How To Talk To A Man

Usually, I try to edit these episodes down to 15 minutes or so. But, once Newt and I got rolling, there was so much good information that I decided to leave it all in, and let the episode run a little long.

Since 2007, Newt Bailey has been leading workshops and retreats, coaching individuals and groups, and mediating conflict in both public and organizational settings, in the USA and Europe.

In his work, he shares the essential core of Nonviolent Communication (NVC) and teaches the principles of NVC in a way that frees students from specialized language. His approach allows "connected communication" to grow in small, quickly assimilated steps.

His passion is to help people connect and find the potential for mutually satisfying change that lies within conflict. “I am convinced that the changes we want to see in our lives, our communities and our world begin with changes in how we think and communicate.”

Please visit his website, CommunicationDojo.com. Scroll down and you’ll find links to his upcoming workshops, including Communication In Intimate Relationships; Anger, Judgment and Self-Connection; as well as drop-in workshops and practice sessions.

This episode is a bit different. In fact, it’s an experiment.

Rori Raye (my wife) and I decided to try something new - where we set up the mic and start recording - with no planning.

Instead, the goal is to capture us talking about our decades-long marriage - what’s worked and what hasn’t worked - as we navigate the inevitable challenges that couples face.

We’ve both spent years coaching others, so how do those tools and techniques play out in our own home? That’s what we want to explore.

So this is episode one.

There is more to come.

Jeffrey (and Rori)

Rori Raye is best known as the author of Have The Relationship You Want and creator of The Modern Siren.

She is also my wife, and many of the things we talk about here, we've actually test-run in our marriage. This episode was initially meant to be a "practice" episode for my podcast. After listening to it, I felt we covered some great material, and Rori offers some valuable perspectives. We will do other episodes as well, and here is the first one.

Though she's developed hundreds of specific Tools that've helped thousands of women succeed in love quickly and nearly effortlessly, and now personally trains coaches worldwide to help women one-to-one by using her unique, theatrical and experiential Rori Raye Method of Coaching, Rori always says that her biggest credential is her personal story.

How she took herself from unhappy "crumb taker" to hugely happy "Modern Siren" with a fabulous, life-long marriage to a great man...if she could do it, you can do it...no matter how different things seem out there now, it's all really still the same...

Benson Scott is a restorative justice practitioner, specializing in mediation and education. One of my earliest memories of Benson is watching him mediate for a couple, in a workshop, and I was blown away by how skilled he was in bringing clarity and connection to both participants. In this episode, he shares with us what he's learned after years of practice, about connection in a relationship.

Benson works with couples and families, and he is involved in creating a restorative justice family retreat, scheduled for July 2022.

Naomie Thompson is a dating and relationship coach living on the south coast of England.

Naomie and I talk about the power of connecting with your own vulnerability and what that looks like in your relationship. And we explore this whole idea of "holding space" - what that really means.

In her coaching practise Naomie guides you to be loved and cherished through a process of learning what you’re doing that’s keeping love away, uncovering the hidden beliefs you have (that sabotage love or have you constantly attracting the wrong partners) and bringing you back to your soft, magnetic feminine self, your true nature.

She helps women attract deep connected love by being more themselves than they’ve ever dared to be.

Something a masculine energy man craves more than anything in a partner is a woman in her warm feminine energy, who can express her vulnerable feelings, receive what he gives her and trust him to lead the relationship.

If that feels impossible right now, Naomie has the skill, heart and compassion to get you there.

You can connect with Naomie at NaomieThompson.com.
