Conversations from the Heart
#39 - A Roadmap for Discussing Differences
These days, it can be so difficult to discuss politics and religion.
Often, people tell me they just avoid those conversations. And honestly, I get it.
However, if we're invested in co-creating a relationship with someone we care about, exploring places where we hold different opinions and beliefs can be exactly the place where we build intimacy.
Looking for a roadmap on how to have conversations around different beliefs? Check this episode out!
We'll discuss:
- 1:17 I'm concerned about my fiancé's political views
- 6:09 A roadmap for connection: begin with observations
- 12:01 Making our invisible lines visible for others
- 22:50 Ways to involve kids in the conversation about their behavior
- 26:22 A tip for helping a child choose healthy strategies
- 39:06 When is it a boundary and when is it coercion?
- 37:26 Prioritizing the relationship above the behavior
- 41:23 What can I do when I'm frozen in an active power struggle?
- 54:13 What about adults who throw tantrums like children?
This episode references two of Yvette's best-selling courses: The Boundaries Masterclass and The Parenting Masterclass. Check them out for more helpful tips!
