For those of you trained in NVC, please note that we use natural language and street giraffe when we are in conversation together. So, listen on with an open mind, a furry heart, and curious ears, or not.
During this week's episode of Courageous Conversations, we talk about what Karen calls the tyranny of inclusion. When we are using the word inclusion, is there judgment, blame or demand energy behind it? We talk about how to assess what is really being asked for in moments where the word inclusion is used. Is there a need for acceptance, belonging, or some other need that is not met at the moment, and how do we get to that point of awareness? If after listening, you find yourself longing for some connection or wanting to hear more, you can connect with us via the message button at the top and Karen has opportunities for you to explore NVC at your own pace on her site, www.karenstarz.com.
