EP111 Negotiating in Relationships: The Magic of Collaboration

Welcome to episode 111 where we spell out how we will be talking about a very important part of relationships: learning how to negotiate to solve problems and forge a strong friendship.

In this episode we introduce the topic we will focusing on all month – healthy negotiating needs in our relationships.  We outline what gets in the way, how we may have never learned how to do it, and why it’s so important to practice it with those we care about.  Negotiating embodies assertiveness, self-confidence, boundaries and owning our choices. I think it’s the best way to problem solve and keep trust alive in our relationships.

 

Key Elements:

• Identify why we may struggle to negotiate in loving ways.
• Look at important components of being able to ask for what you need.
• Assess how well you know how to negotiate, and what might be difficult.
