The Resilience Lab

Rex Miller shares insights on overcoming conflicts and fostering effective communication in today's Reflections episode. By encouraging direct conversations and avoiding assumptions, managers can step back and allow team members to address conflicts themselves.

Rex introduces "NIMSU" - "No Information, Make Shit Up" - an acronym capturing a tendency to fill in the gaps by creating assumptions and narratives when faced with differing perspectives, fueling misunderstandings and conflicts.

Through a personal story with his son, Rex emphasizes the value of understanding individual energy drains and communicating to prevent assumptions. Turn conflicts into catalysts for growth through active listening, open-ended questions, and by avoiding narrative-building without verification.

Tune into this episode to learn how to navigate differences by reframing conflicts and discover the power of effective communication to foster a culture of understanding and empathy.

In this first solo episode, Rex encourages people to listen to their bodies and understand their physical, emotional, and relational rhythms. He emphasizes the importance of sleep, connecting with others, and finding purpose in life. One thing Rex does before the end of every day is taking a few moments to plan for tomorrow and reflect on what went well that day.

What is the key to healthy aging? Answer: slowing it down.

We break it down on this episode of The Resilience Lab with guest Dr. Michael Roizen, NYT best-selling author and Chief Wellness Officer Emeritus at Cleveland Clinic.

With advancements in medical technology, people are living longer and longer each year. But what is the Real Age you are living your life at? Some people are 60 years old but live their life as if they are 80. And some, as if they are 40. Your Real Age is how you interact with the world around you through your behaviors and habits.

In today's episode, Dr. Roizen tells us about his journey of researching how to live younger and longer lives. He discusses behaviors and health indicators that influence the rate of aging along with economic adjustments that will be required as people continue to live longer.

Rex Miller and Dr. Mike Roizen continue their discussion by talking about healthcare costs and what companies can do to help employees live longer, healthier lives including:

- Designing intentional workplaces

- Offering stress management and health incentive programs

- Creating a socially connected and empathic work environment

Listen to their whole conversation in today's episode and learn more about how you can turn back time and slow down your own aging process.
