Heart-to-Heart Talks: Navigating Tough Conversations by Speaking from the Heart

Heart-to-Heart Talks: Navigating Tough Conversations by Speaking from the Heart. A one-session family-focused Compassionate Listening Workshop on courageous conversation. Facilitated by Amalia Phillips and Camille Dickerson-Lemieux.

January 18, 10 am - 12:30 pm PST/1 p.m. - 3:30 p.m. EST

Family relationships can be complex and challenging, but they're also one of the most important parts of our lives. That's why we're excited to invite you to Heart-to-Heart Talks: Navigating Tough Conversations by Speaking from the Heart.

In this one-session engaging workshop, we will explore Courageous Communication.

In life, facing arguments, disagreements, and tough conversations are inevitable. Speaking up isn't always simple, particularly when we are activated and/or believe our thoughts have been overlooked or stifled. Finding the appropriate words to convey our emotions can be difficult, all while being mindful of the other person's response. It requires that we align with our core values so that we can express what we want with clarity and compassion - both for ourselves and for the person we are speaking to.

Join us to discover effective ways of communicating that prevent defensiveness and encourage open dialogue. Be a part of our community where you can receive guidance in a nurturing and safe environment. Here, you'll learn how to approach challenging discussions, manage them constructively, and even recover from missteps.

Workshop Highlights:

Ø   Develop empathetic listening as well as speaking skills to strengthen family bonds.

Ø  Cultivate a safe and open space for heartfelt conversations.

Ø   Enhance communication and resolve conflicts with compassion.

Ø   Gain insights into reflective listening and compassionate responses.
