The Heart of Asking
Emotional & practical preparation for life's toughest conversations
It’s time to have the talk
(you know the one)
You already work more than anyone else on your team and you’re nearing burnout. When your boss asks you to take on yet another project, you instinctively reply, “sure, no problem!”
Your sex life is feeling blah, but you’re scared you’ll hurt your partner’s feelings if you bring it up. Instead, you keep your thoughts to yourself and hope things will magically get better.
When you go home for the holidays, you suddenly feel like a little kid again. Passive-aggressive comments get thrown around and you spend the whole ride home thinking of all the things you wish you’d said.
These conversations are hard for a reason: they force you to talk about taboo topics; you’re scared to hurt other people’s feelings; you don’t want to rock the boat or sound pushy. No wonder you’re avoiding them! And yet, these are the conversations that foster real trust and connection.
Introducing, The Heart of Asking: a live small-group coaching program to help you say what you mean, without being mean.
