David Bradford and Carole Robin taught interpersonal skills to MBA candidates for a combined 75 years in their legendary Stanford Graduate School of Business course Interpersonal Dynamics (affectionately known to generations of students as 'Touchy Feely') and have coached and consulted to hundreds of executives for decades. In Connect, they show listeners how to take their relationships from shallow to exceptional, along the way offering time-tested strategies for giving feedback, negotiating boundaries and working through disagreements.

In the journey of life, the absence of boundaries is like a candle burning from both ends – you sacrifice your light for others time and time again, gradually becoming dimmer until your light is extinguished…ultimately losing yourself. But it doesn’t have to be this way… Imagine creating a bridge that upholds your self-worth without compromising connections. A bridge that ensures your space is respected, valued, and harmonious. This guide serves as an invitation for you to slow down, take ownership of your life, and find your freedom!

Discover the power of self-love, and learn how to set healthy boundaries – without feeling guilty. Do you ever wonder what it would be like if the people you care about respected your personal space? Do you wish that there was an easy way to say “No” every time you don’t want to say “Yes”? If this is you, then you’ve probably had moments of trying to please others – often, to your own detriment.

Too often, we bring our own assumptions and agendas to our conversations with others. It is common to feel that we already know the ‘right’ way of thinking about something, so, when people disagree or promote conflicting ideas, we might not be really interested in listening to them. We may dial down our level of concentration or tune out altogether. The unspoken assumption is, why should we invest in hearing their perspective when we already know they are wrong?

Shyness, anxiety, fear, and low self-esteem in children are more common than ever before. The isolation, social distancing, and masking of our children have resulted in many becoming withdrawn, lacking friends, and victims of bullying.

Seven in ten parents say children’s post-pandemic social skills have declined! But there are things you can do as a parent to empower your child with absolute and effortless confidence!
