303 - Nonviolent Communication in Practice with Ranjitha Jeurkar
When we tell someone how we feel, we expect to feel understood, don’t we? But as Ranjitha Jeurkar will tell you - it’s often not that simple. Empathy can be a complex tapestry: there’s needs to be met, paradigms at play, forefeelings that can stir confusion, and words that can all too easily get lost, heated, or misinterpreted.
So how do we make sense of it all? How do we speak a language that we can all understand, that connects us, and makes us feel seen?
Ranjitha joins me this week to introduce us to the life-changing world of Nonviolent Communication. More than just words, this is a journey into self-discovery and empathy, and a toolkit for how to have more connected relationships in our lives.
Find out about:
- What non-violent communication (NVC) is and how to practice it
- How NVC facilitates deeper connection, empathy and psychological safety
- The misconceptions of internal feelings vs external evaluations
- The importance of language, embodiment and energy in expressing needs
- How to engage in judgement-free, meaningful, emotional dialogue
