In this talk, Jean will help you pinpoint exactly where you are going wrong on your search for love. She will introduce how the methodologies used in social science can help.

2) ASSERTING YOURSELF: TURNING CONFRONTATIONS INTO CONVERSATIONS

(1-2 hour interactive talk)

The thought of addressing an issue, when something is bothering us, is a scary one for most people. We assume the worst will happen. Therefore, rather than talking to the person about how we feel, we continue to let it happen. The resentment inside us builds. Meanwhile, the other person, blissfully unaware, continues repeating these actions. What stops us from saying, ‘Jon, you probably don’t even realise that you are doing this, but do you know that you continually interrupt me when we are in meetings? It makes me feel like you don’t value what I am saying.’ Or telling our parents, ‘I love it when you come to visit, just not for two weeks’. What stops us from having these conversations with others? You’ll discover how to assert your needs, get what you want and still walk away as friends.

Consists of practical tips and activities on:

• The two fundamental things you need to do in order to assert yourself
• Exposing the unhelpful formula that you are currently living your life by
• The 5 practical steps on how to have a conversation
• The importance of boundaries
• Why ‘being nice’ is stopping you from being kind, loving and giving
