4 Barriers to good communication


We all want to be good at communication and we know how we want to communicate but sometimes things just get in the way.


In this episode, I share the 4 barriers that I see again and again that get in the way of good communication:

  1. A lack of skilss
  2. Triggered parts
  3. Lack of unity
  4. Awareness


That last one is a really important one. You can't change anything if you are not aware that it is a problem or that you are doing something that is aggravating things. I recommend my online course, The 5 Big Communication Mistakes that couples make and how to avoid them. You can check it out here. nicolemathieson.com/courses/big-communication-mistakes/
