an invisible one for what's not said."

What they're saying...
Thank you for providing me with these tools and for the guidance in learning, practicing and implementing them. They have been nothing short of transformative
within our family.
~ Dionne Deschenne, Mother of four
I’ve started to use this—it works. It really helps to clear hostility and disconnection between inmates, making things flow a lot easier. If I'd known about this before,
I wouldn't be in here.
~ Inmate, Washington State Corrections
This practice has changed how I teach: when dealing with negative behavior, I look for the needs...awareness of this alone is empowering as it then invites
a reflection on meeting the needs.
~ Jim Murray, High School Teacher
In my 14 years of education I have not seen anything work this well in improving communication, expanding an understanding of others, and reducing bullying and harassment in a
public school setting.
~ Jim A. Betteley, K-12 Principal
What a revolution we could have in our world if these simple tools were given to children who, unlike adults, have not spent years learning poor communication skills. These skills are just as important
as math, reading, etc.
~ Jane Hall-Lazelle, Business Owner
I signed up to develop my skills in listening to others. What surprised me was how much the process enhanced my ability to hear what is going on in me, which, in turn, has helped me to connect with others
at a deeper level.
