Essential Skills for Humaning Podcast

In this episode of the Essential Skills for Humaning podcast, Christina Eanes and Lori Muhlstein explore the Calm Decision Framework and the idea that most bad decisions aren’t logic failures; they’re state failures. When we’re exhausted, rushed, or emotionally triggered, our nervous system narrows our thinking and pushes us toward quick relief rather than thoughtful resolution. We discuss how regulating your state before evaluating options, identifying the real decision being made, recognizing whether a choice is reversible, and assigning clear ownership can dramatically improve the quality of decisions at work and at home. Because the quality of your decisions rarely exceeds the quality of the state you’re in when you make them. For more info about Christina, Lori, or Eanes Training, visit EanesTraining.com.

In this episode of the Essential Skills for Humaning podcast, Christina Eanes and Lori Muhlstein explore the connection between physical resilience and mental resilience, and how the state of our bodies influences how we think, lead, and communicate.

The conversation highlights how incremental physical progress reinforces “not yet” thinking and why our physical state often shapes how we interpret challenges, respond to stress, and show up in conversations. Because resilience isn’t just mental, it’s physical, too. For more info about Christina, Lori, or Eanes Training, visit EanesTraining.com.
