Welcome to Inconvenient Honesty! Congratulations on investing time and energy into yourself and congratulations on leveling up your communication skills. We've got a jam packed course for you here today so strap in and get cozy, we've got a lot to cover!
In this section, we start with a new perspective on approaching conversations: Saying the unsaid and practicing self-awareness. In this section you'll learn what we mean when say "Desired Intention" and "Undesired Impact" and most importantly, why knowing these things are the key to creating connection instead of conflict when it comes to difficult conversation.
So now we know what we're supposed to say but that's only half the battle. Now it's time to learn some tricks for how to deliver information in a way that is not just authentic but effective.
As we wrap up we close with a couple key reminders as well as introduce the "3 A's of Authenticity". Keeping these tools in mind all but guarantees your next difficult conversation will be a success.
In this quick breakout session, one of the students provides an example of why and how to simplify your communication as well as getting real time feedback on the difference that a little bit of vulnerability makes.
In this quick demo, we take a deeper dive into just why using "I" statements is so powerful and how it disarms potential arguments into connected conversations.
We need to talk.
I've coached thousands of people through some of the most difficult moments of their lives and time and time again one thing remains crystal clear...
The quality of our lives depend on the quality of our relationships
And I know that's not super surprising, but here's the catch:
The quality of our relationships depend on the amount of difficult conversations we are willing to have.
From the board room to the bedroom, communication is the single most defining factor of authentic success.
And yet, it's not always as simple as "just say it". We need tools and practice for knowing exactly what we're trying to say, building the courage to say it, and delivering it in a way that doesn't turn people away, but brings them closer.
If you're looking to build better relationships and navigate sticky conversations, join me for a communications workshop where I'll teach you an innovative framework for how to move through difficult conversations with clarity, courage, and connection.
