Conversations from the Heart

# 37 - When Venting Is Valuable

Yvette Erasmus Season 1 Episode 37

"Venting" often gets a bad rap.

Even though many people see "venting" as an inherently negative thing, knowing how to vent effectively can actually be an effective way of reclaiming and reconnecting with yourself.  

Sometimes, venting is just a pathway to something deeper, and we understand it as a step on our awareness journey.

Other times, we just want to process our experiences out loud with someone who will listen.

Either way, learning how to vent effectively is actually a critical skill to learn so that we can process our experiences in healthy ways without harming others along the way.

In this week's episode, we focus on two main themes: 

  • 4:29:  How to apply NVC when there is little trust in the relationship
  • 21:47:  How to vent in constructive and life-affirming ways
