For many years in my hair dressing chair, I have been told people wish they could have me in their pocket when they need to have a hard conversation.   Tune in today as I chat about some useful ways to express your feelings clearly and concisely, using language and tone to pave a way forward, rather than pointing fingers and laying blame.   In this episode we cover: Having hard conversations and them coming from a good place How word dumping is shaped in childhood and can play out as an adult Fear and shaming conversations can push people apart Thinking about the timing of when you have conversations Reading body language to check in with timing When to choose growth How reflection is a curious way to observe ourselves Giving yourself permission to be yourself Choosing when to bring out your inner warrior Where your values are at will determine what you need to defend Taking out blame and judgment in your conversations.   Resources and links mentioned in this episode: Show notes: https://www.soulcarebendigo.com.au/podcast  Soul Care Bendigo website: https://www.soulcarebendigo.com.au Soul Care Bendigo Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/soulcarebendigo/ Soul Care Bendigo Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100090347516510 Email: soulcarebendigo@gmail.com   If you enjoyed this episode, SUBSCRIBE or FOLLOW.
