Episode Summary

This episode of the Fearless Mindset Podcast is the second part of our conversation with Miranda Coppoolse, Behavior Analyst and Security Risk Advisor at MC Global Security Consulting. Talking to kids with trauma is more like an interrogation of how things operate today. Miranda shares how she created a forensic program that helps organizations interview kids in a non-threatening and emphatic way, as interrogating usually does more harm than good. She also gives her insight on discarding ego and how loyalty and hard work can make women thrive in the EP industry. GOLDEN NUGGETS A step-by-step program that treats trauma victims with empathy - Miranda: "When kids are being interviewed, it's not really interviewing, it's more on an interrogation. And for young people or even people with trauma, that is very threatening, so you don't really dare to say anything anymore. So it requires really a certain technique and empathy almost to do that." "Because I can give you, for instance, the sheet on how to do it or the questions, but some people just don't have that. They cannot make a connection with a kid or a bond so, I created a step-by-step program in where I help organizations who are in that field to interview those victims." Loyalty and hard work are the keys to success for women in EP - Miranda: "Just go after what you want. It's oftentimes hard because it's not an easy industry. So that's what you have to realize, it's a lot of training and you have to continue getting trained, get as much experience as you can. Believe in yourself. Just keep going. If it's really what you want, and especially in executive protection for ladies, there are not that many. So once you're good enough, I mean trained enough and ready for it, there's a lot of work out there. But yeah, just be honest and be loyal and just work hard."
