E77: IYCS-Audio Flash Files #18 "When Family Gatherings Get Heated, Drop Ice to Make a Chat Simmer"

18th InvisiYouth Chat Sessions: Audio Flash Files gives you a boost of life advice and perspectives that’ll provide empowering tools you can practically incorporate into your life for more success and joy.

We’re focusing on the relationship and communication within the family gatherings. Since a lot of our lives deal with the process of going to family gatherings of all sizes, it can be super important to make sure that we have the communication tools to be successful in these settings and feel the most confident. 

Holiday season is upon us, and with that comes something that some of us enjoy and others do not…the family gatherings. We are surrounded by family and friends from all levels of closeness and involvement in our daily lives at these gatherings, so it can be overwhelming how we are trying to navigate catching up with keeping our boundaries when conversations can become invasive.

This podcast gives our steps on how to navigate when you need to redirect conversations but maintain that respect and inner comfort. Gain the steps of implementing our Ice-to-Simmer Chat Syndrome in your next family gathering when the conversation focuses on parts of your chronic illness/disability that are too personal, nosy or invasive for your boundaries. You will gain the ability, with your own conversational style as the focal point, to develop your own verbal “ice” cues and discover how redirection in conversations, when done correctly, can simmer any conversation or emotional heat to make it more comfortable and enjoyable for all involved. Plus, founder Dominique drops the details about a Thanksgiving in her past when the extended relatives were asking way too many questions about her chronic illness issues and how she used some metaphorical ice conversation cues about KTape to redirect and allow for both her comfort and social ease to build into the family gathering.

 Let's get talking and make your communicate style within those family gatherings optimal for success and comfortability so there’s a sense of ease, success, joy, and always add your type of chatting style to the forefront so productivity thrives along with your health’s wellbeing!
