Would you like to enhance your communication skills? Do you have a difficult conversation you are struggling with?

A crucial conversation is one where emotions are strong, stakes are high, and there are opposing opinions. It's common to struggle with this type of interaction. Part book club, part "social lab", the **Crucial Conversations Workshop** hosted by **Conscious Communication Circle** can help!

We will explore the basics of a Crucial Conversation and then practice together in the workshop.

The group facilitator is a former communications and emotional intelligence trainer and engineering technology leader with years of experience teaching Crucial Conversations to worldwide participants.

**In this interactive workshop, we will explore:**

* **Finalizing a Crucial Conversation** \- how to create commitments that stick\!
* We will review the entire Crucial Conversations model (quickly) and then delve into **mindfulness exercises**, **group practice**, and **open discussion** related to the Crucial Conversations model.

**Our group will repeatedly focus on:**

* ***The Mindfulness Connection***: This is where we go deeper. We'll discuss how simple mindfulness and meditation practices create a crucial "gap" between stimulus and response. This space is where you gain the power to choose your story, manage your emotions, and act with intention.
* ***Making Conscious Contact***: The ultimate goal is to use these communication frameworks not as a rigid scripts, but as a flashlight to illuminate our inner world. By becoming aware of this process, we can build a more conscious, effective, and authentic relationship with ourselves and others.

**What to bring:**

Just bring an open mind and a notebook! While this session is based on concepts from Crucial Conversations, owning a copy is helpful but not required to participate fully and gain valuable insights.

**Our Agenda:**

* 10:30am - 11:30am : Welcome, introductions, and an interactive review of the Crucial Conversations model covered so far followed by a brief discussion of the final phase of a Crucial Conversation: Creating final commitments that stick.
* 11:30am to 12:30pm: A mindfulness exercise led by one of our group peers followed by a facilitated group discussion and 'practice lab' where we can apply these concepts to real-world scenarios in a safe and supportive space.

Join us for our *third* meeting! It’s going to be an insightful, fun, and connecting experience designed to give you practical tools you can use immediately. We can’t wait to see you there!
