forgiveness. But these two domains are not entirely separate. In this short and sweet podcast sourced from the writings of my grandfather of blessed memory, we learn how important our interpersonal behavior is vis-a-vis our status before God. Now is the time to prepare.– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –DONATE: Please consider supporting the podcasts by making a donation to help fund our Jewish outreach and educational efforts at https://www.torchweb.org/support.php.

Today is day 222 and we are on the section of the Doxology and the Amen. 222. What does “kingdom, power, and glory” mean? Mirroring the first half of the Lord's Prayer, the Church rejoices that God is already reigning over all creation, working out his holy will, and hallowing his Name in earth and heaven. (1 Chronicles 29:11–13; Revelation 5:11–14) We will conclude today with the Doxology of Canticle 10 found on page 88 in the Book of Common Prayer (2019).

Stay sharp, sound confident, and speak with impact — even when you're put on the spot.Communicating clearly is challenging enough when there's time to prepare. But in most situations — whether in meetings, casual conversations, or high-stakes moments — we rarely have the luxury of scripting our words. We must think and speak in real time.Spontaneous communication is a daily challenge, yet few of us receive formal training in how to handle it with poise and confidence.
