Jordan talks with professional mediator Chris Sorensen about how we can use mediation and the mediation mindset to ease big and small conflicts with family, friends, colleagues and strangers\u2014sometimes immediately.

The resulting, nonstop stress continued through college until he reluctantly enrolled in a stress management class that led to much less stress, a degree in public health, a job as Columbia University\u2019s health education director and now a career as a global stress management speaker, trainer and author. For 25 years, Jordan's been privileged to help and learn from 9\/11 survivors, teachers, CEOs, police officers, incarcerated adults, students and lots of other stressed people who want to be more successful, get better grades, sleep easier and be healthier. In 2004, Jordan founded The Stress Coach to provide innovative workshops, multimedia webinars, chill apps, online courses and more stress-relief opportunities. The Chill Factory podcast is Jordan's latest effort to bring stress relief and better health to the world. ","author_name":"The Chill Factory","author_url":"http:\/\/www.thechillfactory.net","html":"
