This episode we cover one of Luke's favourite concepts around communication, Marshall Rosenberg's 'Non-Violent Communication'. We discuss the ideas of communicating with other's from a place of 'feelings' and 'needs' as a way of connecting with others, based on the principle that our feelings are indications of met (or unmet) needs and that the best communication is when we are voluntarily contributing to others' well being. This is opposed to language which moves us away from people such as labelling or casting judgement. We discuss ways to better communicate in conflict and when making requests. Also how to express empathy and really being able to connect deeper with other people when we converse with them. We also discuss developing language of gratitude in particular to giving specific feedback to others.  Plenty covered in this one and lots of takeaways.   Hope you enjoy Will & Luke Purchase the book at: https://www.nonviolentcommunication.com/This specific episode can also be seen on: https://youtu.be/i7H8Tq7PV7ECheck our Youtube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1Y_SKLFpax13442jA3giaw/videosListen to us on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2R1BRcriKWcvOU1XMJQhyWListen to us on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/will-luke-discuss/id1572512365Listen to us on Google Podcasts: https://www.google.com/podcasts?feed=aHR0cHM6Ly9hbmNob3IuZm0vcy81Zjk2YTNmYy9wb2RjYXN0L3Jzcw==Also available on: Anchor, Breaker, Pocket Casts, Radio Public.
