Description
‘Raising a human being is breathtakingly difficult. It’s one of the most complex, most humbling, most loving things a person can do.’ Then, just as we think we know our children, everything changes.
The teenage years give way to young adulthood. Conversations become more complicated. Advice can be met with silence, frustration or distance. How do we stay close whilst learning to let go?
In Dare to Listen, psychotherapist, author and difficult conversations specialist Eve Stanway draws on more than twenty-five years of experience, blending neuroscience, psychology, memoir and real-life stories with practical tools for navigating this extraordinary transition.
Through her LISTEN, SPEAK, LEAD framework and Magic Three: Clarify, Communicate, Correct, Eve shows you how to understand what may lie beneath your young adult’s words and behaviour, manage your own emotional responses, communicate without increasing defensiveness, and repair connection when things go wrong.
Whether your relationship feels close, strained or somewhere in between, Dare to Listen will help you approach the conversations that matter with greater confidence, curiosity and hope.
Because the conversations we have today shape the relationships we carry for a lifetime.
