Episode notes
Use Small Practices To Become Present
- Practise short grounding exercises (breath, anchor image) to become present before or during talks.
- Use what works for you rather than chasing a guru ideal; presence is a practiced state.
Ask With Genuine Curiosity
- Stay genuinely curious and assume you don't already understand the other's perspective.
- Curiosity helps humanise opponents and can reduce attitude extremity over time.
Avoid Immediate 'Me Too' Responses
- Sharing a similar experience too early can overshadow the speaker and reduce the quality of empathy.
- Hold back your story until the speaker feels fully heard.
