The Psychological Games People Play

Season 3 · Episode 8

jeudi 15 août 2024 • Duration 01:15:47

Have you ever found yourself in a conversation that feels strangely familiar, like you’re following a script you’ve played out a hundred times before? Do you ever wonder why certain interactions with others leave you feeling frustrated, confused, or even infuriated? What if I told you that these patterns are part of a hidden game – one you might not even realise you’re playing?

In part three of our mini-series on Transactional Analysis we’re exploring a fascinating and vital part of the TA world – the Games People Play as outlined in Eric Berne’s groundbreaking book of the same name.

In this episode, we’re joined again by our resident expert, Sarah Lowes, to help take us through some of the most interesting and often played games from Berne’s book – along the way we’ll discover how these games can dictate our relationships, influence our emotions, and even determine our life choices. But what exactly are these games, why do we play them, and – most importantly – how can we break free from them?
