Episode Synopsis
In this episode of the Conflict Skills Podcast, host Simon Goode explores the ways people can unintentionally invite unnecessary conflict into their lives, drawing on both personal experiences and the story of a neighbor’s altercation. Simon outlines three main strategies to avoid such conflicts: learning to pause and prioritize, recognizing it's not your job to correct others, and not taking others’ actions too personally. He also shares practical mindfulness techniques and encourages reflection to help listeners break the cycle of reactive conflict.TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 Neighbor's Frequent Conflicts06:31 Navigating Conflict and Prioritization08:34 "Breath Control to Manage Conflict"11:28 Choosing Silence Over Conflict15:47 Managing Automatic ReactionsClick here to send me a quick message via FanMailSupport the showThank you so much for listening!
