Break the Anger Loop: How to Master Emotional Regulation with Dr. Christian Conte
Dr. Christian Conte shares a grounded and transformative approach to emotional regulation through his powerful Yield Theory - a model rooted in radical compassion, conscious change, and over two decades of clinical experience, including work with violent offenders.
We explore why anger often arises not from what happens, but from the collapse of our inner “cartoon world” - a mental projection of how we think others should behave. Dr. Conte offers accessible, real-time tools for de-escalation, including the “maybe” technique and “sans adjectives” method - each designed to calm the nervous system and promote clarity under stress.
This is an essential conversation for anyone navigating emotional overwhelm, conflict, or transformation.
In this episode, we explore:
• The true root of anger—and how to shift it
• Yield Theory and the dynamics of behavior change
• The “cartoon world” and expectation collapse
• The “maybe” and “sans adjectives” techniques for emotional regulation
• Hot anger vs. seething resentment
• The body-mind connection in emotional reactivity
• The role of humility and presence in real change
• Dr. Conte’s journey and why meeting people where they are matters
