Description

Join this quarterly call to deepen your nonviolent communication (NVC) practice!

On the second Wednesday at the start of each quarter we deep dive into discernment skills, explore roleplay practice with scenarios of tension alive in your life, discuss the challenges we face embodying the language of NVC, and more!

 

FOCUS FOR THIRD QUARTER:

Wednesday, July 8th @ 4:30pm PT / 5: 30pm MT / 6:30pm CT / 7:30pm ET

Navigating Triggers in Written Communication

Explore how you can cultivate not only fortitude and resilience for engaging on social media but how you may bring empathy to all your written interactions.

Many of us are navigating grief, frustration, and fatigue in an increasingly polarized digital landscape. We long for meaningful connection and compassionate dialogue, even when the internet feels like a battleground.

We are overwhelmed. Caught between wanting to speak up and protect our mental health when we witness and/or experience harm. We are longing for meaningful connection and transformation, but also see the limits of our capacity and want to protect our fragile peace.

In this session, we’ll practice what it means to show up with authenticity, curiosity, and care… without abandoning ourselves to “empathy vampires” or taking the bait from trolls and bots.

Who this session is for:

  • if you’ve ever engaged with activating written communication like texts and emails 
  • if you’ve ever felt drained by online conversations or unsure how to maintain your boundaries while still showing up with empathy
  • if you’ve ever said “there’s no point going online” or “why try connecting on social media, you aren’t changing minds there” and need some help checking your ableism in that belief

What to expect:

You’ll gain tools to navigate social media and written communication with confidence, responding from a grounded place rather than reacting from stress, fear, and frustration.

We’ll use real examples (this isn’t just theory!) and interactive exercises to help you embody these practices, offering guidance on how to hold empathy and curiosity for yourself and others.

You can care deeply, show up online with integrity, and protect your mental health.

 

 

If there is specific area of focus you would like to niche down on for an upcoming quarter, please submit your idea via email to: info@jengergen.com.

NVC experience encouraged: while those new to NVC will still enjoy these sessions, the practice will be most impactful for those already on their NVC journey.
