A therapist explains why communication matters and introduces an ongoing series teaching relational, emotional, and persuasive communication skills through concepts, stories, and practical techniques like disarming others, nonverbal cues, and rapport-building.
Why is communication so important? Well, it's at the heart of everything we do, every interaction, whether it's personal or professional, we're never really taught how to effectively communicate. And when you can master communication, it can really change your life. As a therapist, communication is at the core of what I do. It's interesting because I have this unique set of skills and experiences as a therapist that lends well to a bunch of different situations. It's a unique style of communication that is emotional, relational, and in its own ways, persuasive.
In my work with clients, communication skills comes up all the time. So one day I decided, hey, I'm gonna write down a guide for my clients, maybe make it a page or two, but I just kept writing and writing eventually to the point where I'm actually writing a book on this because I think it is so important. So I really wanna bring these communication skills to you as cadre viewers in a series so that you could learn about all the principles of communication and apply them to your own lives. I decided this isn't gonna be a five or 10 part series.
This is gonna be ongoing. I'm gonna keep adding videos to this series because there's always things to learn and I'm constantly learning as well. So I wanna give you those lessons as they come up in real time. Not only are we gonna learn the concepts, but a bunch of different stories that involve communication so that you can take these and once again apply them to whatever situation you're in. In this series, we're gonna learn about a lot of different things. For example, relationship, lock and behaviors.
These are things that we do that inadvertently cause our relationships to suffer and not be as healthy. We're also gonna learn about a variety of skills of how to disarm people and lower their walls so that we could have a more healthy and productive exchange. I'm also gonna tell different stories and anecdotes such as different public figures who I think communicate the best and what we could learn from them. There's so many other elements to communication that we don't really think about things like nonverbal communication.
Also the importance of the relationship itself and how we can build rapport with others. So keep your eyes open because we're gonna create ongoing content and I'm even gonna invite some of my other cadre creators to add their experience and expertise in this area. And remember, if you could conquer language, you can more effectively master the world around you.
