How to Have Positive Political Discussions - Ep. 71

Today on Next Level Human, join Dr. Jade Teta as he talks about having positive political discussions. In the middle of the COVID crisis and the Black Lives Matter movement, people with differing opinions clash, resulting in stressful situations. Jade gets into how we can avoid these situations. Remember, it’s not about being the smartest and winning debates!

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• The three levels of knowledge. There are things that we don’t know that we don’t know!
• Dangers of deciding that you’ve already made up your mind. Consider what other people have to say.
• The less we know, the more we think we know. The more we know, the more we realize that we don’t know.
• Confirming the reliability of opinions through science, journalism, or media. Even if everyone has biases, there are still ways to validate different claims.
• Not getting emotionally triggered and not pushing people into “argument mode.” What words and phrases should you avoid?
• And more!
