How To Agree to Disagree (turning conflict into connection) with Gabrielle Rifkind
<p>I am not a fan of the saying “let’s agree to disagree”, it can be so passive aggressive. But it’s the title of Gabrielle Rifkind’s new book and maybe this pass-agg comment deserves an upgrade. </p><br><p>Regular listeners may remember Gabrielle from a podcast we did four years ago called The Delicate Art of Managing Differences. The world has - sadly - become ever more fractured, which trickles down to our every day relationships so who better to get to help us navigate these schisms than Gabrielle who, as well as being a psychotherapist is the founder and director of The Oxford Process, which is a conflict resolution organisation. She’s also an expert in human conflict, and, as a mediator, often goes into war torn areas to reduce tension between warring parties. She’s worked in the Middle East, Asia and Europe. But as we’ll hear she’s not always great at managing conflict in every day life - as she is human!</p><p>In this episode we talk about why you can’t agree with everyone, or - annoyingly - get everyone to agree with you. How to manage tricky family or social situations where you’re with someone with really opposing views.</p><br><p>Why that’s not necessary to be friends with someone, or even particularly like them. I know that sometimes I find myself feeling contaminated even just talking to someone with really opposing views, almost as if I’m complicit simply by listening.</p><br><p>We also discuss how to stop a disagreement turning into an argument. And we look at what’s at the heart of most people’s disagreements and need for harmony.</p><p>This episode gave me a lot of food for thought and I hope it provides that for you, too.</p><br><p>If you'd like to listen to this episode, past or future ones, ad free then consider becoming a Substacker: <a href="https://pocketannalisa.substack.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://pocketannalisa.substack.com/</a>.

Who we are and who we have become in an age of technology and A.I with Prof Alessandra Lemma
<p>This episode was not easy to name. The subject is highly topical, but the take on it is original and thought-provoking. </p><br><p>Alessandra has written her 25th book: ‘Psychotechnical Becomings: Psychoanalysis, Identity, Desire and Mourning in Times of AI and Digital Mediation’. It looks at how technology shapes us, and has changed the way we interact with each other; from being able to tolerate differences and disagreements, to sex and mourning. We look for a frictionless life but is that possible, or even desirable (spoiler alert: no and no)?</p><br><p>This the most ground-breaking podcast I’ve done. And Alessandra’s book will really make you look again at what technology gives but what it also takes away. It’s not a ‘tech is bad’ approach but it will make you really think about who we are and who we’re all becoming.</p><br><p>If you'd like to listen to this episode, past or future ones, ad free then consider becoming a Substacker: <a href="https://pocketannalisa.substack.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://pocketannalisa.substack.com/</a>.

Loneliness with David Robson
<p>In this episode I’m in conversation with David Robson. David is an award winning science writer and author of three books, one of which <strong>The Laws of Connection</strong>, we really delve into here. David graduated from Cambridge university with a maths degree, has worked as features editor at the New Scientist, was a senior journalist at BBC Future and his work has appeared in various newspapers and journals such as The Guardian and The Atlantic.</p><br><p>Loneliness isn’t just a psychological or mental state, it can and does affect our physical state: it’s as bad for our health as smoking. Loneliness can increase the risk of early mortality by a whopping 26%, in part because of the stress associated with feeling lonely. Of course, being alone doesn’t have to equate with feeling lonely and that’s an important distinction to make but studies show that at some point or other, pretty much half of us will report feeling lonely at some time or other with 7% *of the population feeling loneliness pretty much all the time.</p><br><p>If you'd like to listen to this episode, past or future ones, ad free then consider becoming a Substacker: <a href="https://pocketannalisa.substack.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://pocketannalisa.substack.com/</a>.
