“Connected Conversation Process” – instructional video (13 mins)

 

Here Ali Miller (www.alimillermft.com) and I portray a couple, Debbie and Jason, who have a mildly contentious conversation. They then try using the “Connected Conversation Process" (CCP), the foundational process of the Communication Dojo, to navigate through their conflict with greater mutual understanding and connection.  We're portraying Debbie and Jason as being new to this work. They have lots of history of arguing in ways that are not very effective! Our hope is to show that they can make some headway immediately, even with just a little knowledge of the CCP.      

“Connected Conversation Process” - a quick look (2 mins)

​

Newt Bailey and Ali Miller (www.alimillermft.com) play “Jason” and “Debbie” getting into a little conflict. Watch for a quick glimpse at how the “Connected Conversation Process” from the Communication Dojo can turn conflict into connection.

“Connected Conversation Process” runs into conflict (12 mins)

​

In this video we see our heroes Debbie and Jason taking on a tricky conversation in their relationship, using the Connected Conversation Process. See what happens when they start getting into conflict, and how they get back out of it.

 

Pause the action at any moment to ask yourself "What would I say now if I were Jason, or Debbie, in order to take the conversation in the direction of greater connection.

 

Try watching with your focus only on the characters, then watch again sharing your attention between the characters and the written comments on the screen.

Self-Isolating Couple use Nonviolent Communication (NVC) (12 minute version)

Self-isolation and the fear and other emotions stirred up by the pandemic is putting a strain on couples, families, and many others who are living under the same roof. Connected Communication, aka Nonviolent Communication (NVC), is more valuable than ever. In this video (a 12 minute version of the longer original video) we show the journey from conflict to connection using "self-connection" and "connected conversation." You don't have to get stuck in out-dated and ineffective ways of dealing with the stress and conflict!
