What drew you to Nonviolent Communication? In this touching reflection, Mary Mackenzie shares the moment that first lit her up with hope. In her very first class, she was asked to reflect on what she truly wanted in life—and realized there was a growing gap between her dreams and her actions. NVC offered a path forward: a way to identify core needs and align strategies with what really matters. This heartfelt story reminds us that transformation begins not with blame, but with awareness, compassion, and choice.
