Liv Larsson, Certified NVC Trainer:
In this compelling interview with Liv Larsson, CNVC Certified Trainer from Sweden, the NVC concept of enemy images — how they develop, what they represent and how they affect our relationships with others and self — is explored. At the end of the audio, Liv tells a story about a man who lost his axe and believes his neighbor's son stole it to illustrate how our view of someone changes when we harbor an enemy image or if we don’t harbor an enemy image. If you struggle with judgments of others or yourself and you’d like relief from this pattern, this interview is well worth six minutes of your time!
