Going nude creates success [FREE webinar alert ⏰]

Quick question: How do you feel about conflict?

Okay, a follow-up question: Do you feel confident going into conflict?

If you’re like most of us, you don’t feel confident or courageous in conflict. Far from it.

It probably feels more like doing battle in an arena. Exposed. Risky. Uncertain and often uncomfortable (maybe even anxiety-creating, frustrating or hurtful).

What are we so afraid of? Our fear about conflict tends to fall into these main categories:

• The fear of conflict overall - disagreement doesn’t feel happy,
• The fear of not being able to cope, and
• The fear of not being successful ie at our best.

Sound familiar?

Most of us naturally avoid it, hoping it just goes away (*raises hand*). Spoiler alert: never works.

Avoidance as a “tactic”, can actually make it worse because:

• We’re not at our best when working from a base of fear and avoidance, we react instead of respond…
• The issue festers (like an infected wound, it grows — not pretty 🩹😬)
• Our relationship and trust with the other party (and with ourselves) suffers.

The good news is that there’s a solution beyond all this with practical tools that can help you live, and lead, your bravest life — even in conflict. So, here’s what I’m here to tell you:

Conflict can be positive 🌺

Yes, I said it. And I mean it.

Conflict doesn’t have to be a full-blown battle. With the right strategies and tools, we can transform conflict into opportunities for learning and growth.

To become successful in the conflict arena, we need to do something really important before we step in. And it’s something that goes against all instinct. We need to take off our “armour”. We can enter only with our values and sense of integrity on board.

To enter naked.

Sounds easy, right?

(I can hear you laughing even as I write this).

But then I’ve got something to offer that I know will help.
