What's A Good Guy?

Episode 324: Negotiating With Grief


Listen Later

In this episode of What's A Good Guy?, we dive deep into the unspoken battle between logic and emotion — the true negotiation happening inside all of us. Inspired by Chris Voss' book Never Split the Difference, we explore how tactical empathy — not logic — became the FBI's greatest weapon against kidnappers and terrorists, and why that same shift is crucial when facing grief and loss. Men are often taught to "think" through pain, while women are encouraged to "feel" through it. But what if true healing — and true power — comes not from winning an argument with life, but from sitting at the table with your own emotions? This conversation challenges the way we bargain with grief, reveals why silence can be our greatest teacher, and asks the ultimate question: What part of you are you still trying to negotiate with — and what would it look like to finally let go?
