There are three conversations within every conversation. 

But what does this mean? 

We can identify three different conversations whenever we have any interaction, even the most mundane ones. 

In the first place, a whole world is happening inside of you. 

When talking, you bring up your past experiences, identity, values, belief systems, and feelings.  

At the same time, the other person does the same. They, too, bring their whole world when arguing or discussing an issue with you. 

Concurrently, there is also a third conversation taking place.

And in this third space, more nuances and shades of gray exist.  

Accessing the third level of conversation is vital to stop the cycle of repeating the same things over and over again. 

In this week's episode of Your Brain on Trauma, I will unpack the characteristics of the three conversations so you can start observing them. 

Once you have these resources, you can master the third conversation.

And this awareness will allow you to develop a superpower that will undoubtedly put the world in your palm.
