On Episode 6 of Season 3, Arthi is joined by one of the newest Tasha Ten members, Matt Stone. Matt shares his perspectives on why the concept of win-lose is a fallacy. Matt shares this through his experiences as a family law attorney which led him to understand that instead of win-lose as the options we are familiar with in any situation, in the long run it is typically either win-win or lose-lose.
Witnessing disruptive separations that were often highly adversarial brought to the fore many of Matt’s own unhealed matters around loss and separation, which began the process of healing and making some key decisions as a result, which Matt shares such as career change, advice seeking, and forging your own path over time.
Matt stresses the importance of intrapersonal self-awareness in order to assist ourselves and those around us towards a long term win-win for everyone and shares key insights on what internal and external self-awareness levers can be used.
Some wise words from Matt:
- “ if [you] continue in an activity that goes so against what [you] believe…eventually it is going to be a massive reckoning, because you have to stay in a delusional state about yourself in order to cope for a while, in a situation where you're misaligned with who you really are”
- “Just because you can, doesn't mean you should”
- “we need a sustainable way of relating to each other if we're going to have a sustainable environment to live in”
- “Life is progress not perfection”
