Zach Stone's life arc runs from teenage “knucklehead” to crisis negotiator, trauma-informed facilitator, and head-of-product for thirty health-ed dev teams. In this rich, funny, and occasionally hair-raising conversation we drill down into the how of navigating chaos — on a subway platform, in a corporate boardroom, and inside your own nervous system.Trigger warning: there's a conversation about suicide at about 15 minutes into the episode. Skip to minute 17 if you want to avoid this section.Here's a tasting menu of our conversation:Gang manuals & purple binders – How a Quaker-adjacent conflict resolution course turned a 15-year-old troublemaker into a group dynamics geek.From union hall to board hall – Lessons learned refereeing SEPTA labor fights and why the same “rubber-and-glue” listening works on Zoom stand-ups.OARS in rough water – Using Motivational Interviewing (Open questions, Affirmations, Reflections, Summaries) to defuse rage, whether from a bus driver or the voice in your own head.Simulated danger, real breakthroughs – How well-designed role-plays can heal trauma if you hold the container (and what happens when a participant suddenly starts to undress).Signs you're in a chaotic system – Chronic absenteeism, cortisol tummy, “my work doesn't matter” syndrome, and 70% burnout in tech.Habit > culture – A shout-out to Paul Gibbons, Prochaska & DiClemente, and the myth of top-down culture change.Martial arts as somatic therapy – TaeKwonDo to Muay Thai to boxing; what Zach saw when veterans laid down their canes and kids in shelters stopped fighting.Virtual heartbreak – Coaching a Kharkiv dev team while missiles shook their bomb shelter.Chaos surfing 101 – Why you don't control chaos, you ride it; plus simple team-level practices to build collective resilience.TakeawaysName the elephant first. Start every workshop by voicing the resistance in the room; it evaporates faster than you'd think.Watch for survival mode. Tight shoulders, skipped meals, rolling eyes? Slow down before you roll out another initiative.Move the meat-sack. Five minutes of mindful movement (shadow-boxing, Tai-Chi, hallway laps) resets the neuro-chemistry better than another latte.Change habits, not slogans. Draft tiny incentives that make the preferred behavior the easy behavior; culture follows.Links & ResourcesZach on LinkedIn – the easiest place to connect and geek out about behavioral science.Red Kite Project – trauma-informed organizational change (Charlotte DiBartolomeo).AFSC Help Increase the Peace curriculumBooksPeter Levine – Waking the TigerBessel van der Kolk – The Body Keeps the ScorePaul Gibbons –

Today we take a journey of recovery and self-discovery with Zach Stone. Zach's unique and compassionate approach challenges the conventional wisdom around abstinence. Is total abstinence always the best path for overcoming addiction, or can individuals develop healthier relationships through self-exploration and conscious choice? Zach delves into why abstinence has become an expectation and offers insights on alternative paths to healing. We'll also bring light to our experiences in the vibrant rave scene of the '90s—from the music and dancing to the sense of community and belonging we discovered. In these communities, hoards of misplaced kids felt safe and seen, but there is also healing to be done from those experiences. ~Obeisance~ Connect with Zach Stone Website I BhadaRecovery.com Sound Cloud I SoundCloud.com/ZachariaAudio Garuda Wellness Retreat Information⁠ Connect with Adam Riehl Website I ⁠⁠⁠⁠AdamRiehlHealing.com⁠⁠⁠⁠ Facebook I ⁠⁠⁠⁠AdamRiehlHealing⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Instagram I ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@AdamRiehlHealing⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Youtube I ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@JourneyOfTheModernSoul⁠⁠⁠⁠ Email I AdamRiehl1@Gmail.com Another Podcast by Adam Riehl I ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Zen and Not Zen⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Subscribe and Share ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Anchor⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Breaker⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Google Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Pocket Casts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠RadioPublic⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠ --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/adam-riehl7/support
