Conversations from the Heart
Listen to live mini-coaching moments focused on helping people connect with themselves and others by speaking their truth with kindness and compassion, and listening through new filters. Get new scripts for stuck situations, hear new ways of responding to old relationship dynamics and get guidance on how to approach these situations with empathy, self-awareness, and effective communication strategies. Here, we emphasize understanding both one's own needs and the needs of others, creating safe spaces for vulnerable conversations, and finding ways to express oneself authentically while respecting others' boundaries.
Conversations from the Heart
#43 - How Can Rules be in Alignment with Nonviolence?
Having good boundaries is not the same as being violent, and enforcing rules is not coercion.
In this week's episode, we unpack a professor's desire to limit coercion and violence in her classroom and her desire to create a tight container that supports and respects participant sharing.
We consider:
- 2:52 Can mandatory attendance be in line with nonviolence?
- 10:52 How can I create a tight container nonviolently?
- 11:46 Having good boundaries is not the same as being violent.
