That's why Claude has become the if you know, you know, choice for dating advice, career coaching, gathering your thoughts for those important life decisions, and more. Give Claude a try for free at clawd.com that's C-L-A-U--E.com and let us know how you feel the difference Foreign welcome back to intentionally disturbing with Dr. Leslie, forensic psychologist. Today's episode is going to be a bit different because I want to answer your questions. So on my social media platforms I asked you to submit questions about safety. Safety I wanted you to ask me about self defense, how to protect children, co parenting, online threats, workplace danger, and here I am answering your questions. Now. Some I didn't have the answers to and I had to read about. Some I asked some people in the FBI, some people in police departments, CIA, other therapists and even lawyers. So I can't own that all of this information is straight from me, but I can say that it is professional and reliable. And if you like this episode, let's keep doing it because if we can keep even one child or one person safe, it is worth it. We're going to start with personal safety and self defense. Questions and Recommendations this section focuses on tools, instincts and strategies to protect yourself and your loved ones in everyday life and high risk situations. So to answer our first question from not yours O love this name. Not sure what it means. Good boundary setting though. What is the best form of protection to keep my daughter and me safe when we already have protective orders in place? I get this question a lot and people may not fully understand it. So this is likely a mom and a child who has a restraining order from an ex husband, an estranged husband or wife and they are not allowed to be around them but the person is still trying to be around them. One of my biggest recommendations is that you are always ready to call someone and you know they are going to answer. You always have your phone charged and on your favorites list. It's not just 911 but it's somebody that you have a promise with that if your name comes across their phone they will answer and immediately they will start record recording everything and anything that they hear because you need witnesses if somebody is going to break a tro. Now additionally there are a lot of amazing recorders that you can have in your pocket. Some are the size of like a lip gloss, they're tiny of a thumb drive and you can immediately just tap your pocket and record any noise, anything that shows that this person is aggressing against you. I also highly recommend voluntarily offering updates to the police that are involved with your case. The detectives, investigators, lawyers, judges. Even if it's the FBI and you have an FBI agent assigned to you, update them, let them know what is going on. If you have the funds for a private investigator, I think it is very okay to keep tabs on what your estranged ex is doing. Who are they? Where are they? Are they online? Do they have a social presence? Keep tabs on them so that you can keep clear from them. But the biggest thing is to be aware. You don't want to be crazy and paranoid, right? But you have to be vigilant. And this is a very high stakes game, especially when you're protecting yourself and your daughter. So stay aware. Stay vigilant. Have your phone prepared and ready. Have multiple phones ready. You can have two iPhones, you can have a GoPro. Lots of things to record. Always document everything. All right, we have another question from the Susie, can you talk about situational awareness and self defense products that actually help? Yes I can Susie. So situational awareness is huge for me and that is also why I don't always return my shopping cart. That video went viral and most people didn't understand it. But over time, as the conversation grew, people started to think, hey, I'm in a parking lot, I don't feel safe. I'm going to return my cart because I don't want someone else to judge me or yell at me that I'm leaving my cart up on a curb or in another spot. Choosing other people's judgment or fearing their judgment over you, choosing your gut intuition and instinct, not okay. So for me, situational awareness is one being aware of you, the feelings inside you, and also being aware of your environment and trusting what you think and perceive in your environment. If you feel off and you can't find the words to understand or really explain why you feel off or nervous or anxious, anything, get yourself out of that situation and be safe. Go align yourself with a member of staff. If it's the grocery store, somebody who works there, whatever you can do to feel safe. And who cares if you don't fully understand why you're doing it? Trust yourself and let the words and the understanding come later. Even if you have to ask for forgiveness for being dramatic, you have kept yourself safe and likely those around you safe as well. I had a moment like this at Nordstrom Rack, which is my therap. I love digging around at Nordstrom Rack and I saw a couple guys following me and they were not the type of guys that were going to be in the women's shoe aisle. And as I walked around the store, they kept kind of looking at me. They didn't have bags, they didn't seem to have wallets. They weren't collecting items. They did not seem like they were shopping there. As I kept walking around, I made sure to go back to areas I had already been. But I was staying on the perimeter of the store where the staff could see me and I did not feel comfortable. And I told a staff member that this seemed very odd. As I was talking to a staff member, the two men walked outside and I thought, okay, so I'm gonna have a staff member escort me to my car. As they escorted me to my car, police were arresting those two individuals. Now, I don't know what they were planning to do with me. I don't know if they were trying to traffic me because it's way more common than you think. I don't know if they just wanted to rob me. Who knows, maybe they wanted my autograph. No one has ever wanted my aut, but whatever. I didn't feel safe. I don't care. I'm keeping myself safe and that's how I did it. So trust yourself and stand up for yourself no matter what. Now, with regard to self defense products, I know it's very hard depending on where you live. I know in Australia and in Canada, it's very hard in places where you can't have self defense. I say find a workaround. Find a workaround and practice with it. Even if it's a very strong pen, even if it's dog spray or bear spray, even if you say you're going to baseball practice but you're not actually on the team, but you've got a bag of bats in your car, find a way around it and keep yourself safe because the law should not dictate your safety when a lot of the time the law does not protect us. Now for the people who can have protective measures, I am all for guns. I am all for getting your ccw, your conceal and carry and thoroughly understanding how to use a gun. If there's a misfire, what do you do? Do you know how to clean it? Do you know what a gun does? Do you know how to shoot at a target and actually hit what you want to shoot? Do you know how to shoot? To injure, not to kill, just to get away, to keep yourself safe? Do you understand the rules when you can shoot? Do you understand castle law? Do you understand when somebody can actually come in your house and you can't actually shoot them? They have to look like they're aggress if an incident plays out. Do you understand what you have to do after you have to shoot an individual? You need to try and save their life. I mean, these rules are crazy. You need to understand it now if you don't want to commit to an actual gun. And there's a lot of fear, especially in California, about weapons to that degree. There are companies like Ungun and those are kind of like bbs that hurt and really will push a perpetrator back, but you're not going to likely kill somebody. I always say Pepper Spray Sabre is kind of the company that everyone uses. I really like the company safely because when you buy the pepper spray, what you get is a practice spray. And I don't know about you, but for a long time I carried pepper spray and I had never used it before. I didn't know that you need to take the pepper spray and you need to basically spray like you're spraying a Z and then another Z flipped over and then a square. So you're kind of building a shield of pepper spray because it's going to stay there and you want to use the gel, pepper spray gel, so that it doesn't blow back in your face if it's windy. These are great tools. I also like, there are tools where you can wear a ring and on the underside of the ring, it's a taser. You can wear a ring that you could stab somebody with because it's sharp enough to get away. Right. So we have a lot of tools that we can carry. Hairpins. We can also be careful with our situation and we don't want to invite ourselves to be a victim. What I hate is victim blaming. No one deserves to be the victim. But at the same time, it's very rare that someone knows that they are going to be a victim. So advice from working in prison that I have and advice from many colleagues in this field of threat assessment and threat mitigation is don't wear AirPods when you're out on a run, don't go running at night. It's just simply not safe and not worth it. If you really want to wear AirPods, just wear one. Don't have your hair in a ponytail. Put it in a bun. It's harder to grab. If anything, put a hood over your hair. You don't want to look like an easy victim because most perpetrators do not want to fight. They just want to get what they want. And usually that is something. Something from you. They want to rob you or they want to sexually assault you. So there's an element of command presence. There's an element of walking with power, walking with confidence. Walk as though you are not someone to be fucked with. And if you can't find that within yourself, borrow it from someone else. Picture somebody else who does it and just act like them until you have the confidence to do it yourself. One thing I taught a lot of students when I was a professor was to go home and look in the mirror and practice. Practice things like, that is my vagina. You cannot touch it. Get your penis away from me. Your hand is on my butt. That is fondling. Raise your voice, make it louder, keep going, even scream. And understand what that feels like. So that when you're in a moment of distress, it is easier to grab on to that skill and keep yourself safe. If you are going to wear AirPods, I highly suggest you wear just one, but also keep it in that transparent mode and don't do the full sound blocking mode because you won't be able to hear somebody coming up on that side. One criminal I worked with, his favorite move and it worked so well, was that he would look for women and he would come up and he would give them a side hug and it was very, it was very nice. You know, just somebody coming up and saying, hey, I haven't seen you in a while. So of course you're gonna look over at him and think, who is this? An old friend. Well, what's he doing? The other hand is in your purse, taking your wallet and then he's off. And that's a very common way that they rob you. We're gonna take a quick break and we'll be right back.

There'S the part of me that everyone sees. I'm Howie Mandel, the comedian. Apparently I know what funny is. Funny bought me a house. But I also know what isn't funny. Ocd. I've lived with OCD my entire life and people throw the term around like it's no big deal. But OCD is severe, often debilitating. It's a mental health condition that involves unrelented, unwanted thoughts that can make you question your character, your beliefs, even your safety. General therapy can help with some things, but for ocd, it can actually make things worse. That's why I want to tell you about nocd. NOCD is the world's largest treatment provider for OCD and is covered by Insurance for over 155 million Americans. Their licensed therapists specialize in ERP, the most effective treatment for OCD. If you think you might be struggling with OCD, go to nocd.com to book a free 50, 15 minute call. They are here to help.

Okay, well Susie, you got a mouthful there from me. So let's move on to Medusa. Cane Corso. Oh, I like that. Cane Corso. Just please tell me that you have them Trained really well because those are some badass dogs. How do we teach kids to use their gut feelings and not worry about being rude or embarrassed when someone gives them a bad vibe? Oh, I know. My daughter's 8, and I'm in this right now, and I practice a lot with her. So one thing we do is if we're going on a hike, if we're in a park, even if we're in the mall, anywhere, I ask her to look around at the people that she sees, and I ask her to profile them. I want her to tell me, do you think that this is a good person? What do you see in their clothing? What do you think their personality is like? Do you think they're married? Do you think they have kids? Do you think they have a job? Do you think they work here? And I just let her freely tell me those answers, and then I ask her, well, how did you come to that determination? How did you learn that? What led you to think that that guy was homeless rather than a construction worker? And we get down to the details, and there's a lot of teaching I can do in those moments. But the biggest thing is there's a lot of empowerment that she finds when she's correct. So an example is, you know, if someone's homeless, get away. I don't care. Get away from them. You're a child. You shouldn't be near anyone who looks like they're homeless. Now, what if they're a construction worker and you didn't know? Her answer typically is, I look at their shoes. Their shoes tell me a lot, because construction workers wear boots. She also looks at their hair. She looks at if it's clean, if there are things in their hair. She is well aware of when somebody is talking to themselves or if they're hearing voices, and that can make them more impulsive or dangerous. She's aware of paraphernalia. If people have little things that they're messing with that could possibly be. She doesn't know what it is. But heroin or methamphetamine, any kind of little thing like that, she picks up on, and it empowers her to say, you know what? I don't trust this moment, and I don't have to apologize for it. Another example is my daughter in school when the little boys were kind of teasing the girls in the bathroom. And my daughter thought, this isn't right. Like, girls should be able to just go to the bathroom without the boys outside teasing them, because, you know, they keep the main door to the bathroom open in elementary school. And she told the principal, she said, you know, I don't want to get anyone in trouble, but these boys are teasing us and you know, when we want to go pee, it just feels like a private moment. And the principal said, you know, you are completely right. I'm going to go talk to those boys. So another moment where she felt empowered and she felt confident and sure, there are times where she's wrong, but I tell her, you know, you keep yourself safe, you keep your friends and your family safe and you ask for forgiveness later. And that in itself is empowering and confidence building in a child. All right, we're moving on to HHG445. I'm not sure what that means. I'm not going to guess anything. What safety tips do you have for minors who walk alone in parks, streets and forests but can't carry protection? My immediate reaction is to not allow that to happen, but I know that, that, that's just not something we can completely control. So get your kids in martial arts, get your kids in self defense classes. You know, we don't want to always anticipate the worst case scenario, but we should be prepared for it. A few months ago in Carmel by the sea, which is a quaint little town up in Northern California, a young girl, I want to say she was 12 or 13, was just crossing a street. I think she was outside Lush, like the beauty product store. I go there all the time. It's an amazing, cute. You feel so safe. That town. And an adult grown man over six feet tried to take her. I don't know what his plan was. That girl was trained in jiu jitsu and she wrecked him. She broke both his ankles and took him down. And it was such a proud moment for me as a mom seeing that these parents had thoroughly trained this child to protect herself. Now I know that's a high standard, but you know, if you're thinking of an activity, get your kids involved in an activity where they understand their body, their body movements and how to protect themselves. Even just child self defense classes. And I know minors can't carry guns and things like that, but again, they can be careful with how they have their AirPods. They can always go in pairs or groups. Everyone should have life360. They should have bark phones at and T. There's so much technology where you can be tracked. You know, put on an airplane, put it in your shoe, put it in your backpack, have it on your wrist, wear it as a necklace, get that ring that everyone has nowadays. It comes in gold. It's super cute, but let your family know where you are at all times. And some of these apps will also tell your family if your heart rate is rising and that can alert, it'll go straight to their phones. The Bark Phone the Bark app is the technology is so cool. It will text the parents right away and say there's loud noise, there's violence, there's bad language, there's commotion going on around your child. So the child needs to leave one point, arrive at another point. People need to be aware of that transition. People need to know that there are safety measures in place on the child, in the child's mind, and that other people are with the child or the minor as they are moving about their business. Because we can't always, we can't always be there to be with our kids and they need to learn how to adult. So this is a good way to start adulting. It's time for a commercial break.

I can't tell you how often I hear, oh, I'm a little ocd. I like things neat. That's not ocd. I'm Howie Mandel and I know this because I have ocd. Actual OCD causes relentless unwanted thoughts. What if I did something terrible and forgot? What if I'm a bad person? Why am I thinking this terrible thing? It makes you question absolutely everything and you'll do anything to feel better. OCD is debilitating, but it's also highly treatable with the right kind of therapy. Regular talk therapy doesn't cut it. OCD needs specialized therapy. That's why I want to tell you about NO cd. NOCD is the world's largest virtual therapy provider for ocd. Their licensed therapists provide specialized therapy virtually and it's covered by insurance for over 155 million Americans.

That's nocd.com okay, jumping over to Mrs. Jennifer Dare. Is there any rehabilitation for offenders? What would it look look like if nothing was off the table? I see what you're getting. Like, are we talking about castration here? If we are talking about castration, I have had pedophilic clients actually blow their penises off and they still reoffend. So it's not all about the penis or the sexual stimulation. There is rehabilitation, but offenders predominantly respond to consequences. And I think that we need to pair rehabilitation and therapy, if not psychopathic, because therapy really doesn't work with psychopaths. But we need to pair that with consequences. So if we're talking about sex offenders, we've got the ankle monitor, we've got probation check ins. They have to be inside on Halloween evening. They have to tell everyone they're a sex offender before they have sex. There are so many rules and regulations that come with that crime if they're not in prison, Right. And then prison does tend to take care of itself. But for non sex offenders, for violent offenders, oftentimes the consequences of being on parole or probation are helpful as well as bringing their family back to them and trying to help that estranged relationship bring back meaning to their life, bring back purpose. A lot of offenders I've worked with have joined groups that are anti gang, that teach kids, teens how to not get arrested. They go and they speak. I have a friend named Jimmy, three time bank robber. He goes and he speaks to kids and he says, hey, this is what it's really like when you're in prison and you don't want this now. He doesn't want to terrify them, but he wants to educate them enough so that they understand it's really not worth it. And it's not just don't do it right. It's also what else can you do? How can we find you ways to keep yourself busy, to keep, keep yourself interested? What are other avenues when you are stuck in a situation where crime seems like the only option? So yes, I think there's a combination of rehabilitation and consequences. But in all honesty, especially in California, I think we absolutely suck at it. I think we let people out of prison and we drop them right back into the neighborhood that got them arrested in the first place. The corner where they get their drugs, the gang members that are going to re recruit them and everybody just gets tangled right back. We need a lot of changes. We need a lot of changes at a legislative level. We need a lot more funding not going towards, you know, housing the homeless that aren't that still use drugs. We need funding going towards figuring out actually how to stop crimes, hold people accountable and offer treatment that is actually realistic to what they need and what they're willing to do so that they don't re offend. Okay, jumping over to Renee. What can we do to help protect college aged girls from being drugged or harmed in social settings? That one just cut like a knife because. Because that happened to me and I wasn't protective. That's why I have been partnering with companies to start pushing out some of these incredible products. So I'm partnering with. Nope. And what they have come up with are these. Well, they have drink covers which are incredible. So you can cover your drink and nobody can spike it or put drugs in it. And they're hot pink, which is my favorite color. But the big thing is that they have drug test strips and they have these strips that test for 17 different. The most Common drugs used to do a date rape. And you can get a drop of your drink in there in whatever which way you do it with the straw, a spoon, something. You go to the bathroom and do it, and within seconds they say, like, give it a minute. But from when I've tested it, it's been within seconds. It's positive for substances. And so keep that in your pocket. I think that's amazing. I also really advocate for safety tools and safety devices for young girls, like pepper spray, like spring blade, knives, whatever. You're allowed to have to just tell the guy to back away. But at the end of the day, don't put yourself in a situation where you may be victimized. And I know that's hard to hear, but don't go somewhere alone. Don't let a boy pressure you into a date in an isolated area when you feel like you don't know him well enough. You know, don't have sex with anyone unless there is monogamy. You know, make a list of who you think you are, Make a list of who you think, what you think the world thinks of you, and then ask other people what you think teenage boys think of you, because it's going to be a lot different than what you think of yourself. So the biggest advice I would have is know your stimulus value. Know that every person sees you differently. And when it comes to being in college and this initial rumspringa, this freedom from the restraints of high school and living at home, know that you are a target to boys because boys want to have sex with girls and they will find ways to do it. And some boys aren't all great boys. So keep protected. And like I said before, let everyone know where you are. Let your family know know. Keep those devices on your phone. If anyone's ever pressuring you to hide something, to lie, if they're ever threatening you, that is an immediate indication that that is something wrong. There's something wrong. You need to do something opposite. It's an immediate indication that that is predatory behavior. Because you should never, ever have secrets from your loved ones. So pick a loved one that you tell everything to, and you make sure you tell everything, even if it's ridiculous, even if it's like, I don't know how to have sex. I don't know how to fully get the penis in, because that is often a college problem. He's pressuring me. I don't know if the kissing was how I really thought it should go. It seemed kind of weird. He wouldn't let my lips Go. These are things you need to talk to people about and you shouldn't keep them inside. So have a person that knows where you are and knows everything about you and that you can really go to to keep yourself safe. I know I went on bit of a tangent, but it's definitely close to home for me. Okay, we're going to jump into our last question for this episode from 1960. What can you do to keep yourself safe online? Now that is a very broad question when we are talking about personal safety. But I actually think a lot of people don't know that. There are a lot of companies out there that will clean the Internet of your information. So I think companies like Deleteme, Reputation Defender, there are a lot of places and you can Google this and you can look at their reviews and everything, but they will life360 is one too. But they will go through the Internet and they will find individual words like your home address that you don't want out there and they will delete it. There's also a way to rebuild reputation so they will front load a lot of good information about you. Or what they'll do is put other information out there and then bury the personal information about yourself. So there's a lot of ways online to keep yourself safe and manipulate what people are allowed to see when they just go ahead and google something. But my mind goes immediately to social media and keeping your yourself safe there. So like I really don't agree with lives. If you're doing a live, make sure you're in a secure location and make sure you're thinking that if you're doing a live, somebody's going to be able to find you, they know where you are and at the same time they know where you're not. They know you're not with your kids, they know you're not at home, they know you're not with your dog, you're not in the office, whatever it may be. Always think of that option opposite. Go into your Instagram, go into your TikTok, go into your YouTube, put there's a section of security where you can list words that you do not want anyone to comment on. They will not be allowed to be placed on your accounts. And that can be your home address, family member names, your Social Security number. You don't want to get doxed on your own accounts. And then if you are doxxed on the Internet you also to be aware and have these companies looking for it. Now one thing I also often suggest is be familiar with your local police Department. They are the good guys. I hate to say it, but they have devoted their lives to keeping you safe. And when they get calls, they have to figure out if the calls are real or not, right? There's a big thing going on in this world called swatting, where people are calling the police department and telling them some terrorists terrifying story. Somebody's being held hostage at gunpoint at this address. And what do the police do? They go nuts. They go full force, right? They are ready for battle and they are going to break down doors to save someone, as they should. But what if it's not true? What if it's just somebody like an estranged ex screwing with you? Be familiar with your local police department. Let them know who you are. You can even have signs that you put out on your gate or your front door saying who you are. You can have your cell phone number put there. But in some way, keep yourself safe so that if there are false allegations against you as well on the Internet and online, you can fight against that. Another tool I learned from the FBI is to go into Google Maps and you have the option to blur out your home now. So there are a lot of ways you can take your number off the Internet, your email addresses, your personal information, your age, your family members, and you can bl out street names and you can blur out the actual look of your house, because people will look at your house as they are getting ready to rob you. If they're not going to do it in person because you have cameras, they're going to go online, they're going to look at the exits, they're going to take those. You know, we have those virtual tours now of homes. They're going to walk themselves through their home. How would I steal this tv? How would I enter, steal the tv, and how would I enter, exit? So with online safety, that's very important. When it comes to online safety with children, my biggest thing is that there are no secrets. Tell your child, if somebody is telling you online to keep a secret, that they need to tell you right away that anybody online is not a friend. If you have not met a person in. In. If you. Anybody online is not your friend. If you're playing video games and you think you. You're talking to somebody who's 13 and you're 13, it may be a grown adult who is beginning to groom you. So educate yourself on online grooming, on predatory behavior. Educate yourself on what can actually happen through the Internet and where you lose your power and your safety simply because you're unaware and you haven't been informed. Oops. Commercial time.

There's a part of me that everyone sees. I'm Howie Mandel, the comedian. Apparently I know what funny is. Funny bought me a house. But I also know what isn't funny. OC ocd. I've lived with OCD my entire life. And people throw the term around like it's no big deal. But OCD is severe, often debilitating. It's a mental health condition that involves unrelented unwanted thoughts that can make you question your character, your beliefs, even your safety. General therapy can help with some things, but for ocd, it can actually make things worse. That's why I want to tell you about no cd. NO cd OCD is the world's largest treatment provider for OCD and is covered by Insurance for over 155 million Americans. Their licensed therapists specialize in ERP, the most effective treatment for OCD. If you think you might be struggling with OCD, go to nocd.com to book a free 15 minute call. They are here to help.
