#24 | The Trivium & Empathetic Reasoning: Critical Thinking, Truth Discovery & Character Development enabling real Self emPOWERment - How to Spot Delusion, Distortion & Manipulation | Nathan Martin

My guest today is Nathan Martin! He co-created an integrative
methodology called the Unity Process, which combines the
philosophy of Natural Law, the Trivium Method, Socratic
Questioning, Jungian shadow work, and Meridian Tapping—into an
easy to use system that allows people to process their emotional
upsets, work through trauma, correct poor thinking, discover
meaning, set healthy boundaries, refine their viewpoints, and to
achieve a positive focus.


This epic conversation is not only a deep dive into the 3 pillars
of the Trivium: grammar/knowledge, logic/understanding and
rhetoric/wisdom, but also into the foundation of critical
thinking, truth finding & character development enabling real
Self empowerment:

& develop your personality

it's not taught to us

courage, empathy, autonomy, integrity, perseverance, confidence
in reason, and fair mindedness
- Monological vs. multilogical thinking
