Welcome to today's episode of the Lindsay Elmore show. Today's show is all about conflict.

We all have it. We've all been in fights with our spouses, with our children, with our parents,

with our friends. But how do we become better at communicating even amidst conflict? First up today, I am going to be speaking

with Jonathan Miller, who helps people to become more powerful in their communication techniques

when they are in conflict. After that, I will share with you some of the

things that I learned about a book that really changed my life called Crucial Conversations

because I faced a moment where I had a choice, either get better or stay exactly where I am.

And I knew exactly where I was was not the right place to be because I was constantly assaulted

with conflict. Let's get to the show. Welcome to the Lindsay Elmore Show, a podcast that helps

you find fulfillment amidst chaos. On this show, I interview thought leaders, doctors, creatives,

spiritual gurus, and game changers who inspire you to pursue your dreams, overcome obstacles,

and leave your mark.

Jonathan Miller is a speaker, facilitator, and leadership coach who helps successful people become more powerful in the face of conflict.

He believes in the power of being able to hone your

communication skills to better deal with conflicts and also transform people into powerful

partners that serve both our businesses and our lives. His programs draw heavily

on his extensive training in communication, including nonviolent communication, the Harvard

Negotiation Project, and Landmark Worldwide, and so many more. He has also been heavily influenced by his own Vapasana meditation practice, of which he

has spent more than 2,000 hours in silent Vapasana practice.

Our conversation today is so enlightening in this moment where we're facing some

challenges that were perhaps unexpected and how we can become better at dealing with conflict.

Jonathan Miller, welcome to the Lindsay Elmore show.
