In This Interview, Alex Jamieson and Bob Gower and I discuss Conversations for Radical Alignment and…

Their book, Radical Alignment: How to Have Game-Changing Conversations That Will Transform Your Business and Your Life

How their son’s diagnosis of dyslexia and ADHD got them both involved in positive psychology

That we actually calm our nervous system when we speak our concerns out loud

How helpful it can be to get specific about our fears

The fact that we need to feel good physically to talk about important things

The tools that helped them process emotions better

The conversation formula of Intentions, Concerns, Boundaries, and Dreams

Why, in a relationship, you should absolutely go to bed angry

That the point of their method is to make more of the relationship iceberg visible

The importance of inviting someone to a conversation (without saying “We need to talk”)

Their suggestion to “Listen with compassion and curiosity and speak with courage and vulnerability.”
