It's time for a conversation revival!Conversation is getting harder.
We're feeling more isolated. Loneliness is becoming an epidemic. The
Six Conversations: Pathways to Connecting Again in an Age of Isolation
and Incivility reflects one of the deepest passions of Dr. Heather
Holleman's heart: to connect people in loving community. Professor
Holleman often fields questions like:How can I foster meaningful
connection with others? Why doesn't anyone ever ask meaningful
questions? If my personal happiness depends upon having warm
relationships-like all the research shows-how can I become a better
conversationalist and create connection? Can you relate? Are you longing
for loving, meaningful, and joyful conversations? For practical skills
to connect with others? Heather invites us to reimagine better
conversations. Her work demonstrates how we can develop authentic
community by changing our relational mindsets to become more curious, to
believe the best about others, to express concern about their lives, and
to share our own. Heather shows us how to embrace the Four Mindsets of a
Loving Conversation and the Three Fresh Goals for Conversation. Using
the latest research, she shares the foundational training necessary for
engaging in truly loving conversations. Readers will be equipped with
effective questions, self-assessments, and action steps to immediately
implement in any situation-both personally and professionally.If you
desire deeper relationships with your spouse, dating partner, children,
friends, in-laws, grandchildren, coworkers, clients, students, people in
your neighborhood-or all the above-then read this book and grow in the
art of The Six Conversations!
