Musings with Me @ Butterfly Effect

Windows of Conversation Episode - Episode 20

October 24, 2023 Lisa Barnard Season 2 Episode 20

In this episode I muse over the topic of:  How we communicate through 'metaphorical windows', or through the values, beliefs and experiences of our lives and how these impact our conversations.
 
 When we change our inner world, we change our outer world, not only  for ourselves, but for those around us too. The Mental, Physical & Emotional parts of ourselves affect each other,  and impact how we engage with the world.  
 
 I work as a Mindset & Well-Being Coach, for Parents, Teens & In-betweens - Supporting Parents, Teens & Families to Improve Communication, Find Purpose, & Develop Leadership skills.

Parenting, Adulting and Teenagering are not always an easy journey, and we don't get  manuals to explain how to do them 'right'.   We might feel anxious about the future & the decisions we need to be making, what sort of role-model we are for our kids, or how our own well-being is affecting our family - Pouring from an empty cup, serves no-one. 

Communication, Purpose and Leadership are all areas of life in their own right. And we may feel we have strengths or weaknesses in them, depending on what we have learned over our lifetime. However, sometimes, what we have learned about them are not conducive to our own or others well-being. When clear and effective communication is woven into our family structure, we can develop leadership skills and cultivate a space for a shared sense of purpose.
 
 In these podcasts you will find conversations and practical techniques & tools that are short and easy to include in your day, as well as ideas to consider, that allow you to shift your view of the world.
