Tarot, Part 3: Claude Kills the Woo Woo and Makes the Science Case
from Anatomy of Conflict · host Ryan McLaughlin
Claude is back for round three, and this time we're settling the debate. Projection cards, oracle decks, tarot — call them whatever you want, but the mechanism is pure neuroscience. In this episode, Claude breaks down the research on affect labeling, somatic priming, and nervous system regulation, and shows exactly why these tools belong in the mediation room. We also get into spousal support impasse, why fairness is a feeling not a number, and the one reframe that makes skeptical clients stop rolling their eyes. If you've been curious about these tools, but afraid of the woo woo label, this is your episode.
