    135. Best of: The Personal and Professional Power of Emotional Awareness

    Why deep connection with others starts by connecting more deeply with ourselves.

    How are you feeling right now? According to Celine Teoh, we all need to ask ourselves that question more often — and be more precise in how we answer it.

    Teoh is a facilitator of the course Interpersonal Dynamics, one of Stanford Graduate School of Business’s most iconic classes. In her work with students and as a CEO coach, Teoh encourages people to get better acquainted with their feelings. “Feelings are data,” she says. “In the rest of our logical lives, we would never make decisions on bad or highly abstract data. But we’ll do that with feelings.”

    In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart: The Podcast, Teoh and host Matt Abrahams discuss how developing greater emotional awareness can help us achieve more agency and empathy in our personal and professional lives.

    (Rewind): Don't Like Their Behavior? Use These 3 Simple Tips!
    If you’ve been in the early dating stages with someone, you may have noticed after a few weeks when you get one of those “uh-oh” moments.

    Maybe they didn't call when they said they would. Or they're a little ignorant about something that’s important to you. Or appeared to take something you did for granted.

    It might not be terrible behavior, but you know it’s behavior you don’t want to be a pattern for the rest of your relationship.

    So how do you handle the conversation without letting your emotions get the better of you? I.e. without reacting in a way that would hurt rather than help the relationship...

    In this week’s episode, I’m going to give 3 steps of exactly how to handle this difficult conversation, so that you can handle it in a productive way when it happens.

    This is how you make them want to be a better person for you...

    133. From Good to Super: How Supercommunicators Unlock the Language of Connection

    The ways supercommunicators operate and how to emulate their techniques.

    Across more than 130 episodes, Think Fast, Talk Smart has touched a lot on what it takes to be a good communicator. But what about reaching that next level? What about being a “supercommunicator”? Supercommunicator is a term used by Pulitzer Prize winning journalist and author Charles Duhigg in his latest book, Supercommunicators: How to Unlock the Secret Language of Connection. 

    In this podcast episode, Abrahams and Duhigg explore the precise techniques that distinguish a good communicator from a “supercommunicator:” traits such as active listening; looping for understanding to demonstrate genuine engagement; and identifying what someone is truly feeling, underneath what they actually say.

    US 2.0: Living With Our Differences

    US 2.0: Living With Our Differences

    Conflicts are inevitable — both at a global scale and in our personal lives. This week, in the latest in our US 2.0 series, psychologist Peter Coleman explains how minor disagreements turn into major rifts, and how we can defuse even the most salient of disputes in our lives.

    Interested in learning more?

    For additional ideas about how to keep conflict from spiraling, check out our conversation with researcher Julia Minson. And for a look at how violence shapes political outcomes on a global scale, be sure to listen to our interview with political scientist Erica Chenoweth. 

    US 2.0: Win Hearts, Then Minds

    US 2.0: Win Hearts, Then Minds

    There's a saying that's attributed to the Dalai Lama: in the practice of tolerance, one's enemy is the best teacher. It's a nice idea, but in reality, when people don't share our values, it's hard for us to tolerate theirs. This week, we talk with sociologist Robb Willer about the common mistakes we make in trying to persuade others of our point of view — and how we can break out of our echo chambers.

    World on Fire, Part 2: Global Conflict Has Surged to an 80-Year High. Why?

    World on Fire, Part 2: Global Conflict Has Surged to an 80-Year High. Why?
    This is the second episode in "World on Fire," a series on the historic levels of global violence and conflict in the Middle East, the Americas, and beyond. Listen to Part 1 here: "World on Fire, Part 1: The Houthis, Israel's Impossible War, and Worsening Middle East Chaos." You and I are living through an extraordinary period of global conflict. In Europe, Russia, and Ukraine are engaged in one of the continent's deadliest hot wars since 1945. In Africa, the last few years have seen devastating wars in Ethiopia, the Democratic Republic of Congo, and South Sudan. In the Middle East, of course, there is Israel's record-breaking bombing of Gaza and the unfolding crisis in Yemen. In Central Asia, Azerbaijan launched a brutal attack against Armenians in Nagorno-Karabakh. In Central and South America, cartel and gang violence has surged. The Jalisco Cartel New Generation and its affiliates in Mexico and Columbia, were responsible for more than 11,000 deaths in 2022. Last week, the state of Ecuador arrested 900 people in a security operation to stop gang violence, following the prison escape of one of the country's most powerful drug lords. According to researchers at Uppsala University, this might be the most violent period of the 21st century, with more total conflicts than any year since World War II. Why is it all happening at once? Paul Poast is a political scientist who studies international relations and conflict history at the University of Chicago. In an essay for The Atlantic, he said we are in the midst of “not a world war, but a world at war.” And in this interview, we consider five theories for why global conflict seems to be surging around the world.

    How can you prevent someone from triggering a negative response out of you?

    As we step into the holiday season, potentially tricky conversations during family gatherings can happen. We've all been there, dealing with relatives where the connection isn't as smooth as we'd like, and the conversations can be a bit of a challenge.

    In this episode, you’ll learn:

    • The best practices for a restful sleep
    • How to improve your sleeping habits
    • How to change your body clock

    Let's make this holiday season one filled with warmth, understanding, and, of course, lots of love.
