Hvis du skal sette deg inn i et verktøy, så sett deg inn i dramatriangelet og kom deg over i TED (The Empowerment Dynamic). Gå fra å være et offer til å bli en skaper. Gå fra å være en redder til å bli en coach. Gå fra å være en angriper til å bli en utfordrer. Er du en av dem, så er du alle. For ila en samtale, så bytter vi rolle og er i alle 3. Du vil ha en hovedrolle som du føler deg mest komfortabel i, men du vil være i alle. Er du klar for å se din egen påvirkning på egne omgivelser? Da er dramatriangelet en fin plass å starte. Det er litt autch, men autch er bedre enn å bli i det som er autch. Det er også paralleller fra Drama Triangelet og inn i tilknytningsstil, traumeresponser (frys, kamp, flykt, fawn respons), og co-dependency (og narsissisme..). https://theempowermentdynamic.com/about/ Klem fra meg, Therese Fallentin Meg finner du her: https://magefolelsen.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/therese-fallentin/ https://www.instagram.com/magefoelelsen.podcast/ https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063836841693

Connie's motivational quote for today is by – Carlto Cuse, “The creative process is not like a situation where you get struck by a single lightning bolt. You have ongoing discoveries, and there are ongoing creative revelations. Yes, it's really helpful to be marching toward a specific destination, but, along the way, you must allow yourself room for your ideas to blossom, take root, and grow.” YouTube: https://youtu.be/nL5ppWNC4Ms Check Out These Highlights: The creative process is designed to produce something you want. If you don't want to create it, then why do it? I find that many of my clients and people I work with, confuse the creative process with problem-solving. You are not creating something new if you simply jump from solving one problem to the next. Creating is bringing something into being that has not been created yet. It is therefore essential that you really care about what you want to create otherwise you are likely to respond to what you think you “should” create. Avoid the dilemma of spending time, your talent, your energy, and your money on things that don't matter to you. Once you have an idea of what that “something” is that you really care about, you become inspired to solve problems to create it and feel inspired to bring something new into being.

“When we focus on outcomes and take creative steps to go after that, we solve problems in service to those. It's not that the Outcome Orientation is all goodness and light and problem free, but that we can tackle the problems that stand in the way of we really want and really care about.” – David Emerald Womeldorff A 2022 Mindset Goal: An Outcome Orientation As we dive into a new year, David Emerald Womeldorff's discussion of problem mindset versus outcome mindset and the 3 Vital Questions is more relevant than ever. It's why I've recapped this popular episode from 2020, especially as we prepare to tackle fresh challenges. David discusses how all leadership begins with self-leadership, and how our mindset paves the way to a desired path. When we approach situations with a problem orientation, it drives anxious, reactive behavior and causes drama. In contrast, an outcome orientation keeps us focused on our passion: what we want to create and what's supporting and aligning with our desired outcome. As the author of The Power of TED and 3 Vital Questions: Transforming Workplace Drama, David makes complex topics easier to understand through his story-telling superpower. Revisiting this conversation reminds me of the power of resilience in the face of organizational challenges and refreshes me as I plan my 2022. Be the Victor, Not the Victim [24:36] “There are two major components to our stepping into and developing our capability as creators. One is to create outcomes. The second is that we as Creators own our capacity to choose our response to whatever is going on in our lives." Create and Generate [33:32] “What actions are you taking? Are you merely reacting to the problems of the moment, or are you taking creative and generative action, including the solving of problems in service to outcomes?” [35:03] “The three basic steps of dynamic tension are first and foremost, focus on the outcome and to be as clear as we can on the outcome, that the outcome can sometimes be clear and concrete – other times it may be more vague and directional.” Resources mentioned in this episode: 3 Vital Questions website: https://bit.ly/2Nsz927 The Power of TED: The Empowerment Dynamic: https://bit.ly/3sM9eCE 3 Vital Questions:Transforming Workplace Drama David Emerald Donna Zajonc Stephen Karpman's Drama Triangle Bob Anderson's episode on Rise Leaders Radio The Leadership Circle Profile Robert Fritz: Structural Tension Rise Leaders' newsletter: https://mailchi.mp/426e78bc9538/subscribe
In Episode Five, we welcome our first female guest and one who gives voice to Narcissistic Abuse Survivors and a perspective that might be hard to hear. Her story of being in a relationship with an extremely abusive, passive-aggressive, covert narcissist is not a rare story, but one that may rarely be heard.

True Narcissists are douchebags! Well, they can be. Narcissism in relationships, Narcissism in the Church or other organizational leadership - it seems to be a hot topic lately and many are still trying to understand it. It tends to creep into even the most beautiful of environments and stifle initially benevolent intentions. In today's episode, Josh and Seth unpack Narcissism and its close proximity to our worlds and how it can negatively influence, control, limit and block a healthy reality or paradigm for where we're at. In this episode you'll learn: Basic characteristics of narcissism and how it develops True healthy masculinity vs. toxic narcissistic masculinity Narcissistic tendencies vs. being a narcissist What Narcissists need to survive How to address your Narcissistic tendencies The Empowerment Dynamic - Victim vs. Creator Quotes “The church environment, in my opinion, is a breeding ground for narcissism because of the whole service mentality.” - Josh “Narcissism finds its safety in controlling” - Josh “You can't open your heart up and not be empathetic. Plant Medicine allows for you to be empathetic” - Seth “They could be a complete asshole and you can still love them but that does not mean you're supposed to stay in that relationship. Love is not always enough.” - Seth [Looks like Nadya didn't do quotes yet for this episode, so I didn't think to listen for quotes, but I kind of remember some things we talked about, so maybe the above will work.] Links Host Name: Josh Cearbaugh https://joshcearbaugh.com https://www.instagram.com/jcearbaugh/ https://facebook.com/joshcearbaugh https://www.jumpstartyourlife.com Links Host Name: Seth Conner https://sethconner.com https://www.instagram.com/sethaconner/ https://www.facebook.com/iSethConner/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/sethaconner/ Companies, Products & Places Mentioned Mushroom Doctor (psilocybin micro-dosing) www.MushroomDoctor.co/shop The Power of TED (The Empowerment Dynamic) (https://www.amazon.com/POWER-TED-EMPOWERMENT-DYNAMIC-Anniversary/dp/0996871802) Default Mode Network (https://psychedelicstoday.com/2020/02/04/psychedelics-and-the-default-mode-network/)
Have you ever felt like there was a wet blanket over your mind or your heart, making it difficult to think or feel good? One reason this may be happening is because of Codependency. We experience codependency in many ways; maybe with where we live, our careers, the climate of our lives in general, but in this episode, Josh and Seth discuss Codependency within relationships. Since they can be the most difficult to navigate, overcoming Codependency in relationships could ultimately help us to overcome it in other areas of our lives as well. In this episode you'll learn: How to identify Codependency in our relationships What to do when the confusion sets in and it's hard to see straight What it looks like when we enable boundary violations How FEAR drives us to be codependent Tools and Strategies to remove confusion from codependency Quotes “You're using your need for Connection as a facade to justify violating her boundaries” - Josh “I spent years in my marriage trying to conform to what she wanted me to be without knowing how to voice my needs in the relationship” - Seth Links Host Name: Josh Cearbaugh https://joshcearbaugh.com https://www.instagram.com/jcearbaugh/ https://facebook.com/joshcearbaugh https://www.jumpstartyourlife.com Links Host Name: Seth Conner https://sethconner.com https://www.instagram.com/sethaconner/ https://www.facebook.com/iSethConner/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/sethaconner/ Companies, Products & Places Mentioned Mushroom Doctor (psilocybin micro-dosing) www.MushroomDoctor.co/shop John Hopkins University (Depression/Smoking Cessation/Etc) (https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/psychiatry/research/psychedelics-research.html) Resources Mentioned The Power of TED (The Empowerment Dynamic) (https://www.amazon.com/POWER-TED-EMPOWERMENT-DYNAMIC-Anniversary/dp/0996871802) Default Mode Network (https://psychedelicstoday.com/2020/02/04/psychedelics-and-the-default-mode-network/)
Billing--it's one of the most dreaded parts of owning a law firm. When it comes to billing, we hear the same things from attorneys over and over again. They don't record time for things they don't think they should charge a client for. They write off time or give discounts for tasks that they think shouldn't have taken so long. They delay sending out bills because they fear their client's response or that the client won't pay them. They don't follow up on unpaid bills because they're worried their client will argue or feel bad that they charged so much when they know their client doesn't have the money. This is a no-judgment zone. Both of us, Melanie and Mark, have done all of these things in our businesses. However, we want to help you overcome this dread and avoid that vicious cycle where the bills get larger and larger and you get more and more concerned. The facts of hourly billing don't have to be “just the way it is.” Melanie has learned ways to overcome her dread of billing in her law firm. In this episode, she's sharing great insights that can help you not dread it quite so much either. Show Highlights: Why you need to hold your clients responsible. How to value the service you're providing your clients for all that it's worth. The financial impact this dread of hourly billing can have on your firm and life. What to do if you often don't record time for things you don't want to charge your clients for. What to do when you think something shouldn't have taken so long. Why you should never delay sending out bills. Why you always need to follow up on unpaid bills.

Before we jump into this episode of Immigration Law for Tech Startups, I am thrilled to announce that DACA is back—100% back! On Dec. 4, a federal judge ordered the Department of Homeland Security, which oversees U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), to resume approval of new DACA applications and work permits and granting them in two-year increments. In this podcast episode, I’m thrilled to discuss the ideal immigration system for the U.S. with Professor Bill Ong Hing, one of my heroes in the immigration law field. Bill is a professor of law and migration studies at the University of San Francisco. He teaches a lot of really cool classes about immigration policy, rebellious lawyering, negotiation. He is also the director of the Immigration and Deportation Defense Clinic at USF, which is currently helping more than 400 asylum clients with their cases free of change. In 1979, Bill founded the Immigrant Legal Resource Center (ILRC), a national nonprofit based in San Francisco that provides legal training, technical assistance, and educational materials, and engages in advocacy and immigrant civic engagement to advance immigrant rights. He continues to volunteer at ILRC as general counsel. While Bill is pleased by the incoming Biden administration, his outlook remains tempered as to prospects for comprehensive immigration reform in Congress. “If it had been a landslide victory for Biden, I would be more confident,” he says. Still, he remains hopeful for more positive changes ahead for U.S. immigration policy—even more than what came out of the Obama administration, such as DACA and some prosecutorial discretion moves. Bill talks in more detail about the prospects and benefits of a startup visa—or at least the reinstatement of the International Entrepreneur Rule—shifting to a first-come, first-served green card allocation process, creating immigrant enterprise zones, reforming the asylum system, and more. We’ve been able to successfully navigate the immigration landscape during last four years under the Trump administration, so now, even more opportunities are open under the incoming Biden administration. We are looking forward to seeing more people being able to live their dreams of living, creating, and innovating in the U.S. Please share this episode with investors, companies, startup founders, or anyone who can benefit from it. Reach out to us. We can help you determine your best immigration options whether you’re in the U.S. or abroad. In this episode, you’ll hear about: Bill’s assessment of where things stand with immigration now, and how that may change under the incoming Biden administration Why he hopes the Biden administration will achieve more in immigration reform than President Obama Rebellious lawyering—what it is and what it means Why immigrants create jobs, and why a variety of job skills are needed in the U.S. Why Bill sees the good news about DACA as tempered by a potential legal challenge by the state of Texas to work permits under DACA Bill’s thoughts on the prospects of a startup visa or the reinstatement of the International Entrepreneur Rule Why immigrants significantly contribute to the economy, particularly the Social Security system The benefits of making the green card process based on first come, first served; creating immigrant enterprise zones; and things to think about when creating a fair point-based immigration system Where things stand with asylum system in the U.S., and where should it go from here Where Bill draws inspiration and his advice to listeners Don’t miss my upcoming conversations with other top Silicon Valley venture capitalists, startup founders, professors, futurists, and thought leaders on Immigration Law for Tech Startups.

Ask these 3 Powerful Questions... when facing change, feeling stuck or dealing with workplace drama. They'll help you level up the results you get.Where are you placing your focus?How are you relating?What actions are you taking? Read extended show notes on Rise Leaders Radio websiteDavid has followed up his wildly popular and super sticky book, TED: The Empowerment Dynamic with 3 Vital Questions: Transforming Workplace Drama. When we answer these questions and upshift our perspective, we become more resilient and more likely to create the results we desire. This just in: David has won the Independent Press Award's Distinguished Favorites of 2020 for 3 Vital Questions!Energy Follows AttentionWe're built for survival. Our default mode is to scan for danger and then react. If we want to create a wonderful life and build great places to work, then we have to move past problem-solving. We have to build habits that support designing futures rather than reacting to problems. David Emerald's 3 Vital Questions takes our focus from a problem to an outcome orientation.Highlights from the InterviewThese excerpts have been edited for context.[07:10] ...The first vital question is, Where are you putting your focus? The subtext to that is, are you focusing on problems, or are you focusing on outcomes? What informs that question is an organizing framework that I call FISBE. FISBE is an acronym that stands for Focus, Inner State and BEhavior. The idea is that what we focus on engages some emotional response. That inner state that then drives our behavior. [17:16] ...Vital Question Two is, How are you relating? How are you relating to others? How are you relating to your experience? And how are you relating to yourself? Are you relating in ways that produce, or perpetuate drama? Or are you relating in ways that empower others and yourself to be more resourceful, resilient and innovative?If our orientation is problem-focused, fear-based and reactive in nature, that creates the environment and the conditions for the Dreaded Drama Triangle, or DDT, which I'll explain in more detail in just a moment. I also want to say that if we can consciously choose to operate as much as possible out of that Outcome Orientation, where we're focused on what we care about, that our inner state is more passion-based and we're taking creative action, that creates the conditions for a different set of relationship roles and dynamics that we call TED or The Empowerment Dynamic.[31:29]: What actions are you taking? Are you merely reacting to the problems of the moment, or are you taking creative and generative action, including the solving of problems in service to outcomes? Dynamic tension informs the Third Vital Question.[32:42]: The three basic steps of dynamic tension are first and foremost, focus on the outcome and to be as clear as we can on the outcome, that the outcome can sometimes be clear and concrete, other times it may be more vague and directional.Then the second step is to step back and tell the truth about, what's my current reality in relation to the outcome? That engages a tension between what we want and what we're currently experiencing.The third piece of dynamic tension is to then determine and take baby steps that move from our current reality toward our envisioned outcome. Baby steps to me are things that as an individual, or team, we can choose to do that tend to be short-term and in organizational terms. LeeAnn, it could be as simple as, ‘I need to have a conversation’, or ‘we need to go gather this information’. It's just whenever the next little step is, that’s going to help us move toward and/or get clearer about the outcome.More Links from this EpisodeDownload the Transcript 3 Vital Questions websiteThe Power of TED: The Empowerment Dynamic3 Vital Questions:Transforming Workplace DramaDavid EmeraldDonna ZajoncStephen Karpman's Drama TriangleBob AndersonThe Leadership Circle ProfileRobert Fritz: Structural TensionStagenAfter listening to the interview and reading the notes, I wonder what your takeaway is?Thanks for tuning in!LeeAnn Your ratings and reviews on Apple Podcasts are greatly appreciated!

Thousands of people and organizations have achieved breakthroughs by applying his self-leadership techniques and attending his seminars worldwide. David and his wife and business partner Donna Zajonc (sajon) MCC have developed the frameworks that form the basis of the engaging workplace fable, 3 Vital Questions:Transforming Workplace Drama. (Please listen to the podcast episode or read the transcript to hear explanations, stories and examples.) In this episode, Dr. Jessica Higgins and David Emerald discuss: Understanding the Drama Triangle and the three roles involved. The distinction between victimization and victimhood. Learning the Empowerment Dynamic and the three roles. The opposite of a victim position is a creator position. How telling a person that they are acting as a victim will trigger reactivity. Within the Drama Triangle, we focus on the problem. Within the Empowerment Dynamic, the focus is on the desired outcome. Key Takeaways: The three roles in the Drama Triangle are victim, challenger, and rescuer. The antidote to the Drama Triangle roles is the Empowerment Dynamic roles, creator, persecutor, and helper. It’s natural to look at a problem and try to solve the problem. When the intention and the focus on the issue, it can spin us into this very hopeless, not empowered, lack of control place. The way we can escape the drama triangle is by shifting our focus to what we want to experience. For example,“What is it that we really want?” "A problem is rarely ever solved from within the victim orientation." — David Emerald If you have a topic you would like me to discuss; please contact me by clicking on the “Ask Dr. Jessica Higgins” button here.
