If you found yourself in a situation with a violent attacker, would you know what to do? While it\u2019s easy to think you\u2019d instinctively\xa0make the right decision, the truth is, if you haven\u2019t been formulating\xa0and practicing a plan ahead of time, you\u2019ll likely make the wrong, and possibly deadly, choice.\n\nMy guest today has spent over two decades teaching people how to deal with threats, and even more importantly, how to avoid them in the first place. His name is\xa0Dr. Gav Schneider and he\u2019s an expert in personal risk management and security and the author of\xa0Can I See your Hands: A Guide To Situational Awareness, Personal Risk Management, Resilience and Security.\xa0Today on the show, Gav shares the biggest mistake people make when it comes to their personal safety and why understanding that criminals have an advantage is foundational in keeping you and your family safe. He then walks us through how to develop situational awareness so that we can avoid problems before they occur, why it\u2019s important to have multiple plans of action for when an attack happens, and why realistic training is crucial in being ready to defend yourself.\n\nGet the show notes at aom.is/caniseeyourhands.
