Category: Human Behavior Insights
In this episode, Armand DiMele discusses the concept of games and life scripts, exploring how childhood experiences shape adult behavior and relationships. He is joined by Dr. Claude Steiner, an expert in transactional analysis, who explains how people often repeat negative patterns in their interactions, leading to emotional games like ‘uproar’ and ‘do me something.’ The conversation delves into the importance of recognizing these scripts and the potential for change through awareness and emotional literacy. Listeners are encouraged to reflect on their own patterns and consider how they can foster healthier relationships.
