This podcast series explores a game-changing understanding of the human mind 'before psychology' that can exponentially increase the performance, resourcefulness and well-being for any individual or organisation.

This episode is a conversation with trauma therapist and coach Lou Lebentz. Lou & Piers have similar backgrounds in how they worked with clients, and now Lou specialises with clients suffering trauma. After they had a couple of interesting exchanges on LinkedIn about psychological safety, they decided to do a podcast exploring the difference and similarities....

The discussion covers:

What we mean by trauma?
The relevance of seeing psychological safety via the nervous system. The polyvagal theory
Can you point directly, or do people need to go through a 'journey' - can it be that simple?
The issue of 'spiritual bypassing'
The self and it's narratives - what are they, and how do they dissolve? The 'real and never true' nature of reality.
The importance of 'relational repair'
Relationships - who is doing the relating?
The power of holding space
