Hear Me Out: The Secret to Giving and Receiving Hard Truths Without Defensiveness
"The degree to which a person can grow is directly proportional to the amount of truth they can accept about themselves without running away." — Leland Val Van de Wall
We all encounter challenging conversations—whether it’s a boss rejecting our idea, a neighbor pushing their political beliefs, a colleague misinterpreting our request, or a family member overstepping boundaries. How we respond in these moments can make the difference between frustration and forward movement.
In this interactive workshop, you’ll learn practical strategies to stay grounded, navigate tough conversations with confidence, and turn difficult messages into opportunities for connection and influence. By shifting your perspective and response, you can create better outcomes and get more of what you want—without unnecessary conflict.
Join us to build skills that will transform how you receive and respond to tough messages in work, relationships, and everyday life.
