Episode 20 – Making Relationships Effortless! – Building Better Relationships at Home and Work with Angela and Patti (Podcast)

In podcast Episode 20 – Making Relationships Effortless! We share examples that stop relationships from being effortless and recommend changing those habits to welcome effortless relationships, whether in the workplace or home life.  To listen to the full podcast episode, click below:

Here are some highlights of the episode:

Angela—Patti, when I was dancing with a group in the early 2000s, we used to explore effortless movement. We always knew when things just flowed, and we would be amazed.

Then we found we couldn’t repeat that effortlessness because we started thinking about the movement instead of feeling it. We asked what habits as humans we have that make us drop out of going with the flow. And we discovered the habits of being and thinking that interrupt our heart or force the heart to be something it’s not because we think we should be a certain way.

Angela – What I’ve learnt about effortless relationships is from the Einstein statement:

“We can’t solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.”

Patti – How to Break Bad Work Behaviors:

❤️ Identify the behavior or action

❤️ Decide to stop

❤️ Replace the habit with something positive

Angela—Making things effortless is enhanced by not coming from old habits of thinking. Old habits of thought make things repetitive and usually stuck or fixed. Instead, you want to approach things sideways, ask questions that take a person to a different topic or a different way of looking at a topic.

Podcast Episode 11 – Tips and Tricks When Working With Someone You Don’t Like!

Angela and Patti share communication tips on how to stay in a job and manage complicated relationships.  How do you ask yourself questions to determine how to manage your emotions?  To listen to the full podcast episode, click below:

What does this meme tell you?

Take a look at yourself.  
Is the relationship problem really with you?  
What is it about this person that triggers you?  
Is it past behavior? Do they remind you of someone?  Do they remind you of something you don’t like within yourself?

Angela: Is this a group issue, or is it just for you? Do others in the workplace share your issue? This points to something missing in the group environment.

Use the PAUSE and REFLECT Technique
PAUSE for three to five seconds before responding.  This gives you time to change your response or not respond at all.

What if you receive a nasty passive/aggressive email from your boss or coworker?  
Before responding to the email, write out your response.  Please don’t send it!  Walk away for a while.  Sleep on it, if you don’t have to respond within the same day.  Then rewrite it when you have calmed down.  Have someone else read it that you trust to help tone it down before hitting the send button. 

What to consider:

Should I stay at my current employment or move on?

Make a list of “why to stay” and “why to go”.  Be upfront and honest. No holding back from the truth of the matter! Look at which column has the most reasons?  Make your decision from there.  Is there a good reason to stay?  Or reasons to leave.
