How do we invite people in a very wonderful way to communicate with us in a way that they feel comfortable with? And I think this is a really important concept because there's so much of us have ways of speaking and we're used to people responding and having questions or engaging with us. And then there's people who just don't do that. And so we need to actually modulate how we communicate so that we can become more attractive communicators.
In the latest episode of Coming Up for Air, the hosts Laurie McDougall, Kayla Solomon, and Dominique Simone Levine delve into the challenges faced by families dealing with a loved one's addiction when limited contact is the only option. They explore the importance of finding simple ways to stay connected, using humour, and fostering communication to navigate the unknown. The episode provides valuable insights and strategies to help families maintain relationships with their loved ones despite the distance and uncertainty.
