EP113 What We Learned - and Didn’t - About Negotiating.
Welcome to episode 113 where we explore how our childhoods helped to shape our ability to negotiate or not, via how they managed conflict themselves, as well as how they tried to teach us to do so.
In this episode we talk about how your family, your first friends and your community both taught you and modeled for you how to handle conflict, how to ask for what you needed, and how to problem-solve. Since families can struggle to have these skills much less pass them along, many adults have ongoing issues in their own relationships that they don’t know how to resolve.
Key Elements:
“Not everything that is faced
can be changed.
But nothing can be changed
until it is faced.”
– James Baldwin
