This week, we sat down with Joseph Myers - trust specialist, renowned speaker, consultant, and author - to discuss our shared mission of leading a movement of more trust. Joseph helps people imagine, reframe, and refocus to foster transparency, engagement, and loyalty. He challenges the notion that trust is an either-or situation, instead exploring the complex interplay between trust and distrust.   We delve into the neuroscience of trust and distrust, examining where each occurs in the brain. Joseph explains that while distrust is natural and important for our safety, it needs to be used differently than we most often do. By learning to harness distrust as a guide, we can come to trust more safely, and more often.   We talk about how, even when distrust exists, people and teams can still collaborate effectively if they manage their distrust differently. He emphasizes that trust will inevitably be broken or damaged, and that it’s crucial to humanize these experiences. Join us as we explore these profound ideas and learn how to build stronger, more resilient relationships.

Most of us have grown up to believe there are “good” emotions and “bad” emotions and that’s that. We make decisions and assessments of people and situations based on how these emotions make us FEEL. In fact, when we develop an understanding of the PURPOSE of our emotions and removing our assessment of “goodness” or “badness” (especially the ones we’ve assessed as “bad”) to lean into the DATA they give us, DEEP RICHNESS IS UNLOCKED. We had an awesome conversation with Dan Newby - Founder of The School of Emotions, coach, and acclaimed author - and dove right into the rich and often misunderstood world of emotions with Dan Newby. Listen how expanding our emotional literacy can transform our personal and professional life, leading to deeper connections and more effective teamwork.
