This continued discussion around Games People Play (a follow up from last week's episode 292) was inspired by the late Psychiatrist Eric Berne, pioneer of Transactional Analysis and the author of “Games People Play: The Psychology of Human Relationships.”

What are the ego states and roles we often assume in our relationships that create patterns of thoughts, beliefs and behaviors which construct barriers to meaningful connection? Perhaps an even more important question than why do others do this, is why do we? Especially when it often brings about the experiences and outcomes in our relationships that we don’t want.

This is one of the many examples of why self-awareness is the key to or the lock on our growth and development. If we are going to make positive changes in our relationships, we have to make positive changes in the way we relate. Not only with others, but to ourselves as well. Do we see ourselves objectively? It’s not uncommon for us to play similar games when communicating with ourselves as we do with others. How do we recognize these patterns and is there a way to change them? 

Bobby shares quite a bit of his personal experience in this episode (so do I.. but that's no surprise is it!)

Life hits hard. Good. So do we.
Roll With The Punches is a front-row seat to the messy, beautiful, brutal bits of being human.

Hosted by Tiff Cook - former boxer, coach, speaker, rascal, and someone who’s copped a few uppercuts from life and keeps getting back up. She sits down with global survivors, scientists, rebels, rockstars, and everyday legends to ask one thing:

What does it really take to get back up when life drops you?

We talk breakdowns, breakthroughs, big truths, and the bullsh*t we all carry. Behind the masks. Beneath the armour. Real conversations that crack something open in all of us.

We’re built to break.
And we become dangerous by design.
Honest work over hard work. Every damn time.
