In this episode, Kristi shares a surprising moment of joy sparked by an ordinary visit to a community pool—and how an unexpected waterslide ride became a reminder of the importance of play, surrender, and fun in adult life. The episode then shifts into a practical communication coaching segment focused on empowering jurors through clear teaching, emotional pacing, and accessible language so they feel confident, capable, and prepared to deliberate.
When jurors feel knowledgeable, emotionally supported, and included, they rise to the responsibility of decision-making. Your job isn't to overwhelm or impress—it's to empower.
The realization that cultivating fun and play isn't a reward for productivity—it's a necessary part of staying fully alive.
