When a family sailing journey ends in capture by child soldiers during Mozambique's civil war, a man must protect his children while confronting the unsettling truth that his captors are both perpetrators of violence and children shaped by it. Today's episode featured Dave Muller. Dave has written about his experiences in a book entitled, “Not Child's Play”, available where books are sold or at https://notchildsplay.co.uk/ You can email Dave at dave.muller@notchildsplay.co.za Dave is on Instagram @davenotchildsplay, on Facebook @Dave Muller and on YouTube @DaveMuller-NotChildsPlayIn the 1960s and 1970s, both South Africa and Mozambique were part of the larger decolonization of Africa, with South Africa gaining full independence from Britain in 1961 and Mozambique gaining independence from Portugal in 1975. However, in the decolonization process, both were thrown into proxy battles, between old structures clinging to power and the larger global cold war between communist and capitalist superpowers. South Africa, even after independence, was still ruled by a white minority government, under the National Party. The National Party was populated mostly by the white ethnic group known as Afrikaners who spoke a language called Afrikaans. The National Party instituted apartheid, a brutally oppressive system of institutionalized racial segregation and white supremacy enforced in South Africa from 1948 to the early 1990s. South Africa shares a northeastern border with Mozambique. When Mozambique gained independence in 1975, they were ruled by the Communist party known as FRELIMO. FRELIMO became a major force opposing apartheid in neighboring South Africa. The South African apartheid government, in response to FRELIMO's opposition, actively destabilized Mozambique from the inside by propping up a rebel group known as RENAMO. This led to a violent 15-year civil war in Mozambique, between the ruling, communist-backed FRELIMO party and the South African-backed RENAMO rebel group. In the first part of today's episode, you'll hear our storyteller speak about growing up in South Africa during apartheid as a white man, but he was not an Afrikaner, and grew up in a family that was opposed to apartheid. The second part of the story takes place in Mozambique, where he and his family are held by the RENAMO rebel group and caught in the chaos and fighting between FRELIMO and RENAMO, the two warring factions in the civil war there. Of course there is much more to say about all of this, and Dave will speak to some of these issues as he experienced them. I encourage you all to read more about the brutal and complex history of decolonization and apartheid in Africa. And one final note, you'll hear Dave talking about “Arwen” several times. In case it isn't clear right away, he is referring to his boat that he built.

Most anger isn't about the thing. It's about what the thing means: “Someone just messed with my control.” When your expectations get violated... plans change,d a process breaks, a person does something “unreasonable”. Your nervous system reads it like a little mugging. And then you get reactance: that hot impulse to push back, prove a point, slam the door, unsubscribe from the whole situation. What we look at today is simple, but not easy: trade courtroom mode (“who's wrong?”) for lab mode (“what's true?”): Label the “freedom threat” out loud before you react Swap blame for one clean question: “What assumption just broke?” Redesign the trigger: reduce surprise, increase choice, add clarity Press play and turn your next spike of anger into an experiment that sets you free.

During our conversation, he breaks down what "psychic surgery" actually means, how he identifies energetic distortions in individuals, and the role higher-dimensional beings play in his work.   We explore his latest book, History, Truth and Healing, where he outlines a bold perspective: that extraterrestrial forces have influenced human history and consciousness on a level most people don't recognize. He shares his view on energetic implants, frequency manipulation, and the idea that humanity is currently undergoing a massive ascension shift.   Is this spiritual warfare? Psychological archetypes? Interdimensional beings? We ask the hard questions.   Throughout the episode, we challenge and explore: What exactly happens during a remote psychic surgery? How does he differentiate between trauma-based issues and external attachments? Are Arcturian beings literal extraterrestrials or higher consciousness archetypes? Can these claims be verified or measured? What responsibility do spiritual healers carry when working with vulnerable people?   Dr. Macklin also addresses skepticism directly. In a field often criticized for lacking scientific validation, he explains how he responds to critics and what he believes science may one day discover about multidimensional realities.   One of the most compelling moments comes when we discuss fear — whether fear feeds negative forces or whether it's simply part of awakening. We dive into the concept of ascension timelines, the energetic state of the planet, and whether humanity is in the middle of a spiritual inflection point.   As always on 222 Paranormal, this is not about blind belief or instant dismissal — it's about exploration. We approach the unknown with curiosity, grounded questioning, and respect for personal experience. Whether you view these concepts as literal cosmic events or symbolic frameworks for inner transformation, this episode will stretch your thinking.   If you've ever wondered about: Entity attachments Psychic surgery Spiritual warfare Extraterrestrial influence Ascension symptoms Energetic healing Higher-dimensional beings This is an episode you won't want to miss. The conversation is intense, expansive, and at times unsettling — but it ultimately circles back to one powerful theme: sovereignty. What does it mean to reclaim your energy, your consciousness, and your spiritual authority in a complex and chaotic world? Turn down the lights, lean in, and decide for yourself.   Welcome to the 222 Paranormal Podcast, your gateway to the captivating world of the supernatural.

What if some of the grief you carry isn't entirely yours? In this episode we'll open what Francis Weller identified as the Fifth Gate of Grief: ancestral grief. We're talking about the unacknowledged, untended sorrows of those who came before us: lost languages, severed connections to land and ritual, collective traumas like war, displacement, and genocide. But we're also talking about the science; specifically, epigenetics and how it can help explain how those experiences literally get woven into our biology and passed down through generations, even when we don't know the stories. The good news? What gets passed down can also be healed. You don't have to carry rancid snacks in your backpack forever (you'll get that reference when you listen). And this gate, like all the others, ultimately opens into something more expansive — resilience, power, and the steady ground of equanimity. This episode is part of a 10-part series on grief.

In this episode of Beth of Fresh Air, Beth welcomes a modern Renaissance man — filmmaker, teacher, actor, health coach specializing in the Love Your Liver approach, truth lover, a devoted student of his own psyche, adept in the work of G. I. Gurdjieff and Carl Jung.In a culture that prizes specialization — where the right hand no longer knows what the left one does — this conversation explores the forgotten art of being whole.What does it mean to develop mastery across domains?Physical and nutritional intelligence.
Mental and logical rigor.
Creative expression.
Technical skill.
Emotional navigation.
Psychological self-awareness.Not as hobbies.
Not as surface sampling.
But as disciplined, embodied development.This episode examines the difference between being “well-rounded” and cultivating true range — the kind that requires continually entering arenas where you are not yet competent, breaking new ground, and resisting identity built on narrow expertise.
Together, we will explore:* Why specialization culture fragments the psyche* Mastery across physical, mental, creative, and technical realms* Gurdjieff's work on attention and mechanical living* Jung's individuation and the integration of opposites* The creative process as psychological revelation* Why staying in your strength is a subtle form of stagnation* The discipline required to expand range* Wholeness as lived practice, not theory
This is not a romantic conversation about talent.
It's a sober inquiry into integration.What would it mean to refuse fragmentation?
To build capacity across domains?
To become harder to categorize — and more fully human? A wide-ranging, grounded dialogue on mastery, psyche, embodiment, and the responsibility of conscious development.

My calling has truly been a life-or-death matter. After a decade as a corporate VP in my family's firm, eight transformative trips to India, and a three-year battle with cancer nearly 25 years ago, I turned to archetypes and deep deprogramming work to save my life.Despite doing everything wrong based on limited health knowledge, I accessed the hidden inner roots of what was keeping me sick, stuck, and unconscious. Letting those patterns go changed everything. I went from dying to living almost overnight.Today, I help people who love truth more than their beliefs—people who want to serve with their life's work and walk their Hero's Journey—to deprogram the beast system from within and stop unconsciously feeding the forces that harm us.I host the King Hero interview series, where I spotlight leaders, entrepreneurs, movement makers, and lovers of freedom who are carving new paths in a world that desperately needs them. And I also share my own voice, insights, and stories through my new solo podcast, Beth of Fresh Air.

Another episode where the guest is not a sense-making prophet or a galaxy-brained guru, as we engage in academic dialogos with Oxford psychologist Andrew Przybylski. This is a preview of our Decoding Academia series on Patreon (now 30+ episodes deep), where we swap internet gurus and rhetoric for actual researchers and empirical debates.Andrew's work spans motivation, gaming, and digital technology. His most recent crime is that he studies the impact of technology and has not found evidence that it is destroying wellbeing and ushering in civilisational collapse. We discuss the ongoing moral panic around smartphones, social media, and teenagers' allegedly pulverised minds and why much of the debate rests on statistical techniques roughly equivalent to staring deeply at Excel spreadsheets and hammering SPSS until the desired narrative appears.We get into measurement problems around “screen time,” why trivially small correlations become front-page catastrophes, and how the discourse rewards confident storytelling far more than (boring) careful causal inference. Also covered: cross-cultural evidence, the policy implications of airport pop science bestsellers, and the potential civilisational threat posed by Warhammer 40k.If you enjoy episodes where we analyse methods rather than metaphysics, the full Decoding Academia series lives on Patreon.Relevant Research (Przybylski & collaborators)Andrew's Academic Profile and Personal WebsiteFassi, L., Ferguson, A.

On July 17, 2006, 29-year-old Dave Buschow collapsed and died from dehydration less than 100 yards from water during a Boulder Outdoor Survival School (BOSS) course in Utah. Despite showing clear signs of severe dehydration for hours—pale skin, muscle cramps, slurred speech, and hallucinations—his guide never offered the emergency water he carried in his pack.

Words like “mind control” and “brainwashing” get tossed around, but it is a very real science and a very dangerous game that former CIA operative and now conservative talk show host Buck Sexton calls by its scientific name of “menticide,” the murder of the mind. Psychological attacks are real, and the concept of menticide dates to a Dutch psychologist who studied how totalitarian governments control the thoughts of their populations. Joost Meerloo witnessed and studied the way Josef Stalin, Vladimir Lenin, and Mao Zedong used the insights from Pavlov's experiments on dogs against people. His most famous work is called The Rape of the Mind.

What if the loss you're carrying doesn't have a name — no death, no disaster, just a quiet, persistent ache that something was always missing? In this episode of Joy Lab, we'll look at Gate Four of our grief series: What We Expected But Did Not Receive. Drawing from Francis Weller's The Wild Edge of Sorrow, we'll explore the grief that comes from never being fully welcomed, seen, or celebrated for exactly who you are — a loss so subtle it often masquerades as personal failure. This episode offers a deeply compassionate and scientifically grounded look at why so many of us feel vaguely unfulfilled and how we can actually do something about it. Spoiler: it starts with grieving what you were owed. This episode is part of a 10-part series on grief.

If your team is cooked, your NOI is next.Burnout is not a “people problem.”It's a system failure.Exhausted teams make poor decisions.They communicate less effectively.They disengage quietly.Quiet disengagement is the most expensive kind because you don't see it until service breaks.Ignore burnout long enough, and you pay for it later.Turnover spikes.Resident experience slips.Errors show up in turns, work orders, and rent-ready quality.Reputational harm follows because bad news travels instantly.Burnout is expensive.Not just in payroll churn.In craftsmanship.In follow-through.In how the office treats people when the lobby gets hot.Here's the tip.Know the signs.Missed follow-ups.Low morale.Resident complaints that no one has the energy to solve.Team members who clock in but mentally check out.You can feel it.In the same way, you can smell a house when you walk in.Dirty socks or apple pie.Tension or steadiness.A property has a scent, too.Leaders don't get to pretend they don't smell it.You have to acknowledge it.Then you have to fix the system that created it.Bonus tip.Know the solutions.Clear roles.Workload pacing.Psychological recovery built into the cadence of the calendar.Ask this in your next ops review.Where is recovery tracked?Not “vacation policy.”Recovery as an operational KPI.Because preventive maintenance isn't just for boilers.It's for people.Put burnout on the agenda this week.

Many managers believe pressure drives performance. Others focus heavily on support. But high-performing teams don't choose one or the other. They operate with both.When expectations are high, but support is low, people become defensive, stressed, and disengaged. When support is high but expectations are low, performance suffers. The real challenge for managers is learning how to balance intensity with kindness so teams feel both challenged and supported.Fortunately, this week's guest shares a practical and grounded approach to building this balance. Evan Marks, a mental performance coach who has worked in high-stakes environments, explains why people don't rise to the occasion but fall to their level of training. He also shares how structure, emotional regulation, and clear communication help teams perform under pressure.In this conversation, we explore how to create psychological safety without lowering standards, how to shift from feedback to “feedforward,” and why leaders must model ownership and emotional control if they want their teams to do the same.Get FREE mini-episode guides with the big idea from the week's episode delivered to your inbox when you subscribe to my weekly email.Join the conversation now!

Greg and Lewis sit down with gaming psychology pioneer and Quantic Foundry co-founder Nick Yee to answer these and many other questions.

In today's polarized social and political climate, leadership has become not only emotionally demanding but, in some cases, physically and psychologically dangerous. From targeted violence against corporate leaders to escalating threats toward public officials, judges, election workers, and lawmakers, leaders are operating under unprecedented scrutiny, hostility, and fear.In this episode of Hope Illuminated, I join Jeff Gorter, Vice President of Clinical Crisis Response at R3 Continuum, to explore what it truly means to lead under assault and how organizations can respond with clarity, compassion, and coordinated care when crises unfold in real time. This conversation weaves together stories, science, and strategy to illuminate how threat and violence ripple beyond individuals to impact the mental health of entire organizations and communities.

Growth mindset gets thrown around a lot… but what does it actually look like in real life? In this episode, I sit down with Francie Jain for a refreshingly honest conversation about entrepreneurship, failure, feedback, and why success is far messier (and more personal) than social media would have you believe. We dive into: • Why entrepreneurship isn't necessarily "in your blood" • The dangerous illusion of comparing yourself to other businesses • Revenue vs profit (yes, there's a BIG difference) • How growth mindset really works when things go sideways • Psychological safety, feedback, and "hearing what wasn't said" • Why a rising tide truly lifts all boats This episode is equal parts mindset shift, reality check, and laughter - because building a business is serious… but you don't have to take yourself so seriously. If you've ever questioned whether you're "cut out" for entrepreneurship or felt stuck comparing your progress to others, this conversation will hit home.

How can you succeed creatively in an age of generative artificial intelligence? In this episode of The Science of Creativity, Keith Sawyer speaks with creativity keynote speaker and author James Taylor about his new book SuperCreativity. His guiding metaphor is the music concert. Sitting in the audience, we naturally focus on the stars playing on stage. Taylor played a critical role that remained invisible to the audience. He working backstage, managing internationally successful artists. Along with teams of roadies, lighting experts, and sound engineers, he helped keep things running backstage at venues like the Royal Albert Hall. That experience shaped a central insight of his book: creativity is rarely the product of a lone genius. Instead, it emerges from collaboration and group dynamics, whether in jazz ensembles or business teams, or live concert tours. The conversation ranges widely, touching on creative pairs, improvisation, flow, wellbeing, sustainability, and human-AI collaboration. Taylor is bullish on AI and creativity. He argues that AI should be viewed as a creative collaborator. He provides some suggestions about how to use AI to increase your creative potential, such as identifying your cognitive blind spots and helping you see your own work in different ways. Key Takeaways Creativity happens backstage. Much of the creativity we see, consume, and love, is dependent on invisible collaborators. People like editors, coaches, producers, and managers. Creativity is a social system, not a solo act. Creative pairs matter more than lone geniuses. From musicians and editors to CEOs and CFOs, sustained creative excellence often emerges from trusted partnerships where ideas are challenged, refined, and strengthened. Psychological safety fuels innovation. The best creative teams encourage dissent, questioning, and constructive pushback—not polite agreement or deference to authority. Constraints don't limit creativity—they enable it. Whether in jazz improvisation or organizational innovation, well-designed constraints create the structure that allows originality to flourish. Creative flow requires protected time. Deep creative work can't happen in 15-minute calendar fragments. Leaders and individuals need to intentionally carve out longer blocks of "maker time" to enter flow states. Creativity and wellbeing are deeply connected. Engaging in creative activities enhances mental health and personal growth. AI works best as a creative collaborator, not a creator. Don't ask AI to do the creative work for you. You're still the creative agent, but use AI as a thoughtful peer. Use it to come up with new questions, to offer alternative viewpoints, and to help get you out of cognitive ruts. Humans still rule at taste, judgment, and imagination.

That's why hosts Sean Pyles and Elizabeth Ayoola break down three behavioral finance biases (loss aversion, herd mentality, and overconfidence) and how they can lead to costly spending and investing decisions. Then, NerdWallet editor Caitlin Constantine joins to answer a listener's question about whether buying a home still makes sense as homeowners insurance premiums skyrocket and coverage gets harder to find in some areas. They dig into “escrow shock,” FAIR plans, why some homeowners go uninsured, and practical ways to plan for higher housing costs. Plus: what renters can and should protect with renters insurance.

Psychological safety is often described as a “soft” leadership concept — something rooted in feelings, kindness, or culture. But that's not what it is. In Episode 673 of Daily Influence, Brian Smith reframes psychological safety as a structural performance system — not a mood, not a personality trait, and not an abstract cultural aspiration. When leaders see silence, hesitation, disengagement, or operational breakdown, the issue is rarely personality. It's structure speaking. In this episode, Brian explores: Why safety is a performance system — not a feeling The hidden link between fear, silence, and operational inefficiency How leaders unintentionally reward the very behaviors they later try to correct What feels cultural is often structural. You don't hope for psychological safety. You design it. Because structure is leadership.

On episode 254, we welcome Aaron Poochigian to discuss his new translation of Meditations by Marcus Aurelius, Aaron's struggles with addiction and how the book helped him in recovery, suffering as stemming from interpretations of rather than facts about the world, meaning as stemming from virtue rather than reputation, learning to accept all of nature to manage suffering, applying the concept of 'strange beauty' to discover it everywhere, and the psychotherapeutic elements of Stoic philosophy. Aaron Poochigian is a poet, classics scholar, and translator who lives and writes in New York City. His work has appeared in such newspapers and journals as The Financial Times, The New York Review of Books, and Poetry Magazine. He's the author of Four Walks in Central Park: A Poetic Guide to the Park, and his translations include Stung with Love (Penguin UK). His new translation, available now, is Marcus Aurelius' Meditations. | Aaron Poochigian | ► Website | https://www.aaronpoochigian.com ► Twitter | https://x.com/Poochigian ► Meditations Book | https://amzn.to/4tO7Uyr Where you can find us: | Seize The Moment Podcast | ► Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/SeizeTheMoment ► Twitter | https://twitter.com/seize_podcast ► Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/seizethemoment ► TikTok | https://www.tiktok.com/@seizethemomentpodcast

Classic Edgar Allan Poe horror stories—gothic terror, madness, murder, and psychological dread—all in one chilling anthology. If you love classic horror, dark literature, and Victorian-era nightmares, this Poe compilation is built for you: guilt that won't stay buried, revenge sealed behind bricks, obsession that rots the mind, and survival-horror fear sharpened to a razor's edge.Inside this episode:• The Black Cat — a confession soaked in alcohol-fueled violence, guilt, and the uncanny feeling that something is watching from the dark.• Morella — grief, identity, and a haunting that crawls into the heart of a family and refuses to let go.• The Cask of Amontillado — Poe's coldest revenge tale: a smiling invitation, a wine cellar, and a final brick laid in silence.• The Pit and the Pendulum — pure claustrophobic survival horror: imprisonment, panic, and the merciless countdown of the pendulum's arc.• Berenice — obsession turns grotesque as love, memory, and fixation spiral into something unspeakable.Whether you're here for classic ghost stories, murder confessions, or psychological horror that still hits hard today—press play, turn the lights down, and let Poe do what he does best.

In the new book “A Driving Anger: The Psychology of Road Rage” Anne O'Dwyer investigates the psychological forces that make driving such fertile ground for anger. She explains how the illusion of anonymity, cognitive distortions, and the stressors of modern life can converge on the roadway turning minor inconveniences into outsized reactions.

In this episode of Quick Book Reviews, Philippa is joined by bestselling author Will Dean to discuss his haunting psychological thriller Adrift — a novel that explores control, isolation, and the quiet terror of living with someone who manipulates from the shadows.Will talks candidly about his off-grid life in the Swedish woods, why he writes his first drafts in intense six-week bursts, and how emotional stories like Adrift can take years to fully realise.Together, they discuss:Writing while living off grid and why isolation fuels creativityWhy Will avoids the publishing “noise” and trendsHow Adrift took five years to complete, despite a fast first draftWriting claustrophobic tension without exhausting the readerThe psychology of control, gaslighting, and quiet manipulationWriting from a child's point of view and the emotional toll it takesWhy Will leaves much of the violence off the pageThe fear and excitement of starting a new novelHow rereading favourite books shapes his writingThe current reading crisis and why encouraging children to read matters more than everWill also shares what he's currently reading, why he rereads authors like Shirley Jackson and Sarah Waters, and answers the most important question of all: what powered the writing of Adrift (spoiler: frozen dates, not biscuits).A thoughtful, intense, and revealing conversation about storytelling, fear, and the importance of noticing unheard people in unseen places.Follow Quick Book Reviews for book recommendations, author interviews, and weekly podcast episodes.

This week on Black on Black Cinema, the crew returns to discuss the 2025 psychological thriller, "The Dutchman." Based on Amiri Baraka's groundbreaking 1964 Obie Award-winning one-act play, the film follows Clay (André Holland), a successful but troubled Black businessman navigating a crumbling marriage with his wife Kaya (Zazie Beetz). After a therapy session with the enigmatic Dr. Amiri (Stephen McKinley Henderson), Clay encounters Lula (Kate Mara), a seductive and sinister white woman on a New York subway, who draws him into a dangerous psychological game of cat and mouse that forces him to confront his identity, his marriage, and the concept of double consciousness. Directed by Andre Gaines and co-written with Qasim Basir, the film also stars Aldis Hodge and Lauren E. Banks. The crew digs into the film's exploration of race, assimilation, Black male identity, and whether this modern adaptation does justice to Baraka's original text — or if the meta-theatrical approach gets in its own way.Black on Black Cinema is a long-running podcast featuring in-depth Black movie reviews and frank conversations that matter to the Black community.

Sheriff Chris Nanos stood at a podium and called the Guthrie family "victims, plain and simple." He said suggesting otherwise is cruel. He begged the media to report with compassion. That was yesterday — seventeen days after Nancy Guthrie disappeared, and only after weeks of online accusations, body language analysis from strangers, and conspiracy threads targeting Savannah's sister Annie and her husband Tommaso for the simple fact that they were the last people to see Nancy alive.On Hidden Killers, psychotherapist Shavaun Scott — with three decades of experience working with trauma survivors and victims of violence — examines the psychological reality the Guthrie family has been enduring. This isn't about the investigation. This is about what it does to a human being to experience the worst moment of their life in public, while strangers with no information and no expertise decide you're guilty based on how your grief looks on Instagram.Scott explains ambiguous loss — the specific psychological devastation of not knowing whether someone you love is alive or dead — and why it's considered one of the most destructive forms of trauma in clinical research. She addresses what happens when someone whose entire professional identity is built on control, like Savannah Guthrie, is suddenly stripped of all control, all information, and all privacy simultaneously. She examines the compounding trauma of watching the investigation make mistakes in real time — contaminated evidence, delayed footage retrieval, misdirected lab work — while having no authority to demand better.And she confronts a question the internet doesn't want to hear: public exoneration doesn't undo the damage of public accusation. The threads still exist. The screenshots are still circulating. The people who saw the accusations may never see the retraction. From a clinical standpoint, the wound of being falsely suspected may never fully close — even after the sheriff says your name is clear.#NancyGuthrie #SavannahGuthrie #GuthrieFamilyCleared #AmbiguousLoss #VictimBlaming #GriefOnCamera #ShavaunScott #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimePodcast #PsychologicalTraumaJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

I've been hearing from so many of you that you're feeling overwhelmed by what's happening in the world right now. And if you are, you're normal. Because it is overwhelming. We were not designed to be in this hyper-aroused nervous system state for as long as we've been. Our bodies aren't meant for it. Our minds aren't meant for it. And yet here we are, living in a 24-hour bad news cycle that literally never ends. You know, it didn't used to be this way. There was a time when the nightly news was one person reporting on the day's events without editorializing. Now it's a circus of talking heads and pundits and narratives coming at you from every direction. And if you're trying to be a well-informed, good global citizen without being buried under a tidal wave of bad news, that's a really hard line to walk. If you're feeling overwhelmed, hopeless, anxious, or paralyzed, this one is for you. And you're not alone. I created a free guide including a guided meditation called One Love to go along with this post. You can grab it at terricole.com/guide. There are things you can do to keep your mental, physical, and emotional health intact right now. None of them cost money. Most of them are about changing your mind about what you're allowed to give yourself. So here's my psychological survival kit. Read the show notes for today's episode at terricole.com/805

The Learning Leader Show with Ryan Hawk Go to www.LearningLeader.com This is brought to you by Insight Global. If you need to hire one person, hire a team of people, or transform your business through Talent or Technical Services, Insight Global's team of 30,000 people around the world has the hustle and grit to deliver. www.InsightGlobal.com/LearningLeader My guest: Tom Hardin was known as "Tipper X" during Operation Perfect Hedge, the largest insider trading investigation in history. After making four illegal trades based on inside information, the FBI approached him on a Manhattan street corner and convinced him to wear a wire over 40 times, helping build 20 of the 81 cases. Key Learnings  Ambiguity is where ethical lines blur. Tom's boss said, "Do whatever it takes," after the hedge fund lost money, and as a junior employee, Tom didn't ask clarifying questions. The undiscussable becomes undiscussable. Leaders give ambiguous messages, then pretend they weren't ambiguous, employees get confused and don't question the boss, and you end up with a culture of silence. Making decisions in isolation is dangerous. The information came to Tom and he didn't talk to his boss or his wife (who probably would've slapped him around for crossing ethical lines). Psychological safety requires muscle memory. You have to practice saying "I'm just going to ask some clarifying questions here" when your boss gives ambiguous orders. Bad decisions aren't mistakes. Mistakes are made without intent, but bad decisions are made with intent. Tom told himself for years he made "mistakes," but on a drive home from speaking at a keynote, he realized: "There's no way I made mistakes. I made bad decisions." Never say never. Tom argues you're more susceptible to falling down your own slippery slope when you think "that would never be me." 80% of employees can be swayed either way. 10% are morally incorruptible, 10% are a compliance nightmare, and 80% can be influenced by the culture around them. Tone at the top means nothing. Company culture isn't the tone at the top or glossy shareholder letters; it's the behaviors employees believe will be rewarded or put them ahead. Reward character, not just results. You can't just focus on short-term performance and dollar goals without understanding how the business was made and what was behind the performance. The question isn't "what?" but "how?" If you're just focused on the numbers and not on how you got there, you have the opportunity to end up in a slippery slope situation. Celebrate people who live your values. Companies that spend millions on trips for people who live out shared values (not financial performance) are putting their money where their mouth is. Leaders must share their own ethical dilemmas. We've all been in situations where we could go left or right, and sharing how you worked through those moments makes you more endearing and a better leader. Keep a rationalization journal. When Tom and his wife have big decisions (or even little things), he writes them down in a rationalization journal and reflects on them once a month. He's still susceptible to going down another slippery slope, so checking himself on those passing thoughts improves his character over time. It's not what you say, it's what you do. Just like kids see what parents do (not what they say), employees see what behaviors leaders actually reward. $46,000 cost him $23 million. A business school professor calculated Tom would've made $23 million if he'd stayed on the hedge fund path, but he made $46,000 on the four illegal trades before getting caught. His wife was his rock. 85% of marriages end when something like this happens, and she had every right to leave. They just got married, no kids yet. But she stayed. When Tom interviewed her for the book 20 years later, she said, "All I remember is you accepted responsibility immediately. You didn't make up excuses." Running pulled him out of a shame spiral. Tom got obese as a stay-at-home dad. His wife signed him up for a 5K race (and beat him while pushing a jogging stroller). Just crossing that finish line lit a fire. He ended up running a 100-mile race.  Doing hard things teaches you that you can do hard things. When Tom had to start a speaking business because they were running out of money, he said, "I can do this" because he'd already put his body through ultramarathons. No challenge is insurmountable. He ended up with something better. It's not about status or money anymore; it's about who he is with his family and his relationships now. Windshield mentality, not rearview mirror. Tom can't change the past, but he can look forward instead of backward. A lot of people in their twenties do stupid stuff (maybe not to this degree), but now, in his forties, he can learn from it. Why not embrace it rather than try to scrub it off the internet? Eulogy virtues versus resume virtues. In his twenties, Tom only thought about resume virtues (how much money, the next job, the next stepping stone) and never about eulogy virtues (what people will say about his character when it's all over). What will people say at your eulogy? Will they still be talking about those four trades, or will they talk about who you became after? More Learning #226 - Steve Wojciechowski: How to Win Every Day #281 - George Raveling: Wisdom from MLK Jr to Michael Jordan #637 - Tom Ryan: Chosen Suffering: Become Elite in Life & Leadership Reflection Questions Tom's boss gave him an ambiguous message ("do whatever it takes"), and as a junior employee, he didn't ask clarifying questions. Think about the last ambiguous instruction you received from leadership. Did you ask clarifying questions, or did you fill in the blanks yourself? What's stopping you from creating psychological safety to ask next time? Tom argues that 80% of employees can be swayed either way by culture. Look at your organization right now. What behaviors are actually being rewarded? If someone asked your team "what gets you ahead here?" what would they honestly say? Tom asks: "Will people be talking about the resume virtues (money, titles, achievements) or the eulogy virtues (character, relationships, who you were) when you're gone?" What's one eulogy virtue you need to start prioritizing today, even if it means slowing down on resume building?
