Kelly Bryson, Certified NVC Trainer:
Kelly Bryson, CNVC Certified Trainer who is especially known for his skill in teaching people how to live authentically, focuses this audio on honesty: how to express what you're most afraid to say, when honesty is the best choice to support connection and how to employ "naked" honesty. He explains that transparency is a practice in self-acceptance and the outcome of living in integrity with yourself.
By walking participants through an exercise to express what they're afraid to say, Kelly teaches you how to give voice to the "elephant in your living room." He further clarifies why sharing your opinion won't get through to other people nearly as deeply as sharing your "naked" honesty, and he acknowledges potential moments when transparency detracts from connection.
