Laura Steward Discusses How Star Trek Metaphors Can Improve Your Communication Results

Podcast Episode 127                                         Release Date: January 12, 2018

 

On this podcast Laura Steward, CEO of Wisdom Learned, LLC, shares her view of how you can sometimes helpfully reframe your communication with others by thinking like a Trekie. Laura says that using Star Trek TV and movie metaphors can serve as a doorway for improving your communication results with others by becoming more aware of the role language, metaphors and words play to get across or frustrate meaning and understanding. Laura cites the Darmok Metaphors episode with Captain Picard and Paul Winfield as a good example of what can happen when another party doesn’t understand your meaning. She also discusses how painful childhood experiences can follow us into adulthood and can impact our ability to share or feel “comfortable” within our own skin. Laura operates from a simple philosophy – “Treat people better than they expect to be treated.” Laura is a sought after speaker, Nautilus Award winning and international bestselling author and business advisor. She is the author of the Bestselling Book “What Would a Wise Woman Do? Questions to Ask Along the Way.” Through her weekly Radio Show, Entrepreneur Master Class, keynote speeches, books, seminars, trainings and one-one sessions, Laura’s mission is clear – she helps people get off autopilot and create amazing, successful lives.

Podcast Episode 082                                           Release Date: October 7, 2016

lily-sloaneOn this podcast Family and Marriage Therapist Lily Sloane discusses the creative processes behind the creation of her successful and well received podcast series entitled A Therapist Walks into a Bar. Lily explains what it’s like to talk to bar patrons in this surprising way and how doing so can alter the perspective people have about what psychotherapy is and is not. Importantly, Lily emphasizes that what she does in the bar is definitely NOT therapy and she doesn’t limit her approach to bars either: now she’s expanded to talking to people picnicking in local parks in San Francisco and simply asks if she can join the conversation! How exciting and creative! Interestingly enough, Lily also tells you what it’s like to experience social rejection because she’s not a drinker as well as sharing the pain of her existential grief from relationship break ups. Lily graduated with a Master’s degree from the Counseling Psychology  program at the California Institute of Integral Studies and is the board President for the San Francisco Chapter  of the California Association of Marriage and Family Therapists. Lily helps clients who have eating disorders and body images issues;  clients with addiction and substance abuse issues; couples in need  of relationship therapy; and clients who are performers and artists  of all types seeking greater levels of self awareness and self  worth.
