I think we all agree that good communication is key to a healthy and loving relationship. As we exit a marriage lack of communication is usually one of the factors that contributed to the end whether it was lack of or unhealthy communication patterns.

In my work as I coach women going through separation and divorce pretty close to 100% of them will tell me that poor communication or lack of contributed to their divorce and that good communication skills are a must in a new relationship.

And I get and agree. But there is something many don't look at or think about and that's their own communication style. We all have a default where we go when triggered or if we feel under attack or somehow unsafe in sharing how we feel. Do you become avoidant, argumentative, loud, quiet..? 

The only thing you can control is your communication. What you choose to say and how you choose to respond to the other. You can't control anything they say or do. Those choices lie with them. 

Are you communicating in a way that creates safe space for the other person to share what is in their heart? For them to learn how to communicate effectively with you and vice versa?

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

And I would like to invite you to join our coaching call and conversation about all of this inside the Rising Free membership. Every week we meet to discuss various topics related to separation and divorce and the healing that needs to happen. We talk about overcoming abuse, codependency, co-parenting and so much more. In March I will be running a call on how to communicate effectively, compassionately and lovingly. And I would love for you to join this and the other calls. The link to join Rising Free is below. And when you join, not only will you enjoy the calls, but also the community of supportive women who will become your friends. As you are listening to this episode and reading these notes I will be packing for a retreat I am running in Costa Rica. Many of my Rising Free members are joining me there and I can't wait for us all to finally be in person with each other. And I know they are very excited as well. 

Take this step for yourself, your healing and your future. Join Rising Free to receive coaching, support, sisterhood and healing. I'll see you in March on our calls.
