About this listen

Navigate those tough conversations with the people in your life.

Do you practice avoidance when it comes to having difficult conversations? Do you hide under the guise of trying to “keep the peace,” simply because you don’t know how to express yourself? Do you become defensive when challenged by someone whose opinions, values, and beliefs differ from yours? Do you feel powerless and that you don’t have the right to express your opinions?

No matter what, situations will arise where people will cross your boundaries, break their commitments, or exhibit plain rudeness towards you. In these moments it is crucial that you step up, speak up, address the behavior, and navigate those difficult conversations with honesty, confidence, and understanding. This approach helps prevent the accumulation of anger, resentment, and bitterness in your relationships.

Using this comprehensive guide, you can now navigate difficult conversations with transparency, confidence, and empathy while fostering a respectful relationship with others.

A State of P.L.A.Y.S. is organized using the acronym P.LA.Y.S and provides several tools and resources that can help you Prepare, Listen, Address, Yield, and stay Safe when it comes to having those difficult conversations. A State of P.L.A.Y.S also recognizes when conversations are unsafe and gives you the tools to assess your emotional safety to determine when it's best to stop communication and try a different safer approach. Knowing how to address differences respectfully and safely with another person is perhaps the single most important skill we can develop as human beings.

If you want to strengthen your communication skills and navigate those tough conversations with confidence, empathy, transparency, and respect, then A State of P.L.A.Y.S is for you. Get this audio and listen NOW!
