Nov. 2022 Emotional Intelligence Summit

The reason behind why I founded Heart Math was because of my own heart opening experience & following my intuition. My goal was to help bring a system of tools, techniques, and eventually technologies that really could help increase people’s awareness. Heart Math is practical tools & techniques that allow us to self regulate.

Master Your Nervous System to Master Your Life with Joshua Wenner

“What if there was a way that you could become aware that you were in an activated state? Which really just means a highly emotional state. And you were able to take charge of that state, calm, and regulate your nervous system so you can move from a reactive state to a calm, regulated state. To choose consciously how to respond versus react. This is ultimate freedom in life.” 

 

WHAT WE COVERED

The nervous system in the brain.

Developing Responsibility in Young Adults

 

“What our teenagers need from us is actually support. They don’t need rescue.”– Ezra Max

WHAT WE COVERED

  • Understanding what your teenagers need from you
  • How to set realistic expectations with your teenagers
  • What to do if your teenager says “no”
  • How to empower your teenager to take responsibility for their commitments

Top Shares

The thing our kids need from us the most are time and attention, which really means listening and understanding.

Set your expectations with the understanding that your teenager is going to break your rules by at least 30%.

If the answer to what you’re requesting does not have a “no” possibility, you’re not making a request, you’re making a demand. Genuine commitment only comes as a response to requests.

If you’ve got a “no”, your next step is to negotiate, come to a clear agreement, and confirm the commitment.

Punishment and consequence are not the same.

The Enneagram’s Impact On David Osborn’s Marriage

 

The #1 Journey I’ve been on is accepting my wife for who she is 100% of the time.” – David Osborn

WHAT WE COVERED

Front Row Dad David Osborn shares how his use of the Enneagram in his marriage diffuses conflict, promotes acceptance and reveals personal blindspots. With the support of co-hosts Dr. Kelly F. and Les McDaniel, you’ll learn how you can purpose the enneagram for your own growth without weaponizing your learning against your partner.

Top Shares

  • We all have tendencies, and knowing the ones that you don’t love about yourself  is a great place for nurturing and healing to start. Ex. Some enneagram types have tendencies to lean into righteousness during conflict.
  • Within your type, you have “wing” types that add depth to your main type. Learning more about you and your partner’s wings allow you to get more granular with the traits that tend to show up in healthy and unhealthy versions of you.
  • The enneagram gives you a 3rd party framework that a you can speak to during conflict so that you can move from personal attacks like  “I am..” and “You are..” to “As an 8 I’m doing this..”.
  • What’s best for her, is better for us, even if it’s not what I want.” – Michael
    “Relinquish the need to be right” – Emilio

“The Moment” & “The Opportunity” with Dr. Kelly

Before two become one, each one of us becomes two: your younger self and your adult self. – Dr. Kelly Flanagan

WHAT WE COVERED

Companionship hinges upon a single moment: the moment your heart starts to close. Dr. Kelly goes into detail about what this moment looks like and how to presence yourself and notice the bodily sensations that happen when your heart is closing.

This conversation reveals all the questions you need to ask yourself to help keep your ego and temper at bay in a moment where you feel most charged.

  • What experience(s) is your ego resisting or attached to in this moment?
  • What am I resisting in this moment…?
  • What would it be like to receive this as it is…?

Then Dr. Kelly exposes what “The Opportunity” looks like as you welcome your (younger) self into the moment and then express to your partner his hopes and fears.
