Today we talk to Nadia Odunayo about "Nonviolent Communication", a way to communicate that honestly addresses issues, explaining how you feel without harming the other person, and getting everybody to the point where they feel better about the situation and have a clear path to move forward. Nadia gives examples of how she uses nonviolent communication in her day-to-day life, and she tries to coach me to improve my own skills. By focusing on communication your needs and not assuming anything about others, you can make difficult discussions less difficult. </p> <h2>Notes</h2> <p>01:47 - Nonviolent Communication</p> <ul> <li><p>Nadia’s Talk: <a href="https://brightonruby.com/2017/this-code-sucks-a-story-about-non-violent-communication-nadia-odunayo/" rel="nofollow">This Code Sucks: A Story About Nonviolent Communication</a> </p></li> <li><p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Nonviolent-Communication-Language-Marshall-Rosenberg/dp/1892005034" rel="nofollow">Nonviolent Communication: A Language of Life by Marshall B.
