Yvette Erasmus, NVC Trainer:
How do you protect yourself while staying as connected as possible with others? How can you effectively communicate your limits and boundaries in clear, confident, and compassionate ways that actually enhance and strengthen your relationships?

This will help you understand the differences between demands, ultimatums, limits, boundaries, and agreements as you learn how to talk about your internal boundaries before they become painful issues in your relationships.
