It's time for a conversation revival! Conversation is getting harder. We're feeling more isolated. Loneliness is becoming an epidemic. The Six Conversations reflects one of the deepest passions of Dr. Heather Holleman's heart: to connect people in loving community. How can I foster meaningful connection with others? Why doesn't anyone ever ask meaningful questions? If my personal happiness depends upon having warm relationships--like all the research shows--how can I become a better conversationalist and create connection? Heather's work demonstrates how we can develop authentic community by changing our relational mindsets to believe the best about others, to express concern about their lives, and to share our own. Heather shows us how to embrace the Four Mindsets of a Loving Conversation and the Three Fresh Goals for Conversation. Readers will be equipped with effective questions, self-assessments, and action steps to immediately implement in any situation--both personally and professionally.
