Listen "Relationships Are a Tricky Business"
Episode Synopsis
Host Jon Harris engages in a dynamic conversation with his colleagues from the Mid South branch of Fortune Management, Carrie Cahill and Jocelyn Jeffries. Together, they discuss how ego affects communication, our varying discomfort thresholds, and the concept of vulnerability. The guests expand on these issues to better understand effective communication strategies, primarily in relationships.
The guests dive deep into why relationships between men and women can be difficult. By dissecting a recent argument Jon had with his wife, Carrie and Jocelyn give valuable insight into how men can emote with higher emotional intelligence. By paying attention to tone and body language and showing a willingness to be vulnerable, men can show women they care and are willing to grow within their relationships.
Tune into this week’s episode of the Real Dental Podcast for an insightful conversation on communicating with women. Learn more about the purpose of tonality, how to build our emotional muscles, and how to make your loved ones feel like a priority even when life gets busy.
Quotes
• “We tend to assume things are operating at our threshold of discomfort, but our personal discomfort doesn't match somebody else's. Theirs might be lower or higher. They label things differently. They filter that information differently.” (13:21 - 13:36 | Carrie)
• “Tonality has a purpose. The purpose is to let the other person know whether the emotion or the intention behind the words is positive or negative.” (15:55 - 16:05 | Jon)
• “The tonality is a lot more important than words. Words are 7%, tonality is 36% or something, and your body language is the most. So, the wording that you use is the least important part, which is why you have to bring emotion into it.” (35:59 - 36:20 | Jocelyn)
• “If you're going to prioritize the relationship, that means you have to look for that place to say, ‘Oh, I've got a 10-minute break, want to go out for a walk?’ Or, ‘I’ve got a 10-minute break, want to grab a coffee?” Or whatever it is that you can just spend that quality time with that person, which shows that person that they're the biggest priority.” (52:37 - 52:59 | Carrie)
