The Amanda Bucci Show (Formerly Bucci Radio)

If you’ve ever struggled to have or start a difficult conversation in a friendship, relationship, or work environment, this episode is for you. In this episode, I give some insight on why we avoid having hard conversations, the consequences of avoiding hard conversations, and tips on my secret sauce on ways to have difficult conversations with compassion and candor.

Today I'm digging deep into human behavior. I'm constantly learning how to facilitate coaching experiences in a more powerful way and share more content that's in alignment with that kind of methodology.

In this episode, I'm sharing the 5 Realms of Consciousness and how they relate to business.

Something I value and believe to be the key to success is integrating relational intelligence into our work and understanding how humans work. Understanding how connection and conversation really happens is one of the foundational tools to grow your business. Why? Because we are working with people, and the faster we can connect to them, the deeper we can connect to them, and the easier it is for our business to work and for us to get clients.
