What we need for emotional safety — and how we can provide it — featuring Doug Noll - a podcast by Deb Falzoi

Safety is a basic need. But so many of us don't feel emotionally safe growing up or learn skills to help others feel emotionally safe. We feel dismissed, ignored, and hurt, and so many feel the same way. But when we help others feel seen and heard emotionally, we can replace that hurt with connection — and de-escalate situations. In this episode, Doug Noll shares a de-escalation technique rooted in these ideas that's worked in prisons. The effects of this quick technique can be far-reaching, helping us connect more deeply and even address pain on a grand scale.
