Dr. Christian Conte is one of America's most accomplished mental health specialists in the field of anger and emotional management. In this episode, he shares the deeper principles behind Yield Theory - a powerful model of change that integrates radical compassion, conscious education, and Eastern philosophical insights such as non-attachment. With over twenty-five years of clinical experience, including extensive work with violent offenders, Dr. Conte brings grounded clarity to some of the most challenging emotional landscapes. Central to his approach is the idea that anger often arises not from what’s happening, but from the clash between our expectations and reality. He introduces the concept of the “cartoon world” - a mental projection of how we think others should behave - and how its collapse gives rise to frustration and rage. By recognizing these inner dynamics, we gain the ability to respond thoughtfully, rather than reactively. Dr. Conte shares practical, accessible tools for real-time emotional regulation. His “maybe” technique invites uncertainty into rigid thinking, helping to calm the limbic system by engaging the frontal cortex. His “sans adjectives” method shows how stripping emotionally charged language from our descriptions can reduce escalation and bring clarity. We also explore the interplay between the body and mind in shaping emotional states, the differences between types of anger - from hot anger to seething resentment - and the necessity of humility and present-moment awareness in therapeutic work. He reflects on his personal journey into this field, what it has taught him about human behavior, and why meeting people exactly where they are is essential for real connection and change. This conversation offers both practical insights and a deeper invitation: to meet ourselves and others with presence, precision, and radical compassion.

Author of numerous books including Walking Through Anger, Dr. Conte is the creator of Yield Theory. His books are used by institutions around the world to train counselors. He currently trains correctional institutions, sports teams, and organizations in the practical application of his Yield Theory Anger Management Program. He was a tenured professor at the University of Nevada, Reno, before he left the West Coast to return to his home state of Pennsylvania where he currently lives with his wife and daughter.

Our cells have been masterfully navigating relationships for billions of years, what if their wisdom holds the solutions to our deepest relational wounds? Diane Tegtmeier bridges biochemistry, social work, environmental activism and energy healing to reveal how nature's ancient wisdom can transform our most challenging relationships. Drawing from her inspiring work with cell membrane principles, she offers a revolutionary framework that transcends conventional boundaries and polarization. Diane shares her journey from traditional scientist to energy healer after a personal crisis led to a profound perceptual awakening. This transformation allowed her to witness healing in ways her scientific background couldn't have predicted, setting the stage for her unique integration of cellular biology with human connection. At the heart of Diane's approach are six fundamental principles derived from cell membranes, offering practical alternatives to rigid boundaries and providing tools for evolving in relationships. The discussion extends to intergenerational healing, showing how unresolved patterns transmit through family systems and how cell membrane principles can help transform these inherited dynamics. Diane shares personal examples of working with grief and caretaking patterns in her own lineage. As we navigate politically polarized landscapes and environmental crises, Diane suggests these principles offer pathways toward co-creative problem-solving rather than opposition. Her vision for the future of wellness involves communities and governance systems that honor both oneness and uniqueness - much like ecosystems where diverse organisms serve distinct functions while maintaining balance. For anyone seeking to heal relationships, transform collective patterns, or simply understand nature's blueprint for connection, this conversation offers insights and practical tools for personal and societal evolution.

Diane Tegtmeier, MSW is a seasoned practitioner with a multifaceted background in biochemistry research, environmental activism, clinical social work and energy healing. She has maintained a private practice since 1994, supporting individuals through trauma, chronic illness and challenging life transitions. She is author of Relationships that Heal, and more recently The Sacred Cell, which explores how principles of nature shape human relationships.

Thornton Streeter takes us on a fascinating journey into the invisible realm of the human energy field revealing how cutting-edge technology is finally making visible what healers have known for millennia. As founder of the Centre for Biofield Sciences in India, Thornton has dedicated many years to developing the Biofield Viewer - a remarkable system that translates the human aura in real-time. His team has developed technology that works with basic cameras by removing the artificial "sharpening" filters that modern cameras employ. Thornton shares how the implications for holistic health practitioners are profound - for the first time, energy healers can visually demonstrate the effectiveness of their work, providing clients with tangible evidence. He shares how this visual validation helps bridge the gap between belief and knowledge, allowing people to fully own their healing experiences rather than doubting what they can't see. He describes chakras not as mystical concepts but as actual "lenses of consciousness" that allow us to operate in different dimensions - a perspective that merges ancient wisdom with modern scientific understanding. He expresses his frustration with the current approach to medicine and sees the future transition from chemical to physics based medicine, utilizing the information gleaned from the aura as the next paradigm of guidance for health.

Thornton Streeter DSc. is an innovative biofield research scientist and founder of the Centre for Biofield Sciences in India, where he has pioneered the integration of subtle energy fields with modern health diagnostics. He has collaborated with software engineer John Catchpole to develop a subtle energy imaging system called the Biofield Viewer, which reveals light interference patterns between a controlled lighting environment and the human biofield. With over 25 years of research experience, he has collaborated with various universities and research institutions to advance the understanding of the human biofield. Notably, he has been instrumental in projects funded by United Nations NGO initiatives, aiming to explore innovative health solutions that bridge traditional and modern approaches. He frequently lectures around the world and continues to drive forward research emphasizing the healing potential of the human biofield.
