Many of us find dealing with and resolving conflict difficult or are unsure how to approach the situation. In this episode we go through 4 strategies to resolve conflict in a Selfirst way.

In this episode, we cover…

  • How there are 3 strategies (plus a bonus one) to resolve conflict
  • Why we can unintentionally compromise or impact another person’s needs, especially those we have close relationships with
  • A reminder than when our needs are well met, we are more resourced to deal with any conflict that comes up
  • What coping really is and how to do it proactively
  • How life events impact us more when we are not resourced
  • How to re-resource yourself during conflict
  • What closing is and how to use it to support the resolution of a conflict
  • How to avoid using closing as an avoidance strategy
  • Why closing needs to be followed by co-creating or completing
  • How this relates to avoidant and anxious attachment styles 
  • Why communication and accountability are so important if you choose to go through closing during a conflict
  • The difference between being ‘nice’ and being ‘kind’ during conflict
  • How unresolved conflict can come up later
  • How to reconnect and co-create
  • How co-creating is a tool that takes into consideration the needs of the people in the conflict and the needs of the relationship
  • How co-creating eliminates the need for defensiveness
  • How another strategy is completing the relationship and why it’s sometimes necessary
  • How completing might not feel good but staying in a relationship that is not based on mutual respect and growth might make us feel worse
