Yeah.
20:31
Right? And then it's a soft conversation.
20:35
So the facilitator watches the language of everyone so that it's kind.
20:41
Because there's no need to call each other names.
20:44
There's no need to escalate into defensiveness.
20:47
And then we take turns bringing up our topic.
20:50
So, for example, my topic of last week was I love to be witnessed.

Yeah.
21:36
Mm-hmm.
21:37
Another hack to my brain I can offer, because I am...
21:41
I mean, I, I've talked to people who are antisemitic, who told me to, who hate women and have different opinions about strong women than I would like to, to, to build the world for my daughter.
21:52
So I have been many times in situations where I'm deeply triggered by somebody else's values.
21:59
And still, if I'm not able to offer them my full presence and my open mind, it's better for me not to have that conversation.
22:08
Because if I talk to them while preparing my answer in my head-

[laughs]
23:53
And that over and over again, the more I travel, the more I work with people, I can reassure them that the more they face the conflicts and have those difficult conversations, the better their relationships become and the better they'll get at it.
22:06
Mm.
22:06
Anger is an very important information.
22:09
And so the more we show to people our anger and we translate it to people, the better you are going to feel, more you're going to feel seen.
22:19
So let's imagine you got upset in a conversation because somebody said something that is unacceptable to you, or they crossed your boundary, right? Like, anger usually is, there is a good reason for it.
22:30
What I would do when I get angry, I would be, "Okay, I am feeling extremely angry right now.
22:36
It's hard for me to talk.
22:37
Can we talk about this?" Because I'm super curious about my anger.
