Understanding your own communication lens is part of building that awareness and doing the work of you. Noticing when and why communication breaks down is also important. We can also assume the way we are wired to communicate is how others are wired. This can lead to misunderstandings – when I subconsciously assume that you are motivated by the same things that I am. OR that you instinctually listen for the same things that I do to ensure clarity, control, safety, or connection.  This episode is about understanding your own communication patterns so they don't derail your message or your relationships. Episode topics: Words are only part of the message — tone, energy, pacing, and assumptions are all part of communication. Misunderstandings in communication erode trust and connection. We need to see that conscious communication is the bridge.Two helpful layers from the Enneagram model to recognize communication patterns:  Core Type | Center of Intelligence – The lens you filter the world through and how you take in information.Instinctual Drive – Self-preservation, social, or sexual (one-on-one) instinct that determines your focus in interactions – what you’re most attuned to How each Center and Instinct approaches communication, listens for, and common misunderstandings by type. Coaching Prompts: What is the general theme that my communication leads with? What am listening carefully for and maybe distracted by when others are communicating? What communication pattern can I shift to ensure others hear and understand me? Resources | Links: Integrative Enneagram: Communication Styles of the 9 TypesImage of the Ladder of InferenceThe Grow Effect Coaching Model Instagram | The Work of YouInstagram | Grow CollectiveWebsite | The Work of YouWebsite | Grow Collective
