Talking at or talking with
There is a big difference in impact between talking at someone and talking with someone.
When we talk at someone, we diminish connection and can easily bring up their resistance.
When we talk with someone, we deepen the connection and bring down their resistance.
Notice how these two phrases impact you: 1) I want you to hear this. 2) It is important for us to understand this.
Which of these two phrases is more likely to create the result that we want?
Much Love,
