CNVC Certified Trainer Miki Kashtan shares a tip on holding a group's needs while empathizing with a single person in the group.

Human suffering and challenges often have their source in the social systems in which we live… We’ve known this since the 1960s. The question is: how might we use this knowledge in ways that support healing ourselves — and others? Join Miki for this powerful three-day intensive and find out. You’ll be delving into ways of overcoming modern patriarchal socialization, reclaiming humanity’s interdependence, and exploring how to move beyond the impact of social location and step into healing.

Listen in as Roxy Manning and Mary Mackenzie introduce NVC… share information on the dynamics of identity in social change movements… and demonstrate through role playing how NVC grows connection.

You may wonder how much difficult times influenced your current life choices. How different would you be if you weren’t under the influence of past shame, loss, disappointment, betrayal and abandonment?

Do you ever feel worried or uncomfortable about conversations around domination and power, or feel afraid of saying the wrong thing? Are you a trainer, facilitator, teacher, or a leader who wants tools for inviting greater diversity and inclusion in your work? Sign up for Roxy and Martha’s richly transformative course and learn how to: 1) cultivate behaviors that foster inclusion and partner-based relationships; 2) develop ease when connecting across differences; 3) expand your capacity for recognizing micro-aggressions, fragility, historical patterns — and so much more.

Whether you’re an “official” leader or not, you can be part of making life work for everyone, because leadership isn’t always about the position you hold. If you’re a homemaker, CEO, spiritual leader, board member, parent, manager, volunteer, etc. – YOU are in a position of leadership. And whatever your challenges may be, this program will give you the opportunity to approach life from the driver’s seat, able to respond to what life presents with heartfelt care for all.

Ever wondered how to balance everyone’s needs when leading a group? Or struggled to format a Practice or Leaderful Group? Mary offers insightful and helpful answers to these questions and more.
