22 years ago, I was a top-rated trial lawyer, winning just about every argument in court but losing every fight at home. I could persuade a jury, negotiate multi-million dollar settlements, and argue my way through the most complex legal battles. But when my wife was upset, I had no idea what to do. I thought the problem was me, that I wasn't calm enough or I needed to control my emotions better. I was wrong. In this video, I'm going to show you exactly how I went from being a lawyer who couldn't stop a fight in his own living room to training murderers in maximum security prisons how to become peacemakers to stop prison violence. And I'm not sharing to show up. I'm sharing this because after working with CEOs and law enforcement therapists and even inmates serving life sentences, I discovered something that changed everything. And once you understand what actually works, you can de-escalate any situation in 90 seconds.
