Understanding Me, So I Can Understand You

05/06/2020

'Understanding me, so I can understand you.'

Zoom workshops, to help relationshsips be real and respectful.
Would you like to learn how to have better communication with friends and family, and even neighbours and work mates.

Conversations where people really listen to you, really hear you.
Arguments that end with mutual respect and cooperation, no shouting or storming out.
Listening in a way that you really understand what’s going on for others, even if you disagree with them.

I believe we’re designed to live together, work together, supporting, inspiring, enjoying each other. I frequently find that difficult, nearly impossible on occasions. So, what’s going on? How come? Can we get to respect and cooperation?

In ‘Understanding me, so I can understand you.’ we’ll unpack and practice how to make living and working together a pleasure instead of a pain.

Please let me know if you’d like any more information about ‘Understanding me, so I can understand you.’
