Manage episode 454616729 series 3105660
In this episode, I dive into a topic that resonates deeply, especially as we approach the holiday season—when many of us find ourselves in close quarters with family members we may not always see eye to eye with. The stress and chaos of the holidays can often exacerbate tensions, leading to conflicts that leave us feeling drained and frustrated.
Throughout the episode, I encourage listeners to consider their energy in conversations, especially during disagreements. I discuss how our words and thoughts can create a toxic cycle of conflict, likening it to "spewing poison" that ultimately harms ourselves. I share insights from my work with clients, highlighting the importance of recognizing when we are investing energy into trying to change someone who may not be open to it.
Our language has the power to either escalate or de-escalate a situation. I provide practical examples of how to shift our language to promote peace and connection, emphasizing that it’s okay to disagree and that we don’t always have to be on the same page.
