Relationship Skills

Communicating clearly, repairing quickly, and giving without emptying out.

When this skill is strong

• You can disagree and still keep the conversation respectful.
• You repair soon after something lands badly.
• You ask for what you need without blaming anyone.

Signs it is asking for attention

• Hard conversations wait until the tension is large.
• You overgive or fix everyone, then feel resentful or drained.
• Working in a team gets hard when preferences differ.

Practices to try this week

• Make one clear ask: need + reason + timing.
• Repair within 24 hours: say what happened, how it landed, and what you will try next time.
• Before you say yes, ask yourself: 'Am I giving this freely, or out of fear of letting someone down?'
