In this one day deepening of Compassionate Communication we will explore:
- how to connect to the why of our "no" and the "yes" behind it
- how to express a no in a connecting way
- how to understand the "yes" behind someone's no
- how to generate new strategies after saying or receiving a no

This workshop is based on Nonviolent Communication, aa powerful approach developed by Marshal Rosenberg. It is open to all people having at least 10 hours of training in this approach.

How to decide how much to pay?

Here is some considerations to decide how much you wish to contribute (source: https://www.ridefreefearlessmoney.com/blog/2016/05/sliding-scale-1/)
Consider paying less on the scale if you.
– are supporting children or have other dependents
– have significant debt
– have medical expenses not covered by insurance
– receive public assistance
– have immigration-related expenses
– are an elder with limited financial support
– are an unpaid community organizer
– are a returning citizen who has been denied work due to incarceration history

Consider paying more on the scale if you:
– own the home you live in
– have investments, retirement accounts, or inherited money
– travel recreationally
– have access to family money and resources in times of need
– work part time by choice
– have a relatively high degree of earning power due to level of education (or gender and racial privilege, class background, etc.) Even if you are not currently exercising your earning power, I ask you to recognize this as a choice.

If 80$ is still a barrier, please communicate with me.
