Juliet dovetails her 30-year career in the courtroom as a persuasion strategist with her personal healing experience to create a unique perspective talking with guests about testifying under oath. As a persuasion strategist working on high profile, high stakes, and billion-dollar litigation, she has witnessed the distress sitting in the witness chair can cause in one’s life and its lasting effects. As a breathwork practitioner she has experienced the joy one can feel when facing trauma head on. She offers a platform that brings to light the trauma caused by testifying and offers a different approach one can take to prepare to take the stand and how to heal after the encounter.

Join me with &#34;white collar&#34; trial attorney Gail Shifman as she explains the differences and similarities of street criminals vs. white collar criminals and how the process unfolds in the legal system, especially when it is a former President of the US United States. In this unprecedented indictment, Gail discusses how the system can work in the favor of someone of such high profile yet how once arrested, the status of the convict is now exactly the same and he is referred to as a &#34;criminal&#34;.

In today&#39;s episode with Fritzi Horstman, founder of the Compassion Prison Project, we discuss the moral injuries that those of us involved in the legal system face, including making us lose empathy and compassion. She asks listeners to keep in mind that we are humans who have hurt each other, and we must see through fear and anger to find compassion. She asks us to look at the fact that most prisoners only know violence as a solution in their lives, and that 90% of those incarcerated have incurred some type of childhood violence or trauma.

In part 2 of my continued conversation with Jason Van Tatenhove, he describes, in vivid detail, how visiting the Holocaust Museum in Washington DC gave him the strength and courage to testify against the Oath Keepers. He describes his relief for having a law firm who believed in him enough to accept him as part of their pro-bono program since he had no resources to defend himself. He also gives a step-by-step account of what it was like be an average person one day, then surrounded by armed guards and 100s of photographers within 24 hours. He got through it by staying focused on how he could make something better for his daughters in the world they are going to inherit.

Sharing how he reinvented himself after leaving the organization, he went on to teach his kids that it’s ok to &#34;mess up, but then work on making it right.&#34; He then leads us into what it was like to testify in front of the Jan 6th Congressional Committee.

Join me for a short commentary on how cameras in the courtroom are a double edge sword for witnesses, especially when they’re faced with reliving trauma in their lives. In those cases, cameras are the difference between the real time testimony and the media&#39;s interpretation of court&#39;s proceedings.

In a fascinating and educational conversation, Dr. Stephanie Maj walks us through the scientific steps of how trauma physically affects the body. Not only does it impact functions like long term memory and emotional muscle memory, it also weakens the frontal lobe of the brain which compromises complex thought, therefore possibly compromising a witnesses’ memory when taking the stand. Dr. Maj also shares how trauma irritates the nervous system and how healing the nervous system helps heal the trauma.
