'WHY NORMAL CONFLICT RESOLUTION DOESN’T WORK WITH HIGH CONFLICT PERSONALITIES' is an exclusive interview with high conflict strategist Samantha Drum, Esq. In this episode we explore the definition and characteristics of high conflict people, boundary-setting techniques, and tips for creating positive outcomes. We talk about examples of high conflict dynamics in HBO's 'Succession,' and real world examples from legendary survivor Tina Turner to the litigious con artist 'Dirty John' Meehan. We also touch on the high conflict divorces of Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman as well as Ioan Gruffudd and Alice Evans.
