Send us a Message - let us know what you think of the episode This week we are continuing our mini-series on Transactional Analysis – a powerful tool for understanding human behaviour and communication. We build here on the concepts we looked at in last week’s episode so if you haven’t listened to that already go back and familiarise with it before launching into this one.In this episode we cover what Transactions are and explore the idea of Strokes – those essential units of human recognition that we all crave. Why do we need them, and how do they shape our interactions?We also look at the different types of Transactions that occur between our Ego states. We break down Crossed Transactions, where miscommunications often arise, and Ulterior Transactions, where hidden agendas come into play. That leads us into a brief look at the Psychological Games people play, finishing with some tips on how we can achieve authentic human connection and intimacy with the people in our lives.So, whether you’re an actor looking to deepen your character work or simply curious about the intricacies of human interaction, this episode promises to be a thought-provoking journey into the heart of Transactional Analysis.Transactional Analysis Podcast (TAP):https://open.spotify.com/show/19HAvWJzTsjMIMzAmMteddBook a Live Intro Seminar for the SPOA:https://spiritualpsychologyofacting.com/courses/online-intro-seminar/Support us on Patreon:www.patreon.com/TheSpiritualPsychologyofActingPodcastIf you’d like to get in touch with us, you can do so by emailing [email protected] you have any feedback, thoughts, topics you think we should cover in future episodes or questions about the Spiritual Psychology of Acting…whatever it is, we’d love to hear from you.
