• 1198: Caroline Fleck | Harnessing Validation to Deepen Human Connection

  People crave feeling understood, but rarely get it. Here, psychologist Dr. Caroline Fleck breaks down validation science that transforms how we connect!Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1198What We Discuss with Dr. Caroline Fleck:Validation goes beyond praise. It's a precise psychological skill set that allows us to communicate mindfulness, understanding, and empathy to make someone feel seen and accepted. To understand the difference, think of praise as applauding the performance, while validation is accepting the performer.Research shows that validation literally allows us to endure greater physical pain, suggesting its resilience-building power to help us cope with life's countless difficulties.Obversely, invalidation shuts down recall and problem-solving abilities by triggering sympathetic nervous system arousal. On the other hand, validation restores higher cognitive functioning needed for reasoning.Validation skills are powerful across contexts — from relationships and parenting to medicine and even interrogations. But keep in mind that authenticity is critical — fake or forced validation doesn’t work and can even feel condescending, especially to teens.Validation is a skill you can practice and improve. Nurture a mindset of genuine curiosity by asking yourself "What's this person's point?" Start with small steps like attentive listening, nodding, and reflecting words authentically to build stronger trust and connection.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!

• 1197: CBD | Skeptical Sunday

  CBD is hyped as a miracle cure for everything, but where's the proof? Jessica Wynn breaks down the science vs. snake oil here on Skeptical Sunday!Welcome to Skeptical Sunday, a special edition of The Jordan Harbinger Show where Jordan and a guest break down a topic that you may have never thought about, open things up, and debunk common misconceptions. This time around, we’re joined by Jessica Wynn!Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1197On This Week's Skeptical Sunday:Cannabis-sourced cannabidiol (CBD) is widely marketed as a safe cure-all, but most claims — especially for chronic pain, anxiety, and sleep — lack solid scientific backing.The CBD industry is poorly regulated — products may be mislabeled, contaminated, or contain THC, which can cause legal or workplace issues.The only FDA-approved medical use of CBD is Epidiolex, a prescription drug for rare childhood epilepsy — not the casual oils, gummies, or lattes sold in stores.Dosage, purity, and method of use all matter — yet most over-the-counter CBD products provide far lower doses than those shown effective in clinical trials.If you choose to use CBD products, be an informed consumer — look for third-party lab certificates (COAs), consult your doctor if you take medications, and approach packaging claims with curiosity and skepticism.Connect with Jordan on Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube.

• 1195: Javier Leiva | Modern Romance Scam Tactics and Ways to Fight Back

  Beyond catfishing, romance scammers are moving in with victims and rewriting wills. Here, Pretend Podcast host Javier Leiva exposes their new playbook.Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1195What We Discuss with Javier Leiva:Romance scams are so common that identical fake stories (architect in Indonesia, talking to Johnny Depp) are used with thousands of victims simultaneously, making them seem like urban legends.Scammers target vulnerable people by checking boxes: isolated from family, cognitive decline, terminal illness, government pension, loneliness. More boxes = bigger mark.Advanced scammers move in with victims, become caregivers, get named as estate executors, then move on to victim's elderly relatives when the person dies.Damage goes beyond money — victims often become unable to trust again and avoid relationships entirely, while family stress affects everyone for years.Watch for red flags: excessive early generosity, isolating behavior, urgent requests bypassing reasoning, password/financial access requests, sob stories. Trust family concerns.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!
