Living Connected - NVC
Kady, Eric, Kyle and Guests are here to talk about how Nonviolent Communication (NVC) can be implemented into your daily lives. NVC is a communication modality developed by Marshall Rosenberg. It focuses on compassion, empathy, observations, feelings, needs & requests in order to connect with others on a deeper level. Marshall has used NVC in high intensity conflicts over seas and he talks about how powerful it is to use.
We will discuss topics all across the board and how NVC can be used in various situations. I hope we can engage you in our practice and I hope you will want to learn and spread the love of NVC like we do. There isn't a way to upload the feelings and needs chart yet. If you would like one in a PDF file please email and ask us for it and we will send one your way. If you would like to get ahold of us with any questions, scenarios or topic ideas, email us at:

Living Connected - NVC
Flow of Feelings with Bryn Hazel
I am so thrilled to have Bryn on my podcast again. The last time she was on was back in Oct. of 2020 episode 17. Bryn has been practicing NVC over 22 years and has been my mentor, empathy buddy and teacher since I started NVC in 2018. I am honored & it’s a gift to have Bryn in my life for 5 years, knowing you Bryn has changed me in a beautiful way. Your accompaniment during hard times and happy continues to mean so much to my heart.
Today we are talking about the flow of feelings and how our feelings can change depending on the stories we have going on in our mind. The stories we tell ourselves can affect how our feelings flow between one another. Our perception or judgements of self or others can impact our current human experiences and disrupt the flow of the true feelings, needs and connection. Bryn shares a great story by Marshall that explains this concept so well. We can shift our feelings when our judgments shift about ourselves or others. Our reality of how we feel is one way through the lens of stories or judgments and then when our stories change our feelings & reality shifts and our reality becomes different. My younger self has a story that “I am doing something wrong, I’m gonna get in trouble.” My perception comes from that place of defensiveness and those feelings are how I respond to my human experience or situation. If I didn’t have this story in my head, my heart would be in a more curious & open place and than my feelings about the present moment would be different.
I had a listener reach out to me from Canada, his name is Erich. He had asked me if I had any idea where we can find Marshall Rosenbergs original Audio tapes or CDs of his workshops. Erich did some extensive research and has come up with a bunch of resources for everyone that I am going to provide in the description below. This really met my needs for community, sharing, contribution, support & thoughtfulness & care. I want to bring NVC related stuff to our Living connected community and this helps so much. Thank you Erich for this contribution of effort and time you put into this. We all appreciate you tremendously.
