My Story

Twelve years ago, I was at the end of my tether. I felt trapped in my life, overwhelmed, and resentful. I hated my job, resented my husband, and was frustrated with my kids. I felt confined by family relationships and conflict, with nowhere to turn.

Then I attended a two-day workshop in Nonviolent Communication (NVC), also known as Compassionate Communication. As I sat and cried, I realised I had found what I had been missing: Connection. I was disconnected from myself, focused solely on what I wasn't getting in life.

With the four steps outlined in this free guide, I began to change the way I related to others and, most importantly, to myself. I learned to stop blaming, ask clearly for what I needed, stand up for myself, and cultivate nourishing relationships. Conversation by conversation, my relationships began to change. Some fell away, while others transformed.

Today, I live a fulfilling life with nourishing relationships and work that I love. Challenges still come, but I have the tools and skills to tackle tough times and see things through.

It might seem a little farfetched that one Toolkit has the power to transform your life and relationships, especially if you’re feeling really stuck and have been struggling for a while. But it worked for me and I'm now dedicated to making this approach even easier for others to apply and use.

The four steps in this guide are powerful. They take practice, but they work. My life has transformed beyond anything I could have imagined.

This communication model is used worldwide by people from all backgrounds. It's useful at work, at home, in schools, with children, and even for mediation and conflict resolution.

It's a simple process that just takes practice. This guide can get you started on the path to a more compassionate and fulfilling life.
