Listen

Description

Today we are talking about communication styles. Often, we are not aware of the communication style we are using. Communication style matters because it impacts the quality of our relationships. If we want others to listen to us, we first must be willing to listen to ourselves. 

The communication styles discussed in this episode are:

* The controller - "Do it or else." Feels threatening.

* The pleaser -  "Do it okay." Feels confusing.

*The passive-aggressive flip-flop - starts off as the pleaser and turns into the controller when needs are not met.

* The leader - "Just do it"  The voice of no doubt.
