Uncommon Courage

How do we land a message with someone not ready to hear it?

One of the challenges for anyone trying to raise awareness of the climate emergency or the myriad social issues facing humanity is, how do you share this knowledge with people not ready to listen to it? And people are not ready to hear it for many reasons. It’s hard and depressing, it will force them to change everything, the fear of eco-anxiety is strong, facing it shatters a beautiful reality, and so much more. It’s not an easy challenge to overcome. 

But if we have any chance of waking the world up to the multiple crisis’s we face, we have to ensure our communication skills are so good, we can break through and gain attention. To help me understand the psychology of communication, I reached out to my friend, Dr. Frank Hagenow CSP. A psychologist, author and professional speaker, Frank understands this better than anyone I know. I hope his ideas help you in further finetuning your communication to help you deliver your message. Communication is such a critical skill right now. I’ll invite more experts on to help with this critical pillar in the climate fight. 

Please note, we had some issues with Frank’s audio, which could be lessened but not fixed. The bird noise is definitely me. I have a ‘singer’ that visits every day. It’s lovely.
