#24 | The Trivium & Empathetic Reasoning: Critical Thinking & Character Development | Nathan Martin

My guest today is Nathan Martin! He co-created an integrative methodology called the Unity Process, which combines the philosophy of Natural Law, the Trivium Method, Socratic Questioning, Jungian shadow work, and Meridian Tapping—into an easy to use system that allows people to process their emotional upsets, work through trauma, correct poor thinking, discover meaning, set healthy boundaries, refine their viewpoints, and to achieve a positive focus.

This epic conversation is not only a deep dive into the 3 pillars of the Trivium: grammar/knowledge, logic/understanding and rhetoric/wisdom, but also into the foundation of critical thinking, truth finding & character development enabling real Self empowerment:

- How to unravel limiting beliefs, become emotional intelligent & develop your personality
- The bridge from knowledge to wisdom
- The formula for truth
- How to become truly autonomous
- The power of questions
- What it means to have Jesus in your heart
- How to expose lies and spot manipulations
- Why it was prohibited to teach the Trivium to slaves and why it's not taught to us
- Why the difference between debate & dialogue matters
- Etymology and distorted meanings
- Dominance vs. control
- Why poor thinking causes poor results
- Understanding the why is what gives true power
- The power of abductive reasoning
- Self delusion and the Dunning–Kruger effect
- The eight universal intellectual standards for critical thinking: clarity, accuracy, precision, relevance, depth, breadth, logic, and fairness
- The eight character traits of critical thinking: humility, courage, empathy, autonomy, integrity, perseverance, confidence in reason, and fair mindedness
- Monological vs. multilogical thinking
- Reasoned judgement vs opinion
- Why irrationality is egocentric
- The power of empathy
- Why rhetoric is the ability to persuade reality
- The 3 types of rhetorical appeal: ethos, logos, pathos
- True philosophy: seeking the truth regardless of who is correct vs. sophistry: seeking to win regardless of what is true
- Why knowing about grammatical and logical fallacies is important
