Supercommunicators : how to unlock the secret language of connection / by Duhigg, Charles,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.From the bestselling author of 'The Power of Habit', a fascinating exploration of what makes conversations work, and how we can all learn to be supercommunicators at work and in life. We all know people who seem capable of connecting with almost anyone. They're the ones we love talking to, who we turn to for advice, who hear what we are trying to say and make us feel seen. Charles Duhigg argues that supercommunicators understand that whenever we speak, we're actually participating in one of three conversations: practical, emotional, and social. If you don't know what kind of conversation you're having, connection is hard. With his trademark clarity and storytelling, Duhigg shows readers how to recognize these three conversations-and teaches us the skills we need to navigate them more successfully. Communication is a superpower. By bringing readers into jury deliberations and fraught CIA recruitments, into Netflix's company-wide conversations about equity and the writers' room of 'The Big Bang Theory', Duhigg uncovers why some people are able to make themselves heard-and to hear others-so clearly. We learn how to identify and leverage the hidden layers that lurk beneath every conversation. In the end, we learn a simple but powerful lesson: with the right tools, we can connect with anyone.

Liberated love : release codependent patterns and create the love you desire / by Groves, Mark,1979-author.; McBeath, Kylie,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."We all desire great love. Yet, there seems to be a lot in the way when it comes to cultivating a relationship we crave. Why is that? It's time for a new template -- one rooted in choice, truth, safety, and respect. To get us there, Mark Groves and Kylie McBeath, champions of positive philosophy, provide us a roadmap, one they walked themselves, to step out of protection mode and into connection mode. Groves and McBeath's work -- through their Create the Love seminars, workbooks, and consultation programs -- have educated a new generation of relationship seekers on the best ways to practice and cultivate love. In Liberated Love, you'll explore your original relationship blueprint and learn how it informs your current relationships (spoiler alert: it's often a pretty direct line), and discover how limitation can be the key to finding freedom and experiencing full, fully-realized love with another person. Equipped with real-life situations and stories, exercises, rituals, and tools that lead to productive self-examination, Groves and McBeath illuminate how to be aware of our most instinctual defenses, survival strategies, and coping mechanisms, how to have conversations about relationships without turning them into "relationship conversations," and how to date in a way that protects your heart as you open it up to new possibilities. In these pages, in a format you'll want to turn to again and again, you'll learn how to begin and maintain relationships that allow true self-expression -- to feel safe and to feel real, involving, sustaining love"--

What are you going through / by Nunez, Sigrid,author.;
Includes bibliographical references."The New York Times-bestselling, National Book Award-winning author of The Friend brings her singular voice to a story about the meaning of life and death, and the value of companionship. A woman describes a series of encounters she has with various people in the ordinary course of her life: an ex she runs into by chance at a public forum, an Airbnb owner unsure how to interact with her guests, a stranger who seeks help comforting his elderly mother, a friend of her youth now hospitalized with terminal cancer. In each of these people the woman finds a common need: the urge to talk about themselves and to have an audience to their experiences. The narrator orchestrates this chorus of voices for the most part as a passive listener, until one of them makes an extraordinary request, drawing her into an intense and transformative experience of her own. In What Are You Going Through, Nunez brings wisdom, humor, and insight to a novel about human connection and the changing nature of relationships in our times. A surprising story about empathy and the unusual ways one person can help another through hardship, her book offers a moving and provocative portrait of the way we live now"--
